celeb news Billie Eilish: Lana Del Rey's Blue Jeans video is GOAT; I want to pay homage to soon.

[NOW]

 

Quote

Eilish has cited Del Rey as a major influence on her career, including just last month, when she joined the singer onstage at Coachella and told the crowd, "This is the reason for half of you *******' existence … including mine." Eilish and her brother wanted Hit Me Hard and Soft to be a cohesive set of songs best listened to from start to finish, a move inspired by albums they grew up loving — including Del Rey's 2012 major-label debut, Born to Die. But their Lana fandom goes even deeper than that: When Eilish decided she wanted to be photographed underwater for the cover of Hard and Soft, a certain someone came to mind. "One of my favorite music videos of all time is 'Blue Jeans' by Lana Del Rey," she said. "Which I really want to pay homage to in a video soon."

I'm really loving this era of Lana/Billie camaraderie  Two of my music legends

Blue Jeans needs some streams, all of the singles of the album except for Ride (which is also her best single along with title track) and even some tracks like Diet Mountain Dew and Radio have passed it. 

 

Maybe Billie can give it a push. Maybe pay a tribute to Ride too while you're at it too.

Well it does 200K daily which is still huge for a single that did not sell more than 500,000 downloads. It's just more on par with the singles of her post-UV era, in other words.

Love them she has taste for picking Blue Jeans

I was about to say she's damn right and that Blue Jeans is visually stunning but just rewatched it and gee- I didn't remember it being this slow and boring. Still visually stunning.

What's funny is this song is a classic for me but I've never liked the video very much, it's just kinda meh?  It's probably the weakest BTD video for me.
