I love you for this legend
Yass finallly a Hope is a dangerous recognition 🥹
''this kinda country club vibe'' SHE REALLY PREDICTED CHEMTRAILS OMG
Every time I listen to this album, I have a new favorite. I fixate on a different set of lyrics each time. The album is great for an ongoing listen & analyze. Obsessed with “hope is a dangerous thing...” right now. Love hearing your thoughts.
Thank you! Yes.. Love “Hope is a dangerous thing...” so much!
WOW Zach, didn't expect you here, dude
"Love Song" does something to me every time I listen to it. Touches me deeply and makes me weep. Perfection.
There's an ig live video on UA-cam where Lana and Jack are in the studio, they sing Norman, name it as their favorite song and then say Love Song was the first one they made together. And Chuck says Love Song is her favorite song and NFR is her favorite album. Just a little bit of info 💙
Cinnamon Girl gets me every. single. time. But then again the whole album is INCREDIBLE.
@Izzia Ismail everybody loves that song for some reason lol
cars mean a lot in lana's world. she said they symbolize her fast paced life and the momentum of it. so when in love song she sings 'spill my clothes on the floor of your new car' she just means she'd show all her vulnerability while she's a part that person's life
Ugh I wish Lana could watch this video so she can see that people really do understand how brilliant she is
She asks for Cherry Coke and not wine bc she use to suffer from alcoholism for which her parents sent her to boarding school. She stays sober as much as possible and obviously mentioned Cherry Coke since it's one of her favourite drinks (since she's referenced it in many songs)
Im so sad that I cant find Cherry Coke anywhere in my country 😭 I bet I will love it
@@fid.firdhaus it’s my favorite drink🥰
@@edgarallanhoe8838 didn’t they discontinue it?
As someone who English isn't his first language I really appreciate how you explain the lyrics ty 🌻
ummm, your profile pic i-- 💀🤖
@@michz2156 omg 😇
The Greatest is not only about the end of a relationship. The loss she's referring to has a rather existential aspect to it -- she's experiencing burnout and feels exhausted by the status quo, all that's currently happening in the world. It's quite a dark song where we see Lana at her breaking point ("If this is it, I'm signing off"). What is interesting about this song is how paradoxical to some extent the instrumental is, it feels almost triumphant (to me at, least).
This is probably my favorite Lana album
My favorite song is California

Lana's music just transcends to another plane and she pulls you with her when you listen to her songs. NFR is my personal favorite though I feel like you gotta do Ultraviolence the album. Hearing you poetic perspective just added another layer of insight to these songs I've listen to so many times. I had somethings I've noticed, but your attention certain lines and the literary devices Lana uses which you explain has provided me with the reason why those lines hit me hard; its the repition, the rhymes, the precise syllables used in each line, imagery, tone in the written word as well as her vocal tone all crest this cohesive synergy that just simply put makes me feel. Thank you for your analysis.
Love your analysis on her analysis! I feel very much the same!
Yes!
Can’t wait for you to dive into “Off To The Races”
yes!!
i think you just made me love this album even more. didn't catch the car metaphor in love song "we go so fast we don't move" to describe her relationship at first, haha it's so simple but it hits right and now i cant get this out of my head, thank you
Next video recommendation: "Poet reacts to WAP"
😭😭😭
Nooo😭😭😭
Plzzzzzzzzzz
Ew no
No one wants to hear that
I was dying to see u react lana del rey albums! Love that.
I'd definetely love to see you react her other albums, obviously she's one of the best and most influential lyricist in our generation.
Love from Europe!
finally bartender getting the love it deserves 😭
fr it’s one of my fav songs off this album but it rarely gets love
I love that you said we can imagine any person we loved during the instrumental part of “Venice Bitch” ❤️
i had no idea you didn’t listen to all of this yet! it was a gem from last year, but i hope the wait was worth it. and i gotta say i loved each of your reactions - how you loved Venice Bitch throughout (this is my favorite of hers) and skipped Doin’ Time (as you should 😳) - and the explanation of some of her songwriting. i don’t know if that’s going to be a thing in your channel, but i’d love it if it were, it really helps me as a freshman in Linguistics. regardless, this album is beautifully vintage for sure, i can’t listen to it without a poetic license because it speaks volumes when it comes to the lyrics. but the best thing is that the production lives up to it and makes the songs way more vivid. and at each video you get prettier (felt like i should mention)!! i can’t wait to see more of your reactions and hope you’re safe and well 🤗
I can't believe I read all that 😩😩
@@mfbye6973 lmaooo i’m so sorry... it was just prattling. save your strength to read a book!
@@ahttacca I hate reading books 🙂

Happiness is a Butterfly is the poem of the decade💁♀️
Love Song is one of my top-5 fav songs of this album. But i have to say that you literally made me understand and feel this song in a complete new way. I would've never realized the meaning of the line "we go fast, we go so fast we don't move" without your interpretation. Now that I'm watching your reaction I can see sadness in that song, though I always considered it happy.
Thank you so much 💛
If you haven’t heard her album Honeymoon, you should definitely check it out because it’s such an underrated masterpiece and I think you’d like the lyrics in it!!😀😀
I love your energy so much and you are so articulate!!! Please serve us what we need: HONEYMOON - LDR!
Loved this comment too and NFR is one of my favorite albums in general. I really can relate to what touches you about Lana way of writing and I got hit by basically the same tracks and details. Looking forward to seeing your reaction for her next one☺️
You should listen to “looking for america” from lana del rey! It’s a solo song, not from any album and it’s amazing. Love your videos, keep up with the good work!
NFR is the best album of last decade
Easily my favorite LDR album. Glad you got to it! Given what you reviewed, I think you'd like Mitski. I'd start with her "Be The Cowboy" album.
for me, california has a special spot in my heart. not only is this such a hauntingly beautiful song but there’s a specific lyric that always gets to me and does to any lana fan that’s been around since her song ride was released. in the song ride, there’s a lyric that goes “i’ve got a war in my mind”. this lyric was something i could relate to as it symbolizes depression and how it can make you feel like you have a war on your mind. throughout the years, i’ve reached a level of mental stability in which i could no longer relate to that lyric in ride. so, to my surprise, when i heard the lyric in california, “i’ve heard the war is over if you really choose”, i was moved. i finally healed and so did lana. it was like we both grew and chose to free ourselves from this war in our mind.
also i love the time stamps and the titles u implemented, it’s so cute
For me love song is where the relationship is fading for reasons you don’t want it to, the feelings are still there but you’re seeing an end.
Although i gotta admit that’s where i was when i heard it, and that was the reason why it hit me that way.
Also i love how that album cover is the first where she’s not standing in front of a car, but on a boat, cuz her being the anchor of the relationship is the theme throughout
Love song is one of my favourites on the album and what i picked up from it was *vulnerability* (is it safe is it safe to just be who we are) specially in the parts she repeats the line in a more soft spoken way, *trust* ("i believe in the place you take me" and "touch me anywhere 'cause I'm your baby
grab my waist, don't waste any part
I believe that you see me for who I am so spill my clothes on the floor of your new car") but i can also see that sense of longingness when she says "be my once in a lifetime"
i would really love to see you reacting to her whole discography
Ugh a queen reacting to another queen!! Iconic
Her albums are definitely her works of art- but for individual songs you should probably check out her latest single and Looking for America since they sound the most like this.
I think the Ride music video would be a good way to understand earlier Lana. The fans love referring to it because you can see her growth towards happiness since then perfectly summed up in how she wishes to be a poet in the monologue - which obviously she achieved, it’s really beautiful how much she has been able to express her happiness in her poetry since she was always so attached to her feelings of frustration and experiences with violence before.
You delivered what we're been asking for!!!
Favorite review of NFR ever!
love this album and also just wanted to say u have a really strong sense for poetry and writing and i love that u can pull so much from art!
YES i’ve been waiting for this
Your interpretation of the songs are great! I think this is her most poetic album yet,it's amazing. And yes i can also hear in Love Song (and most of the album) this longing feeling. Venice bitch and Happiness is a butterfly are my favorites ❤❤
The "bar-t-t-tender" is an onomatopoeia for belching of glass :)
I’m your 100th comment! I love your reactions.
Glad I found your reaction, I have some background in creative writing and poetry I really enjoyed and you’ve helped my progression towards picking that back up.
Crediting you with the discovery of the 5 syllable repetition on Love Song, completely love the style choices Lana uses in her lyrics.
I love your analysis! This might be one of my favourite reaction to the album.
I wonder if you plan to analyse some of Kate Bush’s work, she’s very artistic and I think you’d enjoy her writing
You’re a queen just like Lana ❤️ love it!!
You should react to the album Lush by Mitski, i really think you'd enjoy it, the lyrics are superb. I loved watching this reaction and seeing how u interpret the lyrics :)
also it's a pretty short record!! only about 20-25 minutes
yesss! definetily
I just have to say it, I love you💓 you are so smart and you understand everything the writer tries to say.
Watching your video and hearing your comments I fell in love again with this album. Thanks!
Notice how there are no dislikes? Good job on the review!! ❤️
You should seriously react to Mitski! her lyrics are some of my favorites ever. Love your videos!
I LOVE YOUR INTELLECTUAL BREAKDOWN!!! Yessss!!! I often find Lana’s deeply layered metaphorical lyrics are a feeling, not even something to be interpreted into words. It’s like if you know, you know… you know? Lol but this album was very direct in her lyrics and I really enjoyed that as well. It was very easy listening. And that Venice bitch instrumental bridge was just as much as a star. She really showcases her bands that she works with. Love song also my fav. And I also feel sadness/longing and wanting to hold to whatever can latch on to him. I take that back tho … cinnamon girl is my fav on here lol that outro 😻
I loved your reaction. Greetings from Costa Rica 🇨🇷
i'm obsessed with ur channel and videos. i love how u interpret and vibe with the songs
I’m sure someone has mentioned this but the canyon she is referring to is Laurel Canyon, which is in LA and a part of “the hills” ❤️
"You fu**ed me so good that I almost said I love you." and then the sequel - "Fuck it I love you"
Cinnamon Girl is always get me.
Just subbed, so happy you dived into this masterpiece.
Happiness is a butterfly is just that song
Yes, waiting for this!! Love your reactions so much 💖
Omg i can't wait for you to react to all of her albums, it's just masterpieces over masterpiece
ultra violence is also amazing. the single is her masterpiece after hope is a dangerous thing...
Can you react Lana Del Rey’s other albums too?
This is one of my favorite albums of all time. I’ve listened to it several times and I hadn’t actually caught every thing. Thank you so much for your reaction. I think I didn’t realize how deep was each of those lines. I also have a suggestion of video. Could you react to Selena Gomez’s « rare » album ?
you're just go good. literally in love with this reaction/analysis ♥️
I really loved this video lol. Amazing reaction! And you're gorgeous 😍. Im sure you knew that already tho.
Hi Sher!! Amazing video!! In terms of Lana's work - pretty much the album reviews be a great point to start. If looking for specific songs, I think you'd like the following ones -
Born to die: Dark paradise and radio
Ultraviolence: West coast
Honeymoon: Salvatore
Lust for Life: Love, Cherry; 13 beaches; Tomorrow never Came
Other: Young and beautiful
i just love how u get it. u just fcking get it
yes! i like ur name btw:)
my thoughts exactly
your reactions to Love song... I FEEL YOUUUU💗
react to the album How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful by florence and the machine pleeeeaaaaase, I’d love to hear your analysis of such masterpiece
Cinnamon Girl while drinking cinnamon tea.
'Cinnamon Girl' also makes me cry!!
Loved this! You should do Frank Oceans “Blond” next!
Wow I finally understand the phrase “candle in the wind”.
this is so good- you should react to the album "Electra Heart" next :0
@Jim Kay Jones i dont think froot has as much to analyse lyrically.
the family jewels though? yes lets unpack that
When she says Wow you know she really felt it
Gurl we all cry when “Cinnamon Girl” is on. It gets me all the time 😭
loving that you felt every single lyrics, lana del rey people
React to hozier. He has great lyrics
This is the best reaction for lana's album. Thanks for your effort. And btw you’re so beautiful maam. Greetings.
Could you maybe do videos on your actual process of writing? Maybe inspiration, what goes into your personal process, different styles, your experience, etc?
Thank you for putting warning I appriciate you for that ❤️❤️🧚♀️
omg you should totally react to the album "the family jewels" by MARINA, I think you'd love the lyrics and meanings of the songs, one of my favourite albums.
Love Song || reminds me of the relationship I never got to have with my father
Nfr was my least favorite of her work although I still thought it was so beautiful but you have just made me appreciate it better, this is why I love watching reactions, you get to see the beauty from other peoples views. Sometimes you just need other people with their understanding to help you.
I really really enjoyed this video. Thank you so much.
Next time you should use some headphones, the music hits different.😭❤️
love this.. you give off the best energy!!
Next you have to watch *Lana's acoustic performance of HOW TO DISAPPEAR and VENICE BEACH* at the Apple event 2018
ua-cam.com/video/bfHEnw6Rm-4/v-deo.html
She gets introduced at 01:20:00
(fun fact she's always been struggling with stage fright, but she's way better now)
"Love song that was beautiful." Oh no she's going to Cinnamon Girl which is so sad in comparison to Love Song. O.O
now i want to read your poetry so bad
just this one video makes me your fan.you did the best reaction ,I also could learn so much from you.you r an intelligent girl with such a good temperament .you r like my idol only second to Lana.Love you!!!!
"Hello it's the most famous woman you know on the iPad
- Calling from beyond the grave, I just wanna say, "Hi dad" - is actually Sylvia Plath who's talking
Actually, in an interview Lana said it's her speaking directly to her Dad and that's the most personal lyric for her.
great video, subbed
loved your reaction!
california 🤝 savior complex (phoebe bridgers)
This album is truly beautiful, and I adore your reaction to it, I relate so much hahah I've just discovered this video and I'm already a fan!! :DD
Side note: something really weird happened. So you know the light thing that happened at 42:11 because of that tropical storm? I decided to touch the screen to take a little black speck off of it right then it happened and it became a truly immersive experience for me lol
you have to listen to mitski! she has some of the most poetic songs around. listen to bury me at make out creek or puberty 2
amo mucho tus videos!! por favor nunca te detengas!! eres muy hermosa!!
“Now, I’m gonna skip ‘Doing Time’ because I have heard that one and I know it’s a cover, I think it’s a GREAT cover, but uh, I’m not gonna hear it. I’m not gonna react to that one.”
-Me, every time I play this album.
Let’s go to Love Song!
React to all her albums ♥️
hey queen this is very amazing. i hope you react to her other albums as well :)
