artistry

I watched a documentary years ago about Jeff Buckley and I will never forget it. He is such an artist. I feel similarly about Lana Del Rey. Thinking of individual songs, there's a certain mood, that she just absolutely nails. It's very American, but I don't know if Americans can see that. From my point of view, it's an expression of something distinctly American. 

And then, in terms of albums....Lana Del Rey does something that I don't see in anyone else, although they probably have it - an album for her is really the realization of a creative project. Seeing her process of constructing albums gives me a feeling of joy and makes me want to create.
