    NFR! It’s Lana’s best album. It still is Lana, but with improved production, instrumentation, and writing. Best tracks are: the greatest, Happiness is a butterfly, love song and Doin Time.

    Lana has always been my muse when my inspiration is running out and this album also slays! The consolation and serenity it brings make whole world pause for her, and We should do nothing better but to support her. The adivice is that someone including her fans should stop rating low score purposely for Lana and all u guys should do is streaming it getting to know what is the real masterpiece.

    Norman **** Rockwell is the definition of a bland Lana Del Rey Album, same old tired vocals and melodies, some tracks like Venice **** that had a runtime over than 9 minutes were a drag i didn't understand what she was saying what so ever. the way she sings makes it so hard to understand... even Jack Antonoff couldn't save this record

    Lana's newest album not only gives what people want, but develops her style even more from where she started from her debut and Born to Die. She has made the best album of 2019.

    This album is a brilliant work of art from start to finish. It's light and whimsical at times and sad and dark at other times, but getting lost in Lana's lyrics, melodies, and voice is pure magic always.

    I really didn’t expect to love this album as much as I did; I had only heard Born to Die before and it was just ok to me.

My favorite tracks are...all of them lol, but if I had to pick three, I would say Hope is a dangerous thing..., Bartender, and (OMFG) Venice **** are the best songs. Venice **** has got to be her magnum opus for sure, with its enormous length and audacious instrumental half way through. I’ve already listened to it seven times in the past day and I’m going to go ahead and say that it will be my favorite album of the year!! Go listen now! Expand

    Sin duda alguna es su mejor álbum. Del Rey ha sabido llevar su sentir a través de cada álbum y cada canción y cómo ha ido evolucionando junto a sus líricas y ritmos, sin perder su esencia. Es algo que pocos logran llevar a cabo y ella no sólo lo ha hecho, si no ha rediseñado la forma de hacerlo.

    Lana really outdid herself with this one. Every song took you out of this world. Though reminiscent of a few past eras, she created a whole new sound for this record and the results were beautiful. I also love how clear and raw her vocals are on most if not all of the songs.

The meticulous attention to detail, the high poetic level of the text, the maturity of the album can only bring NFR to be compared to the previous LDR masterpieces "Honeymoon" and "Ultraviolence". Lana collects her past to take a step forward, not trying to copy any previous era. From the guitar that accompanies the growing choirs of "F**k It I Love You", which recalls the finale of "West Coast", the chorus of "Love Song" which quotes "Cruel World" ("With my party dress I'm a **** mess "), the line of "The Next Best American Record" that says "Topanga is hot tonight" (listen to "Heroin", one of the best songs of "Lust For Life"), a reminder to Carmen ("Top Shelf- Liquor"), to the orchestral arrangements of "California" and "Cinnamon Girl" reminiscent of Honeymoon, Lana draws inspiration from all her past projects, but originates something completely new. Antonoff's work is excellent, and respects Lana's willingness to get completely naked in front of her fans, in a moving operation that reaches her climaxes in "Venice B**h "Hope Is A Dangerous Thing For A Woman Like Me To Have - But I Have It" and **** It I Love You". The touch of the historic collaborator Rick Nowels, which only confirms his talent, helps to create unique pieces like "Bartender" and "Happiness Is A Butterfly". Lana shows off exceptional vocals that find the emotional climax in the outro of "Norman **** Rockwell". Personally I find it difficult to choose the best track, also because there is not a single bad or not memorable song in the album. I think that the most particular is "Bartender". Beautiful. Expand

    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]
