Indie-pop singer, Lana Del Rey, scored her best Billboard debut with “Summer Sadness” this week, entering the all-genre chart at #72 and #36 on the pop charts.
“Summer Sadness” is the second single off of her first (major label) album Born to Die, and although it was released internationally about this time last year, it is just now starting to catch on in the United States.
According to the Examiner, this momentum can be attributed to French DJ Cedric Gervais and his house-remix of the single. “Summer Sadness” should be giving Del Rey plenty of reason to be happy as it is currently her best-selling track on iTunes.
Her second single has even out-performed her track off of The Great Gatsby soundtrack, which debuted at #86 and rose to #22 last month; making it (at the time) her most successful hit so far.
