It was difficult to put them in an order but it’s a vague attempt at rating them some may overlap. Below is the clip.These are my personal/in my opinion top 10 saddest songs by Lana Del Rey. The official music video for “Venice B**ch” was released on the same day (Sep 18) that the single was released. The single “ hope is a dangerous thing for a woman like me to have – but I have it” also appears on that album. It is the second single from Del Rey’s sixth studio album titled Norman F***ing Rockwell. “Venice B**ch” was officially released on 18th September, 2018.
That track as well as this one appears on the same album. Del Rey used the title of this song to refer to herself in the lyrics of her song “Mariners Apartment Complex”.Antonoff also co-wrote and produced Del Rey’s previous single “Mariners Apartment Complex”. Jack Antonoff handled the song’s production all by himself.This track was co-written by Lana Del Rey and Jack Antonoff.It is noteworthy that Rockwell’s name was also used in the title of the album ( Norman F***ing Rockwell) on which this song appears. Rockwell was best known for his illustrations in a magazine called The Saturday Evening Post. Norman Rockwell refers to a famous American illustrator, painter and author Norman Percevel Rockwell who died in 1978. Who is Norman Rockwell?ĭel Rey mentions a Norman Rockwell in the song and asks him to paint her “happy and blue”. This therefore makes us believe that the lyrics of this song are directed to an actual lover in Rey’s life. Owing to this, we strongly suspect that Del Rey is addressing that same man from her earlier song.
And in that song, she referred to herself as his “Venice b**ch”. That song contained autobiographical lyrics of an event that occurred between Rey and her real life lover. Why are we saying so? We say this because a few days before this song came out, Del Rey had released a song titled “ Mariners Apartment Complex”. “If you weren’t mine, I’d be jealous of your love.” But is this song autobiographical?ĭel Rey might have not yet said whether it is autobiographical or not. Having said all those sweet and romantic words to her lover, Del Rey ends the song by telling her lover that she’d be so jealous of his love had he not been hers. In that same line above, we also get the idea that despite their long distance relationship, they are able to make it work.
That’s how come she misses him on her lips. Of course whenever she’s touring, they can’t be together. The line above not only sheds some light on who her lover is (at least the work he does), but it also explains why distance keeps them apart from time to time. But who’s this lover Lana can’t seem to get enough of?įrom the below line in the song’s post chorus, we get a fair idea of her lover’s profession. However, the narrator (Del Rey) is now back in town and is inviting her lover to come over. The lyrics above from the third verse of the song go to support the earlier statement of distance separating the lovers at some point. From the line above (which is the first line of the song’s chorus), it is clear that at some point, distance briefly separated the narrator from her lover.
