Lana Del Rey Shares Piano Ballad ‘Let Me Love You Like a Woman’
After a month of teasing her next single, Lana Del Rey has officially released the piano-laced track “Let Me Love You Like a Woman.” The single is Del Rey’s first from her upcoming album, Chemtrails Over the Country Club, which she originally announced back in May. It features Del Rey’s classic vocal layering over delicate piano chords, feeling almost like it could’ve been a cut from 2019’s Norman Fucking Rockwell. And, as any Del Rey song should, it shows the artist flexing her pen, too, fresh off the release of her poetry book.
