You will be happy to listen to honeymoon next because it is so much more airy and not dark like ultraviolence. It's very much like an old movie with the violins and it's quite different from the other two albums. Will be a good album to listen to after so many dark albums. Then you get lust for Life which is one of her more pop albums but it is not considered her best work oddly while it's actually really good. I think you'll like it and then you will eventually hit Norman Rockwell the best album of all artists of all time so buckle up Oh and after you get chemtrails in blue banisters. I'm not the biggest fan of those two and they're a bit disorganized and don't really have a cohesiveness like every other album but I do recommend listening to them they have good songs but the entire body of work is not very cohesive in my opinion. But the newest album that just came out is absolutely amazing. But without listening to lanas other music and knowing context the album is really not a great thing to listen to right away. I would never recommend that album for someone who's never heard Lana before because it is so dependent on knowing her past work. She also talks about a lot of music that only mega fans would know about tiny little things and the people she knows close to her in real life and all these little tiny things. But you'll love that album and I'm excited for Norman Rockwell

Oh by the way, money power Glory is a criticism of the media who has been criticizing her. She was saying that the media wouldn't stop saying she's only about money and power. So she said you know what I'm going to write a song and give them what they want and she decided to use that as the title. But she's not actually wanting money power Glory. Sad girl apparently is also feeding into the stereotype or what media refers to her as so she decided to say you know what I am a sad girl I'm going to give them what they want as well. And mistress just means side hoe, unpaid. Often times in a cheating context. She's basically saying that she's miserable because she's just a mistress and it makes her sad but can't leave him because she loves him too much so she just suffers alone Sad girl is my fav on the album And the fast spot you are looking for is the song Florida kilos from the bonus tracks. Fucked my way up to the top is a diss track against the Lorde.

Wait where’s Florida Kilos? That’s the best song!!

when you listen to ultraviolence for the first time and understand it’s about gaslighted pov instead of romanticizing abuse it’s when you know you’re gonna be a lana fan

after born to die the media really was like "what is she going to do now?" and then she just did this like, so bold and unexpected, ignored all the bullshit said about her and really pushed the aesthetic further like omg.. its amazing and i whished we had more of this dark rock and electric guitars vibes from her.

I would say that lana is always one step ahead of the culture. Her rise was coincidentally around the same time as tumblr, and her music definitely propelled the “aesthetic” vibes that people started going for! And she was having so much fun with the critics at the time, making songs like sad girl, fmwuttt, and pwuc, and singing them with a straight face 😂

It’s called “Pretty When You Cry” because that’s what one of Lana’s boyfriends said to her instead of comforting her. She’s waiting on him to come through and change and comfort her for once, but he never does

So excited for the Honeymoon reaction! One of her most underrated albums.

i think you will love honeymoon it’s a totally different vibe! very cinematic and slower. it’s that album that you don’t always understand on first listen, but then it starts to grow on you! at first i wasn’t really feeling it but now it’s my fav album of all time.

When I saw her live she opened with cruel world. That opening guitar tune and those opening lyrics!! It was iconic. I absolutely lost my mind.

This album is one of the best of the century. I really hope that Lana releases again a rock influenced album

literally can't wait for honeymoon. lemme be honest: people say "oh you're not ready for ultraviolence" but it's because ultraviolence is brutal. the reality is that honeymoon is WAY more sadder, just less brutal and in between the lines 😍😍😭😍😭😍

@sparkleclover

BTD is having fun with your married sugar daddy but secretly starting to feel sad about it. UV is when the relationship turns abusive and you start making excuses and stay anyways bc you're stubbornly "in love", and honeymoon is when the relationship is over and maybe you're with a new guy and you should be happy but instead you're actually more deeply depressed than ever and missing your abuser and romanticizing the past and the "honeymoon period" of the relationship. just my interpretation.

ultraviolence is simply a really courageous, brave 2nd album for a singer lol i mean she had the BALLS to do it. simply for that, it's iconic. i'm sorry but it just is. love it.

“He hit me and it felt like a kiss” is such a powerful line. It’s actually the title of a song by The Crystals from the 60s. Lana’s vocal delivery in Ultraviolence is pure perfection and it tugs at my heartstrings every time. 😢

"We're annoying about how much we love that album" literally me about every Lana album progressively more.

Omg while there aren’t that many comments here I have to say something First of all, I appreciate you listening to us so much. Your attention to making sure you cover bonus songs and music videos that we suggest is so special! I’ve been listening to Lana since I was in 8th/9th grade in 2012. It’s been such an amazing journey and she’s everything to me. My favorite songs of all time ever are Cruel World & Is This Happiness which I feel like says so much about who I am. I think for us super fans, Lana provided us with an outlet to see an aesthetic and art we all already had inside of us, but she is creative and talented enough to bring it to life lol. I’ve never connected with anything more.

I highly recommend listening to her song "Once Upon a Dream" from the Maleficent soundtrack. A great cover!

west coast is one of lana’s known songs but it’s probably one of her best

Girl, don’t let others rush you, enjoy every album and every moment. Lana albums have to be digested slowly. You’re amazing and thank you, only reason why I don’t delete this app ❤

To me, in Old Money, it's about her leaving New York and moving on and trying her life on the west Coast. Saying "I will never forget these memories I have of being there, and will be there if you ever need me, but i need to move on and grow, and try something else."

Honestly, I think Old Money is more of one of those songs you "feel" rather than "get". You seemed too preoccupied trying to "get" it, but hopefully it'll grow on you, it's so freaking beautiful. Loved the video, though! Can't wait for Norman F* Rockwell, it's the next Lana album that's REALLY great. The ones in between are rather divisive but NFR is like... surely in every Lana's fan top 3 list.

Well, in my case, I loved it for a few months and I still love a few songs (The Blackest Day and Art Deco are some of my favorites from her discography), but the album wears off. It's just not a good time once you've listened to it a lot, imo. It isn't a grower, it's an "ok, some songs are nice" album and then instead of becoming better and better it just gets boring. It's also very dated (Lust for Life is even worse in this regard). Those albums don't engage me when even Blue Banisters and Chemtrails do, it's as simple as that.

Love your reactions so much! You're totally right about Fucked my way up to the Top - it's satirical, about how she was perceived. She wasn't taken seriously as an artist and a lot of people assumed she only got where she was by sleeping her way up to the top, which isn't true because she literally worked her ass off for like 8 years singing in New York clubs before she got signed. There's a pretty infamous quote from her saying "I've slept with a lot of guys in the industry, but none of them helped me get my career. Which is annoying." Which is a typical Lana quote lol - she can be very wry and funny sometimes. She's been chronically misunderstood and unfairly labelled by critics throughout her whole career and is only now starting to get the true critical recognition and appreciation she's deserved from the start. And no, she's never won a Grammy (travesty!) but has been nominated and robbed of Album of the Year several times! It's looking like she may finally get AOTY for her latest record (and absolutely should), but she's deserved it so many times.

51:50 your reaction to west coast is representing all of us in the first listen lol

Honeymoon is very airy with lots of strings and vocal layers, interesting bridges. It's so underrated

For the song Ultraviolence: from comments made by Lana, it seems like the song is about three different [and mostly-unrelated] things. 1. The song uses an abusive relationship as a metaphor for her relationship with alcohol, 2. An actual cult (or cultish group) she was once a part of, and 3. her appreciation for BDSM-type relationships.

honeymoon is my favourite album! it’s really sophisticated in an italy, 60s, ice cream, swans, violins, and art way, but not a lot of people like it because the songs are built up a little bit differently from what a nowadays listener is used to. honeymoon is, in my opinion, REALLY deep and poetic. nearly every song has a deeper meaning and is supposed to be heard, not just listened to. i would like to beg you to find the demo of ‚the blackest day‘ on youtube and listen to it as well, cause it’s my favourite song ever! ❤️‍🩹

She was actually talking about Lorde in Fcked My Way Up To The Top! I love yours reactions to Lana albums!!!

I love Pretty When You Cry personally it’s one of my top 3 from this album. I think it’s because she doesn’t sing super high in most of her music so I like that it’s unique in that way and nice to hear her play with her voice. Great video!

yessss we’ve been anticipating ETA it’s worth keeping in mind the context in which this album was released. BTD and lana were heavily trashed by critics at the time of her debut, and her response was to double down on a lot of the things she was criticized for. she was criticized for romanticizing toxic relationships - makes ultraviolence. was criticized for being shallow and chasing fads - makes brooklyn baby. was criticized for the sadness and melodrama in her music - makes sad girl and pretty when you cry. i’ll always respect that lana stuck to her guns and made a record that was so sonically captivating the critics had no choice but to re-evaluate her merits as a musical artist. it’s really only in the past few years that she’s begun to be taken seriously on the level she deserves, in my opinion. also hotel california is one of her fave songs, i’m sure she’d be delighted that you mentioned it here lol

it's finally hereeeeeeeee!!! Just to say thanks to cass and how much effort goes into these reaction videos. It's always great seeing people react to Lana's music, ty cass

Pretty when you cry was freestyled

I hope you also do honeymoon which is my personal favorite album from Lana, I really enjoy your analysis on the stories of the songs.

Just wait till you get to experience Norman Fucking Rockwell for the first time.

Actually, ''The Other Woman'' is a cover of a Nina Simone song from the 60s (Honeymoon also ends with a cover of Nina Simone). And yes, there are a lot of songs sadder than Ultraviolence on her discography hahaha

Fun fact the original song was by Nina Simone in the 50s!!

In one of the earliest interviews in her career, Lana made it clear that she wasn’t interested in making music that was “just pop.” All these years later, as she’s now the industry’s most intriguing poet, Lana Del Rey creates genre-defying songs that can teach all of us something about vulnerability, human nature and society at-large.

Pretty when you cry was freestyled btw it’s incredibly raw the fandom loves it

I love how much time you take to absorb the songs and pay attention to them and to articulate your thoughts! A lot of the ones you didn’t like as much are big favourites of mine. I’m eager to see how the album grows on you as I do think it could be harder to adjust to some of it especially after coming from Born to Die - I think this project really showed her seriousness as a musician and album artist, deviating away from what may have been expected or pressured to do after the Summertime Sadness success and leaning even more into an alternative image/sound. For me, Old Money is my favourite, particularly because of relating to it in my own way. The album came out at a hard time and I too was posing the questions to myself of “where did I go wrong” and “how did things take such a turn?” and the lines about her feeling alone, not understanding why and contemplating about lost youth really resonated. I also feel like so much meaning in that song is felt in its sonic qualities and emotions conveyed. Honeymoon is my favourite album as it has a sonic world that is very well thought-out and cohesive while also having differing songs and moments. Im looking forward to seeing how you react to it! ❤️

I'm not sure if anyone said this but in the title track she says "I can hear violins, violins" this also could be depicted "i can hear violence, violence" she does this in lust for life in the song white Mustang with another word(s) but it's really cool but I'll let u figure that one by yourself haha x

I'm a new fan to Lana as well, and I'm loving watching your reactions to her albums. You're much more articulate and astute than a lot of other people I've seen in the reaction space on KZread. Keep up the awesome job.

You are my favorite reaction channel 🥰

This was the most fun to watch and relive some of my favourite songs again! I feel like we're friends already

Great reaction as always, I haven't finished yet but your comment about wanting a upbeat song caught my attention. Lana has a few songs like that, but they're very different from others singer's. She's usually on the slower side and when she's not, she's gonna play a little more with the instrumentals and production. I personally would recommend not expect "upbeat" on every album, but enjoy the ride and if it happens, it happens. Her earlier albums have a heavier sound and production, so if you like that sound you'll probably enjoy them more than her recent works, which also have an amazing production, but I think it's worth listening to everything, especially because she's an excellent songwriter and she gets better at every release!

It's strange, I remember Ultraviolence (the titular track especially) was initially criticised for "romanticising domestic violence". Personally, I never felt that. Having lived with DV, I always thought it was a pretty profound song that captured the essence of being in love with someone who's mistreating you. Anyway, that's my oversharing on the Internet done for today. Thanks for the great vid Cass. I've never watched an album react before, but this was top shelf stuff. Stay brilliant ❤

ilyyy see you reacting this albumm, is my fav one 🥳

btw, the other woman is a cover!

I've been loving Lana for a long time and watching your reactions makes me look at her songs in a new light and I love it. I love how you analyze the song and what I thought was interesting about your reaction to the guitar part on Shades of Cool is now I interpret that guitar being the man tuning her out how you can barely hear her voice and she talks about a neglectful lover? Maybe I'm just overthinking this but I just thought it was fun to think about. I can't wait for you to react to Honeymoon you have to listen to the fun little transition Lana does from the ending of track 6 into track 7!

I love the journey you are doing through Lana del Rey discography...keep it going ❤

I just love this album. It ages like wine, and the more you listen, the more it grows in you. So vulnerable, truthful and empty at the same time.

Really enjoying seeing your Lana journey so far. I'm looking forward to your reaction to Lust For Life. It has a bit of a different feel to earlier albums, but I love it.
