Lana Del Rey - RADIO
To me, the sadness of her music goes well beyond an expression of the emotional despair of a generation who think if they surround themselves with the right stuff then they will feel happy. She has internalised it to the extent that she has become the stuff herself. ‘take me like a vitamin’. hahahahaha!
