Celebrating Lana Del Rey’s birthday with 9 of her dreamiest music videos

Today is Lana Del Rey’s 31st birthday. She has brought us a serious amount of musical joy in the past few years, and our birthday gift to her is just a straight up hat-tip to the dreamy feelings she’s made us feel. She’s crooned some of the most ethereal pop hits we’ve heard, she performed at Kanye and Kim’s wedding, she provided much of the soundtrack for the modern reboot of The Great Gatsby. She also sings such gorgeous and relatable lyrics that sometimes we can’t help but weep. “Carry me home, got my blue nail polish on / It’s my favorite color and my favorite tone of song.”

Can you tell? We’re fans. In honor of her day of birth, here are a few of her sepia-toned videos that made us feel the most Lana Del Rey vibes. And by that we mean dreamy, nostalgic, and darkly gorgeous.
