Video Games is so special to me - I remember seeing the video for the first time in 2012 (after she re-released it thanks to copyright) and thinking A. the song was beautiful and B. I would've done anything to look like Lana. It took me five years after that to officially jump on the Lana train, but this song and video will always mean the absolute world to me. Also, seeing the old comments is so funny

"Anybody know where i can get this for my Ipod?"

The Born To Die album cover being shot the day before her death will always be one of the most interesting unrelated ~astral type connections to me

 

Wow I didn't realise this! It's almost like Amy was passing on the torch :lange:

such a beautiful song & beautiful music video, one of my all-time favorite lana del rey music videos, cinematic, nostalgic, vintage... a cultural reset :godlaugh: also, she's absolutely gorgeous in this video... her hair <3

I'm kinda sad and jealous that I didn't get the chance to know about Lana during this time. I became a fan after Born to Die was released but before Paradise was released. Though, I did get to watch her perform Video Games live in 2012 and it was only then that I grew so much appreciation for the song. Everything you mention is what makes the song classic and timeless (even if the lips still scare me).

Still one of her best songs, and simply one of the best songs of all-time! Still evokes the same feeling it did a decade ago. BTD-era (and before) work absolutely changed and shaped parts of my life :wub: And to think of all that would come...:flutter:

Thank you, sweet song :wub:

Time flies, I remember the first time I heard Video Games. Still beautifully haunting. :poordat:


I never knew that it was Lana herself that first described her music with terms like "Gangster Nancy Sinatra" and "Hollywood Sadcore". That's very interesting.

Like many of you have already said, this song still works and still sounds so beautiful. 10 years? It could’ve been released today and it’d still sound fresh. Isn’t it crazy that I’m still not tired of hearing it and singing along to it? I didn’t know of her til like 2013 but whatever. I’m really glad she released it and that people still today recognize how great it is.

Of course, Video Games would be a taurus baby. I can't believe it's been 10 years. Lana still feels like that new, underground, up-and-coming artist to me :wowcry:


  It’s not about having someone to love me anymore

This is the experience of being an American whore
