And one good performance deserves another. After Lana Del Rey‘s killer cut of “Blue Jeans” from the Premises, the artist formerly known as Lizzy Grant made her TV debut on the October 11th edition of Later… with Jools Holland. Tackling “Video Games”, the songbird is the star of a haunting and mesmerizing musical event. Stripped to its most raw and essential, the song is profoundly stirring, allowing Del Rey to shine as the vulnerable vixen caught in the sea of topsy turvy love affair. Check it out below (via 130 BPM).
Del Rey’s upcoming debut full-length is listed as hitting stores on January 23rd, 2012. Her debut single, Video Games” b/w Blue Jeans, is out now via Stranger Records.
