    I'm so French red wine flows in my blood and I have baguettes for arms but when Looking For America chorus comes on I have an urge to stand up and put my right hand on my heart and look at the stars with a single tear running from my eye

    Honeymoon is a mood, I guess. It's mellow, laid-back, melancholic. She sounds so aerial on that one. It's her most «Old Hollywood» record to date, which I love, and it also has a lot of «Mediterranean charm» to it as well. There are so many wow moments that hit you after a couple of times. it is also her most perfect record to listen to when you are working on something else (computer, homework, writing): it puts you in a transe. Her voice is so superb. And I love that it's like nothing that is out there. Listening to UV, it felt as if I had found a lost end-of-sixties vinyl by an unknown singer; with HM, it was as if I had found a 40's-or-50's-diva-starlet vinyl.

    Lana Del Rey released her fourth major-label studio album Lust for Life on July 21, 2017. It followed 2015's Honeymoon and serves as a development of its concept -- getting over the past -- and sound, a mix of classic baroque pop, modern hip hop and trap beats, slightly electronic production and ambient psychedelia.

    Lust for Life was a major commercial success. It debuted at the No. 1 and inside the Top 10 in eleven and fifteen countries respectively. It was one of the best-selling and most acclaimed pop albums of that year, despite being her most divisive among fans. Del Rey promote the album with the highly successful LA to the Moon Tour, which visited the Americas, Europe and Australia.
     


    The album could be divided in three parts. The first ("Love," "Lust for Life" and "13 Beaches") features great hooks, trip hop beats reminiscent of her early sound. To achieve this 'soft pop' production, she's worked with Emile Haynie, Benny Blanco, The Weeknd and Max Martin. The lyrics go from positive messages to her fans to her desire to find inner peace.

    Highlight: "Lust for Life", an electronic track with intense verses and oppositely care-free chorus about putting love above all during dark times, a theme that is present throughout the whole project.
     


    The second part, from the sultry "Cherry" to the anthemic "When the World Was at War We Kept Dancing", finds Del Rey at her most extrovert and modern, both lyrically -- from sexual innuendos to slightly political topics -- and musically; hard trap beats, synthesizers and up-to-date collaborators: Boy-1da, A$AP Rocky, Playboy Carti, T-Minus and Metro Boomin.

    Highlight: Sister-tracks "Summer Bummer" and "Groupie Love" (both featuring A$AP Rocky), perhaps Lana Del Rey's closest interaction with trap music. The former is a rap battle between Lana and her wooer Rocky, while the latter follows the same concept in a more chilled, trippy way.
     


    The third and last part (from the haunting, piano-driven "Beautiful People Beautiful Problems" to the inspiring "Get Free") is a collection of mellow, introspective ballads. Collaborators include Sean Onno Lennon, Stevie Nicks and Justin Parker. The digitally programmed beats are gone and there's space for piano, acoustic guitar, real bass, drums, multiple layers of vocals and reverb in iconic LDR fashion. The lyrics are some of her most personal yet, the main topic being believing in change and its effects (and also, perhaps, proving that one can change).

    Highlight: "Heroin", a progressive ambient track about isolation, leaving the past behind and changing for good in order to look back retrospectively.
     


    What are your thoughts on this album?
    Favorite song? Have any of the tracks grown on you?

    Personally, I love this album and, despite not being my ultimate favorite, it's the one that hit me the most emotionally and experiencing live is the most beautiful memory I have. I can even say it helped me save my life.
