She went back to Rick Nowels' place the following day where she reworked on the track addressing what Martin had suggested, she turned the verse into the chorus and for her, it sounded "perfect". He thought the first verse was the strongest part of what she had done, encouraging her to turn this verse into the song's chorus.
She then flew to Martin's compound located in Sweden. Watching Del Rey's indignation, Interscope's record executive John Janick suggested that she should consult producer Max Martin to see what could think of the record. "Lust for Life" was the first song Lana Del Rey wrote for the album, during the writing process she felt it as a good record, however, she wasn't really satisfied with the initial version of the track, re-editing and rewriting the lyrics several times. The song was also included as the tenth track in the setlist of her fourth headlining concert tour called " LA to the Moon Tour" (2018). To promote "Lust for Life", the singer performed it for the first time at the 2017 KROQ Weenie Roast y Fiesta concert and later appeared at the 2017 BBC Radio 1's Big Weekend on May 27, 2017. Some critics pointed out a parallel between some of the lyrics and imagery accompanying the song and the 1932 suicide of actress Peg Entwistle who killed herself by jumping off the "H" of the sign. Its accompanying music video directed by Clark Jackson features Del Rey and the Weeknd singing on the top of the Hollywood Sign as referenced in the lyrics.
"Lust for Life" debuted in the top 100 of several countries, including the United States – where it peaked at 64 being the third collaboration between Del Rey and the Weeknd to enter the chart– the United Kingdom, Canada, Scotland, Portugal, Spain, Belgium and Ireland. "Lust for Life" received mixed reviews from music critics: some acclaimed its sultry production that departs from the melancholic, sad themes present in Del Rey's previous works, while others criticized its lyrics as banal and the Weeknd's vocals as whiny. It also quotes the poem " Invictus" by the English poet William Ernest Henley (1849–1903). A dream pop and bubblegum pop song, "Lust for Life" is reminiscent of 1960s music, especially from girl groups like the Shangri-Las and the Angels the latter's 1963 song " My Boyfriend's Back" is referenced in the lyrics. It was released on April 19, 2017, through Polydor Records and Interscope Records, as the second single from her fifth studio album of the same name (2017). Martin handled the additional production. The song was written by the artists, Rick Nowels, and Max Martin and produced by Del Rey, Nowels, Dean Reid and Kieron Menzies.
