Lana Del Rey uploads cover of "On Eagle's Wings" hymn to celebrate Joe Biden's election win
Lana Del Rey has uploaded a video of her covering the "On Eagle's Wings" hymn as a tribute to Joe Biden winning the 2020 US election.
Biden referenced the "On Eagle's Wings" hymn during his first speech as President-elect last week, saying, "It captures the faith that sustains me and which I believe sustains America."
Over the weekend Lana Del Rey shared a cover of "On Eagle's Wings" via her Instagram, alongside providing an update on her album of "American Standards and classics" that's due to land before Christmas.
Del Rey wrote, "Hey guys well as promised we are getting a Headstart on that album of standard folk songs and all things americana, but we took a break to watch the Biden speech and he mentioned at the end of it to hymn that he hoped gave Americans hope so I thought I would just give a little version of that as we took a break in the studio."

The singer/songwriter announced her "American Standards and classics" album earlier this month while providing an update on Chemtrails Over The Country Club. She told her fans in a video, "Chemtrails Over The Country Club, right, 16-week delay on the vinyl process, so in the meantime, I am going to give you a digital record of American Standards and classics for Christmas because I can't get the record plants to open until March 5th."
She also confirmed that her Chemtrails album is finished, and said it's "folky it's beautiful, it's super different from Norman [Fucking Rockwell]."
