The very first listen to the complete studio recording of indie pop vocalist Lana Del Rey's new take on the iconic Walt Disney movie musical anthem "Once Upon A Dream", originally utilized in SLEEPING BEAUTY and now in the forthcoming MALEFICENT, is now available to hear in full.

"I know you / I walked with you once upon a dream," Del Rey sonorously sings in the languid and dreamy new track, punctuated by an orchestra along with Del Rey's signature solo croon.

"But if I know you / I know what you'll do / You'll love me at once / The way you did once / Upon a dream," Del Rey sings in the Tchaikovsky-based melody, originally presented in the master composer's ballet SLEEPING BEAUTY and later in the classic 1959 Walt Disney film.

Of note, Del Rey also memorably contributed to the soundtrack of Baz Luhrmann's recent feature film adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald's THE GREAT GATSBY, as well, with "Young And Beautiful".

MALEFICENT is set to be released on May 30.
