A: Haha, oh no. When I eat, I eat a lot of junk food or spaghetti and chocolate cake at the Marmont. But usually, I just keep to my lemonade maple syrup diet :shy:
 
Q: How do you feel about ''Sirens'' leaking?

Welcome to LANALYSIS, where we get real unhealthy in our obsessions and absolutely revel in it.

This is a project I've been maintaining for a while now--Lana + Analysis...get it? The basic purpose is to relate every one of her songs (that's right, every last one of them) to her known and assumed relationships. Not a stone is left unturned. Privacy is violated. The fans rejoice. Mind you, it’s all pure speculation, but ~this is what makes us stans~

It’s pretty long but an interesting read, if I do say so myself. I hope you enjoy it in all it’s updated glory, and I will continue to update as new information is revealed and new songs come out. I will also be adding pictures, sources, etc. Stay tuned!

Let’s get started!



EARLY RELATIONSHIPS (1985 - ~2005)



LOCAL ROCKSTARS (~2005 - 2009)



YOU MADE ME NICE FOR A WHILE (2009 - 2011)



POST-BREAKTHROUGH (2011+)



IN THE LAND OF DISCREPANCIES



ADVANCED LANALYSIS



IN SUMMARY..

Lingering questions…
- Who the fuck is K?
- Who the fuck is Ray?
- Who the fuck is Bill? Is Bill really K? Does Bill matter at all?
- What significance do cars play? She mentions eight in total (white Corvette, white Pontiac, blue Chevy Nova/Chevrolet, Cadillac convertible, Mercedes, pickup truck, Lamborghini, Bugatti Veyron)
- When was she/who was she with in New York City and New Jersey? Ditto LA? Most mysterious and pressing, her time in the South?
- Did she have a fling with Bradley Soileau?
- Did Chris C. matter enough to her for her to write songs about him?

Assumptions Made:
- Lana was a gogo dancer.
- K is a drug dealer/murderer, dead or on death row.
- Jimmy is her ex-fiancé, addicted to cocaine despite a Wikipedia page stressing how healthy he is, associated with Chevrolets.
- Much of Sirens is about completely different relationships.
- She fucked Bradley.
- Mike controlled her career but their relationship wasn’t associated with anything fucked up like drugs or stripping.


Thanks for reading! I crave both your feedback and theories! This remains a forum collaboration and I don't claim to have the final say on Lanalytical manners.

For the sake of believability, I'm always hunting receipts, and currently:
- The interview where she refers to "Yayo" as the prequel to "Video Games"
- The interview where she describes "Video Games" as dealing with mutual sobriety in a relationship--her and her partner both staying clean.
- The interview where she talks about meeting her boyfriend in rehab and being dazzled by his small-scale celebrity.

Well you know, one day Lana just strolls down the street, stressed out, thinking why she can't get focused on finishing her last few assignments to get that big degree in philosophy, daydreaming all day about the two constant thoughts in her head:
car...
men...
car...
men...
car...
men...

Most relevant questions EVER

Jaime and Chuck should totally duet "This is What Makes Us Girls" in honor of that snub for Barrie

One day we will see her vayayyay, I'm telling ya!!!

That's very correct but I don't think Lana would think about it, tbh. When you mention Tut, people automatically think great egyptian ruler and that's what I think Lana meant. We know Lana doesn't make much sense sometimes. Idk, I think it would be a great coincidence that "the king too" would sound so much like "the king tut" when she's talking about Cleopatra. But idk, it could be the king too, i hear both

You used to say that I was beautiful like Cleopatra
But you the King Tut, so I would say it back at ya
 
I think I hear King Tut instead of king too. They sound very similar, but king tut makes more sense

Q: Lana, where are living at the moment?

Or anyone from her family, I mean, she could at least mention them as one.

Or anyone from her family, I mean, she could at least mention them as one.

seriously, her managers ben and ed and no chuck??? wtf?

Or anyone from her family, I mean, she could at least mention them as one.

Unfortunately.

Or anyone from her family, I mean, she could at least mention them as one.

yeah that was exactly my reaction too!

*Barrie...

i kind of hate halloween, i just find it so overrated. i'll just watch horror films with friends. none of my friends like them much though, and literally no horror film scares me, i just don't get phased by them as i know they're not real.. idek

My costume will consist of everything Lanaesque, it will be called "The Go Go Mix".
 
ll dress up with a black sequin bra, black leather skinny pant (yes, just like a slut), an american flag around the waist (I'll wrap myself in if I'm cold), some bling jewelry on my fingers (diamonds, emeralds, ruby, fake but posh looking). I'll get my hair done in a sweet beauty queen style (see the haircut on my avatar), red lipstick and blood red fake nails on. High heels on one hand, a strapless shinny Louis Vuitton clutch on the other. And some flour on the corner of the nose.
 
I'll post pic of them later. hehe

I think we can all agree that Lana Del Rey is better than Porcelain Black in many ways.


 

Better...
-Music/Lyrics
-Voice



-Face
-Style/Image
 
 
Lana Del Rey = the best.






 
 
 

Bradley is a dick, but attractive.

I respect your opinions but I can't help but immediately refute them:
1. Just because she only explicitly names one guy, first and surname, in all the songs she's written doesn't mean she isn't writing about others. LBR, try rhyming something with "Mizrahi". I will point out that she qualified VG, BTD, and BJ as a trilogy, but not a trilogy about the same man. There's a rather lengthy post within expanding on that, if you're open to giving it a look.
2. She's said a lot of damn things, to be honest. The count goes up to two when you consider that she also said "Video Games" is about two different guys. And while "Blue Jeans" may be vague in it's criminal references, Sirens certainly isn't, although I'm interested in hearing you explain how "Now he's in a jail cell for some thirty years now / Is this what you wished, to be serving time?", "K's a friend of mine, I think about him as he does time", and "Last year they decided that his time was up and he got re-tried / Double homicide / Now he's onto death row, not to hang around, though / Is this what you wished, did you wanna die?" are some grand metaphors for Jimmy.
 
I would say that Jimmy was an important guy. But I think they all were--at least, K, Mike, and Jimmy. I'd even agree that a lot of Born to Die is likely about him, but to discredit her long-term relationship with Mike and some glaring, obvious references to prison that totally avoid any subtlety at all just because something she said in an interview is not so wise in these analyses.
 
And I absolutely refuse to incite a race war in this thread, those posts were the epitome of harmless speculation.

Her obsession with her tongue
 

The first time I actually read the tags for a Lana video I saw "SICK" "DOPE" "FRESH" "TO" "DEATH" and I just laughed and in my head, "wow, who are you?". Then I thought about and came to the conclusion that if I could be as cute as her and create such fresh2death videos, I'd do the same thing.

getting drunk downtown and interpretive dancing/twerking it to Lolita and Serial Killer (and various songs) in the car with friends.
 
We all moan - extra loud and erotic when the climax part comes in SK :creepy: We then proceed to have moaning contests
