Old Money收录于美国独立女歌手Lana Del Rey在2014年发行的第三张录音室专辑《Ultraviolence》中的第十支曲目。此曲采样了60年代英国电影《罗密欧与朱丽叶》主题曲《What Is A Youth》,像是Video Games、Bel Air和Ride的合体。在早期清唱小样Methaphetamines中,Lana则在自拍录影带中致敬了猫王。
这首小情歌存在意义很明确,就是在你情绪低落的时候,可以翻出来听听,而且朗朗上口,一下子就能跟着音乐哼起来。最后那首爵士调调The Other Women是翻唱自Nina Simone,Lana有个纹身就是Nina,Lana还把这首歌列入她自己最爱播放表之中,现在拿出来翻唱,既是致敬,又展示了自己的品味。
