Elizabeth Woolridge Grant(born June 21,
1985), known professionally as Lana Del Rey, is an American singer-songwriter.
Her music is noted for its cinematic quality and exploration of tragic romance,
glamour,
and melancholia,
containing references to contemporary pop culture,
as well as 1950s and 1960s Americana.
She is the recipient of various accolades,
including two Brit Awards, two MTV Europe
Music Awards, a Satellite Award, and
received nominations for six Grammy Award and a Golden Globe Award.
Raised in upstate New York,
Del Rey moved to New York City in 2005 to pursue a music career. After numerous
projects, including her self-titled
debut studio album, Del Rey's breakthrough came in
2011 with the viral success of her single "Video Games";
she subsequently signed a recording contract with Polydor and Interscope.
She achieved critical and commercial success with her second album, Born to Die(2012),
which contained the sleeper hit "Summertime Sadness".
Del Rey's third album, Ultraviolence(2014),
featured greater use of guitar-driven instrumentation and debuted atop the U.S.
Billboard 200. Her
fourth and fifth albums, Honeymoon(2015)
and Lust for Life(2017),
saw a return to the stylistic traditions of her earlier releases, while her
critically acclaimed sixth album, Norman
Fucking Rockwell! (2019), explored soft rock. Del Rey
followed this with the albums Chemtrails
over the Country Club and Blue Banisters, both in
2021.
Norman Fucking Rockwell! is the sixth studio album by
American singer-songwriter Lana Del Rey.
It was released on August 30, 2019, by Polydor and Interscope Records.
The album was primarily produced by Del Rey and Jack Antonoff, with
additional contributions from Zach Dawes, Andrew Watt and longtime Del Rey collaborator Rick Nowels. Musically,
Norman Fucking Rockwell! features a soft rock sound consisting of psych-rock jams and piano ballads,
and features references to various classic rock artists. The name of the album is a reference to the painter and
illustrator Norman Rockwell.
The first singles from the album, "Mariners Apartment
Complex" and "Venice Bitch",
were released in September 2018, followed by "Hope Is a Dangerous Thing for a Woman like Me to Have
– but I Have It", "Doin' Time",
"The Greatest",
and "Norman
Fucking Rockwell" in 2019.
Norman Fucking Rockwell! received widespread
critical acclaim, and was nominated for Album of the
Year at the 62nd Annual
Grammy Awards, while the title track was nominated for Song of the
Year. It was listed by several publications as
one of the best albums of the decade, and in the years following its release,
of all time. To promote the album, Del Rey embarked on a concert tour, titled The Norman
Fucking Rockwell! Tour.
Do you want me or do
you not?
I heard one thing, now I'm hearing another
Dropped a pin to my parking spot
The bar was hot, it's 2 am, it feels like summer
Happiness is a
butterfly
Try to catch it like every night
It escapes from my hands into moonlight
Every day is a lullaby
I hum it on the phone like every night
And sing it for my babies on the tour life
Ah ah
If he's a serial
killer, then what's the worst
That could happen to a girl who's already hurt?
I'm already hurt
If he's as bad as they say, then I guess I'm cursed
Looking into his eyes, I think he's already hurt
He's already hurt
I said, "Don't
be a jerk, don't call me a taxi"
Sitting in your sweatshirt, crying in the backseat
Ooh
I just wanna dance with you
Hollywood and Vine, Black Rabbit in the alley
I just wanna hold you tight down the avenue
I just wanna dance with you
I just wanna dance with you
Baby, I just wanna
dance (dance)
With you (dance)
Baby, I just wanna dance (dance)
With you
Left the canyon,
drove to the club
I was one thing, now I'm being another
Go down to Sunset in the truck
I'll pick you up if you're in town on the corner
Ah ah
Happiness is a
butterfly
We should catch it while dancing
I lose myself in the music, baby
Every day is a lullaby
Try to catch it like lightning
I sing it into my music, I'm crazy
If he's a serial
killer, then what's the worst
That could happen to a girl who's already hurt?
I'm already hurt
If he's as bad as they say, then I guess I'm cursed
Looking into his eyes, I think he's already hurt
He's already hurt
I said, "don't
be a jerk, don't call me a taxi"
Sitting in your sweatshirt, crying in the backseat
Ooh
I just wanna dance with you
Hollywood and Vine, Black Rabbit in the alley
I just wanna hold you tight down the avenue
I just wanna dance with you
I just wanna dance with you
Baby, I just wanna
dance (dance)
With you (dance)
Baby, I just wanna dance (dance)
With you!
