Honeymoon is actually top tier
I've always loved Btd-Pd-Uv and that has always been my top 3, with Uv being g no.1 (and it still is), BUT
I've been sleeping on Honeymoon
It's such a vibe, like being transported to a pretty, Italian summer, ultra-feminine, jazzy, bluesy, dreamy world. It's so LUSH, so vintage, it oozes sad sexiness and femininity. I can just imaging doing my makeup while sadly lipsyncing to the songs, being embodied in being beautiful and sad and mysterious.
There are so manh sounds scattered throughout it that reminds me of jazz playing in outerspace, the glossy production and her hazy voice just sync so well together.
Yes it is a slow album, even slower than Ultra, but you have to be in a certain MOOD to fully appreciate it, I've always liked certain tracks - namely HBtB, Salvatore, TBD, but I'm becoming obsessed with the title track, GKIT, MtWBt and Terrence.
Her aesthetics and photoshoots during this era perfectly encapsulate that low-key mysterious plush LANA DEL REY vibe, (her eras are always cohesive with the sonics and themes of albums) but it really is just so beautiful.
HONEYMOON is better than Nfr, Ocean Blvd, BB, COCC and L4l easily
