Lana Del Rey ♫

Laura (from typesofmusic14.blogspot.com) asked us to talk about Lana del Rey. So, let me start:

She was born as Elizabeth Grant in 1985 in New York and her family was very rich and fine-situated. But she started drinking at the age of 14 and her parents sent her to a rehab hospital. A lot of her songs are based in her problems and they explain how was her life with alcohol in it. Her first famous song is called “Video games” and the video clip was made with a web cam.

She has got many tattoos (‘die young’, ‘M’, ‘trust no one’ and ‘paradise’) and her songs have become very famous all around the world. You may know a film called “Malefica”, so, her song “Once upon a dream” is on its soundtrack.

Here comes my opinion: Lana’s songs are usually the perfect ones to lay on your bed, put on your headphones and do nothing but listen. I love her lyrics and I wanna show you a few ones:

-Heaven is a place on Earth with you (Video Games).

-And when he calls, he calls for me and not for you (Shades of cool).

-You said to be cool, but I’m already coolest (National Anthem).

-Pick me up and take me like a vitamin, ‘cause my body’s sweet like sugar venom, oh yeah (Radio).
