I bought her album Born to Die a few weeks ago and I have played it loads of times since. I love her voice, although it sounds quite melodramatic and reminds me of images of femme fetales singing in dimly lit, smoke filled dive bars, it is hauntingly beautiful voice. With the popularity of artists like Adele its nice to have another powerful female voice to add to that list.
I know she's had a bit of a bad rep for not singing well live, but I'm hoping that's just nerves and she'll get more comfortable with it in time!
One of my favourite songs off the album is Diet Mountain Dew and although its not the most well liked song on the album, I love it as its more upbeat than some of the others!
Even though its not on the album another of my favourite Lana songs is Kinda Outta Luck. I found it on YouTube after Video Games was released as Lana had posted it on there when she was first starting out. I really hope she releases it on a later album as I'd love it as a single! I love Lana's home-made video for it too:
