    I personally LOVE it. I think it is my fave. Especially the "because you're young, you're wild, you're free, you're dancing circles around me" part. It gets me every time. And the very beginning of song -the guitar notes that actually open the album- sound so classic and classy...

    Here another casual fan... I understand all the emotion behind discovering and figuring out Lana's lyrics, topics, personal stories and blabla. I really do. I don't know enough things about her private (yeah, private) life to understand the references that you super fans find in her lyrics, but really, why is there always some of you pointing out that some people just like Lana because of her songs when someone says so? Isn't that the point after all? I'm not mad nor offended, I just don't get it. Maybe I've  misunderstood the tone you want to use when you talk about a "casual fan", but it sounds kind of stupidly mocking to me. If you want to do Lana a favour, don't turn into Lana's  Little Monsters ;-) It's OK to worship her, I have never done it because I don't have so much time to spend it reading and studying her, but I'm really starting to love her persona and her way to see the world we live in (and the world she inhabites). I like Lana, mainly because of her songs, but since West Coast I didn't become a Lana fan. Respect that...
     

     
    That said, that would be my ranking of the songs of the album, which I find x1000 more haunting than Born to Die (which is also super amazing) and almost equal to Paradise (UV is better, heh). BtD feels like an excellent recopilation album of her (at that moment) best songs, and that's what debuts usually are (not counting AKA as an official debut since it's not the album that "opened" here to the world), but UV sounds incredible, and it really feels as if it told a story. Amazing. 9/10. I think it would get a 10 if it had just ONE faster song durint the second half... But anyway, I embrace it because of what it is: a gem.

    Haven’t really properly listened to Flipside and Is This Happines, but I like them. Actually there is NO song I dislike, but well, that’s what my ranking would look like.
