Evita, based on the life of Argentinian leader Eva Perón, first emerged on London's West End in the 1970s. A movie version, starring Madonna in the lead role, followed in 1996.

Unmasked is being released to coincide with musical impresario Andrew Lloyd Webber's 70th birthday and includes his greatest musical hits alongside newly released tracks.

In a statement to press, Lana Del Rey said: "Andrew Lloyd Webber has been one of my primary inspirations in music, so to do a cover of one of his songs is a dream. I especially love this particular song, "You Must Love Me," because of how unique the melody is. I’ve been incredibly inspired by all of Andrew’s work from Phantom of the Opera to Evita.”

Earlier this year Lana Del Rey was the subject of a kidnapping plot. One man was arrested in close proximity to one of her concerts.
