Lana del Rey – yeah, the “Video Games” gal we all love, love, love, and love more now – was in Toronto on Wednesday for her first Canadian show. I was having such a fucked up week, and it was sold out long before. Then, from my fairy PR-maverick friend, a ticket magically became available to me. It was as if the Universe proclaimed, “Okay, I get it. You pulled through, and didn’t do anything stupid with anyone stupid. Here, go see Lana.” I mean, I don’t worship or idolize or play the girl on loop or anything, but I dig the sound and the style and the voice. After a short (too short) 45-minute set, I was ready to throw my gin’s lime at her. Come on: do a cover song or something. Then girl did “Diet Mtn Dew” – aka the sexiest song she’s got. It’s also the first time she’s done it live (apparently), so I recorded it and put it on YouTube.

And now, watch this video from a chick in the UK. Now this I’ve had on loop for days. And the video itself is so post-Lana, no? With all the montages and cinematic quality, etc.
