    Lana bonita, este álbum es muy hermoso, contempla tanto sentimiento, tanto amor y madurez. Uno de los menores sin duda alguna, por no decir el mejor, Los vocalización, la instrumentalización es tan inmaculada. Cada cosa que hace Lana sin pensarlo dos veces es considerado obra de arte. Tener una mezcla de tantas eras en un solo álbum te deja un sentimiento de satisfacción total.

    Las baladas de piano jamás habían sonado de una manera tan especial como en Blue Banisters.
    Del Rey continúa en su trayecto de evolución artística y personal, y hace su segunda parada en lo que va del año. Blue Banisters está al nivel de sus mejores trabajos, y, si me lo preguntan, es hasta ahora su mejor trabajo.

    This album is art in its purest form. I honestly don’t know how she does it time and time again. Constantly raising the bar for us all, and doing it flawlessly. I’d say I'm surprised, but she's LANA DEL REY... Lana does Del Rey, let's be honest here now.

    For me, Blue Banisters it's the most personal album for Lana. First thing that we need to look with atencion is that she use some of her old songs, like Thunder and Nectar of the gods.

    While the days of Born to Die have long since passed, Lana Del Rey is still seeking paradise, closer now than ever as she turns her search inward, seemingly recognizing that paradise is ultimately found within the best of oneself. Still, if there is indeed a physical Arcadia to be revealed, it has not emerged in its entirety on Blue Banisters. That said, its intoxicating hints are enough to keep seekers thirsty.
