Bubble Tea and Cigarettes - French Movie

French Movie - Bubble Tea and Cigarettes (Dream Pop) This is a special one kids, and we have to admit we are a bit mesmerized by this lush, gorgeous track. The track allows the instrumental to set the tone at the top—a dreamy miasma of synth with an understated drum that gives music box vibes. Immediately we were transported to the early 90s to the hits of Annie Lennox’s solo career—Why and No More I Love Yous in particular—but also a healthy dose of Lana Del Rey. It’s a haunting melody coming from an incredibly unique and distinct vocal performance. It’s a sung whisper, slinky and intimate that really pulled us in right from the top. French Movie evokes all the strange beauty of, say, a Tim Burton movie, and it’s a movie we want to see again.
