tbh im kinda sure the EP is coming now, itll be so cruel if she teased RBFY agai when theres nothing behind it

we need lust for life: b-sides and demos 

I would love to a hear a version of Change with church bells at the end and a more ethereal production paired with those angelic vocals

OMG WHAT IF SHE PERFORMS IT LIVE AS TEASING AND PROMO FOR THE RUMOURED EP THAT SHE COULD THEN RELEASE AT THE END OF THE TOUR

Excuse me but we are talking about Lana Del Rey in 2017 with full time organization that is conflictive with leaks such as the live video and one of her singles BAR.

Saving old videos and posting almost a year later , I smell organization and a release plan.

“Listening listening”

THERE IS A STUDIO VERSION I'M CRYING SHE IS GONA RELEASE ROSES BLOOM FOR YOU AND BEST AMERICAN RECORD AND YOSEMITE SHE REALLY IS ISN'T SHE

I feel like Honeymoon was the record that really allowed Lana to be herself and was a platform through which she could communicate her internal struggle of the whole persona of Lana Del Rey versus Elizabeth Woolridge Grant. The lyrical parallels in some songs (HBTB and PMIAM from AKA) and themes from songs like GKIT and Swan Song really show this struggle I feel. 
 
The whole record deals with themes of escapism and voyeurism, feeling like you're being watched, and living out fantasies of your own downtime and freedom. The visuals for this era also convey this, what with the whole Starline tours bus - showing Lana, a star herself, literally surrounded in a world of stars, but the obvious factor is that these kinds of Hollywood tours are for the average person, which I think subtly but brilliantly shows the way in which Lana both objectively and personally views herself. 
 
I think out of all her discography, Honeymoon is THE record that she probably let the most go with; she really seemed like she was having a lot of fun with the whole process of creating it and the lyrics are more a tool for imagery rather than narrative, which paints a beautiful picture for the listener. It truly is a shame that it is so under-appreciated by her fanbase.
 
I think the main encompassing feeling and vibe throughout the record is Lana's interpretation of jazz and timelessness, and what the definition of timelessness is, sonically speaking. 
 
It's so soft and lush too. Someone else said it in another thread, and I completely agree with them - there are so many layers to it, you're definitely going to continue to discover different sounds and instruments the more you listen to the songs and even the instrumentals. 
 
I just love Honeymoon so much - it's my favourite Lana album.

a dream
this just makes me even more excited, i feel like she's kinda going back into that more zen and quieter zone maybe, as Malibu was most likely written with the same mindset as BAR, Heroin, WO, Yosemite, etc. before being scrapped and worked on later, same with Change being a last second addition. 
 
regardless i can't wait

Filtered this!! you can most definitely hear "can i get a fucking hallelujah, looking at me like a..." it cuts off at that part bc she starts saying rose garden dreams and you cant hear it anymore

I am now more than convinced BGV lyrics are
 
"Can I get a fucking hallelujah?
Looking at me like a rose garden
Can I get a fucking hallelujah?
Sipping on you like a coca cola" 

This album is just 14 songs of lana indulging in herself and her atmosphere; it's separate from any world but its own which is what makes it so timeless

yes yes yes

Lana has called Honeymoon a “vanity project“

God Knows I Tried has one of her best vocal performances

GKIT is under appreciated and everytime people say 'iTs JUst RepiTiIToION UUuUGHHh' somehow forget how samey and repetitive so many of UV's songs were..literally Sad Girl, while it is a bop, is the worst offender of most everything bad about UV however it's not the worst on the album

Heroin is within lana’s top five of all time.

Bitch that's one of the best analysys I've ever seen
who thinks that swan song is trash probably smokes shit

I recall Lana talking about how time was a central theme throughout the record. That feeling of timelessness and what one's interpretation of timelessness reveals about their own self is what I personally view as an overarching theme throughout the record. 
 
The whole record contains this feeling of time, both moving backwards and forwards. Both melodically and sonically. Burnt Norton in particular illustrates this lyrical idea of certain events and mindsets of different times coexisting in the past, present, and future. I feel like this was included as the interlude of the record because it almost serves as a metaphor for that gap between who Lizzy was/is and who Lana Del Rey is calculated to be. There are parts of Lizzy that exist within Lana and there are parts of Lana that were part of Lizzy even before Lana was calculated. What also leads me to believe this is something Lana said from the Billboard 2015 interview: Lana referred to herself as "her" rather than "I," saying that she's "protective of her - Lana..." Lana also stated this year that she did view "Lana Del Rey" as more of a persona than herself.  Also, in early 2015, Lana changed her Instagram icon to a picture of Lizzy. In terms of the sonic aspect, there is a lot of recycling of various sounds and the inverting of various instrumental sequences throughout songs. For example, the drums at the end of Religion slow down into nothingness, which almost sounds like time stopping. In HBTB, the last "high" sequences are later used for the Swan Song intro. Salvatore features a laugh that sounds both played forward and in reverse (it is more prominent in the instrumental rather than the actual album track). I feel like time is a metaphor for Lana versus Lizzy, and timelessness refers to parts of Elizabeth Woolridge Grant that exist in all versions of herself. 
 
 
Of course, there are also some songs that deal with Lana versus Lizzy, like Swan Song, where she asks both her man and herself if everything they're doing is really worth it, perhaps the theme of freedom in the song is letting go of who Lana Del Rey is ("I will never sing again" is quite open to interpretation but definitely fits this). God Knows I Tried also deals with escaping fame and feeling free. In fact, the whole record is called Honeymoon. A honeymoon is something that is to be enjoyed without any stress, and it is meant to be done in a fashion that ensures the privacy and relaxation of one. The privacy aspect is key to Lana versus Lizzy, because Lana is probably not the coolly detached, stiletto-nailed, false-eyelash batting Lana Del Rey when she's on her own time, at least not at the time of the journeys chronicled in Honeymoon. Honeymoon is the bridge between that persona of Lana from Born to Die, Paradise, and Ultraviolence, to the more grounded, aware of the real world Lana that is present in Lust for Life.
 
I could go on, but I would take forever. Honeymoon is an album that has a lot beyond it's surface and I have so much to say about it. I don't know if what I wrote was what you were looking for, but I hope it was!

God Knows I Tried! It's so underrated and thematically, it contains some of Lana's best lyrics about herself to date!
 
Also, the guitar in it is so Californian in sound. Love it

I feel like Stella got Lana into Adidas lol 

Can we all agree that Heroin, Change and Get Free SHOULD belong at the end of the record? 
 
I see some people saying that Heroin should be in the first half of the album, and I personally think the tracklist works really well, sonically and thematically. 
 
We have Love, LFL, and 13 Beaches at the start, which are quite different but wouldn't really belong anywhere else. 
Then we have the "fiery bops" which start with Cherry and end at IMF. Sonically, they're very contemporary and fun, upbeat songs.
Coachella is the bridge from bops to political songs, while having boppy production and somewhat political related lyrics.
Then we have political songs from GBA - BPBP
TNC is another fun love song, but sonically, it wouldn't work before Coachella, nor would it fit anywhere within Cherry - IMF, so it's placement is perfect, esp after BPBP with Stevie.
 
Then the last 3 tracks document Lana's growth and journey as a human being, so those are perfect.
 
Heroin is Lana hoping to change and describing what went wrong with her life.
Change is Lana anticipating this change.
Get Free is Lana manifesting her hopeful words into an actual change.
