What is Lana Del Rey's most recent album 'Did You Know That There’s a Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd' about?Del Rey's most recent album, "Did You Know That There's a Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd" debuted on March 24, 2023.
In a conversation with fellow musician Billie Eilish for Interview Magazine, Del Rey said she wrote the album with many of her friends and it's just "straight vibing."
"...With this album, the majority of it is my innermost thoughts," she said, adding that some of the songs are "super long and wordy."
"I’d go on a 7-minute rant with a repetitive melody," she said. "It would be exactly what I was thinking about, mostly family and whether everything was going to pan out alright in the end."
She later added that much of the album "is based on the concerns or hopes in my mind."
Is there an actual tunnel under Ocean Boulevard?Del Ray is known for her connection to the Los Angeles area with her songs often referring to locations in the area.
In the album's titular song, Del Rey gives us some clues about which tunnel she is referring to:
Did you know that there’s a tunnel under Ocean Boulevard? / Mosaic ceilings, painted tiles on the wall
I can’t help but feel somewhat like my body marred my soul / Handmade beauty sealed up by two man-made walls
It sounds like she is talking about the Jergins Tunnel, located in Long Beach, California.
The Long Beach Public Library posted on X, formerly known as Twitter, confirming the tunnel's existence and attached photos that seemingly match the song's lyrical description.
"Did you know that there’s a tunnel under Ocean Blvd? Yup! It’s called the Jergins Tunnel and it opened in 1928 and closed to the public in 1967," Long Beach Public Library posted on Dec. 7, 2022. "The tunnel ran under Ocean Blvd. and provided access to the Pike and beach, via the Jergins Trust building at 100 E. Ocean Boulevard."
