Lana Del Rey - National Anthem (Demo)

Музыка

This is the first, more upbeat, version of the song that leaked on the Internet, not the official album version.
Lyrics:
Money is the anthem of success
So before we go out, what's your address?
I'm your national anthem
God, you're so handsome
Take me to the Hamptons
Bugatti Veyron
He loves to romance 'em
Reckless abandon
Holdin' me for ransom
Upper echelon
He says to be cool but, I don't know how yet
Wind in my hair
Hand on the back of my neck
I said, "Can we party later on?"
He said, "Yes, yes." (Yes)
Tell me I'm your National Anthem
(Booyah, baby, bow down
Making me say wow now)
Tell me I'm your National Anthem
(Sugar, sugar, how now,
Take your body downtown)
Red, white, blue is in the skies
Summer's in the air and baby
Heaven's in your eyes
I'm your National Anthem
Money is the reason we exist
Everybody knows it, it's a fact
Kiss, kiss
I sing the National Anthem
While I'm standin' over your body
Hold you like a python
And you can't keep your hands off me or your pants on
See what you've done to me?
King of Chevron
You said to be cool but, I'm already coolest
I said to get real, don't you know who you're dealing with?
Um, do you think you'll buy me lots of diamonds?
("Yes, of course I will my darling")
Tell me I'm your National Anthem
(Booyah, baby, bow down
Making me say wow now)
Tell me I'm your National Anthem
(Sugar, sugar, how now,
Take your body downtown)
Red, white, blue's in the skies
Summer's in the air and baby
Heaven's in your eyes
I'm your National Anthem
It's a love story for the new age
For the sixth page
We're on a quick, sick rampage
Wining and dining, drinking and driving
Excessive buying, overdose and dying
On our drugs and our love and our dreams and our rage
Blurring the lines between real and the fake
Dark and lonely, I need somebody to hold me
He will do very well, I can tell, I can tell
Keep me safe in his belltower hotel.
Money is the anthem of success
So put on mascara, and your party dress
I'm your National Anthem
Boy, put your hands up
Give me a standing ovation
Boy, you have landed
Babe in the land of
Sweetness and danger --
Queen of Saigon.
Tell me I'm your National Anthem
(Booyah, baby, bow down
Making me say wow now)
Tell me I'm your National Anthem
(Sugar, sugar, how now,
Take your body downtown)
Red, white, blue's in the skies
Summer's in the air and baby
Heaven's in your eyes
I'm your National Anthem
Money is the anthem
God, you're so handsome
Money is the anthem
Of success
Money is the anthem
God, you're so handsome
Money is the anthem
Of success
Money is the anthem
God, you're so handsome
Money is the anthem
Of success
Money is the anthem
God, you're so handsome
Money is the anthem
Of success

    Lyrics: Money is the anthem of success So before we go out, what's your address? I'm your national anthem God, you're so handsome Take me to the Hamptons, Bugatti Veyron He loves to romance 'em, reckless abandon Holding me for ransom, upper echelon He says to be cool but, I don't know how yet Wind in my hair, hand on the back of my neck I said, "Can we party later on?" He said, "Yes, yes, yes..." Tell me I'm your national anthem Booyah, baby, bow, down, making me so wow now Tell me I'm your national anthem Sugar, sugar, how now? Take your body downtown Red, white, blue is in the sky Summer's in the air and baby, heaven's in your eyes I'm your national anthem Money is the reason we exist Everybody knows it, it's a fact (Kiss, kiss) I sing the national anthem while I'm standin' Over your body, hold you like a python And you can't keep your hands off me, or your pants on See what you've done to me, King of Chevron He said to be cool but, I'm already coolest I said to get real, "Don't you know who you're dealin' with?" "Um, do you think you'll buy me lots of diamonds?" Tell me I'm your national anthem Booyah, baby, bow, down, makin' me so wow now Tell me I'm your national anthem Sugar, sugar, how now? Take your body downtown Red, white, blue is in the sky Summer's in the air and baby, heaven's in your eyes I'm your national anthem It's a love story for the new age, for the sixth page We're on a quick, sick rampage Winin' and dinin', drinkin' and drivin' Excessive buyin', overdose and dyin' On our drugs, and our love, and our dreams, and our rage Blurrin' the lines between real and the fake Dark and lonely, I need somebody to hold me He will do very well, I can tell, I can tell Keep me safe in his bell tower hotel Money is the anthem of success So put on mascara and your party dress I'm your national anthem, boy, put your hands up Give me a standin' ovation Boy, you have landed, babe, in the land of Sweetness and danger, Queen of Saigon Tell me I'm your national anthem Booyah, baby, bow, down, makin' me so wow now Tell me I'm your national anthem Sugar, sugar, how now? Take your body downtown Red, white, blue is in the sky Summer's in the air and baby, heaven's in your eyes I'm your national anthem Money is the anthem, God, you're so handsome Money is the anthem of success Money is the anthem, God, you're so handsome Money is the anthem of success Money is the anthem, God, you're so handsome Money is the anthem of success Money is the anthem, God, you're so handsome Money is the anthem of success

    So, let's talk about the fact WHY almost everybody here supposes this demo is BETTER than the official version. My opinion WON'T really go for this. I have to admit that this version is good and kinda catchy. But with a general look, releasing the OFFICIAL version is a brilliant choice for Lana. That "modern and free American spirit" we can all notice in her songs isn't the true soul of this song - National Anthem. If you gain deep insights into the meaning of this song, you will have to reconsider. The story inside this song is like: "that girl who sees richness and money and fame shining inside her, with that wealthy man who starts to introduce her to a glamourous and luxurious lifestyle. Gradually, she begins to be a part of that materialistic world, she has changed. And finally, she has completely lost herself in that lifestyle, in money, in diamonds, in fame, in drugs... She is the "Queen of Saigon", the "fallen" queen...". The song is actually symbolizing and evoking the "old heyday" history of that "Uncle Sam". About Saigon, it is the largest city in Vietnam which was invaded by the US during the period from 55' to 75' of the 20th century. Briefly, the land is full of wars, deaths, and severeness until 1975. So that explained the National Anthem's lyrics - 'the land of sweetness and danger'. Also, there's a line about Bell Tower Hotel, a vintage hotel, a historical proof witness throughout all the dark times of the city. But it's still standing after so many years, that's why she sang "Keep me safe in his Bell Tower Hotel". But Saigon is also a name of the past, it is no longer used because the history was too violent, tragic, and catastrophic, which makes that queen no longer exist. - She is now the queen of the past, of something that used to matter. The queen was replaced, it's gone but not forgotten. Lana ends up by mentioning a "love story of the new age". This is what the world has come to... People are obsessed with pop culture, fame, and "material belongings". This crazed world of the famous is glamorized and the people in the spotlight often forget what's real in the end, all they have done is ruined their own lives... - "We're on a quick, sick rampage Winin' and dinin', drinkin' and drivin' Excessive buyin' overdose and dyin' On our drugs and our love and our dreams and our rage Blurring the lines between real and the fake."- As you can see now, this song is way imbued with these nostalgic, reminiscent, and wistful feelings and concerns. First, the demo with these strong beats never goes along well with the lyrics and meaning. It also overpowers her voice and the instrumental sounds too "pop". Then if you just want something tuneful to listen to, yes, it's ok. But Lana's music is much more than that. It's music for the soul - music to feel to. Second, the official instrumental has absolutely encapsulated the "dark and lonely" melancholy of Lana's feelings and also the Heroic melody like a real "National Anthem". Also with the music video, then we can see them all. This makes "national anthem" one of her best songs. From all of the reasons and analyses above, the official version is actually better in all aspects. *This is just my personal opinion* ____Thanks for reading___
