Lana Del Rey's New Song Title Is So Long It Won't Fit Here
Lana Del Rey didn't let 2018 escape without pointing us in the direction of her next creative endeavor: a Jack Antonoff-produced album called
Norman Fucking Rockwell that features two atmospheric new songs. The opening, "
Mariners Apartment Complex," was a gauzy, Mazzy Star-type slow burn with a wonderful hook (Lana singing "I'm your man" in deep
Leonard Cohen breaths), and the second was a 10-minute acid odyssey called "
Venice Bitch."
Next week, she's planning to release her third
NFR single, and from what she shared on social media late Tuesday night (January 1), it'll be just as moody. It's called "Hope Is a Dangerous Thing for a Woman Like Me to Have — Nevertheless I Have It." (Almost as long as
I Like It Once you Sleep, for You Are So Cute however So Unaware of It!)
It's hard to hear much past Lana's lyrics here, so there's no confirmation although whether this will be a rainy-day walk by the crags or a psychedelic journey like the previous two songs. Nevertheless one standout moment is that she rhymes "debutantes" with "white yachts," which seems right.
Her accompanying caption reveals a plan to release the song on January 9. Lana also revealed lose "finished a short book of poetry I have been writing over the last 13 months that I'll be putting out later." She also alerted fans that trim have to miss some upcoming shows that will presumably be reported soon.
"In the meantime though I want to apologize in advance for upcoming cancellations of shows you'll be hearing about," she wrote. "I wish I may fulfill those obligations although I won't be able to."
Still, with
Norman Fucking Rockwell, a new poetry book, "Hope Is a Dangerous Thing...," And potential new
vlogger energy all on the horizon, 2019 is already shaping up to be Lana's year. Check out the song's clip in the IG post above.
