    Album incrível com musicas e letras bem elaboradas. Ela explora novos ritmos e faz isso muito bem. Destaque para Love, White Mustang, Lust for Life, Tomorrow Never Came e Cherry. É Lana del Rey né? Nunca desaponta.

    Once again Lana Del Rey delivers a beautiful album, this time containing featured artists. The sound is still gorgeous, with an excellent production and the same touching voice that characterizes Del Rey's work. There are many type of songs: upbeat, romantic and heartbreaking, with a socio-political message (mainly caused by the Trump Era) and intimate. Lana Del Rey is a legend

    This is an overrated album which does better in the concepts.It is true that American need an album to call on "lust for life" in this desperated world.But it is also true that the songs in the last half record are totally not out-standing as much as the lead single"love".The lyrics are boring and full of windy slogans.

    Suele ser muy confuso, no sabes cuando pasa a la otra canción, repetitivo, aburrido y no tiene nada de nuevo. No hay smashs ni nada parecido, una pena de álbum que está en el olvido actualmente.

    I want to first admit that I did not have high hopes for this album. While I appreciated the lead single Lust for Life, I was not a fan of the lyrics (I thought they were too simplistic). It didn't have the wordplay and sophistication I expected of a Lana Del Rey song. Love, Choachella, Summer Bummer, and Groupie Love all sounded a little better and showed glimpses of the Lana Del Rey II want to first admit that I did not have high hopes for this album.

It didn't have the wordplay and sophistication I expected of a Lana Del Rey song. Love, Choachella, Summer Bummer, and Groupie Love all sounded a little better and showed glimpses of the Lana Del Rey I fell in love with nearly six years ago.
    Then today came, and this album was better than I could have expected. It's difficult to explain the emotional journey one goes through when listening to a Lana Del Rey album. I felt that each song, one after the other, was the exact song I needed after the last. From the mellow 13 Beaches, to the surprisingly profane Cherry, and eased out of that by White Mustang.
    I'm supposed to be working, but instead, I'm writing this review, because I feel so strongly about this album. Nothing compares to how Lana Del Rey explores themes of naivete, of loss, of being lost, hopelessness, of hope, of apathy, then of passion, but most of all, of love. It is evident this album is a product of the artist's love for her fans and for her music.
    I'm not expecting accolades or Grammy awards for this album (for the internal politics and hierarchies in the music industry), but without a doubt, this is the year's best album.    … Expand

    Lust for Life is a masterpiece of an album. Every song is at least pretty good; most songs are near perfect. I don't buy albums very often, but i bought this, and I'm glad i did.

    In this album Lana reinvents herself as not just an icon of depression and obsessive consumption, but as a sensitive outward looking artist that addresses her connection to the audience and her role to evolve and change.

    Lust for Life starts to feel again like the same ol' schtick Lana Del Rey has been using for years. Tragic, low energy vocals mixed with piano, a string section and occasional hip-hop inspired beats. Though for all the efforts of the featured artists, they seem out of place and used more for a marketing ploy. Overall well produced, just nothing new from Del Rey.

    It's a good album in a similar climate to the previous one but with more interesting variety. The atmosphere is lighter and the songs are catchy. Although after this album I would like something less nostalgic and less American idyll.

    The first half of the album is stronger than the second, although i don´t like the A$ap Rocky colab. My favorite Track is God bless America- and all the beautiful women in it

    The desire for life is burning and catching on every song, every beat, a little intimate but it's really something wonderful what she did here and special.

    Like I said in the beginning, LFL is the second best album because Ultraviolence still the best one. Honeymoon was good but not so memorable.    … Expand

    ls Lana Del Rey in top form, She clearly reaches news apex in her new album.

    The Song Coachella (Woodstock in my Mind) is one kind of new ground that Lana reaches, is a complex and well constructed ballad song, even more complex that her masterful "Terrence Loves You" of penultimate album "Honeymoon" back in 2015.

    Lust For Life featuring singer The Weeknd who also give the title of album is a beautiful and extraordinary ballad worthy of Grammy's and together with first track called "Love" is as it were The singer approaching to Pop Music and in a high note.

    But for those who think that Lana surrender to pop songs, could be happy, the old grounds is always present in the album songs likes "White Mustang" "In My Feelings" "Heroin" "Get Free" and so much others.    … Expand

    Lana arriscou parcerias, novas sonoridades e posições vocais no novo álbum. Lust for Life é sua melhor produção até agora, milimetricamente preparada para ser o início de uma nova era, mais autossuficiente, libertadora, visionária e esperançosa.

    Lust for Life has too many songs. Well, I'm not against albums with 14 songs or more, but if you're gonna make an album like this, you have to know exactly what you're doing. And I don't think Lana knew. The first listening I was so blind by the hype that I didn't realize how long this album actually is, but now I do.

Like, the 7 first songs blend well, the last 3 songs blend well, but the songs between 7 and 3 are ????????????. And If we pretend they're not there, the album gets messier. It's a good album with lots of flaws. BUT lyrically, it's her best album so far… Expand

    Lust for Life flows so naturally between different genres, it has you wondering how is that possible. But it's not just the beats, it's the deep songwriting in every song (especially "Love" and "Change") and the amazing collaborations in it (Sean Lennon added an unforgettable Beatles vibe to "Tomorrow Never Came"), that keep you listening to this album over and over again.

    The optimism of Lust For Life is a pleasant surprise, though the album is still painted in the same shades as Del Rey’s previous releases. At times it’s some of her best material, but it seems like a record best experienced in pieces than as a proper whole.

    While Del Rey’s voice remains firmly at the forefront, the spare arrangements encourage listeners to fill in their own emotional blanks for once.

    Throughout this accomplished, assured new record, Lana manages to repeatedly freeze time and capture those fleeting cinematic moments that make us who we are, while reminding us of who we could be.
