What more could you want than a beautiful woman with a beautiful voice singing a beautiful song? This song is where my love for Lana Del Rey started, the beautiful lyrics, how she wraps her beautiful voice around those lyrics and translates them into purpose and meaning that no other artist could do, she has her quirky and unusual songs but this one is so unique and its sad that it's often grouped together with her other songs because its on a whole other level. Still a great song but she has so much better. There's so many other amazing songs by her too which don't get recognition because of mainstream ones like Summertime Sadness. It's my favorite song from her I give all votes to this It's refreshing, haunting and gives you the chills. Which you don't see to often in other songs. From an interview she talks about how she used to watch her crush play video games. Then the second verse explains about before she met him, and then when they were dating. The first verse talks about how he wanted both her and his video games, with the chorus saying she resents that and that she wants him to love her entirely, not split in half. I usually get my inspiration from its video clip. But that song is definitely my favorite song of all times. The red dressed woman in the video clip always reminds me of my ex whom I loved the best and who didn't care. ' I just start crying even if I am in a good mood actually.
I don't know what is so damn dramatic about this song but, every time she says 'it's you. "I've been trying too hard, with one pretty song" represents everything that happened after Video Games. It's such a beautiful song, it's hard to chose between Ride and Video Games though. It's hard to chose, but Lana Del Rey's Ride got all the the thing in which Lana excels: The vocals, the instrumentals and the daddy issues.
My mother told me I had a chameleon soul, no moral compass pointing due north, no fixed personality just an inner indecisiveness that was as wide and as wavering as the ocean." The intro and outro hit me right in my heart, I feel like this song could be about me. She mixed a story, awesome beat, and her personality all in to one to create a true piece of artwork along with the rest of her music! I love it! I love the meaning and how Lana wrote the lyrics from her heart and how she shares what she thinks of beauty and true freedom. This is my favorite song ever! I've never heard a better song in my opinion. A must for anybody getting into Lana's music. The video is 10 minutes long and adds so much to the song. Reminds me of a true American song, about being young, wild, and free. The song is gravely in sound and iconic in imagery.

The song is best on a warm summer day, windows down in the car, blasting over the speakers as she sings "I just ride" repeatedly.
It may not be her most reknowned or popular, but the beautiful minimalist and cinematic production, wayward lyrics, and her elegant, sultry vocals make this song so dreamy and wonderful. This remains as Lana Del Rey's most timeless and classic song. She's a true artist and this song is a true masterpiece that is filled with deep emotions that will take your breath away. And what I love the most is when she says, "Why? Who Me? Why? ", and that line is so catchy and is connected to when she says, "We were born to die". She's not my idol but she sways this song heartfully, proud of it. I'm so addicted, and this track I bet is the best track she ever have. Overall her songs, this one Iove the most. The background is something I can get behind, and the lyrics bring a tear to my eye every time. "Born to Die", besides being the album's titular title song, symbolizes the entire album and, in a way, Lana's musical legacy. It pales in comparison to Born to Die, which expresses love in a way that isn't even borderline cheesy (like Video Games or Blue Jeans) but, however bleak and existential it may seem, prioritizes the true virtues of love. While Summertime Sadness is one of Lana's greatest hits, you can probably thank its mainstream radio popularity in 20 for its success on its list.
