If it retains its position throughout the week, it will be Lana's first solo Top 10 hit since Born To Die in 2012 (as a collaborator, she hit Number 4 last year on Taylor Swift's Snow on the Beach). And the wise decision from Lana and her team is already paying off Say Yes To Heaven, bolstered by its streaming numbers, is heading for a Top 10 debut on the Official Singles Chart. MORE: Lana Del Rey's Official Top 40 biggest songs in the UKīut Say Yes To Heaven - despite missing out on tracklisting placements on the aforementioned Ultraviolence, as well as follow-up records Honeymoon and Lust For Life - was released from the vault, thanks in large part to a leaked demo going viral on social media, especially TikTok. Originally written and recorded for inclusion on Lana's 2014 magnum opus Ultraviolence, the aching and acoustic-laden Say Yes To Heaven fits in very will Lana's early career oeuvre it's a maudlin, slightly orchestral lament for the man in her life, with lyrical references to Lana putting her trusty old little red dress on, and a heavy smattering of religious iconography (in this case, Lana and her love being compared to the ultimate paradise). But this could all be about to change, thanks to the near unparalleled success Say Yes To Heaven is currently having on the Official Singles Chart. For too many years, this has been a curio of Lana's discography if you want to get to the really good stuff, you have to go digging.
