There's no remedy for memory

says Lana Del Rey in her influential song, Dark Paradise... The song says more than this of course, for instance:

All my friends tell me I should move on
I'm lying in the ocean, singing your song
That's how you sing it
Loving you forever can't be wrong
Even though you're not here, won't move on
That's how we played it
There's no remedy for memory
Your face is like a melody
It won't leave my head
...

When the first time I listened Lana Del Rey, I couldn't accept her and I perceived her some kind of a "fake" Amy Winehouse (e'en when she was alive). I've got a bad bad nature about internalizing a celebrity. If I like an artist more than a normal degree -as I like Amy Winehouse- I cannot accept another one who has a similar music genre. And Lana is one of them that I victimised prejudicedly.

I begin to listen to her seriously after my sister had offered insistently. Then I realized I had been unfair to her music. She is totally different from Amy, in the way of reflecting her feelings. Amy had a restless soul that was searching for happiness. She was trying hard to get rid of her pain. But Lana's restless soul lives on with its sorrow. She's born with grief and she doesn't complain it. Her sorrow is the only thing to make her move on.

She's got a terrible pain in the depths of her heart and she's very successful to narrate it by her art. There're not so many people to express their feelings such forwardly. Her painful courage makes her different from anyone.

In Born to Die she mentions a damn love turning around a dead end, the only way to reach the weal shit is to die together.

....
Come take walk on the wild side
Let me kiss you hard in pouring rain
You like your girls insane
Choose your last words
This is the last time
Cause you 'n I, we were born to die
....

She sometimes cites her longing and passion as it's some kind of a dream, a hopeful one, yet will never become true as in bloody Bel Air:
...
Roses, bel air, take me there
I've been waitin' to meet ya
Palm trees in the light
I can see late at night
Darlin' I'm willing to greet you
...

Anyone should listen to Summertime Sadness in a winter night, which gives a feeling like a warm blanket both peaceful and rueful. It's a farewell to beloved who'll never turn over. This song actually makes me feel that "there's no remedy for memory" therefore I hate it, but cannot stop listening. I'm some kind of a fucking Lana Del Rey in this respect I guess, preferring not to avoid pain.

...
I think I'll love you forever
Like the stars miss the sun in the morning skies....
Kiss me hard before you go
Summertime sadness
...

Briefly, for a couple of months I'm listenin' to her potently and I feel, her music is inspiring and soulful. She will never become Amy Winehouse, besides she doesn't need to...
