If you have 10 minutes you need to watch short documentary on Caine’s Arcade. It’s about a 9 year old boy – who built an elaborate cardboard arcade inside his dad’s used auto part store – is about to have the best day of his life.

lana del rey music monday!

February 20, 2012 by lemmon

Have you ever heard of Lana Del Rey? I’ve just recently stumbled across her music (I know I’m a couple months late). Not since Adele have I had a music obsession on an entire album that I can’t get enough of. Her new album Born to Die is a great listen. I love her voice, her overall sound is more bluesy/jazzy than Adele but her songs are so poetic and tell a great story. Her sweet sultry voice makes you stop and listen. You don’t expect that voice to come out of her.
