Lana Del Rey Releases New Single ‘Henry, Come On’

Giddyup, Lana Del Rey is back. The singer has shared “Henry, Come On,” her first bit of new music since last July, and first solo release in two years. The sad, cowgirl ballad “Henry, Come On” also marks the first single from Del Rey’s upcoming album The Right Person Will Stay, out May 21.

“It’s not because of you that I turned out so dangerous/Yesterday, I heard God say, ‘It’s in your blood,’” sings Del Rey on the dreamy chorus. “Yesterday, I heard God say, ‘You were born to be the one to hold thе hand of the man who flies too close to thе sun.’”

The song arrived right on schedule. In November, when Del Rey officially set a date for her much anticipated 10th studio album, the singer wrote in an Instagram post, “Happy for you to hear a few songs coming up before Stagecoach.” At the time, the singer only referred to the song as “Henry” rather than its official title “Henry, Come On.” In two weeks, Del Rey will headline the first night of Stagecoach with a “very special country set,” which will include “new songs,” as she detailed in another update.

The singer has been teasing “Henry, Come On” for over a year. At the beginning of last year, Del Rey shared a snippet of the ballad without any context. Just a couple of weeks ago, she posted the single cover art for “Henry, Come On,” which features the singer wearing a white lace dress and classic red lip.
