    Emotionally raw from start until end, this album shows the aspects of your life you need to heal. Lana shows she's been there, and is there with you, and can mournfully help you heal.

    AMAZING! If you don’t like it, try listening again in a quiet, reflective space. This album really makes you think about Lana’s journey as an artist and altogether is more like spoken word poetry than pop, alt, or indie music. I’m so proud of her and can’t wait for her new poetry book and future albums!

Del Rey, de fato conseguiu o que ela queria nos passar, que era seus mais íntimos sentimentos , suas letras se tornam poesias cantadas que nos fazem retornar ao passado, em uma época onde os amores venciam, sejam eles fracassados ou não, acompanhados de uma coca cola, sentados em um hotel de beira de estrada e vendo o tempo passar.
    Os instrumentos que vão de um sopro à uma imitação de guitarra, na 13º faixa, intitulada Living Legend, onde, Del Rey relata a forma como as atitudes de seu amado às levam para o céu.
    Dealer , faixa 9º é a mais extravagante e volumosa do álbum, seus gritos em canto são como um suspiro de clamor por atenção.
    Thunder , 10º faixa , é a mais tocante do álbum, com a melhor letra e melodia, a harmonização dos instrumentos com a voz da cantora é surreal.

    Two amazing albums released in the same calendar year. Some of her best unreleased songs are now public releases and work so well to fit the vibe of this album.

    Honestly, there's only 2 or 3 good songs on this album (good, not masterpieces or amazing songs, just good). I've heard all of her albums and this one is very boring, it doesn't have atmosphere or beautiful poetry or nice, dark and catchy sounds, it's very "meh". This is her worst year in music, I love her and I really hope she recovers her magic.

Some parts of the album seem so random but it fits in so perfectly. She’s spontaneous about her music and although there are a few songs where it’s her doing what she usually does, she tries something new with every single one of the songs.

    She is being herself and that makes it unique. The lyrics and the instrumental music makes it sound cinematic.

    Álbum IMPECÁVEL, Lana del Rey faz tudo mesmo, e se vc é fã de Taylor Swift e tá avaliando mal aceite os fatos mo a cantora q tem feat com a Paula Fernandes não é a maior

    Amé este álbum, se siente como una combinación de Norman F Rockwell! y Chemtrails Over the country Club, así que es como una continuación muy bien lograda. Un hermoso álbum, Lana Del Rey nunca decepciona.

    Absolutely stunning, beautiful album. Filled with lots of emotion as well as sun-kissed ballads. Definitely some of her best work

    This album really could translate the small details we are living in into music. So complicated. But simple at the same time. I guess that's the power of Lana del Rey

    Lana's most self-honest album to date. All songs are an amazing way through of what, i think, she started with Chemtrails. Maybe for some people this album is simple, even if it's not, but lana described herself as simple and wants that for her life so idk why they want her to put a new BTD or UV like she wasn't feeling really bad atm, I mean boths albums are amazing but it's a discographyLana's most self-honest album to date.

Also, she's not putting anyone but herself, like she's finally come to the point where she is who she is and it's fine with it and no one gets to change that because that's what makes her different, individualistic speaking, like in "Beautiful". I'm glad that she's is happy
    with herself or in the searching of that because that's what it makes this album her best one to date. 100/10    … Expand

    A lyrically strong album. [Jan 2022, p.82]

    A set of drifting piano ballads that allow her rich and profane lyrics to hit home. [Jan 2022, p.22]

    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.
