When I discovered the Born to Die live sessions on youtube before the album was even released. I knew the moment the first note of Summertime Sadness was playing that it's going to be a hit. It was inevitable. This album is a life-changing experience to everyone.
Carmen, Carmen, staying up til morning
Only seventeen, but she walks the streets so mean
It's alarming truly how disarming you can be
Eating soft ice cream
Coney Island Queen
She says, "You don't want to be like me
Looking for fun, getting high for free."
I'm dying, I'm dying
She says, "You don't want to get this way
Street walk at night, and a star by day."
It's tiring, tiring
I'm not as attached to Ride as I once was (West Coast has replaced if) but it still has a place in my heart. So beautiful and uplifting. The opening monologue. The beautiful production by Rick Rubin. Indian Appropriating before the SJW movement could get big enough to end her.

I remember sending everybody I knew the BTD video when I first saw it. I was so enamored. I had no idea she'd last this long and I'd love her this much in the long run.
Truly a once in a generation talent.
