    Cool pics, thanks for posting them. Miles always looks so friendly and easy-going, always smiling in pics. I think  it's good for Lana to have him around, we know she tends to be (or used to be) a little socially awkward and shy. So, I hope too this collab/ relationship works well for both of them. No promo it's  a good thing if they're producing new songs in the studio. As for the romance thing, he is or was until very recently dating an actress, but  all I dare to say is you never know with these things.

    This sounds great and what many people were already hoping for, after those instagram videos of all 3 of them hanguing out together were leaked . I got into Last Shadow Puppets only these past months though but their first record  is pure gem, very retro 60's brit music, and had very Bond-esque songs there like My mistakes were made for you. You had many other : The Chamber, Black Plant, Meeting Place which is amazing, Calm Like You, Separate and ever Deadly

     

    Their second is very much 70-glam, Italian mafia influenced, just like that Salvatore from Lana song. You can hear those influences in Miracle aligner video. Other songs from their second: aviation, The element of surprise, dracula teeth, dream synopsis, 

     

    I just think this collab it was a matter of timem they work in the same style and are of the same age. Alex Turner also worked for singer-songwriter Alexandra Saviour, has written lyrics for her, if you want to check her music.

    I'm interested in her Montreux gig but tickets are really expensive - 95 €!! (Tickets for Neil Young are 145 € though...)

     

    French festival tickets costs 45 euros only... I'm very tempted... last time she visited Barcelona it cost around 100 !

    Thank you for putting this up! That’s a great interview with some juicy info.

    I’d like to comment on two / three things from an European woman point of view haha

     

     

    Do you mind if I write all this? Because I don’t want to piss off Francesco.

    Oh, he’s going to read this! But he’ll have things to say anyway. He’s very ... aggressive. (Smiles.) And besides, I didn’t say he wasn’t just like me.

     

     

    I thought the right word here  would be “assertive”,  I’d say Francesco being an Italian would fit with a man with strong opinions said in a eloquent way , no-bullshit attitude & not afraid of being squeamish or fussy when saying them  , but at the same time being respectful of others opinions, I wouldn’t read this comment as a man being judgemental in a negative way.

    I'd guess they have lot of fights back at home haha

     

    Do you think having a child would chill you out? Do you want to have kids?

    I’ve thought about it. Really thought about it lately because I’ve just turned 30. I’d love having daughters. But I don’t think it’d be a good idea to have kids with someone who wasn’t ... on the same page.

    Someone who...

    Who isn’t exactly -- like me! (Laughs.) Though maybe it’s best to have kids with someone who’s ... normal.

     

     

    Well, that reads to me quite clearly as Francesco’s refusal to have children with Lana right now. He doesn’t see Lana as a mother now, though it's only my opinion of course.  but if it's true it had to be a hard thing to say for her ,  as a woman that your boyfriend doesn’t want to have a child with you It had to hurt even if it’s only for the time being, it is not a good thing to say for anyone!

     

    Do you want to be in the movies?

    Well... I’m open to it all. James Franco asked me to be in three films that were going to be directed by a Spanish director, and I was hesitant. I think he heard my hesitance and got scared. (…)

     

    That’s the most interesting info !! I haven’t heard anything, but given that she’s being very vague it's hard to say, I doubt it could be with Almodovar though. Maybe with  some director who already has a record for working in America or with American actresses?

    With so little info is hard to say but it will be fun researching for this, “three films that were going to be directed by a Spanish director” ummmhh

     

    I don't know if there's already a thread but we should be making a new one, devoted only to speculation on Lana being offered parts / roles as an actress.

    Thanks for clearing it up.

     

    It should have been clear to most of the folks here that a cover with that title suggests that the actual article shows otherwise

     

    yes, marketing this article or feature it's one thing and the actual content in another. Born To Die and 2012 were the most succesful for lana so it's a natural starting point for foreign country who don't know her as much as her own country I think.

     

    SOOOOOOOOO what's this whole part of Lana about..?

    It's an opinion article written by a non-journalist, but a Spanish writer of serious fiction. 

    He's trying to “explain” her character, her “persona”, it's a reflection on her artistry, her appeal, influences and inspirations...

    Boris Izaguirre writes fiction on gay characters as well as strong, glamourous, rich and beautiful women, so they're a good match. He isn't a music journalist, nor a music reviewer and I'm pretty sure he wouldn't be writing on her if he didn't already love her.

    As I said, this is actually a very complimentary feature on Lana, and I think it's very important that Boris, a famous and well-respected and beloved TV man& writer from Spain, wanted to show his support and vouch for her here.

    So It doens't feature an original interview or photoshop, or Honeymoon review, I'm sorry it's not useful for other audiences, but I do think it's important for Lana in other ways too.

    That's the only thing they talk about her in tje Spanish magazines. I usually buy them if she's in the cover but most of the time the interviews are translated ones from America or opinions of other people talking about her image so…

     

    It is not a fake. The problem is that "Tentaciones" is not a proper magazine, it's just a magazine that comes with "El país" which is a newspaper so it is kinda "cheap".

     

    Hey there, It's actually a very flattering – to -Lana opinion-piece written by Boris Izaguirre, a respected gay writer and a big personality here in Spain, a bit TV showman, very glamour-loving celebrity himself. He loves her and went to her concert in Madrid a few years back, was trying to defend her, even among his fellows jounalists on-their-twentys from the newspaper

     

    So it's definitely not a trashy article or a mess at all, think Lana is definitely a good fitting for Boris, he loves her. 

     

    Also, Tentaciones is a big old mag here, they were a very important cultural reference back in the nineties, they interviewed lots of big artists during Brit-Pop Era such as Oasis, Pj Harvey Blur Pulp and lots more, I have fond memories from reading them back then.
