Elizabeth Woolridge Grant(born June 21, 1985),
known professionally as Lana Del Rey, is an American singer and songwriter. Her
music is noted for its cinematic quality and exploration of tragic romance, glamour,
and melancholia,
containing references to contemporary pop culture and 1950s and 1960s Americana.
She is the recipient of various accolades,
including two Brit Awards, two MTV Europe
Music Awards, a Satellite Award, and has
been nominated for six Grammy Awards and one Golden Globe Award.
She also has been recognized with the Variety's
Decade Award at the Variety Hitmakers Awards for being ″regarded
as one of the most influential singer-songwriters of the 21st century″.
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.
Del Rey has collaborated on soundtracks for
visual media; in 2013, she wrote and starred in the critically acclaimed musical short Tropico, and
performed "Young and Beautiful"
for the romantic drama The Great
Gatsby. In 2014, she recorded "Once Upon a Dream"
for the dark fantasy adventure film Maleficent and the self-titled theme song for the biopic Big Eyes.
Del Rey collaborated with Ariana Grande and Miley Cyrus on
"Don't Call Me
Angel" for the action comedy Charlie's
Angels(2019), which peaked at number 13 on the U.S.
Billboard Hot 100. Outside
of music, Del Rey published the poetry and photography collection Violet
Bent Backwards over the Grass(2020).
"Dark Paradise" is a song recorded
by American singer-songwriter Lana Del Rey for her second studio album, Born to Die (2012). It was written by Lana Del Rey and Rick Nowels, while
production was handled by Emile Haynie.
Nowels and Devrim
Karaoglu produced the radio mix of the song. The song
was released on March 1, 2013, by Universal and Vertigo Records, as the
sixth and final single from Born to Die.
The
song received mainly mixed reviews from critics, many criticizing her
melodramatic performance, also with the repetition of production and lyrical
content. However, many believed the attraction of the criticism proved it as a
highlight. Noticeably less successful than other singles from the album,
"Dark Paradise" managed to gain some commercial success in Central
Europe, becoming a top five hit on Polish airplay. It was
also featured in an episode of The Originals,
a spin-off of The Vampire
Diaries.
The
song was recorded by psychobilly band Tiger Army, released in 2018 on the EP of
the same name.
All my friends tell
me I should move on
I'm lying in the ocean, singing your song
Ahh
That's how you sang it
Loving you forever
can't be wrong
Even though you're not here, won't move on
Ahh
That's how we played it
And there's no remedy
for memory, your face is like a melody
It won't leave my head
Your soul is haunting me and telling me that everything is fine
But I wish I was dead
Every time I close my eyes, it's like a dark paradise
No one compares to you
I'm scared that you won't be waiting on the other side
Every time I close my eyes, it's like a dark paradise
No one compares to you
I'm scared that you won't be waiting on the other side
All my friends ask me
why I stay strong
Tell 'em when you find true love, it lives on
Ahh
That's why I stay here
And there's no remedy
for memory, your face is like a melody
It won't leave my head
Your soul is haunting me and telling me that everything is fine
But I wish I was dead
Every time I close my eyes, it's like a dark paradise
No one compares to you
I'm scared that you won't be waiting on the other side
Every time I close my eyes, it's like a dark paradise
No one compares to you
But there's no you, except in my dreams tonight
Oh-oh-oh-oh-hah-hah-hah-hah
I don't want to wake up from this tonight
Oh-oh-oh-oh-hah-hah-hah-hah
I don't want to wake up from this tonight
There's no relief, I see you in my sleep
And everybody's rushing me, but I can feel you touching me
There's no release, I feel you in my dreams
Telling me I'm fine
Every time I close my
eyes, it's like a dark paradise
No one compares to you
I'm scared that you won't be waiting on the other side
Every time I close my eyes, it's like a dark paradise
No one compares to you
But there's no you, except in my dreams tonight
Oh-oh-oh-oh-hah-hah-hah-hah
I don't want to wake up from this tonight
Oh-oh-oh-oh-hah-hah-hah-hah
I don't want to wake up from this tonight.
