The songs shine through beautiful melodies and pop sounds that differ materially from current RNB and Disco Sound 2012. Miraculously beautiful instruments and elements are involved, sometimes the sky is full of violins, sometimes enchanted angelic harp music the listener, then sounding earthy piano sounds and you will be temporarily retrieved from rough beats to the floor. Especially in the slow songs I'm Lana del Rey's sad voice dazed, beautiful and at the same time they hammergeil mesmerized my senses. And even if the music is a little faster, the song still exudes a certain coolness and melancholy. The music seems tinged in many places a little retro.
Many of the songs would probably sound as acoustic versions or with orchestra or big band accompaniment great, then the album for me would be perfect. And there is also a small problem for me, intend to make a pop album in retro style has not been consistently thought here to the end, because in some areas already disturb the Uuhhs and Yeahs any background rapper and the technical and intrusive Beat wins pretty in some places on back. But in the sum succeed Lana del Rey a beautiful and varied debut album, which is probably rightly crowned with great success. She shines as a cool angel above the rest of the music world.
