  • Haters are gonna hate. The re­al­i­ty for an artist is that not ev­ery­one is go­ing to love what you make. Not ev­ery­body is go­ing to un­der­stand where you are com­ing from. Not ev­ery­one will give you the ben­e­fit of the doubt when doubt is ram­pant. In our pre-​pack­aged world we haven't been ex­posed to the growth of an artist. We can't let some­one grow, can we? It's not good enough that the artist is smart, in­sight­ful and mes­mer­iz­ing. That artist should not miss the mark AT ALL. The artist should not have anx­i­ety or be ner­vous about the mas­sive steps that con­front and car­ry her for­ward in­to an un­known world of fast-​paced scruti­ny and lim­it­less judge­ment. Lana Del Rey is a beau­ti­ful, shy and in­tri­cate hu­man be­ing with a mean­ing­ful and sul­try voice that con­nects both emo­tion­al­ly and vis­cer­al­ly. Her style is im­pec­ca­ble and her pres­ence res­onates with both cu­rios­i­ty and con­fi­dence. The "Video Games" sin­gle that met with so much love pushed her in­to the world. She has on­ly had a few shows to cap­ture her per­son­al melodies in a pub­lic pre­sen­ta­tion that match­es who she is. This is about sup­port­ing artists in their fu­ture. We should be there for their best and most chal­leng­ing mo­ments as they grow in­to their full po­ten­tial. If you have be­lief in the artists you love, then be­lieve that it's about the jour­ney, and not just the des­ti­na­tions. (ie. SNL) Lana Del Rey is a true artist on her way to great­ness and, the truth is, you have to love her a lit­tle to hate her at all.

      This was the first time I heard her talk, first time I ever saw her was the disastrous SNL performance. She became style/vocal influence on me. I miss this Lana but it’s such a sad and juvenile world she was in, I’m glad she’s long been out of it but I never liked any of her stuff after this album.

    • @BloodBathandCake
      @BloodBathandCake Місяць тому

      Not at all. Lana's demeanor was an act in the earlier days. A lot like how Paris Hilton would use the baby voice. Her act is copied from Hope from Mazzy Star and Marilyn Monroe. As for comparison to Dita, Dita and I use to be in the same circles and I've met her a few times in gatherings. Dita, is a not act. Fully her authentic self. And they’’re nothing alike.

    Lana Del Rey's singing and speaking voice is so interesting that I could listen to it for my whole life.

    This interview changed my life forever and I don't know where I would be without Lana. When I hear Lana's music, even her most personal songs (actually especially her most personal songs), I always feel like she knows exactly who I am and I'm so fucking grateful and beyond lucky because I never dreamed I'd ever feel someones company so strongly like that. Somebody who understands me. Every time I listen to her, I feel like I want to create something from it and I'm reminded of how beautiful life is. I look for a piece of her in every friend I make because of how close I feel to her (is this starting to sound creepy? haha). Lana, I love you. I'm always hoping that one day she'll receive all the love I have for her.
    This started as just a comment and turned into a little love letter for Lana

    Her talking voice is so high compared to her singing, I’m so confused

    I've been listening to her songs on high repeat all year and Lana Del Rey's voice still hits the sweet spot for me. I dig her different vocal characterization in her different songs. Hungry for more Lana!

    I think part of what makes her so beautiful, to me, has a lot to do with the graceful way in which she sings, moves and generally holds herself.
    I saw her live earlier this year and there was something very angelic about her.
    I think that's why so many people love her so much, she's a very easy person to both love and hate, she's very hit or miss.
