Hello Hive Music Gang!
Welcome to another #threetunetuesdaysunday created originally by 
I am a couple of days early (or late) depending on your perspective. But this week I am back with a few tunes from the lovely Lana Del Rey that I couldn't wait til Tuesday to share with you.
I discovered Lana Del Rey many years ago when she first released Summertime Sadness and I remember quite enjoying it at the time. Since then I know she has been quite active with many tunes, but the slowness and slightly depressing sound of Summertime Sadness, Born to Die etc- kept me away from giving her another look.
That is until now, I was doomscrolling on Xwitter and came across a Selma Hayek video with one of her tunes in and it got me hooked again.
Of course that song was Radio and features a great Matrix video which is one of my favorite films, so its a double win situation! Yes I am looking at the woman in the red dress.
Radio - Lana Del Rey
Watching some videos featuring Lana on youtube, there were some questions about if she would be doing a Bond film song, which imo would be great to see her do one. Her style of songs and videos would be a perfect fit, if not actually outshine the Bond franchise.
I was also noticing that Lana seems to have done alot of botox or face fillers which seems to be a growing trend these days. I almost was not recognising her from years ago when I first caught her.
After Radio, my attention also drifted to her probably most played tune according to the youtube stats, Young and Beautiful. One of those reflective type songs I guess.
There are a few fan videos featuring different movies with this as the background music. Not one of her most recent ones, I am surprised I didn't pick this one up a while ago. But it is still good to discover gems that you have missed in the past.
Lana Del Ray - Young and Beautiful
The final tune is another really mellow one with a video with some darker undertones. The song is however really cool and a masterpiece.
All of her videos are pretty cinematic and tell an interesting story related to the songs. I wasn't sure I would want to listen to her music again, but am glad I have rediscovered it.
This week has been pretty stressful and Lana has been my accompaniment to help mellow me out and help my mind to wander from my worries.
