Right after a tour in support of Did You Know That There’s a Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd – in which she visited West Viriginia – Lana Del Rey has offered up a surprise cover of John Denver's classic "Take Me Home, Country Roads."
Del Rey produced the cover with the help of Zachary Dawes. The cover may come as a surprise to casual fans, but not to those familiar with Del Rey's latest album. This fall, Del Rey went on a U.S. tour focusing on the South and Appalachia. The run ended in West Virginia’s capital, Charleston. And, on Did You Know That There’s a Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd’s “The Grants,” Del Rey sings twice, “Like ‘Rocky Mountain High,’ the way John Denver sings.”

The musician recently covered another American classic: the Righteous Brothers' “Unchained Melody.” She performed it at Graceland for NBC's holiday special, Christmas at Graceland, which was televised Wednesday night (November 29).
In 2024, Del Rey could pick up her first Grammy win. She’s up for Album of the Year, Song of the Year, Best Alternative Music Performance, Best Pop Duo/Group Performance, and Best Alternative Music Album. The nominations are largely for Did You Know That There’s a Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd and the single “A&W.” Back in September, she snagged her first VMA for Best Alternative Video. (She won for her song "Candy Necklace.")
