Lana Del Rey takes home Best Pop Vocal Album honors! She shared the news of her new single “Bluebird,” which she wrote and produced alongside Luke Laird and Drew Erickson. This melancholic fingerpicked ballad, tinged with Del Rey’s trademark sense of nostalgic ennui, comes on the heels of her enchanting recent single “Henry, Come On.” With its recent release, “Bluebird” is expected to be the second single from her new album.
Though previously dubbed “Lasso” and then “The Right Person Will Stay,” the new album has led to tons of speculation among fans. Though it was seemingly to be released May 21, the album’s current status is up in the air. Just as she began to share her hopes and dreams for the timeline, Del Rey would respond with “it’s not gonna come on time.”
“Bluebird” showcases a different side of Del Rey. This timing of this release is very important. Its release comes just a week before she’ll take the stage again at the Stagecoach festival — where, we imagine, expect to hear all this new work live for the first time.
All the more reason for excitement — and perhaps a sign that we’re close to Del Rey’s next album release. Needless to say, fans are anticipating the arrival of the project with electrifying enthusiasm. They’re already counting the days until she spreads her wings in the new directions her sound and themes are sure to take!
