So I remember seeing the previews for The Great Gatsby back in 2013 when I caught another film at The Angelika and thinking that I had to see it; however, since my life consistently seems to be jam-packed, I somehow missed it. Thank goodness for Netflix and the accompanying DVD delivery service because I finally got around to watching it last night. I completely forgot that it was directed by Baz Luhrmann, who also directed Moulin Rouge, so the cinematography and visuals were both stunning and utterly breathtaking at certain points.
One of the main tunes in the film is this one by Lana Del Rey. It doesn't seem like many people gave her music much of chance, but I think she's okay. I mean, I wouldn't add her to my top 20, probably not even my top 50 (if you want to know the truth), but I don't skip her songs if they show up on Pandora or anything of that nature.
Alrighty, well I seem to be rambling, and as usual, I have a ton of stuff to accomplish with my long weekend; so with that, I leave you with "Young and Beautiful"...
Until next time...
XOXOXO

I've seen the world
Done it all
Had my cake now
Diamonds, brilliant and Bel-Air now.
Hot summer nights, mid July
When you and I were forever wild
The crazy days, city lights
The way you'd play with me like a child
Will you still love me when I'm no longer young and beautiful?
Will you still love me when I've got nothing but my aching soul?
I know you will, I know you will
I know that you will
Will you still love me when I'm no longer beautiful?
I've seen the world
Lit it up
As my stage now
Chanelling angels in
The new age now
Hot summer days, rock and roll
The way you'd play for me at your show
And all the ways I got to know
Your pretty face and electric soul
Will you still love me when I'm no longer young and beautiful?
Will you still love me when I've got nothing but my aching soul?
I know you will, I know you will
I know that you will
Will you still love me when I'm no longer beautiful?
Dear Lord, when I get to heaven
Please let me bring my man
When he comes tell me that you'll let him
Father tell me if you can
Oh that grace, oh that body
Oh that face makes me wanna party
He's my sun, he makes me shine like diamonds
Will you still love me when I'm no longer young and beautiful?
Will you still love me when I got nothing but my aching soul?
I know you will, I know you will
I know that you will
Will you still love me when I'm no longer beautiful
Will you still love me when I'm no longer beautiful
Will you still love me when I'm not young and beautiful
