Lana Featured on Jonathan Wilson's New Album

Recommended Posts

She collabed with an artist who's actually an artist and not some shitty pop fraud like The Weaknd or Børing.

And although it's not a major collab, it's not something that's obviously just done for the credit.

I'm already sure all the bad taste pop twinks here will hate on it.


Just do it. Just do it - don't wait!

Idk if this is of interest to anyone else, but I think the last track of the album, "Mulholland Queen" could be about Lana. Here are some lyrics from it that made me think of her;

 

You were perched up on the ridge of town

Will you sing the secrets in all 12 keys?

Baby, you're so blue and wise

The baby's breath in a crown-like shape

I'm lost as we drive down the canyon road

With your tender smile and your pretty little dress

With your jazz in your heart

To Topanga / As we hear what the masters have sang us before

 

There's probably more but my boy mumbles a lot so this is what I got so far. Anyway, it's a beautiful song (whether it's about Lana or not).

I think you’re right. Flower crowns, Jazz, dress, queen, blue, topanga, it’s all here

I love his album more that Lust For Life. Sunset Blvd, Living W Myself, Mulholland Queen, There's a Light are masterpieces, Honeymoon vibes all aroud.

I want him to produce her next record. :worship:

I totally forgot about this until now but I just listened and it’s a nice song. Obviously I wish Lana’s part was bigger because she’s the reason I listened, but I understand that it’s not really a full feature.

Just thought I'd add this cute and interesting little bit from an interview he did...

 

What was it like having Lana Del Rey on the record, she's a good friend of yours?

Lana Del Rey was a huge part of the process, because during that time she was sort of like my sounding board for the different songs, and which songs to choose, and which way they should go and stuff. So I really dig her intuition about these types of things. Then she showed up on some songs.

God Lana needs to be a producer

 

Thanks for sharing!

According to the lyrical booklet that came with the vinyl of Rare Birds I bought, her vocals are featured on Loving You and Living With Myself

 

Oh ! I can't hear her, where is she in this song ?

 

Edit : Maybe she's humming at 8:00
