Tropico was filmed in late June 2013; it was directed by Anthony Mandler, [39] who also directed Del Rey's earlier music videos for " National Anthem" and "Ride". Burning Desire", the album's second promotional single, was used to promote the Jaguar F-Type model; at a promotional concert, Del Rey sang the song, wearing red lipstick, because the model features a built-in lipstick holder. com noticed that the track adhered to Del Rey's trademark sound, stating that the notion of her even having a trademark after one commercially successful album indicates that "we haven't seen the last of her just yet". All of this is probably a metaphor for something, but honestly, we’re still trying to figure out what those 'Born To Die' tigers mean.Sometimes though every now and then whilst I'm listen to this track I feel like i am intruding but that might be because it's so very personal. Pointing to "Blue Velvet" and "Yayo" as the weaker songs, LGBT lifestyle magazine So So Gay analyzed Paradise as a whole: "The existing themes, stunning musicality, and lyrical strength of the original are complimented [ sic] by a series of new tracks that give the listener 'more of the same'. Yayo' is Lana at some of her absolute jazzy best, 'Blue Velvet' is one very sweet cover indeed and the grandness and scope of tacks like 'Ride', 'American' and 'Bel Air' make this a really beautiful record in my book. Charting across Europe, the EP became a top 10 hit in Flanders and Poland, charting within the top 20 in Wallonia and the Netherlands. Disagreeing with this position, Carl Williot of Idolator said that "Yayo" should have been a single.

After numerous projects, including her self-titled debut studio album, Del Rey's breakthrough came in 2011 with the viral success of her single "Video Games"; she subsequently signed a recording contract with Polydor and Interscope. When asked about the origin of the lyrics to "Cola", Del Rey said: "I have a Scottish boyfriend, and that's just what he says! Whereas Born to Die was self-conscious and chart hungry, Paradise allows Lana the freedom to get a little more daring and fully indulge in her love of David Lynch. The song was made available for purchase via digital download on March 19, 2013 as the EP's second and final promo single. Depending on where you live, the time it may take for your exchanged product to reach you, may vary.In 2014, she recorded "Once Upon a Dream" for the dark fantasy adventure film Maleficent and the self-titled theme song for the biopic Big Eyes.

At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the EP has received an average score of 64, based on 9 reviews indicating "generally favorable reviews". Elsewhere, there's more talk of bad boys, cherry pie and other old fashioned glamourisms much like its parent album, but there's still progression to be found. Her ninth studio album, “Did you know that there's a tunnel under Ocean Blvd” was released on all platforms March 24th 2023.The song's chorus of "I sing the body electric" is a direct reference to his poem " I Sing the Body Electric".
