Lana's pseudo rapping makes me feel complete. I think the fact that she doesn't do it often makes it even more special.

Not everyone agrees with you on this. And if you're trying to make people come around to your opinion, you're doing a terrible job.
 
Here's the reality:
Adele hit a zeitgeist with her album and hasn't followed it up nearly 5 years later. The Beatles were their own monster, 40 years ago. The comparisons are nonsense. Lana Del Rey has always been on the periphery, she even says it herself. She is an IMMENSELY polarizing figure. The Beatles and Adele are not. They were safe, they were for all ages. Lana Del Rey is not prime-time, she's not Clive Davis, she's not the Grammys, she's not John Lennon, she's not 20x platinum. She is maligned just as much as she is adored. Why are you so intent on making her a Billboard creation? Let the bitch be whatever she wants.

Honestly I have no fucking idea what she could do and I'm sure I'm not in the minority either, I wouldn't be surprised if she disappeared off the face of the planet for 5 years or turned into one of the biggest stars of the year or whatever - I find her very mysterious but feel that if she had the chance to stop for a while she would.
 
After 300+ songs now of pretty much the same topic I do hope this album improves lyrically - I LOVE BTD, Paradise, UV, LDRAKALG, even all of her unreleased stuff and listen to it all the time, am excited as hell for Honeymoon but it would be good to hear some newer topics in her songs. that saying tho I'll love anything she throws at us

just released here in Aus - here y'all go

not being mean but you are literally so basic

Ooh let's derail the thread again!
 
Or, y'know, you could take your rudely worded opinions on UV to a thread that possibly at LEAST has UV in its title. Just a suggestion, though.

You have no taste.

Imagine the Honeymoon era combining the high quality of UV's music with the beautiful visuals from BTD. It could really be something special.

I saw a fake tracklist on instagram today, I wish i had screenshotted, i remember one of them tho was "We Just Really Fucking Hate Gaga" feat. Madonna
Also something about lipsters
Selfie Issues
And my favorite "Honeymoon" feat. Francesco's fingers

This thread went 0 to 100 real quick   
 
At this point I really wonder what she means with "noir" and "jazz-inspired", it could be anything really. Listening to UV gave me the sense that when she says "inspired by jazz" it's more about a certain mood and colour and not so much actual jazz music.

I want the return of the puppy backpack this era

I want an album closer for Honeymoon along the lines of My Best Days.. it seems really fitting in my mind. Like, I'm definitely here for some happier Lana songs, but the longing & reminiscent vibe of My Best Days would be such a great way to close an album with the title Honeymoon in my opinion..
 
Also some of y'all are so rude ew.

She needs to do a full blown covers album. I'd love to see her do a version of Hallelujah, House of the Rising Sun, I Put a Spell On You, Bang Bang, etc.

I am one of those who are here for more hip hop/pop influenced beats and my reasoning behind it is that that's the kind of music I like? Do I need another reason? I have an appreciation for Lana's typical style of music (see: Ride, or like you mentioned, AFFA, JFK, etc) but I also like when an artist has a variety of down-, mid-, and up-tempo songs. Seeing as this last album gave us mostly down- to mid-tempo songs aside from the bop that is Florida Kilos, I would like to see Lana spice it back up, especially if she is planning to go in a happier direction with Honeymoon. Don't get me wrong, it took me awhile to warm up to it, but I like Ultraviolence and the direction she took. It suits her! But I think Lana is a very versatile artist and does really well with faster, hip-hop influenced songs like OTTR and it would be a shame if she never sang another songs in that style. 

I don't know why but when I read or hear Honeymoon i always think of Neil Krug's Photo-shoot for Clash Magazine. Especially this photo -
 

This feels just, so fitting right now

 
No but really even if Me I'm Mariah is a bit excessive, at least he is enthusiastic, which is not a bad thing
Most of you just tend to get a bit too defensive
Anyway, we all agree that there will be a Title track, right?
A song called Honeymoon.
 
She reworked Melancholia just for the sake of having a Title track for UV, Paradise didn't need one since it was an extension of the Born To Die era. I expect a track with that name to exist and it better slay us! (Nah, I know it will )

Oh and there better be an album sampler like The Paradise Edition had. I still watch that video sometimes. It's amazing

I always used to find new music randomly on YouTube and found Video Games soon after it was posted and began picking up steam. I've been hooked ever since.
Exactly what I meant. There's nothing wrong with discussing more vapid topics, but it's the obnoxious manner of some people's delivery that is irritating.

Wow no need for that!

I'd love to hear the demo's of UV if they sounded a lot different to what Dan did with those songs.
 
I'm hoping Mark Ronson will bring back the hip hop beats, I loved them on BTD. Off To The races
 
Can anyone make a summary of everything we know about this album so far please.

It's quite obvious that UV was a personal project for her. I definitely think she used it as a way to vent and probably cope with her failing relationship. It's obvious her label didn't like it, too. I honestly think she's abandoning UV so fast because she wants to move on with that part of her life. I think she's just ready to abandon it and write songs about how happy she is now with her lil Italian boyfriend!
