honorary lana del rey song of the week
+ florida kilos, ultraviolence
i like to call “florida kilos” a surf pop song, heavily influenced by..well..florida! it was also inspired by the drug documentary cocaine cowboys. my favorite part of that song is when she sings the very first lines:
white lines, pretty baby, tattoos
don’t know what they mean
they’re special just for you
special playlist of the week
“angel baby boy river phoenix”, a playlist by me on spotify
this playlist reminds me of the love of my life, river phoenix. it’s kind of a mix of songs that had meaning to him in his life, a long with songs that remind me of them, and songs that he sang. fun fact: river phoenix was part of a band, called aleka’s attic. for the 25th anniversary of his death, his sister and bandmate rain phoenix released some songs from their recording sessions which you can now find on most streaming platforms
honorary tracks from the playlist:
+ s+x on fire by kings of leon
+ stand by me by ben e. kind
+ always forever by cults
+ i don’t want to set the world on fire by the ink spots
+ creep by radiohead
artist of the week
~arctic monkeys~
fun fact!
all four original members of the band were devoted fans of hip+hop when they were younger, a genre that would have an immense influence on their later work, but it was the sound of the strokes and the libertines that would help shape their early style.
