    I love Honeymoon but if she went any slower she may as well just release a sounds of the rainforest album that people can sleep to.

    I was listening again to all the BBC lounge versions of the Honeymoon album
     
    I love that all of them are done even slower and the arrangements they use for that
     
    If the next album were all like that (even slower) it would be great
     
    The version of Honeymoon, to me, sounds like Led Zeppelin in the slow build a classic rock song like Stairway to heaven has
    (it don't need to be fast to achieve it)
     
    It is amazing and no one else has ever done this before Lana
     
    to those that don't say anything nice about Honeymoon the album, it is a deep infectious slow groove opera
    and her voice in the lounge is well, simply amazing. Words can't describe it.
     
    Same with her version a few years ago of the Kasabian song, Goodbye Kiss, which I think any hater of Lana should be required to listen to 100 times in a row.
    And then say something negative.
    Would love her to record that song, it is 100% unknown in America. (For those who haven't heard it, go to youtube and listen).
     
    it all goes back to what she sang and lectured people in "Americans"
    "Everyone wants to go fast but they can't compare
    I don't eally want the rest, only you can take me there
    I don't even know what I'm saying..."
     
    which later on, Leonard Cohen in a recent album had a song called "Slow"
    "I'm slowing down the tune
    I never liked it fast
    You want to get there soon
    I want to get there last"

  15. knoxavel liked a post in a topic by slang in Lana’s Best Album / Your Favourite   
    Best depends on what dimension of her work you happen to value the most (at the current moment?), so I don't see best and favorite as all that distinct. Also, it's hard to think about a single best, if what you pay attention to is the artist's range over albums.   However, I voted for HM just on the basis of listening to it as much as the others...and having a similar positive reaction to it. The singing and production slays me through most of the tracks. It's her best *focussed* retro album,  if you happen to value the retro dimension of her work the most (e.g., old-school type singing). It's sort of like Amy's Back to Black but with a different retro target, though it is not as anal with respect to perfectly reproducing *new* classics from an older era. Instead HM has rougher personal statements that are pretty enigmatic too, imo. It goes deeper and deeper, harder and harder, darker and darker, and looks for pop in all the wrong places (omg).

    you are not - she could have at least performed MTWBT. I'm a little upset that she didn't perform at at the OHANA FESTIVAL. Would have slayed everyone on that beach from all the contact high that night.

    JAMES is a bit of a troll though - he'd probably throw in GO GO DANCER and be like 'LANA - EXPLAIN YOURSELF!"

    Metacritic does not review albums, it compiles other album review scores and averages them out. So this comment is kind of redundant lol
     
    no offense

    While I agree with some of the points you made, I'd like to point out that she has sang Young and Beautiful live, a song which features a whole orchestra of instruments, with that small band. So she is able to perform songs that contain instruments which aren't not be available during the performance. A bunch of her songs sound different live than in studio.
