Sobre el álbum

"Ultraviolence" es el tercer álbum de la cantante y compositora Lana Del Rey. Fue publicado el 13 de junio de 2014 bajo los sellos Polydor e Interscope y debutó en el número uno en las listas de numerosos países, incluyendo Estados Unidos y Reino Unido. Durante su primera semana en las tiendas acumuló casi un millón de copias vendidas.

Lana Del Rey trabajó de forma intensa para este álbum con el productor y miembro de la banda The Black Keys, Dan Auerbach. Otros productores se sumaron al proyecto, como Paul Epworth, Greg Kurstin, Daniel Heath y Rick Nowels, quienes se encargaron de algunos de los temas.

La sensación global de este álbum de Lana Del Rey es un mayor uso de las guitarras, dotándolo de un sonido más potente que en los trabajos anteriores de la cantante estadounidense.



El álbum debutó en lo más alto de la lista Billboard 200, a lo que contribuyeron las críticas positivas recibidas por la cohesión de los temas en un álbum conceptual.

El álbum se sitúa a medio camino entre el rock psicodélico y el dream pop, con inclusión de toques de blues rock y soft rock.

La canción que abre el álbum, "Cruel World", es un largo tema de más de seis minutos, con reminiscencias del rock clásico y de la que Lana Del Rey consideró su canción favorita de las que incluye el álbum "Ultraviolence".

"West Coast" fue el primer sencillo extraído del álbum y fue lanzado el 14 de abril de 2014, solamente como descarga digital. Compuesto por Lana del Rey y Rick Nowels como una balada de rock psicodélico, fue producido por Dan Auerbach. Nos cuenta la historia de una mujer dividida entre el amor y la ambición. El vídeo en blanco y negro que acompaña al sencillo fue grabado entre California y Venecia por el director Vincent Haycock y fue nominado a la Mejor fotografía en los MTV Video Music Awards.



El segundo sencillo apareció el 26 de mayo de 2014 bajo el título de "Shades of Cool", con la misma producción que el anterior y que recibió alabanzas por parte de la crítica. El videoclip, dirigido por Jake Nava, es una especie de homenaje al cine negro con el trasfondo de una historia de amor.

El sencillo que da título al álbum, "Ultraviolence", fue coescrito por Lana Del Rey y Daniel Heath, contando para la producción con Dan Auerbach. El vídeo fue realizado por el director de origen italiano Francesco Carrozzini, quien lo grabó con un iPhone.
Se extrajeron dos temas más, "Brooklyn Baby" y "Black Beauty", lanzados en junio y diciembre del mismo año.

El álbum se convirtió en el primero de Lana Del Rey en alcanzar el puesto más alto en las listas de Estados Unidos, consiguiendo vender más de 180.000 copias en su primera semana.

    Letra

    Share my body and my mind with you, That's all over now. Did what I had to do, 'Cause it's so far past me now. Share my body and my life with you, That's way over now. There's not more I can do, You're so famous now. Got your bible, got your gun, And you like to party and have fun. And I like my candy and your women, I'm finally happy now that you're gone. Put my little red party dress on, Everybody knows that I'm the best, I'm crazy. Get a little bit of bourbon in ya, Get a little bit suburban and go crazy. Because you're young, you're wild, you're free, You're dancin' circles around me, You're fuckin' crazy. Oh, oh, you're crazy for me. I shared my body and my mind with you, That's all over now. I did what I had to do, I found another anyhow. Share my body and my mind with you, That's all over now. I did what I had to do, I could see you leaving now. I got your bible and your gun, And you love to party and have fun. And I love your women and all of your heroin, And I'm so happy now that you're gone. Put my little red party dress on, Everybody knows that I'm a mess, I'm crazy, yeah-yeah. Get a little bit of bourbon in ya, Go a little bit suburban and go crazy, yeah-yeah. Because you're young, you're wild, you're free, You're dancin' circles around me, You're fuckin' crazy. Oh, oh, you're crazy for me. Got your bible and your gun, You like your women and you like fun. I like my candy and your heroin, And I'm so happy, so happy now you're gone. Put my little red party dress on, Everybody knows that I'm a mess, I'm crazy, yeah-yeah. Get a little bit of bourbon in ya, Get a little bit suburban and go crazy, yeah-yeah. 'Cause you're young, you're wild, you're free, You're dancin' circles around me, You're fuckin' crazy. Oh, oh, you're crazy for me. Oh, oh, you're crazy for me.

    All the pretty stars shine for you, my love. Am I that girl that you dream of? All those little times you said that I'm your girl. You make me feel like your whole world.

All those special times I spent with you, my love, They don't mean shit compared to all your drugs. But I don't really mind I've got much more than that. Like my memories, I don't need that.

  9. My Way Up To The Top3:32
  10. Old Money4:31

    Letra

    Blue hydrangea, cold cash, divine, Cashmere, cologne and white sunshine. Red racing cars, Sunset and Vine, The kids were young and pretty. Where have you been? Where did you go? Those summer nights seem long ago, And so is the girl you used to call, The Queen of New York City. But if you send for me you know I'll come, And if you call for me you know I'll run. I'll run to you, I'll run to you, I'll run, run, run. I'll come to you, I'll come to you, I'll come, come, come. Ohh, Ohh. Ahh, Ahh. The power of youth is on my mind, Sunsets, small town, I'm out of time. Will you still love me when I shine, From words but not from beauty? My father's love was always strong, My mother's glamour lives on and on, Yet still inside I felt alone, For reasons unknown to me. But if you send for me you know I'll come, And if you call for me you know I'll run. I'll run to you, I'll run to you, I'll run, run, run. I'll come to you, I'll come to you, I'll come, come, come. Ohh, Ohh. Ahh, Ahh. And if you call, I'll run, run, run, If you change your mind, I'll come, come, come. Ohh, Ohh. Ahh, Ahh. Blue hydrangea, cold cash, divine, Cashmere, cologne and hot sunshine. Red racing cars, Sunset and Vine, And we were young and pretty.
  11. The Other Woman3:02

    Letra

    The other woman Has time to manicure her nails The other woman Is perfect where her rival fails And she's never seen with pin curls In her hair Anywhere The other woman Enchants her clothes with French perfume The other woman Keeps fresh cut flowers in each room There are never toys that's scattered Everywhere And when her old man comes to call He finds her waiting like a lonesome queen 'Cause to be by her side It's such a change from old routine But The other woman Will always cry herself to sleep The other woman Will never have his love to keep And as the years go by The other woman Will spend Her life alone Alone Alone
