Lana is not everyone but once it hits you it hits hard. I remember ignoring lana’s music years ago. But I discovered her again in 2019 and it changed EVERYTHING. She instantly became my fav artist of all time. She is a GOAT already.
@@Angel-xi6vvsame i feel like that’s an album you need to be familiar w her earlier work to fully appreciate it and listen to it multiple times to fully appreciate the lyrical content
If you like all music you’ll like Lana. If your familiar with old western, Italian music from the 60’s, Woodstock music, crooner music, 90’s grunge… you’ll love Lana. She’s a blend of all the musical she loves.
I’d say lana’s music is definitely an acquired taste. I first heard lana back in 2015 and thought she was mid, 2016 and I liked one song which was young and beautiful. I tried to listen to ultraviolence around 2017 and got bored. 2018 I listened to born to die paradise and I fell inlove and just got what it was that made her special. Norman fucking rockwell came out and that solidified lana as one of my favorite artists of all time. I guess what I’m tryna say is her music definitely ain’t for everyone but the artistry has always been there and sometimes that draws people to her. (P.S I went back and listened to her entire discography after NFR and now I love all of them)
So glad you're embarking on a Lana deep dive! I've been listening to Lana for just a few years now. She may take a little time to get into. But once you do, it will be like 'Where have you been all my life?' She's a brilliant artist and poet. It's little wonder that Taylor worships her. If you're going chronologically, don't forget to listen to the Paradise EP next (which includes "Cola", a song Lana has "retired" because it mentions Harvey Weinstein) and the "Young and Beautiful" single (one of her most popular tracks) before digging into the Ultraviolence album. I know you said you found Ocean Blvd. boring on first listen....It may grow on you and should be AOTY. The more you know about Lana and her personal life, the more you'll appreciate the songs. Even the weirdest ones are autobiographical to some degree. She also frequently references other songs and literature in her lyrics (e.g "fire of my loins" is the opening passage from Nabokov's 'Lolita'). It's fun spotting the references. 😊
Im always here so soon lol! but Im SO HAPPY that u listened to Born to die, i'm a Lana fan and i can say its my all time fav album .. The vibe and the songs are great, the production is awesome, i even own a cd! i hope u dive into Lana's music more, i strongly recommend Ultraviolence. Its a beautiful but painful album, you should definitely check it out!
actually this album has had a massive resurgence the past few years and when it originally came out it wasn’t necessarily received well, now people seem to enjoy it more and critics like pitchfork & rolling stone are even re-scoring it to higher ratings and the songs almost tripling in streams the last 3 years even though it’s a decade old album. just goes to show why it’s the second longest charting female album of all time just behind Adele’s 21. anyway finally you listened to lana!!!
Yay! Love Lana. Born to Die is my favorite just because it was the first, but also love NFR. I hear A LOT of Lana influence on Taylor Swift 1989 personally.
I feel like you’re going to have a hard time getting through her discography tbh. Born to Die is her “fastest” album imo, the rest are a lot slower. Most of her work are highly personalized ballads sung to the backdrop of whatever genre of music she feels like. She’s always had the 50’s lounge singer vibe though and it’s not for everyone. Especially if you like fast paced music. Wiki has her down as Alt-pop, Lana called it Hollywood Sadcore at the time, which was fitting because she used to say she wanted to be dead and thought about death endlessly. Her work touches on a lot of darker corners like abusive relationships, addiction, mental illness, death, etc… It’s not a requirement to have dealt with those things to listen, but a lot of her fans love her so much because she sings very prettily about the awful and painful things they’ve also felt.
Maybe you should listen to Ultraviolence next! And also, I think you'd maybe enjoy the Paradise EP, it is really good (born to die is so much better in the paradise edition btw)
Hey man! Whenever u do Ultraviolence, pls don't forget to listen to the Deluxe version + extra tracks released later ("Is This Happiness" and "Flipside", which you'll only find on youtube)
For me her best work is ultraviolence (It has darker vibes which i love). But again, it's not for everyone. I knew you wouldn't like her music even before clicking cuz i watched your previous music reaction videos lol Idk if you'd react to the rest of her discography but I'd love to see you react. Especially ultraviolence
I love HONEST reacts like this one!!!!!!!! I am a Lana stan and I like when people really says i don't like it or i like it! both answers are acceptable ♥
I suggest you listen to Lust for Life next because it kind of covers most of the sounds Lana does and is personally my favorite album by her or listen to Norman Rockwell next because it is her best album objectively
as a lana fan i feel like her music is really subjective and unique but im glad u liked it!!! i feel like theres two other big albums if you didnt like ocean blvd you might enjoy nfr a bit more than ultraviolence but thats just my opinion!!
watching your review just reminded me how much I love this album! it's always such a fun and easy listen for me with every song during this vid, i was like "omg such a good song!" But my fave is Off to the Races so I'm glad it ended in your top 5. Looking forward to your next LDR review, esp bc your opinion is not gonna be the same since her albums differ so much from one another. Also, was it recently your birthday? If so, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! If not, you can keep the congratulations for when it is. What made you decide to start a channel/do music reviews? Final question, can you review CHRIS STAPLETON'S TRAVELLER? Incredible album, I reckon it's something you've never heard before. Cheers mate!
haha yea its a great album! def looking forward to hearing more from her! and thank u!!! my bday is actually next week but I appreciate it sm!!! and I'll def look into chris stapleton not very familiar w him at all :)))
you gotta listen to ultraviolence next!!! it’s a rite of passage bc btd lovers were least expecting the shift of mood and aura of her second best album !!
🥲im late for video i was totally looking forward for but yes i still think this album made a very big impact on the industry ...lana is the artist where more u listen to more u vibe with the songs so im very excited about next video's i recommend ultraviolence
you should’ve listened to aka before, it was an album she released in 2010 but pulled it from the market bc of a bad record label deal, born to die will make more sense, and then i think you should follow it chronological order, (paradise which is an ep included), love these videos!
@@jasonpaulkim no problem, also one thing about lana albums, every closing track gives you a bit of taste of what the next album will be like (obv some exceptions)
I really appreciate you actually getting down to the content. Most people just give you vague ideas like - OMG that's so good but I like the way you analyze the lyrics and like you have the connect with your audience! Lana, I feel is one of the artists I haven't really listened to fairly and probably have come across her songs in some videos and stuff (Like Radio, I'm guessing?) so after this video, I think I NEED to go check her work! Thanks so much! Also Idk if you noticed but 'Timeless' in the album review part.. lol :))
Hey this is so random, but I think you would love an artist called Rina Sawayama. If you ever do a different artist reaction video, I highly recommend her album “SAWAYAMA” it has an interesting and very experimental track list (pop, heavy rock, techno, ballad) and would make for an entertaining listen.
i usually love watching lana del rey reaction but I didn't finish this video and unlike it when you start slamming god-tier btd singles. Maybe i should focus on musically inclined reactors instead of wasting time to tasteless people in RUclips
You really didn't pay attention to the lyrics at all lmao. The lyrics are more important than anything when we're talking lana. Anyway, normal f-ing rockwell is fire, and the new album has the best lyrics of any album in the 2000s lol. You have no idea.
Lana’s just not totally for ya it seems, her other albums are so much more niche than this one, they’re not radio friendly at all and so far away from mainstream stuff, so you’ll probably hate them ngl.
Oh it's gonna be tough for you to go through her discography ahah I have the same issue as you with Lana I personally find it repetitive (lyrics wise gorgeous) but the albums drag a bit much for me. That being said this one album is the one I thought was the most varied ahha you'll find songs you enjoy in every album though so no worries Maybe norman f. Norwell?
@@jasonpaulkim can't wait to watch it! And congrats on your channel growing so much! Been here since your first Taylor swift video I'm really happy for you ✌️
id say so it in chronological order for albums. Id also say that initially her first albums were the pulling point for me, i joined the fan base shortly after the nfr album release. The 3 after that arent usually my vibe but since i LOVE her now i can appreciate the albums so much and actually enjoy them a lot. I'd also say dont listen to Ocean Bld again, maybe save it until you've done the rest so you can see if after a while of seeing the Lana world you appreciate it 💕
@@jasonpaulkim also i just got the end of the video and the switch up in the last few songs is so funny lmao. You said you were sad you were getting to the end of the album because you had been enjoying it and i was like... were you? 🤨 Anyways if you decide to continue her albums each have completely different vibes so im sure youd find a few songs you like ❤
Norman Fucking Rockwell should def me next. I’m not a die hard fan of hers more of a casual/passive fan and respect her as an artist but that album is so good. Cinnamon Girl and Happiness is a Butterfly was what made me go from “she’s overrated” to “hmm I can see the appeal” also your top 5 are so real
I'm not about to stop you from making 9 pretty fun videos.... but you probably only really have to do one for Born to Die, Lust for Life, Norman Fucking Rockwell, and then maybe give Ocean Blvd another shot. (I'm still undecided on it, frankly) There's good stuff on all her records, but those first 3 are the heavy hitters, not necessarily the "Fan favorites" but certainly the biggest commercially and critically.
I know Ultraviolence gets a lot of love from the LDR fans, but it's honestly pretty mid. it's just that after Born to Die came out and became a big influential hit, everyone was so excited for more Lana, that they didn't really care that it didn't have any of the highs of the first record, it was MORE! And, loving Dan Auerbach as much as I do (The Black Keys might be a top 10 band for me), his production is not nearly as interesting as Born to Die. It gives up the most exciting production choices for more straight ahead blues-rock styling. I will admit that the lyrics may be slightly better... but it's not her best work to date. If you weren't listening to it in 2014, I think it's a skip, honestly. Or for fans that want more, rather.
First video I ever watched from you and boy I’m happy I did. Love your edition, ur so funny! Btw, I agree with people saying in the coments that u should go in order, otherwise it might feel weird to you like when u tried the ocean blv first. And next on its Paradise EP before Ultraviolence!!! ❤️ super excited
DEFINITELY listen to her Paradise EP next (along with Young and Beautiful the single for the Gatsby movie), and then NFR (norman f**ing rockwell) that album is my favorite of her’s and it’s easy for someone to get into
YUPPP IM HAPPY about THIS! idk why but I view born to die as like Lana’s 1989 😭… or lust for life is her 1989… while the rest of her career is like reputation and red… but her last few albums have been folklore, evermore type beat. You’ll understand what I mean I’m not saying Lana is at all a copy of Taylor she’s very unique
Okay ik everyone has their own opinions but Not Carmen it’s soooooo goodd and the whole album tbh theirs not one that doesn’t slap like in my opinion I don’t like Taylor or Olivia bc they just don’t interest me bc idk I think they are basic and mid
Lol don't post the reaction if you are gonna dislike majority of her songs. You gonna get the wrath of Lana stans. With her, either you like it and into it or you don't and think her songs all sound the same.
for me, Lana has songs which i love but unlike other artists which i enjoy their albums in their entirety despite skips, her albums really have me bored through the middle and enjoy just a few tracks at the end- dare i say, she has unreleased songs i enjoy more than the released ones sometimes 😅 i guess she has a sound that doesnt always works for me but when it does, it hits hard like i adore diet mountain dew, dark paradise and summertime sadness from this album! but the rest is so forgettable to me and like this is her most acclaimed album u know? that makes me sad 😭 but maybe she'll grow on me ig
If u like this more than tunnel under ocean blvb I can already tell lust for life is gonna be for u… paradise ep is also necessary to listen to! I assume next will be ultraviolence reaction. I love this album but when I first heard it I hated it 😭💀… my friend overhyped this album so I went in having high expectations just to be let down… after a week I ended up liking it… now I love it though
i think norman fucking rockwell should be next but you probably should pay more attention to the lyrics and her slower songs sometimes need more to grow on you but it will worth to pay attention if you ask me!!! her songwriting i think is the best at norman fucking rockwell and ocean blvd so you should really take your time with them ok love you bye
U not liking tunnel under ocean blvb is understandable and I respect that but godamn… this is the only album I’ve actually ever cried to why u got to do it like that 😭…but to be fair that’s mainly cuz I listened to it during a time where I reconnected with family and it was during a time where songs like Kintsugi hit hard
i love Lana, but i can't freely recommend her songs to my friends and everyone cz i know Lana isn't for everybody which is unfortunate. she's not like Ariana, Taylor or Olivia who's everyone can easily enjoy listening. but somehow this is makes her stands out as an artist, she have the ability to embrace who she is and walk in her own path. she's not trying to shine, she's just like writing and singing. i know this is your first reaction, Ocean Blvd is sooooo special like other album by Lana. every album suppose to take the listener to certain vibes, place, and mood. even tho you give us your honest opinion, its still bothered me😂 when you said Ocean Blvd is boring (my heart broke!) not to force you to liking it tho. i'm not ready for this journey, especially with Ultraviolance, Honeymoon, and Norman fucking Rockwell!. NFR is the only one album that help me go through quarantine time, if someone doesn't like it. I don't like her/him too😤😭
He doesn't get it.
Yes, he doesn't have that humor
Lana is not everyone but once it hits you it hits hard. I remember ignoring lana’s music years ago. But I discovered her again in 2019 and it changed EVERYTHING. She instantly became my fav artist of all time. She is a GOAT already.
yea i could see tht! hoping the same happens for me lol
This is me after she release NFR, Honeymoon become my fave Lana album
Ocean Blvd is so great, I think it's her most personal lyrics. def give it another shot
i def will at the end of the series!!
As a big Lana fan, I wasn't 100% sold at first, but that album grew onto me like crazy. Some of the best songs we've gotten from Lana in a while.
@@Angel-xi6vvsame i feel like that’s an album you need to be familiar w her earlier work to fully appreciate it and listen to it multiple times to fully appreciate the lyrical content

FINALLY YOU LISTENED TO LANA
WOOOOO
idk if you’ll like ultraviolence (her 2nd album) but please listen to it it’s really dark and full on and amazing omg
will do :)
HEYY ❤
@@alliwantforchristmas_ HEY MY LOVE❤️
Off to the races is an insane song for the time it came out. So unique
frrr
the best fr
I’d say lana’s music is definitely an acquired taste. I first heard lana back in 2015 and thought she was mid, 2016 and I liked one song which was young and beautiful.

yea even when i didn't like some of the songs i still could appreciate them as being well executed
the national anthem slander hurt
frrrr
lmao sorry to disappoint :(
Omg it's finally here! And btw, i recommend listening to her albums in order, to understand her point and storytelling better 💞💞
yayyy and thank u i will do tht :)
So glad you're embarking on a Lana deep dive! I've been listening to Lana for just a few years now. She may take a little time to get into.

wow thts fascinating lol thanks for the insight
Yay! Love Lana. Born to Die is my favorite just because it was the first, but also love NFR.
I hear A LOT of Lana influence on Taylor Swift 1989 personally.
ahhh gotcha! never thought abt tht but i'll keep it in mind as i keep listening
Yeah.. I love Taylor’s music but wildest dreams sounds a lot like without you…
National anthem is literally amazing omg
lana is for acquired taste. this guy obviously has poor taste as we can see the lover album on the wall 😂
oh i already can't wait for the NFR video, i've always liked her but that's the album that made me understand the hype
haha i'll keep tht in mind
YESSSSSS IM SO HAPPY U DID THIS 💞
I'm currently a developing lana fan sorta but I'm OBSESSED with her music, and I'm so glad u reviewed it FINALLY ;D
glad u enjoyed!!!
national anthem, dark paradise & radio is probably her most digestible 3 track run
the best way to listen to lanas albums is in order. that way you will acquire a taste for slower songs
noted :)
I feel like you’re going to have a hard time getting through her discography tbh. Born to Die is her “fastest” album imo, the rest are a lot slower.
Most of her work are highly personalized ballads sung to the backdrop of whatever genre of music she feels like. She’s always had the 50’s lounge singer vibe though and it’s not for everyone. Especially if you like fast paced music.
Wiki has her down as Alt-pop, Lana called it Hollywood Sadcore at the time, which was fitting because she used to say she wanted to be dead and thought about death endlessly. Her work touches on a lot of darker corners like abusive relationships, addiction, mental illness, death, etc…
It’s not a requirement to have dealt with those things to listen, but a lot of her fans love her so much because she sings very prettily about the awful and painful things they’ve also felt.
You’re going to get your lashings for National Anthem
lol
FROM THE FIRST TIME I WATCHED U, I requested lana. i am beyond happy u are doing Lana
haha yay!!!
@@jasonpaulkimi can’t wait for u to react to nfr !! I think imo that’s her most amazing album

Maybe you should listen to Ultraviolence next! And also, I think you'd maybe enjoy the Paradise EP, it is really good (born to die is so much better in the paradise edition btw)

Hey man! Whenever u do Ultraviolence, pls don't forget to listen to the Deluxe version + extra tracks released later ("Is This Happiness" and "Flipside", which you'll only find on youtube)
"Flipside", for instance, was only released on the physical version for the Japanese audience
haha alright thanks for letting me know :) i'll try to remember

I hope you continue with this LDR journey.

i liked it lol
EVERYONE AGREES YOU NEED TO DO CONAN GRAY!😊
and i will soon
Lana’s just not totally for ya it seems, her other albums are so much more niche than this one, they’re not radio friendly at all and so far away from mainstream stuff, so you’ll probably hate them ngl.

I'm not about to stop you from making 9 pretty fun videos.... but you probably only really have to do one for Born to Die, Lust for Life, Norman Fucking Rockwell, and then maybe give Ocean Blvd another shot. (I'm still undecided on it, frankly) There's good stuff on all her records, but those first 3 are the heavy hitters, not necessarily the "Fan favorites" but certainly the biggest commercially and critically.

It gives up the most exciting production choices for more straight ahead blues-rock styling. I will admit that the lyrics may be slightly better... but it's not her best work to date. If you weren't listening to it in 2014, I think it's a skip, honestly. Or for fans that want more, rather.
thanks for the advice i'll def keep tht in mind
CONAN GRAY SHOULD BE NEXT!!
AGREEEE
First video I ever watched from you and boy I’m happy I did. Love your edition, ur so funny! Btw, I agree with people saying in the coments that u should go in order, otherwise it might feel weird to you like when u tried the ocean blv first. And next on its Paradise EP before Ultraviolence!!! ❤️ super excited
haha thank u! glad u enjoyed :)
U should listen to the demos of diet mountain dew and national anthem they are seen as better than the ones on the album by most
ahh alright thanks for lmk
Ocean Blvd is a grower
I didn't like it in my initial listen but I appreciate it more now. Sure it has some skips
i'm sure by the time i get to it in my deep dive i'll enjoy it :)
DEFINITELY listen to her Paradise EP next (along with Young and Beautiful the single for the Gatsby movie), and then NFR (norman f**ing rockwell) that album is my favorite of her’s and it’s easy for someone to get into
If this is a full marathon, I'll be subscribing 🤩
imma try to do all of them lol
YUPPP IM HAPPY about THIS! idk why but I view born to die as like Lana’s 1989 😭… or lust for life is her 1989… while the rest of her career is like reputation and red… but her last few albums have been folklore, evermore type beat. You’ll understand what I mean I’m not saying Lana is at all a copy of Taylor she’s very unique
can you do a video on paramore? i LOVE there new album!!!!!!!
yesss i def will soon :)))
happy to see some lolita appreciation though, tired of people claiming that song is bad!!
it's a banger
I am here for lana content❤❤❤
yay
Good vid don’t forget to listen The paradise ep songs before doing ultra😊
got it
Okay ik everyone has their own opinions but Not Carmen it’s soooooo goodd and the whole album tbh theirs not one that doesn’t slap like in my opinion I don’t like Taylor or Olivia bc they just don’t interest me bc idk I think they are basic and mid
Lol don't post the reaction if you are gonna dislike majority of her songs. You gonna get the wrath of Lana stans. With her, either you like it and into it or you don't and think her songs all sound the same.
not liking 3 songs isn't the majority bro lol
Totally Agree
for me, Lana has songs which i love but unlike other artists which i enjoy their albums in their entirety despite skips, her albums really have me bored through the middle and enjoy just a few tracks at the end- dare i say, she has unreleased songs i enjoy more than the released ones sometimes 😅 i guess she has a sound that doesnt always works for me but when it does, it hits hard like i adore diet mountain dew, dark paradise and summertime sadness from this album! but the rest is so forgettable to me and like this is her most acclaimed album u know? that makes me sad 😭 but maybe she'll grow on me ig
LISTEN TO CONAN GRAY INSTEAD
Wtf
If u like this more than tunnel under ocean blvb I can already tell lust for life is gonna be for u… paradise ep is also necessary to listen to! I assume next will be ultraviolence reaction. I love this album but when I first heard it I hated it 😭💀… my friend overhyped this album so I went in having high expectations just to be let down… after a week I ended up liking it… now I love it though
thanks for letting me know lol
it's such an honor to be 1 of the earliest followers!
it's an honor to have u following me :)
Wished you liked it more 😔😞 maybe shes just not 4 u 🤷🏻
seems like smth i need to listen to more to appreciate. just one listen ain't enough uk
i think norman fucking rockwell should be next but you probably should pay more attention to the lyrics and her slower songs sometimes need more to grow on you but it will worth to pay attention if you ask me!!! her songwriting i think is the best at norman fucking rockwell and ocean blvd so you should really take your time with them ok love you bye
yea i def grazed over them in this one but i'll pay closer attention in the next one :)
in my opinion NFR is her best album
noted :)
yup a&w definitely stands for the company :D
🫣
CONANNNNNNNNNNN
THE DAY IVE BEEN WAITING FOR IS FINALLY HERE
woo!!!
U not liking tunnel under ocean blvb is understandable and I respect that but godamn… this is the only album I’ve actually ever cried to why u got to do it like that 😭…but to be fair that’s mainly cuz I listened to it during a time where I reconnected with family and it was during a time where songs like Kintsugi hit hard
i love Lana, but i can't freely recommend her songs to my friends and everyone cz i know Lana isn't for everybody which is unfortunate. she's not like Ariana, Taylor or Olivia who's everyone can easily enjoy listening.
but somehow this is makes her stands out as an artist, she have the ability to embrace who she is and walk in her own path. she's not trying to shine, she's just like writing and singing.
i know this is your first reaction, Ocean Blvd is sooooo special like other album by Lana. every album suppose to take the listener to certain vibes, place, and mood. even tho you give us your honest opinion, its still bothered me😂 when you said Ocean Blvd is boring (my heart broke!) not to force you to liking it tho.
i'm not ready for this journey, especially with Ultraviolance, Honeymoon, and Norman fucking Rockwell!. NFR is the only one album that help me go through quarantine time, if someone doesn't like it. I don't like her/him too😤😭
lowkey her best album and my intro to her
i disagree with national anthem ( demo version is better)
Do NFR next it’s godtier
gotcha
Listen to her discography chronically
gotcha :)
i have an album you can listen to 1 year late… it’s called preachers daughter by Ethel Cain
