Her new album is really nice. Not as good as the previous album (I find that the songs on that album happen to be easier to listen to, if that makes sense.) but if you haven't heard Ultraviolence yet, I suggest 'Brooklyn Baby', 'Black Beauty', and 'Florida Kilos' are the best.

I'm actually not too terribly familiar with her music, but she is indeed very beautiful and from the songs I have heard, she does have a very different kind of sound.
I'm a big fan of her genre, so I should probably take a better listen to her.

I am 100% a Lana Del Rey fan. Her unreleased songs are some of the very best.

Definitely! I really enjoy her music. She has a few songs that I found that aren't as popular that I also like.

I haven't heard ALL of her songs, but the ones I have heard are amazing and very well written. I think one reason I like her is that she doesn't write like the typical popular musicians.

I love Lana's music (funny I saw this I have just been on a binge lately haha!)
To me it feels like she tries to put more "art" into her work, if that makes sense. She creates elaborate videos that are more like short films, and draws from inspirations that just make it feel like her songs are more than just a catchy tune.

Lana has a few good songs, I haven't listened to every single one but there are a few I don't care too much for. But her voice is unique and I think she did an amazing job on the song 'young and beautiful' from the movie 'The Great Gatsby' -also 'once upon a dream' from the 'maleficent' movie soundtrack is unbelievable with her voice!

I stumbled upon the remix version of her song "Summertime Sadness" by accident and absolutely loved it. I loved it so much, I looked up the original. Such a beautiful and haunting melody. Her songs her poetic and her voice is great. She stands out among the similar sounding pop stars of today.
