Black Beauty
New entry (353)

I paint my nails black
I dye my hair a darker shade of brown
Cause you like your women Spanish, dark, strong and proud
And paint the sky black
You said if you could have your way
You'd make a night time [?] today
So it'd fit the mood of your song

Oh, what can I do?
Nothing, my sparrow blue
Oh, what can I do?
Life is beautiful but you don't have a clue
Sun and ocean blue
Their magnificence, it don't make sense to you

Black beauty, oh-oh-oh
Black beauty, oh-oh-oh

I paint the house black
My wedding dress black leather too
You have no room for light
Love is lost on you
I keep my lips red
They seem like cherries in the spring
Darling, you can't let everything
Seem so dark blue

Oh, what can I do?
To turn you on or get through [to?] you
Oh, what can I do?
Life is beautiful but you don't have a clue
Sun and ocean blue
Their magnificence, it don't make sense to you

Black beauty, oh-oh-oh
Black beauty, oh-oh-oh

Black beauty, ah-ah-ah-ah
Black beauty, ah-ah-ah
Black beauty, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah

Black beauty, baby
Black beauty, baby

Oh, what can I do?
Life is beautiful but you don't have a clue
Sun and ocean blue
Their magnificence, it don't make sense to you

Great review from @@SitarHero:

Granted, the low-key percussion shuffle and minimal production suggests this song was in its demo stages at the time of its leak, but that doesn't matter to me. This is the only unreleased song on my list, but who knows if I'll get the chance to name it's fully-produced version the song of the year in 2014? Who knows if "Black Beauty" will even mean as much to me in 2014 as it did in 2013? Naturally, I kind of wish I weren't able to list this song as a favorite quite yet because the leak really hurt Lana.

 

At the same time, I'm convinced that I'm better off for hearing this song. I've named it the Best Ballad of this year, most logically because it placed higher than any other ballads, but it's such a lyrical step forward for Lana Del Rey that it would be criminal not to give credit where it's due. "Black Beauty" contains some of her best and most effortless lyrics yet, my favorite being, "I paint the sky black / You said if you could have your way, you’d make it nighttime all the day / So it’d suit the mood of your soul." Her voice brims with the emotion somewhat lacking in some of her latest releases, like "Young & Beautiful" and "Gods & Monsters". Yet this song isn't such a departure that I'm not left deeply feeling all the reasons I'm so committed to my love for this woman who doesn't know my name.

 

There's the same candor and honestly in her lyrics mixed with a characteristic commitment to imagery and concept, her voice is as captivating and crushing as ever, and there's a real sense of atmosphere taking place. Her talent for expression at all costs is at its most clear in quite a while. Ultimately, this song isn't number one because Lana is my favorite artist--Lana is my favorite artist because she delivers such worthy songs as this one. Brush your hair to this.
