“1949” is an unreleased “Lolita” inspired song by Lana Del Rey, in the Lizzy Grant era. It is speculated to have been recorded in 2008. The song leaked on July 1, 2012, and is partly a demo for “Every Man Gets His Wish”. A studio version was leaked on May 11, 2016. This version abruptly cuts off at the end of the track and while it may be an extended snippet, it is also possible that the recording was never finished.

In Lolita, 1949 is the year when Humbert and Lolita travel across the United States of America for the second time.

Lana loves Lolita, referencing the 1955 Nabokov novel in her 2012 song, “Lolita”.
