Lana del Rey

Named after the great actress Lana Turner and the glamorous car Ford del Rey. Elizabeth Woolridge Grant, aka know as Lana del Rey, surprised everybody recording the amazing Born to die which contains songs such as Blue Jeans, Video Games and the mega hit Born to die. 

LANA DEL REY BORN TO DIE

Lana del Rey was born in New York city but she was raised in a rural place of the State of New York. At 16 she entered a female boarding school in Connecticut although she left it in order to start college in New York City, (she started Metaphysics) soon thereafter Lana del Rey picked her first guitar. When her career was launched her backgrounds were deemed humble but later on, it was revealed that an important record label had been working on so that create such image. Lana del Rey evokes the golden age of the Hollywood actresses singing dark tales of love. As a matter of fact, almost every song in her first album Born to die is about love, tales that are not sweet but painful albeit Lana del Rey conveys a positive attitude.

Furthermore, other songs are about her experiences living in a parking and reaching fame as Lana del Rey was living hard times sleeping in a car and hanging out with bad people. Notwithstanding criticism her skills as a singer and a songwriter are undoubtedly fabulous. Born to die is the most important song in the album, it is the main single. It has a great video clip in which appears the model Bradley Soileau.

When Lana del Rey was a teenager she used to drink a lot, far too much, something she has not done for eight years as she faced great problems concerning to drinking. She had two overly strong relationships which did not end well even though they were both in love, this can be seen on the songs Off the races, National anthem and Blue jeans. Lana del Rey considers herself much more of a songwriter than a singer and she started to write songs at the kindly age of eleven, she was also the leader of her church choir.

Her influences are Eminem, Anthony and the Johnsons, Elvis Presley, Britney Spears and Frank Sinatra. Some has called Lana del Rey the new Nancy Sinatra in a gangsta modern version. Many claim Lana del Rey has destroyed her face because of plastic surgery, they say her lips are too big. However, she has sworn not having had a single operation at all. Indeed, Lana del Rey assures that few years ago she was so broke that ended up living in a car therefore she has never had enough money to spend on plastic surgery. As far as I am concerned, the important thing about Lana del Rey is the  quality of her work. Born to die henceforth all she had done is overlaid with an impressive quality. Likewise, the last song Lana del Rey has done is West Coast as you can see now.
