I'm not a natural performer o...

I'm not a natural performer or exhibitionist. When I was younger, I hated the focus, and it made me feel strange.

Lana Del Rey 181 quotes

If you are born an artist, yo...

If you are born an artist, you have no choice but to fight to stay an artist.

Lana Del Rey 181 quotes

When I found somebody who I f...

When I found somebody who I fell in love with, it made me feel different than I felt the rest of the day. It was electrifying. That's what inspired the 'Off to the Races' melodies. That's one of the times when you're feeling electrified by someone else and they make you happy to be alive.

Having a simple career as a musician who liked music was good enough for me.

Lana Del Rey 181 quotes

I've been writing since I was...

I've been writing since I was really young, so I considered myself a writer for a really long time.

Lana Del Rey 181 quotes

If you consider the definitio...

If you consider the definition of authenticity, it's saying something and actually doing it. I write my own songs. I made my own videos. I pick my producers. Nothing goes out without my permission. It's all authentic.

When I got to New York City when I was 18, I started playing in clubs in Brooklyn - I have good friends and devoted fans on the underground scene, but we were playing for each other at that point - and that was it.

I made that first record in 2008, alongside the EP, but my label at the time waited three years to release it. They thought maybe someone bigger would buy it, but they didn't, so in the end they just released it themselves.

A lot of the time when I write about the person that I love, I feel like I'm writing about New York.

Lana Del Rey 181 quotes

I have a personal ambition to...

I have a personal ambition to live my life honestly and honor the true love that I've had and also the people I've had around me. I want to stay hopeful, even though I get scared about why we're even alive at all.

When I put out 'Video Games' ...

When I put out 'Video Games' in May 2011, it was a 5:25-minute love song; I was surprised when a lot of people said they were listening to it. I was surprised when it went to the radio, without me even knowing how something like that even happens!

Lana Del Rey 181 quotes

I was always singing but didn't plan on pursuing it seriously. When I got to New York City when I was 18, I started playing in clubs in Brooklyn - I have good friends and devoted fans on the underground scene, but we were playing for each other at that point - and that was it.

I don't really have any gimmicks. I don't actually do anything that's strange. I don't even wear weird things.

Lana Del Rey 181 quotes

I'm a writer first and a sing...

I'm a writer first and a singer second. And then I started editing my own videos when I was 17, so it's a process I've been doing since I was younger.

Lana Del Rey 181 quotes

Stylistically, I love make-up...

Stylistically, I love make-up. I love doing my own make-up and stuff, but clothes-wise, I actually didn't ever really care. Initially the fashion world was more interested in me than the music world, which was strange when I first started singing.

Lana Del Rey 181 quotes

When I was young I felt reall...

When I was young I felt really overwhelmed and confused by the desire not to end up in an office, doing something I didn't believe in.

Lana Del Rey 181 quotes

In New York I pretty much live in diners - I order French Fries, Diet Coke floats and lots of coffee.

Lana Del Rey 181 quotes

I used to wonder if it was God's plan that I should be alone for so much of my life. But I found peace. I found happiness within people and the world.

Lana Del Rey 181 quotes

I knew I wanted to do something creative. I didn't think I'd have the luxury of doing something like that, because I didn't know anyone who had pursued anything they really adored, but I had dreams for singing or writing.

[Could you show us how Lana Del Rey dances in a club?] That would be illegal.
