Another week, another Lana Del Rey leak. It's been a bad summer for the "Young & Beautiful" singer in terms of keeping unreleased songs, well, unreleased. After two strings of mega-leaks hit the web in mid-July and the Lady Gaga diss track "So Legit" turned Little Monsters against Del Rey, things quieted down for a bit. Now, however, a new (old?) Lana Del Rey song "Behind Closed Doors" leaked.
Unlike "Black Beauty," "Maha Maha" or even "So Legit," the new track is a grand departure from Del Rey's usual, pouty and slow-burning music. The sexy "Behind Closed Doors" features Del Rey boasting that she wants to be thrown around "like a pizza pie" and maintaining that she stays with her man because he knows how to satisfy.
"Everybody saying you're no good for me, / But they don't see the dirty stuff you do to me, / I only shout a little but you give me more, / Yeah, behind closed doors," she taunts in the sexy song.
"Behind Closed Doors" has a more modern pop edge to it, compared to much of Del Rey's vintage, throwback catalogue. The backbeat is a stomping, electronic-twinged accompaniment, and the slight tempo increase in the chorus gives the song a fun-filled flavor and life not seen often from Del Rey.
Listen to "Behind Closed Doors" below.
The song originally was unleashed on the Internet earlier this week, with the source unknown. Following a string of unreleased material getting unofficial releases, Del Rey has yet to comment on the leaks, including the controversial "So Legit." Instead, the gangster Nancy Sinatra has been promoting her upcoming short film "Tropico."
