Music Video of the Day: Born to Die by Lana del Rey (2011, dir by Yoann Lemoine)


When I think about the previous decade, this is one of the songs the defines it and the music video fits along with it perfectly.  Of course, it’s a bit of a morbid video, seeing as how almost every image is connected to the impending death of Lana’s character.  Then again, I was in a rather morbid mindset back in 2011.  I guess I still am.

Lana’s boyfriend is played by Bradley Soileau.  That image of them standing in front of the American flag is iconic.

Enjoy!

Music Video Of The Day: Love Ain’t No Stranger by Whitesnake (1984, directed by ????)


After you watch enough Whitesnake videos, you can be excused for wondering if David Coverdale spent the entire 80s walking in the rain.  In this one, he’s searching for the woman that he loves.  He finds her but she pulls a fast one and manages to get away from him while he’s being driven away.

The woman in this video is NOT played by Tawny Kitaen so I’m not sure if it even qualifies as a real Whitesnake video.  The song, however, is definitely a Whitesnake song and it’s still one of their most popular.

Enjoy!
