Tell Me, Am I Glamourous?

The funny thing about Lana Del Rey’s Born to Die is that after a while, it begins to sound like 15 rough drafts for a statement song in which she lays out all of her themes and tells you who she is. It’s rare to come across an artist so eager to explain herself, but given the way the world has responded to her thus far, there probably isn’t an artist alive who actually requires this much self-defense. But it gets very boring, and there are diminishing returns: I think that she is successful in setting up ideas and themes with genuine emotional resonance in “Born to Die,” “Video Games” and “Without You,” but for the most part, it’s a plodding, overlong and repetitive record that, on a lyrical level, tells rather than shows.

A few sacrifices may need to be made on your way to becoming a modern Spinster. Assess your current group of friends. Have any of them ever uttered any version of the following phrases? "Don't worry, you're so pretty; you'll meet someone some day," or "I just don't know how you stay so strong. I would be lost without [insert boyfriend/husband name here]." These people, usually women, are not your friends. They are spectators, watching your life, trying to make themselves feel better by comparison. Fuck them.

The Caribbean News Magazine

Caribbean Journal was founded in 2011 with one vision: to provide news, commentary and analysis in a way that the Caribbean had not yet seen. Caribbean Journal is the Caribbean’s first news magazine – where all the islands can receive their news in one place and have their opinions heard across the region. It is where Caribbean voices now have a central platform.
