*VIDEO SPOILERS* so if you care about that, read after you watch the video! Okay, I’m still not even happy with the “update” that a filmed re: this album yesterday. I’ve continued to listen to the album and it’s growing more and more with every listen. I’m starting to differentiate the songs a bit more and my appreciation for the production has even increased. I think the struggle with this album comes from how complex it really is. Trying to digest it after one, two, three listens is nearly impossible. It’s so heavy, so dark, so deep, making it difficult to grasp. But again, as I continue to listen, the more I grow to love it. I believe as a full record, I am still going to say I prefer Born to Die but I could see that changing any day in the near future. Anyway, I hope you enjoyed the video and I’m very much looking forward to Honeymoon. - caitlin 🌿

I'm literally so jealous of people experiencing lana for the first time.

‘She sings a lot about money’ Me: MONEY IS THE REASON WE EXIST, EVERYBODY KNOWS IT IS A FACT KISS KISS

“she’s her own genre” CAITLIN YOU GET IT

when she paused before the west coast chorus ☠️ girllllll that is an illegal move!

*Brooklyn Baby starts playing* Caitlin: this sounds less depressing Lana: hold my cigarette

Fun fact: pretty when you cry was freestyled

Old Money is definitely the ultimate breakdown song.

Brooklyn Baby was actually supposed to be a collab with Lou Reed (she mentions him in the chorus) but unfortunately he passed away in the morning they were supposed to meet to discuss the song.

she ain't ready for "the blackest day" of HONEYMOON

y'alllll i just misspokeeeeee. obvi we doing honeymoon next!

UV is an experience. By the time you’ve got used to it you will either become a drug addict or a smoker or an alcoholic or hurt to death or you can become mature and wise and will learn from your experience. Either way you’ll always love UV.

Lana stans have a special bound with ultraviolence. You have a lot of pressure and expectation because of the comments. It is not for mainstream music listeners. It is a very dark alternative album so your reaction is normal.

2:04 Cruel World 4:37 Ultraviolence 6:14 Shades of Cool 7:56 Brooklyn Baby (one of my fav) 9:56 West Coast 11:45 Sad Girl 13:25 Pretty When You Cry 15:26 Money Power Glory 17:15 F*cked My Way Up To The Top 18:30 Old Money 20:16 The Other Woman 22:02 Black Beauty 23:28 Guns and Roses 24:27 Florida Kilos -- DELUXE TRACKS 26:22 Is This Happiness 27:48 Flipside -- 30:31 Album Ranking 31:10 Update -- Hope this helps! :)

Money Power Glory and Fucked My Way Up to the Top are both sarcastic. She’s taking critic’s perceptions of her and basically making a dark joke about it, like “oh yeah, I’m totally here to just ruin everything, course I am. That’s what I’m about.” She gets crucified all the time by people who don’t understand her music.

when she finds out terrence loves you is about david bowie's stepbrother it's over for her

Lana's voice literally sounds like she has lived for a thousand years...

FIRST

Ultraviolence is just so dark, and difficult to grasp at first, but it ages like a fine wine 🍷. This album is so raw, dark, and twisted, and also is not very listening friendly, but is also, i think, her most personal album. this is easily a fan favorite album compared to general audience perspective, but nonetheless every Lana album is a masterpiece, so yeah, can't wait for Honeymoon!

the fact that this album was recorded in one take... her power

Yayo is a slang term for Cocaine so when she sings "Yayo" and you know the reference it's kinda cheeky. Florida Kilos is basically about her being in love with a drug dealer and them running a business together.

i'm just glad that you included flipside. such an underrated gem.

Fun fact: Pretty When You Cry was improvised and the whole album was recorded in one take.

BROOKLIN BABY FUN FACT: (not that fun actually) the male voice you listen in the end off the song it’s from Lana’s ex boyfriend Barrie O’Neill but this song was meant to be featured Lou Reed. Lana traveled to New York to meet him and record but on the same day he died.

This album changed my life. Old Money makes me cry EVERY time. Makes me think of my mom. I love her with all my heart but it took awhile for this album to hit me. Her music does that. It might not be right away... but if you listen to this at a certain time or moment... and it will haunt you in the best way

I’m going to cry when you finally get to NFR. It deservedddddds that Grammy

I get goosebumps literally the entire time when someone reacts to Lana's music especially Ultraviolence, with that little tear in my eyes & everything, lol ... Ik some of y'all can relate.

You: listen cruel world by lana Me: welcome to the psychodelic world of lana del rey💫 Fact 1: in ultraviolence lana is talking like she was in the skin of the girlfriend of Jim Morrrison (the doors). Fact 2: brookling baby its in my opinion one of her best songs, is her STATEMENT as an artist afert all the hate she recived, all the critic about her, because many critics call her "FAKE" She sings: "They say im to young to love you" - all the critics that cames out after she keeping writing songs about older mans, like she wasent free to write about whatever she wants. "They say i dont understand the freedom land of the 17s" How media criticized her for singing about these era, her influences about this decade, like she wasent free of writing about this decade and understand it just because she wasent born in it or if that turns her into a fake artist, just because she is singing about the past and she really born in other decade. "I'm talking about my generation Talking about that newer nation And if you don't like it You can beat it Beat it, baby You never liked the way I said it If you don't get it, then forget it So I don't have to fucking explain it" - she literally says, im talking about real things, I'm not glamorizing the abuse about anything, many womans have this problems, if you dont like it STOP TO LISTEN MY SONGS ITS NOT FOR YOU, LET ME BE. You dont like the perspective from the place i write my songs, you just dont listened it OK?

Born to die was the best opener for her, paradise was a cool touch, the vibes and cinema-like introduction to Lana was also good. I havent watch this yet but I know she is not going to like the sound as much, but will apreciate the lyrics and vocals. Honeymoon is going to be her favorite, but will have mixed feelings at first. She'll like lust for life at the first listen but not enough to be her favorite. She will think NFR is her favorite till she gives honeymoon a few listens. Idk why I just wrote that but knowing her ik guessing it will kinda go like this

Real ones know that Ultraviolence and Honeymoon are Lana's best work.

„Flipside“ is absolutely outstanding, one of my favorite tracks in her entire discography. No idea why it was relegated to being Japanese bonus track cause it actually works perfectly well in the context of the album and would have made a fantastic closer.

well i never liked lana’s albums after one listen, but with more listens it grows on me much more, so born to die was my fav too, but it definitely changed

For those that think this album exploits domestic, physical and mental abuse you just don't understand and likely never have never been abused by a partner. As a survivor of physical abuse, manipulative mental and emotional torture from my ex husband, this album saved me. It showed me I wasn't alone, I wasn't crazy, and I am NOT damaged goods. Yes, yes! There are others like me, and this girl (Lana) is singing my song! It is like you are caught in a sort of limbo, listening to her and watching her and feeling that pain all over again, is MY medicine!! You know how crazy that sounds?? Yeah. I do too. But it's real. It's here. And I'm feeling it all over again. And the more I feel it, the more I HEAL. Thank you Lana for HEALING me and helping me to step into my own power. There's so much more........

Additional information for this album: "cruel world" is a conversation between Lana and her older self lizzy grant. "Money, power, glory" is a "fuck you" to her haters and the media because that is what they were saying about her so she took it, flipped it and made a song out of it. "Fucked my way to the top" is a diss track aimed at an artist who said that about her, again she took it and sarcastically made a song out of it. "old money" is lana Reminiscing about her childhood. "the other woman" is a Nina Simone cover. "pretty when I cry" was freestyled. And finally this whole album was recorded in one sitting. (Saw this comment thought it was helpful for first time Lana listeners)

*the start of Brooklyn Baby Caitlin: this doesnt sound so depressing me: honey you got a big storm coming!

In my opinion honeymoon, lfl and nfr had the best lyrics, and i agree uv is not too much lyrically wise but i myself love the rock vibe in ultraviolence so thats why uv is my favorite album of hers

Imagine being in high school listening to these songs late on a school night... i was so dramatic!

why’s no one talking about how pretty she is

wait, Honeymoon comes first before Lust For Life....

cant wait for honeymoon!!

PLEEEEAAAASEEE react to MARINA’s discography next; she was formerly known as Marina and the Diamonds (not a band, just her) but she changed her name to MARINA on all streaming platforms. i think you’d fall in love with her!

I was probably 14 when this album was released. I was expecting something like Born to Die or Paradise, but UV hit completly different. I didn’t even like it after few listening. Years passing by and now is my favourite. Then I was a child and I didn’t understand a lot od things she was singing about. Growing up I experienced it and at some point it hit me so hard. So f**king hard and I am so gratefull for this album. So yeah, it take some listening sesion and time to really appreciate this album. I can’t wait for Honeymoon reaction. I think you will like it ❤️

I think the idea of "but you haven't seen my man" is that if you saw him you would fall in love with him too and it would make you do things you never thought you would

honey, you have the same reaction as we all did when she dropped UV. No one liked it until a few years later, we all realized that it was a masterpiece... give it time and you'll appreciate more

React to *Aurora's* album *"All My Demons Greeting Me As A Friend"* It's alternative like *Lana, Lorde, Conan Grey and Billie Eilish,* and single from this album called *"Runaway"* inspired *Billie Eilish* to make music and record *"Ocean Eyes"* when she was 12-13 Aurora is crazy talented and literal lyrical genius and has unique voice and sound

ULTRAVIOLENCE by Lana Del Rey 2:05 Cruel World 4:40 Ultraviolence 6:15 Shades of Cool 7:55 Brooklyn Baby 9:55 West Coast 11:45 Sad Girl 13:25 Pretty When You Cry 15:25 Money Power Glory 17:15 Fucked My Way Up To The Top 18:30 Old Money 20:15 The Other Woman DELUXE TRACKS: 22:00 Black Beauty 23:30 Guns and Roses 24:25 Florida Kilos VINYL TRACKS: 26:20 Is This Happiness 27:50 Flipside

You should listen to Honeymoon first. This is the order of the albums: Born To Die Paradise (Ep) Ultraviolence Honeymoon Lust For Life Norman F. Rockwell

i have never cried about a boy to a album or a song before but sis in 2017 when my ex broke up with me for the first time (one of many 😅) i turned on ultraviolence and sobbed 😅😭 then west coast comes on & i’m dancing while crying then sad girl comes on and i’m crying then Money Power Glory comes & Fucked my way up to the top comes on and i’m in that bad bitch mentality then old money comes on and BAM 😭😤 overall this album is iconic and deep and dark and hauntingly beautiful and it’s the best to listen to during fall but especially during winter idk why but it just gives me winter vibes maybe because winter is dark cold and creepy ( Snowy roads at nights with the streetlights on is such a horror movie vibe idk why it just is) and also beautiful it matches the album also my depression is the WORST during winter 😅

I was fixing to say that "Honeymoon" is next. It's more unified in sound than UV is and it's completely different than both BTD/Paradise and UV. It's the album that inspired me to become a writer and it's always going to have a special place in my heart.

i clicked really fast, actually

1 - cruel world (2:06) 2 - ultraviolence (4:38) 3 - shades of cool (6:16) 4 - Brooklyn baby (7:56) 5 - west coast (9:58) 6 - sad girl (11:46) 7 - pretty when you cry (13:25) 8 - money power glory (15:27) 9 - fucked my way up to the top (17:16) 10 - old money (18:31) 11 - the other woman (20:17) 12 - black beauty (22:02) 13 - guns and roses (23:40) 14 - florida kilos (24:48) 15 - is this happiness (26:23) 16 - flipside (27:50) ♡

The title track "Ultraviolence" has a special meaning for me Especially that verse "I love you the first time, I love you the last time, cause I'm your jazz singer, and you're my cult leader, I love you forever, I love you forever" That was for my Natalie She loved Lana Del Rey She was my heart God rest her beautiful soul 🥺❤

This album is depression. It just feels like there's a huge dark cloud following you around. And I'm here for it.

I love watching people discover the gloomy yet glamorous world of Lana Del Rey.

I loved your reaction because it's similar to mine when I first heard it. Ultraviolence is such an amazing record. I'm excited to see your reaction on Honeymoon because it's my favorite album of all time. Now, I don't want you to have any expectations to it. Just enjoy your time listening to it, and I'd suggest that you listen to it by morning or afternoon since it's like a daytime cinematic album.

I'm in love with Ultraviolence, West Coast, Pretty When You Cry, and Florida Kilos are some of my favorites. ♡♡♡

"Being a mistress on the side might not be something you would do but you havent seen my man" implies you would want to if you knew him as far as i gather, i think its a song about being manipulated but in love

Min 14:57 The title song "pretty when you cry" is her boyfriend telling her that. Is about her boy whos control her, she is in a abusive relationship, her boyfriend manipulates her psychologically so he tells her something like (its an interpretation of the context): Im doing what i want with you, you have to do what i want, and if make you cry, babe, dosent worry, is not bad, because you are pretty when you cry, soo i will do what I want no matter if it hurts you and I make you cry - manipulation. In a relationship where she is being MANIPULATED she BELIEVES what he is saying y she acceps all the shit from him soo for that reason she sings en el chorus" because im pretty when i cry", is the manipulated Lana whos sings this part.

I was depressed when I heard ultravoilence, it didn't cure my depression but made me soooo much comfortable with itttt

I just can’t wait for your reaction to NFR!

Ultraviolence is an album that’s gonna become one of your favorites the more you listen! Because wow! Born To Die is an album I feel like people fall in love with right away and get mesmerized not expecting Lana to sound that way.But overall I don’t think both albums can be comparable in sound since they are so different it’s just depends on people’s taste. I think once you hear all of Lana’s work your mind will change on your top albums. I personally always go up and down on what albums I like more cause each one hits different at different times! But again lyrics, vocals, sound and storytelling was all there and so heartbreakingly beautiful! Lana’s music is something else entirely!! It’s an experience of its own!!!

The next one is Honeymoon and not Lost For Life! Don’t miss Honeymoon because is one of my favourites 🖤

This was an amazing reaction. The fact you included is this happiness and flip side makes this perfect. The amount of speechlessness is so understandable. I still can’t find the words to describe Ultraviolence. The reminded me why it’s my favorite album🖤

LET ME JUST SAY this album means so much to me because of personal experiences with trauma. your reaction to the title track made me cry with you because even though you didn't say much, the way you reacted to it was with so much empathy and respect and i just wish i could give you a hug rn

9:05 that shot of you is so beautiful. Exactly how I envision myself and other people to be like while listening to Lana

Ultraviolence really grows on you. I first listened to it when I was a freshman in high school. I hated most of it except for a few songs (Brooklyn Baby, Shades of Cool, Pretty When You Cry). To me, those songs resonated with her old albums the most. I felt like I lost the “old Lana” in Ultraviolence and was extremely disappointed; to me her music style changed a lot and all the songs sounded the same. As time went on I started listening to it more often, and I really don’t know what it is about Lana’s music, but I feel like you just need to get used to it because her vocals and her instrumentals are so unique and unlike anything you’ve ever listened to before. Flash forward a few years, my favorite album is now Ultraviolence. There’s just something about it. It’s so dark and seductive, yet the feelings in it are so raw and unfiltered. It really brings out all of these feelings of grief, sadness, and nostalgia you never even knew you had. Each song in Ultraviolence is like a sad story, with the moral being that no matter how much you love someone, you are bound to get hurt. The price of love is pain.

here we go..... i don't think this is my favorite album but my favorite Lana song of all time is here and it's "Old Money".

lana has always been my favorite artist of all time but watching you react to her makes me love her music even more for some reason. really never thought i could love it more than i did 💀 can’t wait for the next albums!

Omg it‘s finally here: You reacting to my fav Lana album eek K bye gonna watch this now I‘m sooo excited !!

please react to AURORA’s “All My Demons Greeting Me As A Friend” !!!

I feel like Lana just grows on people over time in general. This one is my personal favorite but the feelings did definitely grow ever since high school. Hope you'll enjoy the rest! Can't wait to watch 🖤

Black Beauty it's about when you're in love with someone who has depression. She paint all in black, but she is not depressed. That's why she sings "Life is beautiful, but you don't have a clue".

Ultraviolence is such a masterpiece even in songs like Brooklyn baby, cruel world, and like in West Coast when she says *I’m in love, I’m in love* This album is just so dark and powerful it’s like they’re happy lyrics but it almost feels like she’s trying her best to feel happy. She’s singing it in a way where she’s trying to make herself believe it because happiness isn’t really there. She’s singing happy lyrics but all you feel is pain. 10/10 album honestly.

I’ve been here EVERY day since Paradise for you to react to Ultraviolence. I have no words to describe the feeling of listening to Lana but when I watch you listen I know you know the exact feeling. Can’t wait for the new album 😫😫

Gurl been waiting for this vídeo all week, love the reaction, love uuuuuu

I'm so happy to watch you reacting on Lana's music! Can't wait for your reaction on Honeymoon. This is one of her best albums and I have a feeling you're gonna enjoy it a lot.

“She’s her own genre” OHMYGOD soooo true

When I first listened to Ultraviolence I was not a fan. I was so used to the more cinematic and upbeat sound on Born to Die that Ultraviolence was such a big contrast and I didn’t really enjoy it. But since then it has become my absolute favorite Lana album . It takes a few listens in different scenarios but it went from being one of my least favorite albums of hers to my favorite album of all time. But as someone who didn’t like the album at first, I can totally understand someone not really feeling it as much as say Born to Die especially on their first few listens. It’s really dark lol

This video transcended me back several years to my first time listening to this album. It truly is a tragically beautiful piece of art; an emotional journey that leaves the audience speechless. Your reaction does this album justice, well done love :)

Yay!!! I love you and your videos so much Caitlin!!! I clicked so fast even though I'm in online school right now! 💗💗💗

your reaction so sincere that it made me goosebumps all the time

Can't wait for your Honeymoon reaction!

I’VE BEEN WAITING FOR YOUR REACTION TO THIS ALBUM GURLLL.

Your channel is amazing you deserve so much more subscribers 🥺❤️

Oh damn I literally never knew The Other Woman was a cover! It fits in so well with the other songs on the album sonically and lyrically.

Lana came out with BTD to make her name in the industry, but then they claimed her to be not original and she slammed Ultraviolence on their face Also when I was in an abusive relationship I used to listen to this album a lot, it gave me lots of comfort since when you're under abuse you can't really tell it's bad for you so, Lana hugged me for 3 years

This album mean so much for me it's my favourite album of all time, glad u give it a try!! Also Flipside ugh this song forever my favourite 🖤💫

about to watch this, been waiting the WHOLE DAY OMG

When lana hits those notes in the chrous of shades of cool and that guitar solo at the end I WANT TO DIE TO THAT IDC LET THAT BE MY DYING SONG ❤️✨❤️✨❤️✨
