Lana doesn't want a perfectly polished pop sound.

"I actually don't love a glossy production. If I want a bit of that retro feel, like that spring reverb or that Elvis slap, sometimes if you send it to an outside mixer they might try and dry things up a bit and push them really hard on top of the mix so it sounds really pop. And Born to Die did have a slickness to it, but, in general, I have an aversion to things that sound glossy all over--you have to pick and choose."

She's a girl who loves her Ira Glass.

"I didn't find any good music until I was right out of high school, and I think that was just because, coming from the north country, we got country, we got NPR, and we got MTV. "

She regrets making her trailer home public at the beginning of her career.

"Oh, I don't even know if I should have said to anyone that I was living in that trailer in New Jersey but, stupidly, I did this interview from the trailer, in 2008."

Though she's a true Los Angeles girl, Lana isn't afraid of Brexit.

"If I could live anywhere in the world other than LA, I'd live in London. In the back of my mind, I always feel like I could maybe end up there."

She's collaborating for the first time on Lust for Life.

"I did something I haven't ever done, which is not that big of a deal, but I have a couple of collabs on this record."

(She's mentioned before that Sean Lennon and The Weeknd are both featured on the record).
