Manhattan singer-songwriter Lana Del Rey has treated fans to a brooding new cinematic video featuring Jon Batiste for their collaboration song, 'Candy Necklace'.

The song is the first to get the video treatment from Del Rey's latest album, Did You Know That There's a Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd.

The glamorous greyscale video features Del Rey and Baptiste as classic Hollywood stars in Los Angeles, with shots of Del Rey through camera finders with the production crew, in the make-up chair and alongside Batiste at the piano.

The video also features a cameo from the legendary John Waters, lending the music video more cinematic charm. While the two musicians imitate the swagger and charisma of stars gone by, the behind the scenes peek at shooting the clip that the viewer gets speaks to something deeper in the song itself, which is stretched out to almost double its original runtime.

Baptiste's slow, melodic piano accompanies Del Rey's stripped back voice, which is comfortable and confident throughout.

Halfway through the video, production captures the singer explaining the entire concept of the video, where she says “why it was all supposed to be behind the scenes was because all these women who, like, changed their name, changed their hair, like me and stuff. It’s like they all fell into these different snakeholes. So the whole point is like, how do you learn from that and not fall into your own thing?”

Del Rey illustrates the old Hollywood aesthetic to seemingly tie to her own legacy - she could change her identity for the purpose of the song to serve it better, yet she doesn’t want to be trapped within any invented self. Instead, the various viewpoints of a stripped back film production scene display how draining it is to put on that façade. The video is quite personal, and keeps the viewer close throughout the runtime.

Lana Del Rey released her ninth studio album, the captivating Did You Know That There's A Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd in late March earlier this year - receiving critical and commercial success.
