06. Blue Jeans - Lana Del Rey (Video game, 2011)

“Wow wow wow” were my first 3 words to describe this song. Granted, it was in consideration of the video that accompanied it, too. Nevertheless, it made me an instant fan, reservation be damned. While I don’t care much for Video Game (her poker hand is too obvious in that one - can you say easy pandering to the video gamers of the internet?), Blue Jeans is a gorgeous flower in full bloom, steeping in epic, tragic emotions that only a persona as big as Lana del Rey - and her sultry pipes - could pull off.

Wow, wow, wow. What the heck is this stunning songstress doing entering the game this late into 2011? Is she going to make it big or is she going to make it big? Her debut can’t come soon enough! I think I made my 50 favourite female vocalists a bit too soon?!
