Lana Del Rey - Blue Banisters (October 22, 2021) • Page 8

Another new song she just debuted live with Nikki Lane and Sierra Ferrell

 

Guess I'm putting on Born To Die then. What an incredible output she's had in 10 years. If i'm considering both quality and quantity, no other artist in the last decade compares to her for me. No one even comes close honestly.

 

i remember when born to die came out and being extremely confused at the largely mid reviews it got. i loved it from the jump and couldnt put it down. the amount of times i listened to the title track and off to the races is astronomical

 

probably still my favorite of her albums

 

i like ultraviolence and NFR more but its up there

 

oh yeah, NFR is my favorite actually. Born to Die is an easy second after that though

 

I'm prob NFR>UV>BTD and then it could really go anywhere from there

 

It/she got a ton of hate here. National Anthem was on repeat for me. Loved the video too with ASAP Rocky. What a fun time.

 

Blue Banisters = Ultraviolence
NFR
Born to Die/Paradise
Chemtrails
Honeymoon
Lust for Life

 

NFR
BTD
LFL
Ultra = Honey











Chemtrails
Blue Banisters

 

I respect your list but I don't understand it.

 

well I think her two latest albums are pretty horrible, so that's a start

 

i like both albums quite a bit, blue banisters more, but i dont return to either much.

ultraviolence
NFR
born to die
honeymoon
blue banisters
lust for life
chemtrails


i think cruel world through west coast is one of the best runs of songs on any album ever

 

ultraviolence
nfr
lust for life
born to die
honeymoon
blue banisters
paradise ep
chemtrails

 

Definitely (man, that solo on Shades of Cool...). Relatedly, Dan Auerbach's contribution to UV is easily the best work he's ever done. What an atmosphere on that album.

 

idk about a ranking but Born To Die is great. I was a fan when that dropped, and really enjoyed "Video Games" a lot, then I stopped following her career for whatever reason until somewhat recently and that album still holds up

 

Hm. What are everyone's thoughts on this take?

 

pretty bad take, is what. also solidifies why I don't go on twitter

 

This is what I get for following a bunch of Pitchfork writers haha

 

Bad take. Born to Die was always good, never had to re-evaluate it

 

Speaking of reevaluating

 

7.8 still too low

 

Born to Die always ruled

 

I’ve always loved Born to Die. It was the album that got me into Lana, as it was around the time it came out. If someone didn’t like Born to Die back then but finally clicked with Lana from another album, that’s okay! I know it’s happened to me with other artist where I didn’t appreciate their earlier works until one day it just finally clicked. Sounds like that guy is just mad that others don’t share that same sentiment.
