Nurture Yourself - Listen to Lana Del Rey


Whatever your tastes in music, I can't imagine any music lover not being taken aback by Lana Del Rey's hauntingly gorgeous voice.  This 25 year-old New Yorker is somewhere between Feist and Adele, but has her own unique, soulful sound.  Quick trivia: Lana Del Rey's name is a combination of old Hollywood actress Lana Turner and the Ford Del Rey (her real name is Elizabeth Grant).  When I saw the incredibly beautiful video for her song "Video Games" on MTVU (which she directed), I was hooked.  She has two singles (Video Games and Blue Jeans) now available on itunes.  Turn up your volume and listen.

This is a rich and haunting song. I'm always looking for great female vocals. Yes, Feist and Adele with Angelina looks! Have you heard of the Noisettes? Try: Never Forget You. Thanks for sharing.
Cheers, Theresa
