I agree. It’s by far her best album and one of my favorites ever. I thinks it’s because it’s actually very unique...the entire hip-hop/electronic influenced production combined with her voice is like no other album I’ve heard. It manages to be fun and catchy but also very dark and serious with crazy good lyrics. I love it!

Thank u for this 

Most of the people don't know that the album is a mix of  real instruments, and hip hop sound and that's what makes it a masterpiece for me...  Lana is truly phenomenal

Born to Die has some really strong tracks but also some average ones, I’ll still stand by my psychedelic rock sis Ultraviolence :rockstar:

Uh Red Wine... Convict... Gah Gah...

"Every time I close my eyes, it's like a dark paradise", is the first example that comes to my mind. To me, it feels like she was trying too hard to write a somber song that romanticises sadness. 

I mean I still enjoy the album, but in comparison to her other work, BTD is far from being a masterpiece to me. 

I'm sure behind that line there's a deep meaning..  And i find it melancholic not cheesy..

It's my least favorite album of hers. Doesn't change the fact that it's still one of the best albums ever, she's just that good.

Lust For Life is a masterpiece IMO. Especially the holy trinity of Herion-Change-Get Free that close the album

YES but i don’t listen to it as often as the others. UV-LFL Lana grew on me so much through the years, so BTD sounds dated compared to her newest releases 

I have to say that Blue Jeans became my fave after all these years. It used to be National Anthem or Summertime Sadness back in a day 

also special shoutout to Without You :heart: it never gets old

I like summer time sadness and blue jeans (i have so many great memories with those songs) but i'm more into underrated songs like RADIO,  carmen, off to the races,  dark paradise.

I haven’t listened to the album in full, but I have heard many of them and it is magical. The way her vocals blend with the instrumentals is quite pleasing and intriguing.

I wanna start getting into Lana more so I’m gonna try and listen to all of her albums in full. 

Get Applause & G.U.Y to 1B views!

For me it is a masterpiece, she bought me with her Born To Die video aesthetics and with her everlasting melancholy :vegas:

I respect ur opinion but I can't find anything immature and cheesy in that album at least lyrically

“Diet Mountain Dew” doesn’t ring a bell? :laughga:

Her whole discography is a masterpiece. I need her to hurry up and release NFR before I die of thirst :pray:
