 Honeymoon is the fourth studio album and third major-label record by American singer-songwriter Lana Del Rey. It was released on September 18, 2015 It went to #1 in Australia and #2 in UK, US and #3 in Canada and France. The 1st single was High by the Beach, which debuted on #7 on Billboard HOT 100 :) which was corrected later to # 51  2nd and the last single was Music to watch boys to  This is the album I listen to the most of all Lana albums, though Born to Die is my favorite. Salvatore was my instant favorite, just like Old Money was on Ultraviolence and White Mustang on Lust for Life. I like the album as a whole and always listen to it like that. I am not a fan of the last song, but it passes... Your thoughts? |

I loved it more with time but it’s just soooooo sleepy. I have to be in a certain kind of mood to dream through the whole thing. You can see some improvements in her songwriting by this point though!
“Music to Watch Boys To” is still sublime and the title track is probably her most depressing song, and I mean that in the best way possible.

God I would not use word sleepy, but relaxing Yes, I mostly listen to the album in the evening, before going to bed as it relaxes me in a great way...
One of the few albums where I can say that it has the 'mood'
We both know that is not fashionably to love me
is such a great line/opener |

I agree that it's a "mood" album. The first half is certainly stronger for me than the second half - although "The Blackest Day" is definitely up there. My favorite song on the album is "Terrence Loves You", I remember she talked about it in a recent interview and how depressed she must have been when writing it, due to the lyrics, but its fragility is what makes it one of her best songs and those opening chords are haunting.
