lana del rey : ride (stream)

my opinion has changed very little about lana del rey since "video games" first landed on the scene. back then, i thought she wrote one of the best songs of the year, and i figured she had to have a few more great ones left in her. then there was the onslaught of buzz and press and backlash regarding former secret musical aliases, fake lips, poor performances, etc. she got bashed pretty good. but throughout all that, i still thought she wrote a great song and probably had more left in her. i just don't think you can write a song "video games" by accident. there has to be some level of talent there. and i had a feeling she would be able to tap that well again. feel like she has with this one.
