    James Vincent Mcmorrow is so effortless, doesn't even look like he's trying and he can pull off a complete flawless performance. I adore him and his voice.

      sarah maddy felt the ''arctic monkeys'' (aka Alex Turner) cover was pretty bland. Yeah it was a decent acoustic rendition but it was just basic and lazy. It's no fun when someone goes in there and plays the chords of a song on an acoustic guitar and sings. It was not bad, but in no means as genius as the previous ones where they have recreated the song to suit their style

      Jackson Raeburn If they don't have time to prepare then they shouldn't have time to do it. They (Alex Turner) did exactly the same thing last time as well so it's not like its a one off thing. I'm sure they are more talented then playing a few chords on acoustic guitar

    So many are commenting that your voice is "way too high!", but personally, being a big fan of Lana, I like this so much better. It may not be suuuuper clear, but it sounds fucking perfect to me. I like the small strain of emotion in which Lana doesn't have sometimes and she just sounds overly-sultry instead of invested into the meaning.

    Down on the West Coast they got a saying
    "If you're not drinking then you're not playing"
    But you've got the music, you've got the music in you, don't you?
    Down on the West Coast I get this feeling
    Like it all could happen that's why I'm leaving
    You for the moment, you for the moment, Boy Blue, yeah, you
    You're falling hard, I push away, I'm feeling hot to the touch
    You say you miss me, I say I miss you so much
    But something keeps me really quiet, I'm alive, I'm a lush
    Your love, your love, your love
    I can see my baby swinging
    His Parliament's on fire and his hands are up
    On the balcony and I'm singing
    Ooh, baby, ooh, baby, I'm in love
    I can see my sweet boy swaying
    He's crazy y Cubano como yo, my love
    On the balcony and I'm saying
    Move baby, move baby, I'm in love
    I'm in love (I'm in love)
    I'm in love (I'm in love)
    Down on the West Coast, they got their icons
    Their silver starlets, their Queens of Saigons
    And you've got the music, you've got the music in you, don't you?
    Down on the West Coast, they love their movies
    Their golden gods, and rock and roll groupies
    And you've got the music, you've got the music in you, don't you?
    You push it hard, I pull away, I'm feeling hotter than fire
    I guess that no one ever really made me feel that much higher
    Te deseo, cariño, boy, it's you I desire
    Your love, your love, your love
    I can see my baby swinging
    His Parliament's on fire and his hands are up
    On the balcony and I'm singing
    Ooh, baby, ooh, baby, I'm in love
    I can see my sweet boy swaying
    He's crazy y Cubano como yo, my love
    On the balcony and I'm saying
    Move baby, move baby, I'm in love
    I can see my baby swinging
    His Parliament's on fire and his hands are up
    On the balcony and I'm singing
    Ooh, baby, ooh, baby, I'm in love
    I can see my sweet boy swaying
    He's crazy y Cubano como yo, my love
