Lana Del Rey Frolics With Bikers in 'Ride'
Singer premieres 10-minute vision of 'country America used to be'

Lana Del Rey today unveiled a sprawling, cinematic 10-minute video for her new single "Ride." Directed by Anthony Mandler, it's an epic vision of what she says "America used to be," told from the perspective of a character who stumbled across a disconcerting alternate meaning of true freedom.
The video actually premiered Wednesday night at the Aero Theatre in Santa Monica, California, for an audience of dedicated fans and industry types, including producer Rick Rubin, who helmed the song. The screening had the air of a Hollywood event, with the first kids queuing up hours before doors opened and forming a line that eventually stretched around the block in the trendy boutique area of Montana Street.
When Del Rey arrived, fans greeted her with a loud ovation, which she repaid by signing autographs in back of the theater as paparazzi snapped pics and waited along the street.
Del Rey and Mandler introduced the clip, and the singer thanked people who spent the afternoon in line to see her in person. "You make everything that was ever hard completely, completely worth it," she told the throng. "You don't have to be as good as you are, and you just always are. We're not even having a concert, we're just showing the film."
Following the screening, Del Rey and Mandler came back to the front of the theater for a Q&A with audience members. Topics ranged from the possibility of a tour to a girl getting on one knee and asking Del Rey to prom, and receiving a kiss on the cheek for the effort.
When asked about touring plans Del Rey dismissed the idea, proposing instead she and her fans meet every Sunday by the boardwalk for a walk on the beach.
The video is heavy on motorcycle imagery and a romanticized notion of "riding free," something Del Rey describes in the closing sololiquy when her character says, "I believe in the freedom of the open road." In the Q&A, though, she described herself as more of a "professional passenger."
Everyone attending the screening received a copy of the dialogue from the clip, and a brief letter from Del Rey that talked about her collaborators and inspiration for the video.
"Life isn't always easy, but sometimes you're blessed enough to meet your artistic soul mates along the way," she wrote. "After years of staying true to my own artistic visions, I met Anthony Mandler, who shared my love of all things dark and beautiful and understood my passion and revery for the country that America used to be. He's helped me to bring the visions of my imagination to life and tell my different life stories through film . . ."
She wrapped up the note by saying, "The world I've created on the outside is finally as beautiful as it was in my mind's eye when I first began writing and dreaming, and that – as you know – is a very rare thing. And for that I am eternally grateful to all of my wonderful friends and partners in music and at my label for helping a vision flourish and for being a part of something that is now bigger than us."

The video is fucking great. I posted it with the lyrics of the monologue in the previous page. Aaahh if we could get a collab between Eminem and Lana I would be happy.

[babyjane]

^Wow I'm blind. I could have sworn I checked the previous page. I blame my phone

The video is more interesting than anything else being put out today. Lana is really thinking about being conceptual and artistic in her work which is really missing these days. Even if you don't like her music you have to give her respect for that alone.

Oh and I found a new favorite song: http://youtu.be/3zSwUSJbuas

[Guess_Who]

yeah I know that song, it's great, chill and sexy at the same time. I have a folder on my mp3 for Lana's unreleased songs and there are material enough for another album.

Here a few weird ones.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AUYCMQcQ3KA (this one is sexy and the hook is great)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y7XnNFD6 ... re=related

But still my favorite unreleased songs are Serial killer and Damn you.

[babyjane]

^Serial Killer and Damn You are my two favorites from the leaked songs as well. There's a JayZ Remix to Serial Killer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3AfVx-6KAVs

I thought the hook would sound really good on an Eminem song. They're both on Interscope, maybe they'll work together....probably wishful thinking though because he seems to like working with the same people over and over.

Another leak "Live Or Die" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_SUXVwqR1n4 she's rapping lol

She really has to stop singing "cherry pie" that has to be her most overused lyric.

ETA: Geez more leaks

[Guess_Who]

thanks , I didn't know those songs. I will check them when I can.

And yeah, she repeats a lot of words, like the red dress, that is in a lot of songs, and much more, can't remember now...

[Alex2012]

you have to remember all those songs are not really accomplished.

[RoleModel'Est96]

You know who Im really dying for Lana to do a collab with. Brandon Flowers from The Killers. Their vocals on the same track= heaven!

[Guess_Who]

I listened the new leaks yesterday. I love Butterflies and I don't want to go.

And in the french song she says the only sentence I can understand in French.

I just listened live or die, didn't work for me yesterday....I looooooove it...I have it on repeat.

[babyjane]

[Guess_Who]

Just curious with all the leaks we've been getting is anyone going to actually buy the re-release in November? I'm going to buy it anyway just because I support artists I like and I like to have their physical CDs.

I will, tbh I don't have Born to die (the old edition) I just downloaded It from the internet. I was about to buy it when I knew we would have a deluxe edition, so I waited.

No matter how expensive it will be, I will buy It. I like to support the (few) artists I like too. (and I loooove the cover ) But I won't forgive her not have added Serial Killer and Damn you there!

[babyjane]

^Yeah Serial Killer and Damn You are my two favorite leaked tracks. She could have replaced Yayo. I just can't get into that one, she sounds extra dreary lol. Ride has really grown on me.
