4 | --->''"When I was starting, I had a vision of being a writer for film and that's what I am doing now. I'm so happy. That will be my happy place. I'd like to stay in one place for a long time."\ |
5 | "I love to take care of the songs – that's my natural place – then, when I get on stage that's not my element. Sometimes I kneel down because I am trembling, or touch the audience because I don't know what else to do. I don't think I'll write another record. What would it say? Everything I wanted to say, I've said already."'' |
6 | *** She also claimed that ''Tropico'' was meant to be a "goodbye project". However, she later [[{{Retcon}} walked this back]] and said it was actually a goodbye to ''Music/BornToDie''. |
7 | ** "White Dress" explores whether her life would be better if she didn't become famous. |
8 | * CreatorBacklash: |
9 | ** Lana reportedly wasn't satisfied with the production of "This Is What Makes Us Girls" and consequently, has never performed it live. |
10 | ** She also stated after the [[Creator/TheWeinsteinCompany 2017 Harvey Weinstein scandal]] that due to "Cola" containing a line referencing him, she would no longer play the song. |

14 | * DyeHard: She's a natural blonde. |
15 | * ReclusiveArtist: Zig-zagged. |
16 | ** On one hand, interviews and appearances were few and far between around the release of ''Ultraviolence''. Lana doesn't mind cancelling an event or seven, either. |
17 | ** However, Lana then came out of her shell, especially around the releases of ''Honeymoon'' and ''Lust for Life'', and starting using her platform more as a means to promote positivity and social action. Some of these messages ended up causing controversy, however, leading her to limit her social media use in September 2021 to a "private" Instagram account named "honeymoon" - and even that can get switched off from time to time. |
18 | * ReleaseDateChange: |
19 | ** ''Chemtrails over the Country Club'' was planned to be released on September 5 2020, then UsefulNotes/COVID19Pandemic-related production issues caused a six month delay to March 19 2021 instead. |

22 | * SimilarlyNamedWorks: ''Lust for Life'' and its TitleTrack have no relation to neither the Music/IggyPop [[Music/LustForLife album]] nor ''its'' TitleTrack. |
23 | * WorkingTitle: A considerable number -- and these are just from her released catalogue, as her unreleased material is too self-referential to list without being exhaustive. |
24 | ** From ''Lana Del Ray'': "Kill Kill" = "The Ocean", "Put Me In A Movie" = "Little Girls", "Raise Me Up" = "Rayse" and "For K (Part 2)" = "Rehab". |
25 | ** From ''Born To Die'': "Without You" = "China Doll" and "Lolita" = "Hey Lolita Hey". |
26 | ** Lana considered the following titles for ''Born To Die'' itself, before that album took its name from its lead single: "G.B.A. (God Bless America)", "Do U Luv Me Yet?", "The Best Of Lana Del Rey" and "The World Is Ours". |
27 | ** "Ultraviolence" for a while had the working title of "Melancholia". |
28 | ** ''Music/NormanFuckingRockwell'' was almost named ''Bird World''. |
29 | ** ''Chemtrails over the Country Club'' was originally given the title ''White Hot Forever''. |
30 | ** ''Blue Banisters'' was renamed from ''Rock Candy Sweet'' just three weeks after the album was announced. |
