More Than Beautiful

作曲 : Lana Del Rey
编曲 : Lana Del Rey
So here with Lana Del Rey,and I have a whole bunch of fan questions.
They've just flooded my inbox right, and I just have to ask.
But before that I need to ask a personal question.You have such a beautiful smile.
Thank you.
But you don't really smile in your photos and your videos.Is there a reason for that?
Well, I just find that more of like a contemplative person, and so I actually am really happy.
But i find when I'm thinking most of the time, and so i just doesn't really lend to a smile.
But I actually no one ever asked me to smile on my pictures.They want me the same said.
So it's kind of always a sad undertone.
Okay, so this is a question from shi yun,Can lana tell us how you keep your hair so beautiful and smooth?
My hair is so beautiful and smooth.I have my good friend Anna comes with me to all my shows, and she uses a Iot of shemira products and lots of oil.
And yeah, that's pretty much it really.
Okay.One here from Jelly Gotlip.I hope I could get your name right.(Sorry,I hope so)
Nicest thing a fan has ever done for you that made you smile.
My fans are so nice to me all the time, like when I got to the airport in singapore, they bought me bouquets of roses and orchids.
A Iot of people write the nicest notes and tell me about what they been thinking when they're listening to the music,
And so generally the fans are pretty much a lot like me,and that's kind of just what they write to me about in the letters.Just that they feel similar.
Ok, one here from Samantha Chan, wants to ask lana what she's gonna do with a “Die Young” tattoo if she gets to live old.
That's a really good question.
Well, I decided that I would just use it as an inspiration to live every day like it was my last day,
Even if I keep on going and so it's more of just an inspiration to stay young in my mind, even when I feel tired and old.
Okay, one here from Deborah Oliver.This is, I think, from brazil she's a huge fan of yours.What is the meaning of reason behind the word “paradise?”
The word paradise for you, since you've been using it often in lyrics named for the new album and your tattoo.
For me, every so often,I find a word or a place that really speaks to me.
So certain words, I mean, I believe words are sacred.
They're the one thing that translates across us,the spectrums of humanity.
So I believe in the power of really loving words or really, in my case, I love really tropical words or kind of words that suggest heavenly after life,
like heaven or paradise or so, so I just really love words that have an exotic ring to it.
And I kind of try and incorporate it into my music in hopes of manifesting my actual surroundings to kind of,be as beautiful as those words.
Pineapple or coconut, they're exotic.
Okay, one of from Sierra Dodo, you once said that you would eat spaghetti for dinner every night.
I know Sierra.
You know her?
I do.
What sauce would you like to have with it?
I only have the same sauce every night.
It's plain tomato.Yeah, plain tomato sauce, so it's good.
The new share Priya wants to ask, why did you change your name from Lizzy Grant to Lana Del Rey?
Because I wanted to have a name that was as beautiful as the music I was going to make.
So did you not think that Lizzy Grant was a beautiful name?
It just never personally spoke to me.
Yeah, for me,it just didn't really feel like it was mine.Yeah, I didn't feel like, yeah, I didn't feel like it belonged to me.
I kind of, yeah, I kind of decided that I would be the one who decided what my name was,and I would decide where I lived and I would decide what I would do,and i just never deny my creative urges.
So you know, when it comes to my short videos or the record, I just have a really strong instinct.
That's great, and Cairo,What inspires you to make music videos that seems like it's from the 70s, zero?
I think because I really am inspired by the texture that film used to have instead of like a new digital empty atmosphere, things end up looking vintage when I do them,
Because I always use film to film the videos cause I just believe in the quality of having a physical conduct between.
What you're shooting and what gets translated, so I just really love texture.The way if you can record to tape.It's also in a better mechanism,yeah.
So are you gonna do what Dave Grohl has done with Food Fighters recording on an eight track in a basement.
Probably only just for my personal records.Yeah, only for fun.
A Iot of work to record to a chat,poor track .
Okay, everybody seems to want to know this.
Okay, are you ever gonna be coming to singapore?That is the most common question.
We're we're definitely talking about next summer, but I hope we get here sooner because since I've gotten here,
I've really gotten a better understanding of how many amazing people, so I really hope so.
Okay, so it's gonna be a full concert.
Yeah, definitely.
Okay, and you're collaboration with Lady gaga.
Is it gonna go beyond like a video collaboration?
Are you gonna be doing music and all that ?Come on!
I don't think there is a collaboration.
You ever not gonna work together?
I don't,I don't know.We haven't spoken.Yeah,we haven't spoken.
So i think she's probably busy making her record.
I don't think she,I don't think that's on her agenda.
Okay, if you could work with someone who would you work with,dead or alive？
Dead or alive.Well, I love the king,love Elvis.
And then,yeah,I loved Frank Sinatra as well，so I don't know,probably those two.
All right ,thank you so much lana.
