Lana Del Rey (September 2011 - November 2012)

Million Dollar Man live
She played a little too much with the tone again, and I laughed at 2:35, but I actually liked it - especially the doodoo-deedeedee-aaaah at the end

Her Spin article is a very good read

^^she's precious, I really like her performances. Even if she doesn't have a perfect voice, doesn't mean she's a bad performer. I like the fact, she's natuaral on the stage.

 

[melfreya]

omg the 2:34 mark! Britney territory! I think she was just being funny

 

[lucy92]

i like her floral pants here (via dailymail) anyone know what they are?

i also think her SNL white gown is the best thing she's ever worn.

I love those trousers too.

AMAZING!!

damn you, ana, for posting all these videos! (and me for clicking on each and every one of them) .. I just 'had to' get me Million Dollar Man! amazing performance.. the way she played with her voice reminded me of the Sin-é bootlegs with Jeff Buckley, actually something she emits in general reminds me of him, I know it may seem like such an outrageous comparison for some, but it's the vulnerability.. maybe a bit of insecurity, and the fact that it seems to disappear and become completely jaw-dropping when they manage to find intimacy in front of an audience. Something also about the image, regular NYC characters built up as an icon of the past (Jeff and his album cover) and the pressure of living up to that that you can perceive when they are in public, and that is expected from the public too I guess.. hard to explain but yeah..

Hope that live version of MDM makes it to mediafire at one point.

I totally agree. Makes it exciting to watch each performance.
And damn me for posting one more video!

MySpace Interview


By the way, if you search on youtube, she also sang "Video Games" and "Born To Die" @ L'album de la semaine. I only posted "Million Dollar Man" because it was my favorite, and we've already seen her singing the other songs many times.

^She looks sooooo good in the video. My love for her grows bigger everyday

 

[Alyssa-K]

Just listened to her whole album, it is pretty good actually. I even like better the songs in the album than the three others that were released

 

[mademoiselle_]

I love Lana's music but it's a little bit annoying that her perfomances live haven't improved... the good thing is that all that buzz of publicity she has is going to keep her on top charts for a while even though it has been said her performance at SNL was one of the worst of SNL live's history

I find her increasing way up rather strange, but then again there's no such thing as bad publicity, she's a perfect example of that

Thank you Tekka. Another great "Million Dollar Man" performance! I'd love to see her singing "Radio".

Rnbjunk Interview in Milan

 

[Wolkfolk]

Such a fascinating young lady
I'm completely obsessed with Born To Die, almost every single track of the album is perfect IMO. I truly hope she goes far because , hype put aside, she clearly has something special.

 

[crimsonlakes]

Her songs have that nostalgic quality that's really addicting. Their perfect mood music.

 

[Squizree]

I only heard her for the first time in the Christian Dior Haute Couture video. Her voice is absolutely glorious. Her songs are good, but I'm more mesmerized by her voice. I just want to listen to it, it's just dense with emotion. There are only a couple of other female singers that have effect on me.
