Lana Del Rey wrote
Violet Bent Backwards Over the Grass, which is a collection of sweet, short, and touching poems. There are over thirty poems in the book; some of the titles include “Happy Paradise is Very Fragile,” “Past the Bushes,” “Cypress Thriving,” “Tessa DiPietro,” and others. She wrote the poems in a very honest and authentic manner.
The poet has good control over her rhyme and rhythm, which allows her to reveal herself while holding the power. Her distinguishing tone and language will keep you invested in the poems. The poetry is lovely, with intense romantic themes and a flush of joy, along with some bits of sadness.
Be sure to expect feelings of wanderlust and briefness that she also shows in her songs. In her poems, you can notice that she isn’t happy, yet she is okay with that. The book is atmospheric and features vivid writing, making it enjoyable.
Del Rey also wrote
Honeymoon, which is the perfect songbook for piano players and avid Del Rey fans. It features 14 songs, all arranged for voice, piano, and guitar chord frames. Some of the songs include “Don’t Let Me Be Misunderstood,” “God Knows I Tried,” and “Terrence Loves You,” among others. Her music is elevated, and its arrangements rhyme with the original electronic tracks. It’s an amazing album to listen to over the summer. The photography and lyrics are both beautiful, and the only thing you can wish for is that she included more songs.
She also wrote another songbook,
Born to Die, which features vocal, piano, and guitar arrangements of her hit singles “Video Games,” “This is What Makes Us Girls,” “Million Dollar Man,” “Dark Paradise,” and many more. The edition gets deep to capture some great songs, and it would be a thoughtful gift for a Lana Del Rey fan and a piano player. You can find the lyrics of her songs in this songbook.
