Summertime Sadness~

These few days, I've asked Eddie to accompany me at home since living alone could make us feeling real psychotic sometimes. Not that he didn't visit me almost every day, but these few nights, we've been belting out tunes from Lana Del Rey, Summertime Sadness. He'll play the guitar and I'll be singing the lyrics through the guide of a downloaded minus one.

Literally, reffering to the video clip - it might be about a lesbian relationship and when one of girls died because of suicide the other one reminds their common memories. That's the easiest and the most obvious way to interpretate this great song.



But personally, I'd rather say it's about losing best friend and missing this person because we stil remember how much fun we had together.

Summertime is also holiday time and sometimes, when we don't see people for longer, they may change even if it's the last thing we want. Suicide motive and verse,

''I just wanted you to know
That baby you're the best''

...may mean that it's not our fault that we lost our best friend and we did everything to avoid it. It's like you just can't accept he changed - just don't recognize our old best friend in this person. We only remember old good days.Then the bridge:

''Think I'll miss you forever

Like the stars miss the sun in the morning sky
Late is better than never
Even if you're gone I'm gonna drive''

It's like: I will always remember all the stuff we used to do but I think we still can be friends, if you want it. 

But if not, I just will go on. But I will always miss all good times, I'll never forget you!



I just love singing. 

Who knew, when I'm ready, I'll post our cover video !!!
