Lana Del Rey best opening song

I stopped listening after ultraviolence.

OMG, it was so hard to vote for one song, a real opening queen

[Thomas P 18,429]

These make up the majority of my absolute favourite songs by her. Every single one is a genuine masterpiece.

It’s between Cruel World, NFR and The Grants, but it’s so so so so so close. Those are my favourites from each of those albums, and these make up my Lana Holy Trinity of albums.

I might vote for The Grants, solely because it makes me cry, but it’s a tie.

It still baffles me all these years later that 13 Beaches was not the opening track for L4L. It CLEARLY was intended to be the opener, but I guess her label wanted the first two singles to come first?? 

On my playlist, I have Lust for Life after In My Feelings and before Coachella (even though my playlist deleted Coachella ) and I put Love in between Change and Get Free (as sort of a closer before the finale). 

All this to be said, my vote would've been 13 Beaches but since it's not, my vote is Cruel World. I find Cruel World to be a fantastic introduction to the raw, gritty depth and darkness (and sonic change from BTD/P).
