Here’s your deep dive into the way Emily in Paris connects with some of Lana Del Rey‘s best and most thought-provoking song lyrics.

Emily: Take Me to Paris.

Emily’s love for Paris made her want to abandon her life in Chicago and relocate to Paris on a permanent basis.

In Lana’s unreleased track, she sings, “Take me to Paris. Let’s go there and never look back. Paris oh, we can be crazy like that.”

This song was damn near written for Emily!

Gabriel: Lucky Ones.

Gabriel’s feelings for Emily have been in full swing since Season One, even though their love story has been complicated with other people like Camille and Alfie in the mix.

Lana sings, “Every now and then, the stars align. Boy and girl meet by the great design. Could it be that you and me are the lucky ones? Everybody told me love was blind. Then I saw your face and you blew my mind. Finally, you and me are the lucky ones this time.”

Despite constant conflicts impeding their relationship, Gabriel and Emily seem destined to end up together like the lucky boy and girl Lana sings about.

Camille: Jealous Girl.

Camille has no reason to be jealous of Emily, yet she constantly comes across like she’s struggling with deep-seeded envy.

Lana sings, “I’m a jealous, jealous, jealous girl. If I can’t have you baby, no one else in this world can.”

Camille’s confusing feelings for Gabriel and frenemy-style connection with Emily is perfectly suited for this song.

Alfie: Dark Paradise.

Emily broke Alfie’s heart, big time. When he thought they might reconcile, she hurt him all over again. it was tragic.

Lana sings, “And there’s no remedy for memory, your face is like a melody, it won’t leave my head. Every time I close my eyes, it’s like a dark paradise.”

Alfie outright complained about not being able to get Emily out of his head, which is why this song is perfect for him.

Mindy: Radio.

Mindy’s arc on Emily in Paris heavily focuses on her music career and the path toward success she’s presently on.

Lana sings, “Now my life is sweet like cinnamon. Like an F-ing dream I’m living in. Baby, love me ’cause I’m playing on the radio.”

Mindy’s life has been improving and becoming sweet like cinnamon, slowly but surely, as her music career progresses.

Sylvie: Tough.

Having a boss like Sylvie wouldn’t be a walk in the park for anyone. She’s short-tempered, impatient, and brutally honest.

Lana sings, “Tough like the scuff on a pair of old leather boots. Like the blue-collar, red-dirt attitude. Like a .38 made out of brass. Tough like the stuff in your grandpa’s glass. Life’s gonna do what it does. Sure as the good Lord’s up above. I’m cut like a diamond shinin’ in the rough. Tough.”

This song flawlessly describes Sylvie and her approach to business.

Julien: Music to Watch Boys To.

Julien is one of Emily’s sweet, funny, and gossipy co-workers at the office. He’s also proudly gay.

Lana sings, “I see you’re going. So I play my music, watch you leave. Putting on my music while I’m watching the boys.”

Julien is the type to turn on a pleasant playlist and admire gorgeous men whenever given the chance.

Luc: Lust For Life.

Luc is another co-worker Emily works with who seems to always see the bright side of things. His optimism and happy attitude are unmatched.

Lana sings, “A lust for life keeps us alive.”

Whether Luc is interacting with a love interest, his co-workers, or his friends, his energy is always vibrant and upbeat to match the sentiment in Lana’s lyrics.
