If having a silicone mouth wasn't enough, Elizabeth Grant better known for Lana Del Ray also decided to invade our ears with her pop / sadcore genre and her Hollywood outfits.
I really thought she couldn't have done more for my ears and my eyes but she actually did! She called herself "the gangsta Nancy Sinitra"
Well, Well Lana Del Ray, isn't that a bit pretencious?
That was way too much for me. I hadn't even been able to say anything about the girl yet that I had been surrounded by some sort of scary fans crowd. In other words, my friends were addicted. Addicted in a frightening way. What was it that was making them so crazy about the girl?
I had been listening to few songs but I wasn't too keen. Now I will nevever claim my voice and opinion is the right one, as it is, like I have just said, only my opinion but I thought Lana Del Ray was more of a mounor than an actual singer.
Pardone me there Lana, being "melo" is a great thing in music. But having a "melo" melody, a "melo" voice and a "melo" but I have to admit interesting video for a song called Blue Jeans, well... let's just say it still wasn't making it for me. The best way of dragging me in a depressing spiral that would make me think about the issues of my life, knowing I already do that in the bath anyway is to create this sort of major melo-dramatic atmosphere.
But then it hit me ! Isn't that what I actually like? depressing songs that bring out the melancholy inside you. Well Yes Amy, you f****** do . + My friends have literally been harassing me to listen to her album.
So here it goes. I am sat in my room and I'm listening to Elizabeth again and again. Her tunes are on repeat. I need to find out what it is about her.
I listen to Video Games and there it is. The real power of a pop sadcore melody. She's still mumbling but now, it fits with the melody and actually give a great song you want to listen to over and over.
The album isn't so bad really and you can still find some sort of cheering happy melodie she created. It still talks about murdering some guy though.
But my point is, don't judge so quickly. It might take you to listen to a song a couple of times to really figure out what is good about it. Obviously, liking a song the first time we hearing it is what we're all aiming for and when i say listening few times to the song, I don't mean hearing it on the radio and being brainwashed into thinking that the song is amazing ( aka Lady Gaga, who you hear a hundred times and end up by singing along the songs without noticing) it's more about discovering every bits of the song as you listen to it and enjoying it more and more.
So pardon me for judging too fast, you and your music have this amazing quality: depressing people in a certainly blissful way.
Your turn to judge if you haven't yet.
