Lana del Rey is one of my favorite artists. A gorgeous lady and brilliant vocalist. Bad disease, born to die, blue velvet, next to me, kill kill are good examples are fantastic artistic quality

LDR is a decent song writer but based on her many botched live performances she is not ready for the big leagues, she should stick to writing b/c her performance skills are cringe worthy

I can't stand her pouty voice. She sounds like she is singing through duckface.

I love how much they used Forever Young as an orchestral theme in Great Gatsby. I know some people hated the movie, but I think this song was one of the strong points of the movie.

Thanks!
This! It's semi-driving me bonkers.

Love Lana Del Rey. She's one of my favs. I actually like her lyrics because they somehow add some substance to such shallow situations and the music helps too. Take "This Is What Makes Us Girl", it's like "Mean Girls" with serious feels.

I love the majority of her music, but "National Anthem", "Summertime Sadness", "Ride", "Cola" (the fact that this lady managed to make me love a song from the POV of a druggie mistress is amazing), and "Young and Beautiful". I'm obsessed with "Young and Beautiful". The music video highlights her talent of making something so simple so beautiful and she has a taste for aesthetics IMO that works really well.

I like her live performances so she's completely got me as a songwriter, performer, and entertainer.

I don't know about "Tropico"- I've liked most of her music videos so far so it'll be cool to see more- but for some reason I'm not really that excited.

I didn't think cola was about drugs, I just thought it was hilarious. Why do you think it's about drugs?
