1
I think One thing that really affected me was when I was 11.
2
I saw Kurt Cobain singing Heart Shaped Box on MTV.
3
I saw like the video for it.
4
That was something that really struck me.
5
I think when I was younger I knew I wanted to be a singer, but we didn't really know anyone who...
6
was a real singer so I sort of planned on having a more normal life, just doing something else.
7
And then when I was 18, I moved to New York and just started singing at the open mic nights and playing shows down in Williamsburg.
8
My musical influences have stayed the same for a long time.
9
I really like Nirvana.
10
I love Frank Sinatra.
11
Elvis, Bob Dylan.
12
And you know, like Eminem.
13
I like all the greats from every genre, just the masters of every genre.
14
I was working with a composer named Justin Parker and he said
15
that he had a couple of chords that reminded him of me.
16
And so when I heard them, I just, um, felt inspired to write about I don't know,
17
just the same theme that I had been writing about for a while, which was Thank you.
18
just about this guy I had been seeing and the way our relationship was at the time you know,
19
It was just a time in my life when I let go of my own personal career ambitions.
20
And just enjoyed being with him at home when he'd come home from work and play video games.
21
I would write while I watched him.
22
I think when I wrote that song I was just reflecting on
23
Like the sweetness of it but also the fact that there was Something else I was longing for at the same time.
24
It's a 5 minute and 20 second love ballad.
25
There are no drums in it.
26
I mean, it's.. and like, thematically, it's...
27
feels personal to me so I wouldn't have thought that that would be the song that people responded to.
28
Although it's a gift for someone like me because like melodically and semantically,
29
it is a perfect representation of me, so it's nice.
30
I've just been making like moving collages online since I was 17.
31
It's just a passion of mine other than singing.
32
Video games were just one of many and but for some reason I think because the vocal was so clear.
33
People just really responded to it.
34
Image is important but I mean I'm a writer first.
35
I've been a writer since I was very young.
36
and I'm a singer second.
37
Then.. you know the editing and the visuals and the photographs and the movies those time
38
After I feel like video games and blue jeans
39
and born to die are all the like sort of part of a trilogy.
40
I had met this guy and I was really struck by him visually and
41
When it became clear that we couldn't be together anymore, Um...
42
I just knew in my heart that I would still like honor that relationship for a long time, you know, it was just more about like living in the memories of the best of the past.
43
and just honouring that time.
44
And that's sort of what video games and...
45
Born to Die is about as well.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?

Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
