Lana Del Rey seems to be bothering everybody because she allegedly remade herself from a folk singing, girl-next-door type into an electro-urban kitty cat on the prowl (of course I like her), and they feel she is inauthentic.

I am comfortable performing now. I love it!

There's even more stuff that I'd like to release, but I'm scared to, that's really, um, nerdy... not nerdy in a good way. Like, silly.

Picture being forced to talk endlessly about your feelings and listen and care when what you needed was just to get something done.

What does it mean when something changes how it's always been?

Now, in music, it seems more like the popular crowd suppresses anyone who is different.

You have to do what you need to do as an artist. You have to have that courage.
