I thought her voice was unique and beautiful. As for her movements, did they expect the macarena?? She looked fine to me she sounded beautiful...

I thought her performance, although not super confident or strong was ecclectic and herself. She seems to have her own style and this is it, leave her alone.

I had never heard of Del Ray but watching her I thought the same thing as others, that it was a joke or skit. She was so off key and her movements were laughable. It seemed like she was trying to be Sexy and failing horribly. She was so off tune it was a painful and awful performance and when she sang a second time it was a repeat of the first.

Perhaps it is because she is not a mainstream artist popping up on red carpets and on MTV 24/7 is the reason for these poor reviews ... there was really nothing wrong with this at all. its a different flavor of music in a pop oriented world. I guess we need the pro's like Miley Cyrus to show us how music and art should be. What a joke of an article.

Like Brad I had never heard of Lana Del Ray or this website, but I watched SNL and was amazed at how awful she was. I kept asking myself if she was the real musical guest or this was Kristin Wigg playing an inept singer. Del Ray went off tune multiple times and mistook drug-overdosed for sultry. She actually had negative energy, sucking it into a blackhole where it disappeared forever. Again, I had no preconceptions about Del Ray whatsoever and was pleasantly surprised to learn that my sentiments were shared in the blogosphere...
