You know when you're watching a 70-minute Apple ad and you're like, I really wish I could burst into tears right now? Lana Del Rey made dreams come true on Tuesday.
The singer closed out Apple's special event in Brooklyn, performing two songs from her upcoming album Norman Fucking Rockwell.Unfortunately, she could not identify her album nor her second song, "Venice Bitch," because Apple told her not to swear. Them's the breaks, Lana. Maybe you should have done "Brooklyn Baby" instead.

On Twitter, the consensus was that Lana's performance was pretty stunning, especially in the beautiful opera house where the event was held. It was also a huge change from these events' typical "rah rah, wow, so cool" enthusiasm, creating a moment that was genuinely moving and also ... pretty weird?

The performance also featured the most wholesome thing I've ever seen at an Apple event. As Lana exited the stage, she told Tim Cook she was nervous. Cook replied, "No, you were great! I'm the one that's nervous." Soak up the pathos while it lasts -- it won't!
It's like we've always said: Nothing says "new MacBook Air" like a good, long sob.
