Lana Del Rey's little sister is growing on me more than I'd care to admit. "Team" in the running for Song of the Year behind "Just Make It Stop," if you ask me.

Yeah, but I don't like "Royals" at all. It's kinda boring. At least "Team" has the cool synths.

Lana Del Rey only had "Video Games."

"Royals" caught my attention on the first listen. Love it, but that's all I've heard.

I admit I love "Royals," too. I like the one they play on XRT, too, but not as much. I think maybe I love that it is just bass,drums, that keyboard drone, and voice, and is such a monster hit song. I think these out-of-left-field (New Zealand, I think?) hits put CHR radio stations on notice when they become too complacent.

It annoys me when they talk over the end of the song "Royals." I also like that song. Not familiar with her other works, but I assume it is better than "Chinese Food."

I don't buy the lyrics coming out of a 16 year old mouth.

What don't you buy? She thinks she is better than everyone and figured out why everyone thinks they are great but they aren't. Totally makes sense for a 16 year old.

I think all her songs have the same premise: "I can't relate to gangsta rap, so I don't like it. What I do like is being cool in a detached way."

the key is that she "co-wrote" the song with someone who's 30. chances are...you know.

yeah. totally sounds like it. Too preachy/ernest. Few 16 year olds are really like that.

Good read. Still loving those synths on "Team," by the way.
