As much as I love the song Lana del Ray just has this look of someone who has had a football kicked into the top lip on a cold morning.

You have just reminded me of Kate and Anna McGarrigle whose stuff I liked many years ago

Went to see First Aid Kit in Manchester this week, they are awesome, amazing songwriting and singing talent. At one point they turned off the mikes and stood at the front of the stage singing with just one of them playing guitar.
Gave me goose bumps.
They are Swedish sisters of 19 and 21, so young, and with so much talent

Saw them at Bestival this year and they were amazing. Didn't know who they were so wasn't sure what to expect but like you, as soon as they started singing I got goosebumps. Amazing voices.
