Ahead of the release of Cheryl Cole's third album 'A Million Lights' on Monday, (18 June, 2012) tracks from the record have begun to appear online - including 'Ghetto Baby', written by Lana Del Rey.

A classy slice of moody, downbeat electronic pop, 'Ghetto Baby' bears all the hallmarks of Lana's work such as the glamour/despair of the lyrics, the laid back vocal delivery and the spoken word sections. The only thing different are the vocals.

Cheryl had spoken previously of the track, saying in an interview with Capital FM: "I noticed Lana about a year ago. I was hearing these songs that were really fresh to my ear and amazing and I asked the guy who she was and he said, 'Watch out for her, it's a girl called Lana Del Rey'."

Adding: "It all happened really organically just like that. And then 'Video Games' came out and I fell in love with her as an artist as well, so yeah, she's super talented."
