I guess it’s a little more socially aware. So because of that, the sound just got really updated, and I felt like it was more wanting to talk to the younger side of the audience that I have. “But I don’t know, as the climate kept on getting more heated politically, I found lyrically everything was just directed towards that. “I started out thinking that the whole record was gonna have a sort of a ’50s-’60s feeling, kind of some kind of Shangri-Las, early Joan Baez influences,” she explained. She also recently gave a rare interview to BBC Radio 2’s Jo Whiley, where she revealed more details about the upcoming new record. Meanwhile, Del Rey recently unveiled the cover art for her new album ‘Lust For Life’. “You’re one of my favourite writers,” Del Rey told Love, who replied: “You’re one of mine, so, checkmate.” She said: “Maybe that’s kind of weird to have a feature on the title track, but I really love that song and we had said for a while that we were gonna do something I did stuff on his last two records.”Įlsewhere in the Dazed interview, Del Rey and Love discuss their admiration for each other’s music. She also confirmed that The Weeknd features on the album’s title track ‘Lust For Life’. “Actually, I had listened to his records over the years and I did think it was his vibe, so I played it for him and he liked it.” “I didn’t want him to think I was asking him because I was name-checking them,” Del Rey explained of the collaboration. Lana spoke to Courtney Love in a new interview for Dazed in which she talked about a song from her upcoming album called ‘Tomorrow Never Came’ that was written with Sean Ono Lennon and includes the lyric: “I wish we could go back to your country house and put on the radio and listen to our favourite song by Lennon and Yoko”. The track, entitled Young & In Love, was co-written by Emile Haynie who collaborated with the singer on Born To Die, and Rick Nowels, who worked on Summertime Sadness. The singer recently unveiled a witch-themed trailer for the album and teased that the record is “coming soon”. Lana Del Rey spent the weekend at Coachella, chilling with Katy Perry and filming Father John Misty and dancing to Kendrick Lamar.On her way home, she apparently wrote a new song, and now she’s. Some new music may FINALLY be on the way from everyones favourite songstress Lana Del Rey, after a new song title was officially registered this week. And not only can she smile, Del Rey actually shows off her pearl-white teeth on the cover of Lust for Life, her new album. Although this seems like a reasonable thing for a human being to do, up until a few months ago it was up for debate. It has already been preceded by lead single ‘Love’. 2017 delivered some exciting news: Lana Del Rey can smile. More than a mere retro stylist, Lana embraces nostalgic all-American imagery only to corrupt it through subversive-sometimes profane-anti-love songs, while elevating pop-cultural detritus into high art: On 2019’s Norman F*****g Rockwell!-an epic masterwork that scales the heights of Elton John’s early-'70s classics-she makes room for a cover of Sublime’s ’90s stoner-funk anthem “Doin’ Time”, giving it a sultry trip-hop makeover that affirms the mystery of Lana Del Rey continues to be - Lana Del Rey has revealed that she’s collaborated with John Lennon and Yoko Ono‘s son, Sean Ono Lennon, on a new song that references his parents, NME reports.ĭel Rey is preparing to release her new album, ‘Lust For Life’, the follow-up to 2015’s ‘Honeymoon’. Since then, Lana has always kept listeners guessing: Informed equally by classic-rock mythology and modern hip-hop attitude, she can casually name-drop Lou Reed in a dream-pop serenade (2014’s “Brooklyn Baby”) as effortlessly she communes with R&B futurist The Weeknd (2017’s “Lust for Life”). Not only did the song prove it was possible to cultivate genuine mystique in the age of oversharing, but it also carved out a space for languid, Twin Peaks-worthy art-pop amid a Top 40 normally reserved for jacked-up pop anthems. The wistful orchestral ballad (and an accompanying Super 8-style video that heralded the ubiquity of soft-focus Instagram filters) introduced a femme fatale who delighted in breaking hearts and the internet alike, knowingly using coquettish sex-kitten cliches as a means to probe male behaviour and, by extension, the American id itself. At a time when social media was giving people the power to curate their identities and present idealised versions of themselves online, the struggling singer-songwriter once known as Lizzy Grant (born in New York in 1985) reinvented herself as Lana Del Rey for her epochal 2011 single “Video Games”. Though she’s got the name and look of a ’60s-era Hollywood star, Lana Del Rey could only have emerged in the internet era.
