First Listen: Lana Del Rey "National Anthem"

When you saw this post you probably thought either:
a) holy smokes, enough of Lana Del Rey already, or
b) hell yes! Just post the whole album already!

Only weeks until the release of Born To Die, the debut album from Lana Del Rey, and another track arrived this morning in my inbox. This time, it’s the record’s final track “National Anthem”. No, it’s not the country’s patriotic tune, nor a take on the Radiohead masterpiece. The track does in fact have an anthemic hook (“Tell me I’m your national anthem”), but the verses are Ke$ha inspired talk/rap combined with Del Rey’s signature pouty vocal.
