I think this (and the "cover" of Love is your name) is the best thing Steve did as a solo artist. So stripped and minimalistic, then he put too many musicians and tried to make it flashy as Aerosmith, and he missed out the up close and personal feel of this performance.
Kiss me hard before you go Summertime sadness I just wanted you to know That baby, you the best I got my red dress on tonight Dancin' in the dark, in the pale moonlight Done my hair up real big, beauty queen style High heels off, I'm feelin' alive Oh, my God, I feel it in the air Telephone wires above are sizzlin' like a snare Honey, I'm on fire, I feel it everywhere Nothin' scares me anymore (One, two, three, four) Kiss me hard before you go Summertime sadness I just wanted you to know That baby, you the best I got that summertime, summertime sadness Su-su-summertime, summertime sadness Got that summertime, summertime sadness Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh I'm feelin' electric tonight Cruisin' down the coast, goin' about 99 Got my bad baby by my heavenly side I know if I go, I'll die happy tonight Oh, my God, I feel it in the air Telephone wires above are sizzlin' like a snare Honey, I'm on fire, I feel it everywhere Nothin' scares me anymore (One, two, three, four) Kiss me hard before you go Summertime sadness I just wanted you to know That baby, you the best I got that summertime, summertime sadness Su-su-summertime, summertime sadness Got that summertime, summertime sadness Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh Think I'll miss you forever Like the stars miss the sun in the morning sky Later's better than never Even if you're gone, I'm gonna drive (drive), drive I got that summertime, summertime sadness Su-su-summertime, summertime sadness Got that summertime, summertime sadness Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh Kiss me hard before you go Summertime sadness I just wanted you to know That baby, you the best I got that summertime, summertime sadness Su-su-summertime, summertime sadness Got that summertime, summertime sadness Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
I so love you, and I really love the way you talk. You’re so gentle. No disrespect, I hope you don’t take it that way either with what I’m about to write, but you have a very unique, genuine, nurturing motherly vibe about you. I swear. I love your songs, and you are so talented. Congratulations on your award. ~No one
I never trust Oko, she possibly (in my opinion) sent to kill John Lennon, after he died she owned all his songs copyrights. *Now she is so hungry she owns Imagine (what is this AI made? Actor voice?) She can't barely hold the award and she can't barely hold the reality = OKO IS NOT JOHN LENNON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for aknowledging her. Her lyrics, with their imagery and references (cultural, stylistic, historical, from literature...) have really broaden the world to some of us who haven't had such exposure in our lives. (SFME)
I suppose when you hear the word "first love", you think of a man, or a boy that you're willing to marry. Or even a boy you simply saw a future with. But for me, my first love didn't involve marriage, a wedding ring, or anything of the sort. It was simply just love in its purest form. My first love was Lana Del Rey. As a little girl, I was lost and confused. But meeting Lana Del Rey, I had a lot of light illuminated in my life. I say meet because, it's so rare a celebrity is actually an artist, and reveals herself in such a vulnerable and sincere way. Where even though I never spoke to her personally, my heart is touched by the music she creates and the messages she puts out. The funny thing was, back then, I always thought on the nights I couldn't sleep, I was meant to see a new Instagram post made by her. Call it luck, call it coincidence, but I was right. Oftentimes she would post when I was awake late in the summer nights I loved her. And in spirit, the same thing is happening now. I am not an early bird, but here I am in the morning, the sun hasn't even come up, but I just finished this lovely video, and I feel as if I was meant to see it at exactly the right time. She may never read this, but what ashame that crowd just possibly fails to see and comprehend all her beauty. Her share of her early 20's was exactly what I needed to hear. Being 21 for me is so strange, because you begin to discover yourself, and it is ever so true that when you are honest with yourself, you stand alone. Knowing there is a bright future ahead, but that means you must first live through the unassuming present. So I will keep going in my ways if it is what I must do to see those days. Even if no one presently believes in me, my belief in myself is all I ever needed. And that alone will get me far. One day I will have my own council. And my only friends will no longer just be in the books I read or the songs I listened to. Thank you Lana Del Rey for your beautiful speech. For sharing your mind, even if mine is yet to be heard. I am just a face in the crowd but I will always love you, and I hope you get to know mine one day. I love you.
this is soul-moving to me; captivating, beautiful, sincere, personal - just like the energy lana radiates; i read and swallow every line carefully; appreciate the spirit you've imbued them with 💚 you beautiful soul
@@blupatches3030 Thank you so much for saying this...I had a rough day. I really needed to hear this. Thank you for seeing me. "If you spot it, you got it", most likely, everything you said of me, rings just as true for you as well. ❤️
You're truly authentic, Lana! You're better than anyone of those female artists in your genre. There is a light that never goes out! Don't ever let them take it from you!
