Dreams come true

She wrote down her performance in music history by perfectly singing with her music idols like Chris Isaak with Wicked Game, and she also performed a cover of Leonard Cohen’s Chelsea Hotel No. 2 with his son Adam Cohen.

Sean Ono Lennon took part in her not only one single performance, but a few concerts with their song “Tomorrow never came” from her Lust for Life album. We have to mention appearing of famous special guests like Jesse Rutherford of The Neighbourhood with Daddy Issues song, Joan Baez with Bob Dylan’s “Diamonds and Rust” (surprise duet with Lana). Besides, Lana performed “Hope Is a Dangerous Thing for a Woman Like Me To Have - But I Have It” for the first time accompanied by Jack Antonoff.

Also, Lana recorded the back vocal for Cat Power’s song “Women” from her new Wanderer album in 2018. No need to say Cat Power is Lana’s idol too.
