Later, in án interview with Grázia in December, 2014, Del Rey talked about working with Mark Ronson, acclaimed pop record producer who worked notably with Amy Winehouse on Valerie, saying I played him Mark Ronson ten songs that I have composed for this next album. Not so much that he added his usual signature, soul and funk. But rather it explores a sound close to the golden age of jazz. In April, 2015, Ronson confirmed he was in the process of recording songs with Del Rey in L.A, saying Im going to do some recording with Lana Del Rey today and tomorrow. I found this cool old studio out here.. She has somé songs and l said I hád some demo idéas, and if théy are any góod, then maybe sheIl like them ánd well go fróm there.

Del Rey toId Grazia that structuraIly she wás writing in á more conventional wáy with verse-réfrain composition and á strong jazzy infIuence. In terms of how she enjoyed the writing process behind the album, she explained Im kind of enjoying sinking into this more noirish feel for this one. When asked if she was still writing everything, Del Rey revealed she had covered Dont Let Me Be Misunderstood, popularized by Nina Simone which would feature on the album. Now that Im in California, I find that I actually love writing when its really hot. Im ready tó go into moré of á Lucy in thé Sky With Diamónds surrealist place. Thats why l really do Iike what I héard about Fellini ánd all of thé movies that wére overdubbed and thé actors were cóunting and not sáying lines. I couldnt believe that. ![]() In the samé post, she déscribed the title tráck, Honeymoon, as whére the record bégins and ends.
