+ | After feeling dissatisfied with the home production of the video for "[[Video Games (song)|Video Games]]", and with a budget given by her new label, [[Interscope Records|Interscope]], Del Rey shot the video for "Born to Die" in the royal Fontainebleau Palace in October, 2011. She wrote the treatment for the video, and presented it to filmographer and fellow musician [[Yoann Lemoine]], in late 2011. He rewrote the concept, known as ''"The Lonely Queen"'', which featured her in heaven after dying and remembering her and her lover together, into a more reasonable concept. |
+ | |||
+ | An alternate version of the music video surfaced December, 2019. This video was sent to MTV UK VH1 (Europe) for "We Love: The 10's" by Del Rey's team during 2012. It features various different takes and an abrupt introduction. |

Revision as of 02:53, 30 December 2019
"Born to Die" is a song written by Lana Del Rey and Justin Parker and produced by Parker and Emile Haynie in 2011. Taken from Del Rey's first major-label album of the same title, Born to Die, the song served as the album's second single, it was officially released worldwide on December 30, 2011.
Writing and inspiration
The song was written by Del Rey and Justin Parker after the success of "Video Games".
Composition
Musically, "Born to Die" is an apocalyptic down-tempo ballad with hip-hop influences. It was composed in the key of E minor and at a tempo of 86 beats per minute. It features similar instrumentation to "Video Games", but focuses more heavily on the hip-hop influenced beat also featured in "Blue Jeans". The song contains the use of male background vocals much like in songs such as "National Anthem", "Blue Jeans" and "Diet Mountain Dew". It samples "Long Red" by Leslie West and a 1972 live performance of the song. There are two known demos that have been leaked. One was produced by Haynie while the other one by Parker. A demo beat produced by Haynie was leaked on SoundCloud in 2017.
Critical reception
Following the release of the single, Robert Copsey of Digital Spy commented, "we thought it would be near-impossible for Lana to top the chilling 'Video Games', but her new cut – the title track from her forthcoming album – may just have out-haunted its predecessor."[1] Laura Snapes of NME considered the song not "quite as flooring as 'Video Games', but then that song is fairly extraordinary",[2] while Entertainment Weekly contributor Grady Smith considered it a "beautifully dour tune".[3] Pryia Elan also of NME said the song "is a grower and whilst not as pitch perfect as 'Video Games', it's pretty damn fine".[4] Aaron-Spencer Charles of Metro noted "Lana Del Rey's Born to Die is a slow yet strong song, with Lana singing about her relationship experience over an orchestra. The calm tone of Del Rey's voice sets sad-love mood really well."[5] Tim Lee of musicOMH said the song is "essentially 'Video Games' with percussion", and noted that "her (alleged) agents clearly having stumbled upon a formula with which they can (allegedly) print money and (allegedly) further consign Lana's secretive, (allegedly) real debut LP to the annals of history. You didn't hear it from us, right?"[6]
Use in media
The song was used as the soundtrack in a trailer for the 2012 German film titled "Measuring the World" (German: Die Vermessung der Welt).[7]
Cross-references
- Del Rey has stated that the song is part of the "K" trilogy with "Blue Jeans" and "Video Games".
- The phrase "Friday night" also appears in "Body Electric".
- "Roses" and "Summertime Sadness" also reference kissing hard.
- "It's like I told you" is also a phrase found in "Freak".
- The theme of Del Rey worrying that her lover won't be in heaven also appears in "Young and Beautiful".
- "I can see but once I was blind" is a similar lyric to "I was blind before I saw the world through your eyes" from "TV in Black & White".
- Getting high is a common subject in Del Rey's songs, such as "Brooklyn Baby", "High by the Beach" and "Your Girl", amongst others.
- "I'm hoping at the gates they'll tell me that you're mine" is a similar lyric to "gargoyles, standing, at the front of your gate; trying to tell me to wait" from "Bel Air".
- The line "come take a walk on the wild side" stems from the Lou Reed song "Walk on the Wild Side".
- The "wild side" is also mentioned in "Take Me to Paris".
- In the beginning of the song, the sample of Del Rey singing "why?" is later reused in "Art Deco" and "Cherry".
Accolades
"Born to Die" was nominated in 2012 MTV Video Awards in the category "Best Art Direction" and won UK Music Video Awards in the category "Best Pop Video - International".[8][9]

Background
After feeling dissatisfied with the home production of the video for "Video Games", and with a budget given by her new label, Interscope, Del Rey shot the video for "Born to Die" in the royal Fontainebleau Palace in October, 2011. She wrote the treatment for the video, and presented it to filmographer and fellow musician Yoann Lemoine, in late 2011. He rewrote the concept, known as "The Lonely Queen", which featured her in heaven after dying and remembering her and her lover together, into a more reasonable concept.
An alternate version of the music video surfaced December, 2019. This video was sent to MTV UK VH1 (Europe) for "We Love: The 10's" by Del Rey's team during 2012. It features various different takes and an abrupt introduction.
Description
The video depicts the "live fast, die young" mantra Del Rey has used throughout her career. It begins with Del Rey embracing her lover, played by Bradley Soileau, with an American flag behind them. Then Del Rey is shown, in "heaven", sitting in a throne with two tigers next to her. Interlaced clips of her and her lover are shown throughout clips of the castle, Del Rey in the throne, and Del Rey walking about the castle. Her lover and her meet at the castle, and begin to kiss on the hood of, and inside, a vintage Ford Mustang. The two then drive through the night before crashing. Soileau is shown holding a bloody corpse of Del Rey while the car is aflame behind them. Interlaced clips of them inside the castle, lying on a bed and standing against a wall, are also shown throughout the video.

Lyrics
Album version
Why?
Who me?
Why?
Feet don't fail me now
Take me to the finish line
Oh my heart it breaks every step that I take
But I'm hoping at the gates, they'll tell me that you're mine
Walking through the city streets
Is it by mistake or design?
I feel so alone on the Friday nights
Can you make it feel like home, if I tell you you're mine
It's like I told you, honey
Don't make me sad, don't make me cry
Sometimes love is not enough and the road gets tough
I don't know why
Keep making me laugh, let's go get high
The road is long, we carry on
Try to have fun in the meantime
Come and take a walk on the wild side
Let me kiss you hard in the pouring rain
You like your girls insane
Choose your last words
This is the last time
Cause you and I, we were born to die
Lost but now I am found
I can see but once I was blind
I was so confused as a little child
Tried to take what I could get
Scared that I couldn't find
All the answers honey
Don't make me sad, don't make me cry
Sometimes love is not enough and the road gets tough
I don't know why.
Keep making me laugh
Let's go get high
The road is long, we carry on
Try to have fun in the meantime
Come and take a walk on the wild side
Let me kiss you hard in the pouring rain
You like your girls insane
So, choose your last words, this is the last time
Cause you and I, we were born to die
We were born to die
We were born to die
Come and take a walk on the wild side
Let me kiss you hard in the pouring rain
You like your girls insane
So, don't make me sad, don't make me cry
Sometimes love is not enough and the road gets tough
I don't know why
Keep making me laugh, let's go get high
The road is long, we carry on
Try to have fun in the meantime
Come and take a walk on the wild side
Let me kiss you hard in the pouring rain
You like your girls insane
So, choose your last words
This is the last time
Cause you and I, we were born to die
We were born to die

Sometimes love is not enough and the road gets tough
I don't know why
Keep making me laugh, let's go get high
The road is long, we carry on
Try to have fun in the meantime
Come and take a walk on the wild side
Let me kiss you hard in the pouring rain
You like your girls insane (why?)
So, choose your last words, this is the last time
Cause you and I, we were born to die
(We were born to die)
(We were born to die)
(We were born to die)
(We were born to die)
(We were born to die)
(We were born to die)
(We were born to die)
(We were born to die)
(We were born to die)
Why?
(We were born to die)
(We were born to die)
Who me?
(We were born to die)
(We were born to die)
Why?
(We were born to die)
(We were born to die)
(We were born to die)
