so excited for you to hear NFR, one of the best albums of all time

I love how lust for life contrasts the title born to die, she's so funny

You said you want an angry Lana... just wait for "dealer" OMG I can't wait for you to hear it

FINALLY someone who appreciates Groupie love

i think that LFL feels very conclusive, and in fact is the conclusion of a certain style and aesthetic for lana. i love the parallels it has with born to die: the title itself, the facts that she's smiling in the cover, the call back to ride, also in get free she says "finally im crossing the threshold" whilst in btd she sings "take me to the finish line", in tomorrow never came she mentions the pouring rain...

1. When you listen carefully, "white Mustang" sounds like "why I'm staying?" 2. Heroin is a metaphor for fame. 3. 13 Beaches is literal in its meaning, she really travelled 13 beaches once to find one empty, to avoid fans and paparazzi. 4. Change was added to the album just one day before sending it to vinyl manufacture, hence it is just piano. 5. Love is a song Lana dedicated to her fans 6. Lana promised The Weeknd that he would be the first ever feature she would do on her album, so she kept pormise. The Weekend supported Lana when she was just a newcomer after Video game release. 7. In live version of Get Free, she says for Amy and for Whitney, adding full context. This album is filled of easter eggs.

For me, Get Free It is one of Lana's most important songs. Such a masterpiece.

Girl I am having such an awful week this is perfect timing

i am SO EXCITED for the next 4 albums because of the way you actually listen to the lyrics

Cherry is such a sexy hypnotizing song

A little fact about white mustang is that if you aren't reading the lyrics, it can also sound like "why am I staying? Yeah, why am I staying?" in the chorus! When I first read about this hidden thing Lana did I loved the song even more

Lust for life isn't my fav album of hers but no one can say it's a bad album. It's so unique and deep cause she talks a lot about politics

For me, it's the way she sings, "Can I get a fuckin' hallelujah, sippin' on ya like a Coca-Cola."

Not my fav album but GET FREE IS A MASTERPIECEEEE

fun fact about get free: in the beginning of 2018 she was sued by radiohead bc “it sounded like creep”, and in march she said “my lawsuit's over, I guess I can sing that song any time I want" also in the live version she says for amy and for whitney

I WAITED SO LONG FOR THIS!!

Her next album NFR is considered her magnum opus by most. I think it’s right up you’re alley as well

The song "heroin" is about Lana's ex-boyfriend who died because of heroin.

When she performs Get Free live she fills in the blanks as sings “For Amy (Winehouse) and for Whitney (Houston), and all my birds of paradise who never got to fly at night”

When u are listening to NFR its important to keep the artist Norman Rockwell in the back of ur mind :) His art was mainly about the American dream and Lana chose his name because she wanted to know what his thoughts would be right now if he saw the current state America was in (anno 2019). Also in the album cover u see a lot of hints about the context of the album (her reaching her hand out to us, American flag in the background, wildfires on the land, the pop art in which the title is created, etc... Have fun its a good album ❤ Love ur videos x

Also the first half of the album is the LUST portion and second half is the LIFE portion. That’s why the second half is different from the first

This album is definitely a grower. In the beginning, I only liked 2-3 songs from it. But after a few months I started paying more attention to it and now it's in my top 3 favorite albums of hers. With time you'll see the beauty of each song in this 😍😊. Also! - White Mustang can also be heard as "Why am I staying?". The next time you play that song, you'll hear it! - "White Mustang" and "In My Feelings" were written for G-Eazy. Lana had a short relationship with him but he was really shady with her. In short, he cheated on her and when she helped him write a song, he took it and released it with another female singer (that's why Lana says "In My Feelings": "While you're taking what is mine, well you know what you're doing").

My top 5 1. 13 beaches 2. Cherry 3. Change 4. Lust for life 5. When the wold was at war we kept dancing

The album is a huuuuge grower. I remember on my initial listen it was my least fav album, but now it’s like #2 out of the 9 she has. The overall concept is just so beautiful to me and it’s really impacted my own life for the better ❤️

I can't believe u got the privilege to listen to NFR! for the first time

this is album is amazing and cohesive and i am more sure about it every reaction i see. lust for life do NOT deserves the hate it gets. it's one of her bests

I think this album represents the end of an era for her, with "Lust 4 life" being a parallel for "Born 2 die". It's definitely a polarizing album but a grower as well for sure, Can't wait for your NFR reaction, that album literally changed my life

even though Love was the song she wrote for her fans, Get Free is the song we claimed. in the concerts, that’s so clear. we scream to it with all our hearts and it’s probably one of the best lana songs to experience in concert. ❤️

Change is a masterpiece! That piano and vocals are heavenly!

When she claimed cherry 💅🏻💅🏻💅🏻

I love to watch your Lana journey. You always has meaningful comments and seems to really get her style and appreciate her lyrics and the specifics in production of each album. Also, it's nice that you're doing them in order and that you take your time between each album. I love to see you "claiming" a song and them your ranking at the end of each video, and also when you drop a new Lana video and let us know which songs of the preview album you're listening to the most. Really cool, Cass, can't wait for your thoughts on NFR! :)

summer bummer is a summer bop. let's just accept it, fellas. absolutely vibes. love it

clicked on this one so fast, I can't wait for you to continue your Lana journey!!!! . fun thing about White Mustang, when she says "your white mustang" it can also be heard as "yo why am I staying?"

Summer Bummer not being dead last FOR ONCE? I have to Stan

13 beaches & Cherry are the 2 elite from this album 🙌❤️‍🔥

I love how much you pay attention to the lyrics cause I got into Lana's music because of the instrumentals/production I finally understand the lyrics much better cause you analyze it

I felt the exact same way when I first listened to this album. And half of it I just stoped listening for a long time. But for some reason I started to listen the full album again and I feel different, I like it so much more and I understand it much more, it has a 70s vibe that I wasn’t familiar and used to before. It’s just a cute album, so so cute ♥️

get free is the perfect transition to NFR

I really can’t wait for NFR😭 please post it asap

this album such a masterpiece❤🎉

Million dollar man still being your fav ever is so iconic honestly!! You really are becoming one of us

I was just watching your honeymoon reaction! Omg

this album is definitely a grower. an interesting thing about this album many people have noticed is that the first half represents lust and the second represents life. thats probably why you feel a sudden shift at the halfway point

I knew you gonna like groupie love, this song feels like a hug for me and i have goosebumps everytime ❤️

Lust For Life has been such an on and off album, there was a period I didn’t like it. then there was a period I was like this actually so good, and recently been indifferent. But lately with the 7th anniversary passing I fell right back in love and can’t believe I was so back forth with it cause it’s just amazing

Omg I was really looking forward to this reaction!!

pls i need the nfr reaction ASAPPPPPPP i cant wait for it and everything that comes after it NFR changed Lanas sound completely

Actually album is really divided into two parts; lust and life. Lust being the songs till Coachella Woodstock in my mind. They tell the story of her lust since honeymoon, also love was a thank you gift for her fans and White Mustang is about G-Eazy and the story is basically about G-Eazy being with Lana and Halsey at the same time; also white mustang actually means Why am I staying? cause of the way she says it. And for the second part; like I said itself about life and politics in 2016-2017 also the fear of war and things never changing. Hope you see this comment, I love your videos and I am so excited for the NFR reaction.

literally diving into lana’s discography with you. I wait for every single video to dive into it cuz your thoughts about her songs are so accurate, simply love it

I'm glad you took the time to let the music take over with Cherry and then started the discussion, instead of pausing throughout the song. I think the next album coming up, NFR, is one you have to take the time to listen and then think about it because the melodies and the entire production are top notch, but the lyrics are otherworldly. I hope you'd take the time to grasp what it sounds like and then weigh in on the poetry. Can't wait for the next video. It's the one I'm waiting for the most. Your life will change. Thank you for reading into her lyrics and breaking them apart, it's the most I enjoy of your videos!

yes groupie love is so sweet 🥺❤️ this album was made for her fans (she even called us "her kids" in the trailer of the album) so i feel like this song may be also about our relationship with her. "love" is also about us, we're the kids who are young and in love.

The fact that she released NFR after makes this album even deeper IMO

Lust for Life is perfect from the beginning of the song to the end…..

I really love how you analyse the songs and the album in general. Thank you so much for this series I really enjoy your videos ♥

Yeah, the album does have 2 distinct parts to it. The first half from Love to Groupie Love which is more popish and oriented towards love problems. And Coachella marks the transition into the second half, which is more folky and more political and personal.

I love to refer to this album as a "transitional" album. It was two sides of lana that she tried to work with and didn't quite hit the mark but she showed us where she wanted to go next with "Change" cause she said that song was the direction she wanted to go towards in the next album. I wish she could revisit making an album full of hip hop beats like this but she shines strongest in songwriting nowadays, and the following albums show that.

This album confused me a lil at first cuz there was so many different topics she sang (not a bad thing just so different) also having so many features (she never had before) It’s such a different album. But still soo many good ones on here forsure! ❤ My favs - Cherry, Groupie Love, Coachella, Tomorrow Never Came, Heroin, Get Free

OMGG yess finally, i have been waiting a long time for thiss!!

Im soo excited for the NFR reaction, one of my favorites

Cant wait to the NFR reaction !! your ears will be blessed

I always thought of Born to Die, Ultraviolence, and Honeymoon as a trilogy. Lust for Life is the end of an era in a way, or a transitional album. In the first half it feels very reminiscent of her older style, where she’s still heavily playing into her Lana Del Rey persona - singing about failed love, and drugs, and life in the fast lane. The second half is more about the woman underneath Lana Del Rey - who was there before and after her - and the woman that sort of “takes control” of her discography from here on out. Evinced by her own personal thoughts and vindications on society in the latter half, which introduces the real person that we start to see in all of the next albums. Not that Lana Del Rey wasn’t her, but more or less that Lana Del Rey was a caricature of herself, and in Lust for Life she’s broken this wall. She dedicates Love to her fans, and addresses the real world numerous times, destroying the facade that it’s all a song. Especially in Coachella, where it feels like the line about children is Lana recognizing all of the teenagers, and young people who have leaned into the ideals portrayed in her music, and how she understands that she’s not a role model, and doesn’t wanna be. It reminds me of how The Weeknd plays a character loosely based off of himself and his own experiences, especially earlier on in his discography. After Lust for Life, she’s not the over glamorized, personification of herself anymore. She’s Elizabeth Grant, which super ties into Get Free a little bit. It’s a send off of sorts. (Although I think that Get Free has multiple meanings, this has always felt like one to me.)

I love all Lana’s albums, and I am excited to watch you progress through them! I think my favorites are Blue Banisters and Ocean Boulevard so we’ve got a bit longer until you react to those but I’m so excited!

I just want to thank you for everything you doing, cause i never seen channel like yours on Lana and her lyrics in songs❤ my first song i ever heard from Elizabeth was high by the beach, never know what she singing in 2015 in radio but her voice was haunted me.. in that year she started to be my favorite singer and i lisened all her albums, available at that time. Everytime i travel somewhere in car on sunset should be her song. So happy to see Lana on your channel, but anyway do what YOU like to do ❤ any reaction is the best if it has feeling. And your reaction is the best)

Cherry was a great song to claim. It's my third favorite on the album. My favorite being Heroin followed by White Mustang.

First of all I love love love the new background setting, it’s cuuuuuute. ❤

I totally get ya with the "listening to music as an escape", because it's so easy for songs to take me to certain places with how they paint pictures, and when it gets too real, like it's a lot harder to want to listen to those songs more often. I could appreciate them still, and some I would still consider as favorites though I hardly listen to them. Anywho, always love your music reactions (esp Lana, cuz I found ya through that!) and I look forward to the next :DDD Much love!!

NEXT IS NFR YALL OMG OMG OMG, THE BEST ALBUM EVER AH

im soooo excited for the NFR reaction omg you’re gonna love it

I have been waiting months for this!!! ❤

Million Dollar man is my favorite Lana song too! so cool to see someone love that song as well. been binge watching your lana videos, its super cool to see your reactions to them. and I love to see that you love Tomorrow never came because I see a lot of people not really liking that song. I am sad to see you dont like Heroin or God Bless America but thats the fun of watching these is seeing peoples reactions. Please keep doing these Lana reaction vids!

In white mustang I think she’s actually saying “why am I staying”

NFR is really different 🤍 I want to see your reaction to Lana's latest album soon

claiming cherry as ur track is so iconic its one of my favorite songs she's ever made "why? cause I love you sooo muchhh"

OMG I just found your channel today, saw the video about Ultraviolence and Honeymoon and now you release the video for Lust For Life? I love your reaction's

13 Beaches, Cherry, Groupie Love, Coachella, Woodstock in my Mind, When The World Was At War, We Kept Dancing, Beautiful People Beautiful Problems, Heroin, Change and Get Free are the songs I play when I listen to this album, loved them all first listen, and still do to this day, underrated album imo.

last song on lust for life ends on the sound of ocean waves/beach it kind of flows into the vibe of nfr

Hello, I'm eagerly waiting for your new video about NFR! I don't even speak English haha but I'm here because of you

The hyphen between Coachella and Woodstock was like a wormhole, which brought us from 2017 back to 1969, you can tell by the track list before and after this song. It's like an interlude that links the album. The first half of the album was really pop and hip-pop influenced, like the trap beat and the feature of the Weeknd and ASAP Rocky, while the second half was more country vibe, like the guitar and piano in production, and Leonon and Stevie Nicks feature.

This my stan album. She announced the cover art on my 20th birthday (the best day ever). As someone who has been her fan since the beginning, this album kind of sums up everything. This is her best album for me, all the production, THE AESTHETIC (pls check out all MVs) and melodies are perfect!

Thank you for being true and honest through this experience.

I like how honest you are when you dont like a song (but is also open to it) I think this makes it more exciting when you actually like a song :3

yesss she was watching her friend's husband performing in coachella, and that would be Father John Misty!! he's also great friends with her, he's the man on Freak music video and they have 2 collabs songs later on. Coachella is so well written it amazes me. songwriter of the century.

Norman it’s coming!! fav album

loved your reaction sm!! & so excited for the NFR one as well. and girl if you want angry lana just wait till u get to ‘dealer’ on blue banisters. can’t waitt❤

omg yay i’m so exited to watch this

I liked Lust for Life very much at the time of the release because it brought back to me the sound from Born to Die, which I liked so much. At the time I was disappointed with NFR and COTCC because I was missing that old sound. I had to make a conscious decision, saying like "okay, Lana's not gonna do that anymore, let's hear what she has to say now" and since that moment, I've really appreciated her "new sound". Which, by the way, seems to impress music critics as well, as her last four albums all have 80+ metacritic score, which is impressive. I wonder what your impressions will be on NFR.

making us wait over a month for NFR is criminal 😭😭

NORMAN IS ONE OF THE BEST ALBUMS EVER

My second fav from Lana 😍😍

your reaction to cherry made me cry because this is exactly how i was when i first heard it

This album is a love letter to her audience. Cherry is truly one of the MOST iconic tracks of hers. You should see the little choreo she has for it live.

lust for life is definitely my favourite album cover art, i love seeing her smile, anyway i love this album and i feel like get free is about getting free from the industry like it talks about the rainbows and how you get lured in but theres no real security there. really great cant wait for you to hear 'dealer' too for angry lana

Wow it's early, finally ❤

waiting a month for thissss 🎉

the day I saw lana singing get free my whole life changed

Omgg A Summer Bummer Loverr 😭😭 SUMMER BUMMER LOVERS ARE SO RARE WHEN IT COMES TO THIS ALBUM...

Guys Norman Fucking Rockwell is next!

My top 3 from this album are Get Free, Cherry, and Heroin. NFR is in my top 3 along with Ocean Blvd and Ultraviolence. I cannot wait for your reaction to NFR and Ocean Blvd!!

I’m Iranian and if u heard about the news and #MahsaAmini u know that we’ve been trying to make a revolution since last year so the song “When the world was at war we kept dancing“ really gave me hope. I appreciate Lana for that🤍

Oh no you have to give those songs in red a chance. Change is one of her best. It grows on you. And heroin. Very deep song
