Lana Del Rey

Born to Die

This video was shown to me by a close friend of mine recently. 

Although I do not know much about Lana Del Rey as an artist I love this video. 

I'll say this with the risk of sounding completely melodramatic but- I normally physically and mentally cannot watch music videos like this for reasons that don't really make sense. My closest friends know

that I will literally leave the room, party or restaurant if certain music comes on.

After watching Rihanna's We Found Love for the first time I just about vomited. 

Too close to home for me and put too simply. But this video- I don't know. It's good.

The best part about it is that the concept for the video was created completely by Lana Del Ray.

Although, she did not direct the video she was a large part of its creation and production. That says

a lot about her as an artist in my opinion. The quality, color and dynamic is just GOOD. 

Although the bed scene is a little much for me....

My favorite line? "You like your girls insane."

Ashes and FireBy: Ryan Adams

As he stared past the fire,His hunger to leave well it gnawed his poor heart alive,Her skin smelled like black cherry, blossom perfume, the sail boats they all sailed byand a river she cried.
and the wind was suddenly sweeter than Roosevelt pine,The windows broke out and the cigarette smoke was drifting by,The bums on the bowery were swallowed in the lights as cars rumbled by in the nightscreaming run for your life.
With cool and silvery eyes and a heart that was fit for desire, drowned in a river of tears oh a river she cried left her with a heartmade of ashes and fire.
One day there was a silence and it washed through the town,and there was no reason to speak so no one made a sound,her eyes were indigo and the cats were all Calico and the sail boats they all sailed byand a river she cried.
With cool and silvery eyes and a heart that was fit for desire, drowned in a river of tears oh a river she cried left her with a heartmade of ashes and fire.
Ashes and fire, Ashes and fire, Ashes and fire.



Damn.
