“我最近才意识到我说了很多话，“拉娜德雷(Lana Del Rey)在两人为 《访谈》杂志进行的新对话中告诉比莉艾利什 (Billie Eilish)。谈话的时问到了，Del Rey 也放奔了她的新单曲“A&W”，这首单曲以7分13秒的时长记录为有史以来最长的 Lana 歌曲之一。备受期待的单曲，又名“American Whore',从Del Rey 华丽的70 年代流行歌曲开始，低声的歌词类似于意识流。（“我从9岁起就没有做过侧手翻/我已经很久很久没有见到我妈妈了，“她开场。）然后，在进行到一半时，合成贝司响起，歌曲开始旋转，Del Rey 说唱“Jimmy Jimmy Cocoa Puff ”并宣称，“你妈妈打电话来/我告诉她你他妈的很开心！”让女孩说她的废话。
七分钟的奥德赛是Del Rey 的第九张专辑Did you know that there's a tunnel under Ocean Blvd 的最新作品，将于 3 月 24 日发行。正如她在采访中告诉 Eilish 的那样，这张专辑最初有一个更长的标题：你知道吗Ocean Blvd pearl 下面有一条隧道 看我按铃 变态救生员。Del Rey 说她只告诉她的设计师 Neil Krug 原标题，但当他设计专辑封面时，“我们意识到将六个标题合而为一可能有点过分了。” Del Rey 继续说道，“那真是精神错乱的一天，因为我当时想，‘我愿意通过一些奇怪的、荒谬的头衔把一切都烧毁吗？’”
至于专辑的其余部分，Del Rey 承认这些歌曲“冗长”，就像她为专辑封面剪下的那张裸照一样“暴露”。她说这张专辑开始是与她传闻中的前任迈克·赫莫萨（Mike Hermosa）的合作，迈克·赫莫萨是一位会弹吉他的电影摄影师，德尔雷最终与德鲁·埃里克森和扎克·道斯等合作者进入了工作室。与此同时，她写的最后一首歌是“玛格丽特”，是为她的另一位长期合作者杰克安东诺夫和他的未婚妻玛格丽特奎利写的，并由他的乐队 Bleachers 演唱。“我当时想，‘你知道吗？我想为他写一首歌，'”Del Rey 说。只是不要读得太深。“当我做 Norman Fucking Rockwell 的时候！ 这是关于世界的建设，而这是直接的共鸣，”她补充道。
(“I just recently realized that I talk a lot,” Lana Del Rey told Billie Eilish in the pair’s new conversation for Interview magazine. And what a time for that conversation to arrive, with Del Rey also dropping her new single “A&W,” which clocks in as one of the longest Lana songs ever at seven minutes, 13 seconds. The highly anticipated single, a.k.a. “American Whore,” starts in Del Rey’s lush, ’70s-pop sweet-spot, with murmured lyrics resembling a stream of consciousness. (“I haven’t done a cartwheel since I was 9 / I haven’t seen my mother in a long, long time,” she opens.) Then, halfway through, a synth bass kicks in and the song pivots, with Del Rey rapping “Jimmy Jimmy Cocoa Puff” and declaring, “Your mom called / I told her you’re fucking up big time!” Let the girl talk her shit.
The seven-minute odyssey is the latest offering from Did you know that there’s a tunnel under Ocean Blvd, Del Rey’s ninth album, out March 24. The album, as she told Eilish in Interview, originally had an even longer title: Did you know that there’s a tunnel under Ocean Blvd pearl watch me on ring a bell psycho lifeguard. Del Rey said she only told her designer, Neil Krug, the original title, but when he designed an album cover, “We realized that maybe it was a bit much to have six titles in one.” Del Rey continued, “That was a really psychotic day because I was like, ‘Am I willing to literally burn everything down to the ground by having some strange, nonsensical title?’”
As for the rest of the album, Del Rey admitted the songs are “wordy” in a way that’s “revealing in the same way” as the topless photo she scrapped for the album cover. She said the album started as a collaboration with her rumored ex Mike Hermosa, a cinematographer who would mess around on guitar, and whom Del Rey eventually got into a studio with collaborators like Drew Erickson and Zach Dawes. The last song she wrote, meanwhile, was “Margaret,” for her other longtime collaborator Jack Antonoff and his fiancée Margaret Qualley, and featuring his band Bleachers. “I was like, ‘You know what? I want to write a song for him,’” Del Rey said. Just don’t read too far into it. “When I did Norman Fucking Rockwell! it was about world-building, whereas this was straight vibing,” she added.)
