LANA DEL REY - NATIONAL ANTHEM (4 VERSIONS LAYERED) _TOP_

In the chorus, Del Rey sings, "Tell me I'm your national anthem / Red, white, blue's in the sky / Summer's in the air, baby, heaven's in your eyes."[2] At the close of the recording is a multi-layered narrative treatment.[2] The introduction features the classic rendition "Happy Birthday Mr. President" as performed by Marilyn Monroe.[2] Unlike the other songs on Born to Die, Del Rey employs an alternative rapping technique, hip hop beat and heavy basslines, similar to that of "Off to the Races"[3] and "Diet Mountain Dew".[4] Pitchfork Media said the rapping technique was almost "chatting".[4]
