    I will literally never forget where I was walking, in September 2018, where the lyrics "so, kiss the sky and whisper to Jesus" hit me the hardest, and suddenly, I felt strangely calm. Something in my psyche clicked at that moment, ISTG. This song has brought me comfort ever since--it is almost a mantra for me at this point; something that is both a stabilizer and a propeller for me to feel in control.

    I love this new song.
    Thank you. It doesn’t sound that retro. The last 16 months, things were kind of crazy in the US and in London when I was there. I was just feeling like I wanted a song that made me feel a little more positive when I sang it. And there’s an album that’s going to come out in the spring called “Lust for Life”. (Earliest known mention of the sentence “Lust tor Life”.)
     
    I do. I like him.
    [Tomorrow Never Came] I don’t know if you’ve ever felt this way, but when I wrote it, I felt like it wasn’t really for me. I kept on thinking about who this song was for or who could do it with me. And then, I realized that he would be a good person. Actually, I had listened to his records over the years and I did think it was his vibe, so I played it for him, and he liked it. He rewrote his verse and had extensive notes, down to the mix. And that was the last thing I did, decision-wise.  I haven’t mixed the record, but the fact that ‘Love’ just came out and Sean kind of finished up the record, it felt very meant-to-be.
     
     
    No. I’ve always wanted to work with Max Martin.
    [LFL title track] I felt like it was a big song, but it wasn’t right. I really liked the title. I liked the verse. John Janick was like, “Why don’t we just go over and see what Max Martin thinks?” So, I flew to Sweden and showed him the song. He said that he felt really strongly that the best part was the verse and that he wanted to hear it more than once, so I should think about making it the chorus. So I went back to Rick Nowels’s place the next day and I was like, “Let’s try and make the verse the chorus”, and we did, and it sounded perfect. That’s when I felt like I really wanted to hear Abel sing the chorus. So he came down and he rewrote a little bit of it. But then I was feeling like it was missing a little bit of The Shangri-Las element, so I went back for a fourth time and layered it up with harmonies. Now I’m finally happy with it. [Laughs] But we should do something, soon.

    How do you know or feel when you’re ready for a new album?
    If I’m not occupied with mixing in the end of the creation of an album, I continue to write. For example, two songs from the new album were composed during the finalizing of the predecessor.
     
    How about ‘Lust for Life’?
    Four songs on the album reference Los Angeles, but the mood and aesthetic are definitely not West Coast-like. Songs like ‘Tomorrow Never Came’ and ‘Yosemite’ pick up the sounds of 70s folk.
     
    And if I would have to create an album concept in a day, it would surround the legendary Laurel Canyon particularly.
    comment: life imitates art! Lanz was still working on lust while unconsciously erected her vision of norman… wonder what “get dark” means… that’s a very lust/pop sounding song and was said to be recorded on sept 2017 - 2 months after lust’s release

    2016 was politically pretty heated era. I think the changes were already done in 2016.
     
    The only changes she wanted to do in 2017 was probably because of G-Eazy.
     
    I miss 2016. My best year.

    I genuinely cannot imagine Taylor Swift trying to negotiate with the Iranians and North Koreans
