    Well, I have been a fan since 2011. Honestly, I can safetly say that Honeymoon is her best album so far. It's so amazing how Lana manages to improve her art with each and every releases.

    In Honeymoon, she really take the best part of Born To Die, Ultraviolence and refine it. It's a intoxicatingly beautiful listen.

    The third incredible album by a true artist and one who should be an icon for our times. Who else is writing music like Lana Del Rey and creating such soundscapes. This is a woman who doesn't do albums that are anything less than utterly absorbing. Each song is like a little window into a world of excess, depravity and personal excess.

    Lana Del Rey is a unique enigma. Treasure her.

    This is her most complete and beautiful work, with anthems like 'Salvatore' and 'The Blackest day', beside one of her most romantic song 'Religion', this album is a must have, and an classic already.

    Let me first start by saying that Lana is my favourite artist so, i was a little worried that this album will underwhelm me. I was very wrong, the album was great, it was coherent and every song worked on its own and as a part of the whole album. My favourites are Terrence Loves You, High By The Beach, Honeymoon, Salvatore and The Blackest Day. Well, actually every song is amazing.

    It was yet another different album, with her soothing voice. However, there are so many different elements to her new album unlike BTD or Ultra which only centered around a kind of genre. Honeymoon is by far Lana's best album.

    Rainha indie esta de volta lançando o novo testamento indie com toques de barrocos e elementos urbans conceituais, só resta se render ao poder de jesus do alternativo para ser arrebatado, mas um samba na debylorde

    As beautiful and dreamy as only true Lana Del Rey fans love. She sweep you of your feet with her tales of lost love and despair. Her song have a cinematic en melancholic quality which always takes your breath away and never fails to disappoint. I will love this till the end of time............

    Maduro e pesado. Uma lua de mel que na verdade não é muito doce.
    Eu não entendi muito o porquê do anuncio que ela deu sobre o álbum ter uma pegada mais ''hip-hop'' assim como o born to die, pois não encontrei essa influência muito presente.

    Best Albums of 2015:
    1) To Pimp A Butterfly
    2) Vulnicura
    3) Honeymoon
    4) Emotion
    5) M3LL133X

    Honeymoon is Del Rey's best album because she brings her already amazing vocals to new heights, and the instrumentals are also more cohesive in this record than her past albums.

    Lana sounded so great. That's awesome. She made a more indie pop album, with Born To Die, where the strangeness and secrets of his morbid lyrics flashed and took her to world fame. Lana remained epic in his EP Paradise, where she brought clearer letters, a sound even sportier or perhaps less strange. One of the most acclaimed albums of last year, and unjustly ignored by the Grammy Awards,Lana sounded so great. That's awesome. She made a more indie pop album, with Born To Die, where the strangeness and secrets of his morbid lyrics flashed and took her to world fame. Lana remained epic in his EP Paradise, where she brought clearer letters, a sound even sportier or perhaps less strange. One of the most acclaimed albums of last year, and unjustly ignored by the Grammy Awards, Ultraviolence, so it was his strong point. The lyrical content of this album is as if it had been written by one of the greatest poets of all time, is something incredible and incomparable. Until then, it was even questionable whether Del Rey could do something at the level of Ultraviolence, and perhaps, yes, as regards the lyrical content.

    But this album sounds very current, even retro, because the angelic voice and the delicacy as Lana sings the tracks, it's just amazing. Opening the album, Honeymoon, is one of the most worked-letter drive, and one of the most difficult to digest. Lana put it there to show their musical culture and to show the world who is not concerned with making an album for radios and night ballads. One of the highlights of this disc is the sophisticated vocal and well-crafted by the singer. It's like you're in the clouds, surrounded by angels who were there singing for you!In my opinion, the best tracks are Honeymoon, The Blackest Day, Freak, Terrence Loves You and Salvatore. For singles, Lana hit choosing High By The Beach and Music To Watch Boys To the future, the next could be Freak, The Blackest Day and Art Deco. Lana has a weight record, should know how to work with it to get good results either in sales or recognition.

    It's a great record yes, and I hope the Grammy not the boycott as he did Ultraviolence, which deserved much your nomination. We'll see ....    … Expand

    Honeymoon is a perfect blend of the two previous albums of Lana and this makes him a wonderful album, the melodies are really good and the presence of trap beat on songs like "Freak" and "High by the Beach" work in infectious and sensual way. There are other gems on the album as "The Blackest Day", "24", "Religion" and "Swan Song", but I can say that the album is divine in all.

    Honeymoon is definitely one of the most anticipated albums in 2015. Too early to say it is Lana's best work, but it is surely her most beautiful record she's ever made. Highly recommend Terrence Loves You, Art Deco, Religion & The Blackest Day. This album is a masterpiece!

    EU SÓ POSSO DIZER QUE É PERFEITO, E QUE SE A BANCADA COMPRADA DO GRAMMY NÃO NOMEAR ESSE DISCO, EU FICAREI MUITO PUTA!

    Lana sem dúvidas fez mais uma obra prima, e prova que é muito mais que uma simples cantorazinha que se preocupa com charts, ou com o que vão falar do seu trabalho. É uma honra ver críticos atirando nos próprios pés, e revendo tudo que afirmaram de forma precipitada.

Much like "Video Games," "Honeymoon" is orchestral and cinematic, slowly rising to the song's conclusion before gently coming back down. Still, "Honeymoon" is markedly different. The crawl seems even slower and lethargic; everything is drawn out to the most extreme degree. It fits as an opener because the rest of the album reflects what this song brings to the table. Honeymoon is a sparse and empty collection of the most assured songs in Lana's discography yet. It moves slower than a glacier, clocks in at over an hour, and the compositions are often barren. Somehow, it's the best album Lana Del Rey has ever put together.… Expand

    Its an amazing album. If you dont like slow songs, stay away from this album. The fact that Lana is always criticized for making always slow music and still, launching albums filled with slow songs, means Lana del Rey is not trying to make hits, but just to make the music she loves, she is not interested on sells, but she is interested on her feelings, the lyrics, the melody.

    Start with Salvatore and 24, blackest day, Religion, and some others you will like alot. Music to watch boys slow chorus may not be for everyone, as Freak's chorus, which are similar in sound, not in melody.

    By combining all the styles of her previous work into one album, Honeymoon shows that Lana Del Rey has evolved from the melodramatic ballads of Born to Die to create her most focused and well-produced album to date. "High by the Beach" and "Freak" are Del Rey's catchiest songs yet while "Salvatore" and "Honeymoon" are more subdued tracks that contain a lot of emotion.

    Such a strong album from a strong artist and is arguably her best album sonically speaking. If you like BTD or Paradise, then this is the album for you, with more baroque pop and trap than UV. Overall, my faves are High By the Beach, Salvatore, Freak and Terrence Loves You.
