Didn't know "California" was so well regarded (well anyone's #1 that is). I love it too, and it almost made my top ten - probably along with a dozen others TBH.
 
"How to Disappear" is probably my favorite underrated Lana track.

John met me down on the boulevard
Cry on his shoulder cause life is hard
The waves came in over my head...
 
she's just been so consistently high quality in her output for almost a whole decade, and kept the albums coming thick and fast throughout that time. there are so many full on 10s.

there's another one :disco:

the what you been up my baby? melody is achingly beautiful. NFR! did tenderness so well.

And then this bit, the way she delivers "California sun" in particular, the warmth. It kind of reminds me of "Tis the Damn Season" for some reason.

Now it's been years since I left New York
I got a kid and two cats in the yard
The California sun and the movie stars...

DC just can't relate to wanting to choke on your own sadness while necking bourbon in a dirty motel room cos your man is off with his Becky. :rolleyes: it's a specific vibe, it's not for every queen.
 
Seriously though, yeah Music To Watch Boys To reminds me of the time around a serious breakup and my PhD defense, ie a very intense period. I still remember exactly when and where I had THAT MOMENT to it.

Glad you made it out OK! I like "Music to Watch..." and the whole Honeymoon LP. It just confuses me how someone can hate Ultraviolence but like anything from that album *downs quaalude* :D

AGREE! (except I don't stan Salvatore or 24-- sub in Terrence Loves You and God Knows I Tried)

It's hard to be Honeymoon when all the other albums SLAP A LITTLE HARDER.

"God Knows I Tried" is really the slept on Lana moment from that album. She was really sad at that time :(

So let there be light
Let there be light
Light up my life
Layyyyy-iiiiiiiiight up my life

LET THERE BE LIGHT
LET THERE BE LIGHT

OMG of course! It's been a while since I had a moment to it!

I can't believe you lot made me sit through an hour of literal ultra violence when we had the lovely Honeymoon instead!
 
I need to listen again in full but god Honeymoon is such a BORING DRAMA FREE RECORD. It really only gets good from Salvatore onwards.
 
Happy to do a Honeymoon sync next, I'm sure we'll have plenty of time before the new album drops. :eyes:

I'm the opposite of @Jark I LOVE the first half, and really don't care for the second half UNTIL "Blackest Day"
 
1. West Coast
2. California
3. Venice Bitch
4. Cruel World
5. Ultraviolence
6. Ride
7. Summertime Sadness
8. Blue Jeans
9. Born To Die
10. Cinnamon Girl
