    Shakespeare could never. This album had me sobbing, screaming, throwing up blood, rocking back and forth, sliding down the walls and pulling my hair out. She didn't eat it, she DEVOURED this album!!!

Armonioso, honesto y sencillo serían las palabras para describir a NFR!, una producción que se a convertido en un clásico instantáneo en la música alternativa/pop de los últimos veinte años, una obra maestra por donde sea vista.

This album is definitely the most mature in Lana Del Rey discography, the first three tracks have already captivated you in a unique way, Venice **** is her best song ever, and midway through the last tracks it sounds cohesive and clean, and there's no way to end this album other than a piano and Lana Del Rey voice. is more mature than ever.… Expand

    Best album of the decade by the best song-writer of the decade. Just like Born to Die, this one also changed the entire industry. What an impactful person she is!

Since it came out, I’ve listened to many other artists and albums, and NFR! continues to stay my number one. This album is pure art; pure poetry. When I first listened to it shortly after it came out in August of 2019, I did not expect that I would listen to it on repeat for quite literally over a year and still think about it constantly when I became tired of it simply because of sublime overexposure. Every song in this album is so gorgeously crafted and truly Lana at her peak of storytelling and her voice. The opening line “Godd*mn man child, you f-ed me so good that I almost said ‘I love you’” will literally live in my memory forever. It’s iconic. This album is such a cohesive & melancholic, yet in spots, hopeful piece of work. My standout tracks are literally all of them. I am not joking. Not a single one is bad. If I had to choose I’d say “Mariners…” “Venice B*tch” “Cinnamon Girl” “California” “Happiness is a Butterfly” and “Hope is a dangerous thing…” are my favorites. I’m just so in love with the way Lana’s mind works and that we get to listen to her stunning poetry in the form of songs. The lyrics of these songs deeply affected me for months and months as I listened to this album, and still do to this day. They helped me feel like my emotions were valid and lines like “You took my sadness out of context/at the Mariners Apartment Complex” and “24/7 Sylvia Plath” truly resonated. This is one of those albums that you just know will go down in music history as one of the best albums ever. Even Elton John called the songs “timeless” so you know that means something. I don’t know if Lana will ever be able to surpass what she achieved with this album because it’s just THAT good. Couldn’t recommend an album more. Now go listen to it!!… Expand

    Norman **** Rockwell! is probably one of Lana Del Rey's best albums. The whole album lures you into a dreamy place with all the instrumentals and her soft voice. The album also makes you feel so many emotions at the same time. In my opinion, this should've won aoty !!

She sings exquisitely of freedom and transformation as well as the pain and loneliness of living in such a tumultuous world. Produced and co-written to perfection by Jack Antonoff, this record sees Lana take a look inwards and discover the truth behind the American culture she was once so proud of. Truly a modern day masterpiece.… Expand

    this album is the best record of the past decade and one of the best of all time. LDR’s authentic production and brilliant lyricism display her growth beautifully and in an interesting, innovative way. She is the standard for many other girls in her genre as her influence can be seen in their most recent works.

    Probably Lana’s most cohesive and balanced album. A collection of classic songs with the influence of Laurel Canyon melodies from the seventies, I can even sense Joni Mitchell on some lines. Absolutely stunning.

    Lana del rey can make me cry with all the songs, she can put me sad and in love as the same time with amazing songs like Love song and **** it I love you. I don't understand why she doesn't have a grammy, she is a great songwriter, an amazing vocalist and a great artist.

    NFR! is perfectly crafted; from ‘love song’ to ‘Mariners apartment complex’ to the 10 minute long ‘Venice B***h’. The ecstatic arrangements also introduce a new sound for Lana, that of which she completely masters.

    This album is Lana’s best work yet! With her beautiful voice and majestic lyricism Lana shows her full potential in this album. This album is cohesive all the way through and all the songs are very beautiful. This album is definitely one of the best albums that has come out in the past decade.

    It's a remarkably sharp pop record that retains her fascination with pop-culture iconography and the rosey simplicity of a post-war America where classic rock and blue jeans ruled and takes them to much deeper places. ... Think of it as an hour-long car ride peeling down the highway with classic rock blaring out of the radio and no real destination in mind other than where your impulsive nature might take you.

    A thematically rich record, heavy on mood and elegantly written in a way that positions Del Rey between Eve Babitz and Carole King. There are beguiling and evolving melodies underneath the spare piano and acoustic arrangements. [Nov 2019, p.24]
