Lana Del Rey - Honeymoon (2015)

When making Honeymoon, I feel like the hardest part for Lana Del Rey was deciding the track order. She makes sultry singing sound easy with her smokey voice. But how the heck did she decide what order to put her songs in? Really, a lot of them do sound the same.

Honeymoon is incredibly easy listening. If you're looking to be challenged, check Kendrick Lamar's To Pimp a Butterfly, because you won't be finding anything difficult here. Highlight tracks are all of them, or none of them. It depends if you are a Lana fan or not.

Just like with Future in What a Time to Be Alive, Rey isn't gonna convert any haters with Honeymoon. But I bet her fanbase is pleased and rightly so. The sun-dappled high spirits of Lana's lifestyle are ever present, making Honeymoon a sweet swan song to a summer gone by.

Many of the songs follow a pop formula, so it does get a little tiring, but Lana is doing Lana, and I'm pretty sure she knows what her fanbase wants. This is probably good kissing music.
