![]() ![]() It seems like just yesterday the queen of floral crowns bestowed upon us her first masterpiece of an album Paradise. Lana Del Rey has an entire library of unreleased songs. After singing a verse from the song, Del Rey said she intends on releasing it officially in the (hopefully near) future. Meaning, there’s another unreleased version of this track out there in the ether. “Hollywood” Lana Del Rey Unreleased Masterpostĭel Rey acknowledged this song during an Instagram Live last year after a fan asked about 'Hollywood Dead,' a different unreleased track: “Actually, there was a song, ‘Hollywood,’ that got leaked with the wrong production,” she said. Is there anything that better embodies fairy-tale romance and youth than a high school dance? The song has also gone by the name “Dreams” and “Teenage Wasteland.” Of course, Del Rey would have a song about prom. It’s actually upbeat! And happy! And includes the signature Del Rey message of loving someone you probably shouldn’t, but not caring about the consequences. Most Del Rey songs have a singularly morose quality, but this doesn't. 'No man can keep me together,” she sings. It also happens to be one of her saddest. Nothing more Lana than that.ĭel Rey stans will likely tell you this is one of her favorite unreleased songs. It’s a stalker sociopath song set to a trip-hop beat. This song was recorded as one of the first tracks for Del Rey’s second studio album but didn’t make the cut. This song veers more Motown than anything we’ve heard from Del Rey before but still shows off her signature croon. Then again, it’s also nice to hear artists experiment with different sounds. And you know what? Sometimes consistency is nice. This song, recorded in 2010, embodies the 'live fast, die young' quality of so many Del Rey songs. “Get Drunk” starts out with Del Rey declaring: “I am sleeping with your best friend.” Some fans have speculated that the song is about the drinking problem she had as a teenager as the bulk of it finds the singer begging someone to come drink with her. In a 2010 interview, Del Rey described this song as “an all American relationship gone wrong” which, to be honest, could be used to summarize a majority of her songs. It’s interesting to think where her career might be had this song been the world’s first introduction to the singer. “Video Games” propelled her into the spotlight, but “Kinda Outta Luck” is no less spectacular. This song was released around the same time as “Video Games” and comes with a similarly homemade-looking music video. ![]() And just like the ineffable quality of a rose, a Lana Del Rey song by any other name still sounds as sweet. Ahead, we bring you some of our favorites, which span all the way back to her MySpace and Lizzy Grant days. Rumor has it, there are more than 200 other unreleased Del Rey tracks out in the world, which is a bigger collection of songs than her official releases, if you can believe it. And, just last week, she herself shared an old demo of the song “Elvis” from 2008. Last year, she said that she was thinking about putting together an album dedicated to the songs that came out before their time. And while Del Rey’s never been a fan of leaks, even she seems to understand why these releases are so important to her fans. Thankfully, she also has a legion of fans who have made it their mission to not only keep track of these unreleased tracks but upload them to the internet. To know Lana Del Rey is to know she has a lot of unreleased songs. I was shocked when I found out that songs like: hundred dollar bill, aviation, mermaid hotel and f.
