Belated Honeymoon anniversary post incoming...,.

 

The title track and Terrence Loves You are two of her most beautiful songs. My life was so fucking crazy and bad when Honeymoon was coming out but the gorgeous piano, synths, vocals and songwriting rly ended up overwriting and defining that period of my life. I also think it really solidified a lot of her artistry with the whole sultry mysterious songwriter thing, and also as a beautiful vocalist and talented lyricist. It was less well-received than the last two albums but really confirmed her as an artist that wasn't just necessarily doing what was palatable & chart-worthy.

 

Bonus thoughts: Honeymoon sounds best on the hottest days of the year. This album's bridges are some of the best in her career. The demos are fkn immaculate, Freak demo bridge forever, marry me marry me etc. I miss her Nina Simone covers as album closers so bad. BRING BACK UO EXCLUSIVE VINYL. And we literally both know it's not fashionable to love me like omfg

Omg I just saw that Music To Watch Boys To had its biggest streaming day ever with 143K streams yesterday :oprah:

It deserved and it deserves much more streams:true:

It's one of my faves on the album since Honeymoons release and one of my fave Lana songs to listen to in warmer weather , I was so obsessed with the song and the music video back in 2015  :trisha:

MTWBT is the perfect sunbathing anthem and I just love the production and melody so much. I do think we haven't talked about the drums in the bridge enough, obsessed with them, reminding me of something tropical !!

Glad to see it finally gets more recognition :kiss:

"Swan Song. It’s on my album Honeymoon. It’s the antithesis of hopefulness. It’s about trying to find beauty in giving up. If I had my way, I would continue to persist in all areas of my life, but it can be quite challenging because I can be too trusting too soon."

I don't know if anyone has noticed this but I'll post it here anyway. This seems to be the Japanese Universal Music promo CD version of Honeymoon, I found it from Discogs. Four people claim to have it. It also might be fake but it seems to have all the tags that it belongs to Universal Music label, who knows. It's nice to see that this photo was used as an alternate cover but nothing beats the original for me. The only suspicious thing is that it shows the release date as September 25th, 2015 but I saw from Wikipedia (with a reference) that the CD version was released in Japan on that date (major label American or European albums tend to be released much later in Japan).

Honestly I love the Burnt Norton Interlude so much and it's by far my favorite Interlude of hers :oprah:

Her speaking voice is just so beautiful, I love the poem she recites and the instrumental is so  ethereal and eerie:flutter:

Everytime I listen to it I close my eyes and I find myself being on an island in the middle of the ocean at dawn, it's kinda dark with a hint of a orange at the horizons. On the island  are wild roses everywhere and also some rock formations and cliffs on which I can see wolves. I really love how an Interlude like that can transport me and is creating vivid images in my head.

Now it's time to confess that it is also one of my most listened Honeymoon tracks because I can never skip it, it's an quick easy but beautiful listen and I love to play it sometimes before I go to bed or when I read, relax or watch sunsets or the nightsky. In my opinion this interlude fits Honeymoon perfectly and it's not too long nor too short and it is beautifully crafted. Like the entire album it hasn't lost an ounce of its magic even to its been almost a decade :wub:

 

I also get that some people are fans of interludes and some are not, personally I tend to love interludes and Burnt Norton definitely has a special place in my heart :heart:

BTD and Ultraviolence didnt have their tenth anniversary special release treatment because Honeymoon WILL BE THE FIRST ALBUM TO HAVE HERS.

Just like how Honeymoon is the only album that has no songs featured in the 2023-2024 tour setlist but will always be Lana's most iconic IG username. :true:

I never noticed that Honeymoon is the only album Lana doesn't own, and I'm SO curious as to the lore behind that

 

is this confirmed? I always wonder if Lana actually owned any of her masters or not, like how do we know that? is it the (p) Lana Del Rey?

Yeah (p) means master recording. on every single album it's (p) Lana/Record label or record label/Lana except Honeymoon, which is just the label. 

 

I never noticed it until Honeymounz did a twitter thing about it awhile ago. 

 

edit: I'm wrong, it's always (p) lana, so yeah she owns all of hre records, minus Honeymoon
