Lana Del Rey is magnetic. Stunningly beautiful and depressingly talented, lips plumped up to bursting and miles of hair cascading over slender shoulders, she points her doe eyes at the camera and lets loose with a toffee-flavoured croon somewhere between Adele and Joanna Newsom. You know that star quality thing people talk about? She invented it, although her musical chops are not so naturally gifted. Video Games is a seductive and hip tune, but Lana has a couple of pop hybrid stinkers floating out there on YouTube. Take what little comfort you can before her pretty, pretty face is plastered all over everything, forever.
