A lullaby to Hollywood...

Lana del Rey's song "Video Games" seems to be everywhere...my favorite indie station, KCRW, plays it at least 5 times a day.  
Do I like it?...hmm...I'm not sure yet.  The video is a bit bizarre! It's so Valley of the Dolls meets Blade Runner (Blade Runner because of the opening inferno shot) meets Dogtown and Z Boys. Well, I guess Hollywood itself is an outlandish reality for many.  Where did "Lana del Rey" come from?  What do you think, is she singing to the I want to be famous crowd or is it a love song? I think it's a lullaby to Hollywood...


Watching the video, click here...hmm, I can't believe I'm going to admit this, but I think I miss palm trees. . .Montreal doesn't have any!
