Lana Del Rey - "Born To Die"

     New artists can burn out before they even get under the bright lights, but I think the light will only get brighter for Elizabeth Grant.  Better known as Lana Del Rey, the 25 year old Lake Placid, NY native has taken Youtube by storm with her "Video Games" single and video released in October and the buzz is only getting bigger.  She just released this video, "Born To Die" and you can see first hand how captivating her voice and looks are.  Lana carries her hipster pin up looks with uber sexiness and her sound is just as confident.   It's been said she calls herself the "gangster Nancy Sinatra".  The video reminds me a lot of Kanye's Power video and of course the Throne reference.  She was just featured in Complex magazine and I see many more in the future, as she's been working on her full-length album.  I'm really liking this video and song and can't wait to hear and see more from her.  The "Video Games" video is below as well.
