Track Description
Available in:
"Doin' Time" is a song by the American band Sublime, released in 1997. It is a loose cover of "Summertime" by George Gershwin, composed for the opera Porgy and Bess.
On May 7, 2019, American singer Lana Del Rey teased a cover of the song and said it was "coming soon". Del Rey's cover was officially released on May 17, 2019, coinciding with the premiere of a documentary about Sublime at the Tribeca Film Festival. It was released as the fourth single from Del Rey's sixth studio album Norman Fucking Rockwell. On August 29, 2019, she released a music video for the cover, directed by Rich Lee, shot by Christopher Probst, ASC and edited by Logan Hefflefinger.
"Look up! It’s the Queen of Monsters. Lana Del Rey plays a vengeful giantess in this woozy romp by Rich Lee. In an allusion to the ’50s B Movie Attack of the 50 Foot Woman, Del Rey wanders peacefully through downtown Los Angeles towards Venice Beach. Suddenly, the video changes gear. It’s revealed that this entire setup was just a sequence from a pulpy drive-in movie. A different Lana watches, replete in a blonde Shake-N-Go wig, and wonders where her no-good date has gone. Then, in a sublime fantasia, the giantess Lana dances on Venice Beach, before emerging from the screen in a blast of sand to wreak havoc in the real world. ... Who knew that after all this time and speculation about her perceived authenticity, the enigmatic singer was actually guarding a wicked sense of humour. For an artist who has built an entire mythology out of restraint and careful repetition, this is an unusual deviation - a rare foray into kitsch comedy. But in a way, nothing could be more Lana Del Rey than a 50ft Lana Del Rey reclining in the LA basin on a hot afternoon. The risk paid off; this ranks amongst the her most iconic videos."
