    Lana is definitely one of the most incredible woman in the music industry. In this album she is a writer, a woman, a lover, and the instrumental is amazing, i’m in love with all songs, the production, the lyrics and everything else. This is the best american record!!!

Del Rey delivers a gaze that swivels internally and externally, that can simultaneously observe our national existential dread and her own sudden hope for a “Hallmark” love.
    On her elegant and complex fifth album, Lana Del Rey sings exquisitely of freedom and transformation and the wreckage of being alive. It establishes her as one of America’s greatest living songwriters.

    Beautiful. Just beautiful. Lana Del Rey really shined on this one. The vocals, the instrumentation and the lyrics are some of the best I’ve heard in pop music in a long time. She is truly one of a kind, and Norman **** Rockwell undoubtedly deserves Album of the Year.

    It's been a while since Lana did something like this. Lust for Life was undeniably a great record but has literally nothing to do with Norman Fu**king Rockwell! The new record has all of us dreaming and literally flying with every song, being able to listen to a great mix of piano and guitar, her best vocals and lyrics. A masterpiece.

    Sin duda alguna es su mejor álbum. Del Rey ha sabido llevar su sentir a través de cada álbum y cada canción y cómo ha ido evolucionando junto a sus líricas y ritmos, sin perder su esencia. Es algo que pocos logran llevar a cabo y ella no sólo lo ha hecho, si no ha rediseñado la forma de hacerlo.

The radio pop of "Born to Die" which captured an audience with the 60's grace of "Video games " or the dark eclectic mastery of atmosphere on the haunting "Ultraviolence ". This skill had it's foundations on the trip hop production she often favoured and with the release of "Lust for Life" it seemed her creativity was wanning. Songs felt hollow and the record felt undercooked. Gone was the previous elegance of "honeymoon" and in it's place was a collection of outtakes passed off as a finished album.

    My expectations were hampered until it happened. The 9min lush "Venice beach " dropped will little fan fare and gargantuan talent. It was a comfortable reinvention that should've been expected but was even better for it. Perfectly written in with the prose of a great novelist she delivered a love song for the times . I knew that whatever was to come would be a continuation of her three album streak, quite possibly topping it. And as "Marina Apartment Complex " followed i knew that she had captured the right muse for this one. The perfectly titled NFR felt like entering a gallery filled with an esteemed artists best work. She gives herself space to flex her skill such as the beautiful social reflection on "the greatest" or "happiness is a butterfly " which feels reminiscent of "liability ". Not a second of this long record is wasted. The touches of 70's aestheticidm or the career higlight production from Jack Antanoff are a match made in heaven. It feels like a grand statement, a literary classic that becomes required reading. It's Lana at her least obscure . The absence of the features that clogged "Lust for life" gives way for experiments with cadence (bartender) and layering (Venice b*tch).

    It's an astonishing record not out off place amongst classics such as Joni's Blue. A must hear for any music fan.

Entretanto, Cinnamon Girl e Love song, pelas suas quebras de expectativas, cobrem as mínimas falhas das faixas anteriores a essas. Não é um álbum para pessoas acostumadas com o pop, pois o mesmo se preocupa mais com as letras do que com as melodias, embora ambas sejam trabalhadas em conjunto, em seu auge com California e The greatest.

It also offers encouragement to make your voice heard in the sea of voices and speaks of a revolution happening in the dark in MARINERS APARTMENT COMPLEX.

    Things inevitably drift, but beneath the surface in the best songs there is a toughness and a newfound resilience.

    It's a remarkably sharp pop record that retains her fascination with pop-culture iconography and the rosey simplicity of a post-war America where classic rock and blue jeans ruled and takes them to much deeper places. ... Think of it as an hour-long car ride peeling down the highway with classic rock blaring out of the radio and no real destination in mind other than where your impulsive nature might take you.

    A thematically rich record, heavy on mood and elegantly written in a way that positions Del Rey between Eve Babitz and Carole King. There are beguiling and evolving melodies underneath the spare piano and acoustic arrangements. [Nov 2019, p.24]
