Video Games is Part 3 in the new October Drift series Acoustic Sessions

Formed from the fruits of a solid foundation built over years of touring and writing, October Drift have cemented their place as an important new presence, with their heavy, pop-inflected rock delivering a rejuvenating injection of fresh blood to the genre.

One of the most electrifying, charismatic and formidable live acts of the past two years – with appearances at festivals including Glastonbury’s John Peel stage, Reading & Leeds and The Great Escape, as well as a major European tour with Editors in 2018 and a slot at Liverpool’s Sound City – the band released their critically acclaimed debut album ‘Forever Whatever’ in Jan 2020.

‘A truly impressive first effort designed to rupture yet also mend broken hearts’ 4/5 – Kerrang

‘Bold and brash, tender and understated, and perhaps most importantly vital, a true contender for album of the year’ – Clash

‘stupidly, ridiculously brilliant’ – Louder Than War

VIDEO GAMES LYRICS

Swinging in the backyard
Pull up in your fast car
Whistling my name

Open up a beer
And you say, “Get over here
And play a video game”

I’m in his favourite sundress
Watchin’ me get undressed
Take that body downtown

I say, “You the bestest”
Lean in for a big kiss
Put his favourite perfume on
Go play your video game

It’s you, it’s you, it’s all for you
Everything I do
I tell you all the time
Heaven is a place on earth with you
Tell me all the things you wanna do
I heard that you like the bad girls
Honey, is that true?

It’s better than I ever even knew
They say that the world was built for two
Only worth living if somebody is loving you
And, baby, now you do

Singin’ in the old bars
Swingin’ with the old stars
Livin’ for the fame

Kissin’ in the blue dark
Playin’ pool and wild darts
Video games

He holds me in his big arms
Drunk and I am seeing stars
This is all I think of

Watchin’ all our friends fall
In and out of Old Paul’s
This is my idea of fun
Playin’ video games

It’s you, it’s you, it’s all for you
Everything I do
I tell you all the time
Heaven is a place on earth with you
Tell me all the things you wanna do
I heard that you like the bad girls
Honey, is that true?

It’s better than I ever even knew
They say that the world was built for two
Only worth living if somebody is loving you
And, baby, now you do

It’s you, it’s you, it’s all for you
Everything I do
I tell you all the time
Heaven is a place on earth with you
Tell me all the things you wanna do
I heard that you like the bad girls
Honey, is that true?

It’s better than I ever even knew
They say that the world was built for two
Only worth living if somebody is loving you
And, baby, now you do

“Video Games” is a song recorded by American singer and songwriter Lana Del Rey for her second studio album and major label debut, Born to Die (2012). It was first released to the Internet on June 29, 2011, was later released on her extended play, Lana Del Rey, and re-released as the lead single from her second studio album, Born to Die on October 7, 2011, through Interscope Records. The song was produced by Robopop while the lyrics were written by Del Rey and Justin Parker. “Video Games” is a baroque pop ballad that speaks of the protagonist who, despite being ignored by her significant other, resolves to love him regardless.

“Video Games” has received several accolades from critics since its release. The song has been considered Del Rey’s “breakthrough hit” and was a commercial success, peaking at number one in Germany, Iceland and Luxembourg, reaching a top ten position in Belgium, France, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom and peaked at 91 on Billboard Hot 100 chart and was certified gold.
