Music is a huge influence in my life and the visual aspect of the music video, while dying in traditional media outlets, lives on in the online world. Check out the videos of songs I'm listening to and add your take or destroy my own personal critique of the song in question.

LANA DEL REY-VIDEO GAMES
Following Lana Del Rey's performance of her breakout single, "Video Games" on SNL this past weekend, I have to say that her live performances need some polishing. To say that she was a bit off vocally would be far too kind. I will go ahead and assume that Lana Del Rey was all sorts of nervous to be on national TV but she was all over the place from throaty to deep and soulful and it was a trainwreck. One poor performance, especially in front of a national audience, can take quite a while to make up for in the eyes of the fickle public. Her music is still amazing and so far from what is mainstream today that it deserves recognition but she needs to calm her nerves and smooth out her vocals.
If you like music and arts in general then you must LOVE photos, check out my photo project, MinnPics. It's all about Minnesota, the state in which I live.
