Has a song ever made you cry for no reason? When you hear it do you just stop and listen to each word and close your eyes… Let it take you to another part of the universe… Lana Del Ray’s Young and Beautiful for The Great Gatsby is one of these songs for me. It might be because the movie is special to me or it’s just a song that whether heartbroken or in love it talks to you. I love it. And I never actually put it on, I only ever listen to it when it comes up on shuffle which it only does rarely.
It always makes me think about where I want to be in the future.
Dear lord, when I get to heaven
Please let me bring my manWhen he comes tell me that you’ll let him in
Father tell me if you can
Oh that grace, oh that body
Oh that face makes me wanna party
He’s my sun, he makes me shine like diamonds

I love Lana Del Ray, her voice is so haunting and other worldly. I feel like she sounds like a David Lynch film looks.

I love when a song touches you like that. I do occasionally just cry at random songs that come on. Unfortunately it doesn’t matter where I happen to be when the tears come. They are in charge in that moment, remembering some emotional memory and transporting you there in an instant. Powerful stuff (and sometimes embarrassing 🙂

I couldn’t agree more! It stops me in my tracks every time I hear it but I love when something does that to me! Even though I agree it could be very embarrassing haha 🙂
