I am crazy about "Hollywood's Dead" right now. The chorus is so damn good and I can't stop singing "You're sickeningly beautiful." Wish she would make a more orchestral version and release it.

Love this song.  It's actually a lot deeper than most people think, juxtaposed with Whitman's poem.  I always viewed it as being about a sad woman, who obviously has lost someone, and is trying to find happiness ie. her soul through her physical body.  I like how, in the beginning, the religious members of society (Mary) are praying for her because they believe that's the wrong way to live, but convert to the other side at the end.  It's very dark and tragic but hopeful at the same time.

These lyrics are epically good at capturing both the love and hate involved in a mentally destructive relationship. I really appreciate the feelings of desperation here, that the only escape is through drugs and, ultimately, in one person simply killing himself. Tragic. Beautiful.

I often facepalm at Lana's lyrics (but I have some tattooed on me as well...) LOL.
 
I fucking hate every reference to "your golden grill."  I also think the lyrics to "Stoplite Delite" are dumb, especially:
 
"Fly body, dope in the face."
 
I thought the song was really cute and catchy till I caught myself singing that godawful line.

Unpopular opinion or not?-  This Is What Makes Us Girls is actually a great story song.

I forgot to add that I also relate to the juxtaposition of Lana the person vs. Lana the writer.  So much of what she writes is heavy, dark and depressing as hell yet her character in settings with fans is delightfully cheery and friendly.  I think I'm like this too.  It's about having 2 different facets to your personality and needing to express both in different ways.

Define "successfully." 

OMG I just discovered this song and it's so beautiful
 
I actually really love the May Jailer era...

I'm coming out of seclusion to rant about the beauty of this album.  It doesn't beat UV, but it's amazing dark mood music.
 
BEST TRACK:  "God Knows I Tried."  Seems slow and dull, but is actually majestic.  The lyrics are perfectly Lana and also perfectly me.  I almost cried the first time I heard that "Let there be light, light up my life" part of the bridge.

GKIT is just one of the best songs I heard in my life
 

 
Only the first part of UV keeps up with HM. HM is longer, if we cut the 4 weakest songs from HM it's better than UV. Wait, I cannot cut 4 songs from HM only 2 maybe.
 
HM>UV>BTD it's amazing tho that she topped UV.

I would kiss Lana for sure, like you're gonna pass that chance up out of respect.  Oh, hell no!  LOL.  I mean I respect Lana greatly and think she's slightly crazy for doing this with fans, but imagine the stories you'd have.  And what if you wound up getting some virus from her?  You could tell everyone that you got ill from making out with Lana Del Rey 

I deleted pretty much all of her "pop" songs from my iTunes.  LOL.  I just can't stand them!
