"Lust for Life" is a song by Lana Del Rey featuring The Weeknd. It is the title track from Del Rey's upcoming fifth studio album and fourth major-label studio album. It was co-written with The Weeknd, Max Martin and Rick Nowels and co-produced with Nowels, Kieron Menzies and Dean Reid. The song was officially released as the second single from Lust for Life on April 19, 2017.
Background[]
The song was registered at ASCAP under Del Rey's name during March 2017, with The Weeknd credited as a co-writer under his real name Abel Tesfaye.[1] After the song was registered, Del Rey teased the collboration on March 26, when she tweeted "X💕O",[2] The Weeknd's signature logo, and she also teased it when she included the same 'XO' logo in the Lust for Life album trailer. The song was officially released on April 19, 2017, after being premiered worldwide on BBC Radio 1.[3] "Lust for Life" is the first track Del Rey has released that features another artist.
Writing and production[]
In an interview with Courtney Love for Dazed Magazine, Del Rey opened up about writing the song and working with producer Max Martin and stated: "So basically, "Lust for Life" was the first song I wrote for the record, but it was kind of a Rubik’s Cube. I felt like it was a big song but... it wasn’t right. I don’t usually go back and re-edit things that much, because the songs end up sort of being what they are, but this one song I kept going back to. I really liked the title. I liked the verse. John Janick was like, ‘Why don’t we just go over and see what Max Martin thinks?’ So, I flew to Sweden and showed him the song. He said that he felt really strongly that the best part was the verse and that he wanted to hear it more than once, so I should think about making it the chorus. So I went back to Rick Nowels’ place the next day and I was like, ‘Let’s try and make the verse the chorus,’ and we did, and it sounded perfect. That’s when I felt like I really wanted to hear Abel sing the chorus, so he came down and rewrote a little bit of it. But then I was feeling like it was missing a little bit of the Shangri-Las element, so I went back for a fourth time and layered it up with harmonies. Now I’m finally happy with it."[4] During and interview with BBC Radio 1's MistaJam while premiering the song she stated that: "I really felt like [The Weeknd] just added so much to it — it was the perfect track for him to join me on."
Commercial performance[]
Upon release, "Lust for Life" was a success for Del Rey commercially. The song quickly went to #1 on the Billboard + Twitter Trending 140 chart,[5] becoming her second consecutive single from Lust for Life to do so, and in less than 24 hours the official audio gained over 4.7 million views on YouTube. The track also peaked at #3 on the Worldwide iTunes Song Charts.

Lyrics[]
[Lana Del Rey]:
Climb up the H of the Hollywood sign (Yeah)
In these stolen moments, the world is mine (doo-wop, doo-wop)
There's nobody here, just us together (shoo-wop, shoo-wop)
Keeping me hot, like July forever
'Cause we're the masters of our own fate
We're the captains of our own souls
There's no way for us to come back
'Cause boy, we're goin', boy, we're goin'
And I was like
Take off, take off
Take off all your clothes
Take off, take off
Take off all your clothes
Take off, take off
Take off all of your clothes
[The Weeknd]:
They say only the good die young
That just ain't right
'Cause we're having too much fun
Too much fun tonight
Yeah
[Lana Del Rey & The Weeknd]:
And our lust for life, and our lust for life
And our lust for life, and our lust for life
Keeps us alive, keeps us alive
Keeps us alive, keeps us alive
And our lust for life, and our lust for life
And our lust for life, and our lust for life
Keeps us alive, keeps us alive
Keeps us alive, keeps us alive
[Lana Del Rey]:
We dance on the H of the Hollywood sign (Yeah)
Till we run out of breath
[Lana Del Rey & The Weeknd]:
Gotta dance til we die (doo-wop, doo-wop)
[Lana Del Rey]:
My boyfriend's back and he's cooler than ever (shoo-wop, shoo-wop)
There's no more night
[Lana Del Rey & The Weeknd]:
Blue skies forever
[The Weeknd]:
'Cause we're the masters of our own fate
We're the captains of our own souls
So there's no need for us to hesitate
We're all alone, let's take control
And I was like
Take off, take off
Take off all your clothes
Take off, take off
Take off all your clothes
Take off, take off
Take off all of your clothes
[Lana Del Rey]:
They say only the good die young
That just ain't right
'Cause we're having too much fun
Too much fun tonight
[The Weeknd]:
Yeah
[Lana Del Rey & The Weeknd]:
And our lust for life, and our lust for life
And our lust for life, and our lust for life
Keeps us alive, keeps us alive
Keeps us alive, keeps us alive
And our lust for life, and our lust for life
And our lust for life, and our lust for life
Keeps us alive, keeps us alive
Keeps us alive, keeps us alive
[Lana Del Rey]:
My boyfriend's back and he's cooler than ever
There's no more night
[The Weeknd]:
Blue skies forever
[Lana Del Rey]:
I told you twice
In our love letter
There's no stopping now
[Lana Del Rey & The Weeknd]:
Green lights forever
[Lana Del Rey]:
And I was like
Take off, take off
Take off all your clothes
Take off, take off
Take off all your clothes
Take off, take off
Take off all of your clothes
[Lana Del Rey & The Weeknd]:
And our lust for life, and our lust for life
And our lust for life, and our lust for life
Keeps us alive, keeps us alive
Keeps us alive, keeps us alive
And our lust for life, and our lust for life
And our lust for life, and our lust for life
Keeps us alive, keeps us alive
Keeps us alive, keeps us alive
