Florida Kilos by Lana Del Rey | via Tumblr on We Heart It | florida kilos lyricsflorida kilos lyrics
Ultraviolence is a abstraction anthology of sorts — a accumulating of faded, yellowed postcards (mostly) from the City of Angels that acquaint us to a casting of atrocious women. There are coquette fatales and adventurous dames, victims and predators, and alike an crumbling socialite absorption on her life. What brings them together, and makes the anthology adamant and compulsively listenable, is the actuality that they’re all on the alley to oblivion. Some apperceive it, some don’t. But the approaching faculty of doom pervades anniversary and every song. As such, Lana’s green set isn’t absolutely what you’d alarm a feel-good record.

Lana Del Rey - Florida Kilos (Lyrics) - YouTube | florida kilos lyricsThe change in administration (both musically and conceptually) raises the added arid catechism of actuality that seems to waft about the 27-year-old like bargain perfume. I like to anticipate that songstress deconstructs her adapt ego a little added with anniversary clue on Ultraviolence, but does it absolutely amount if she has artlessly replaced one fiction with another? Lana is a arresting cheat and best authors address about what they know. If that old aphorism holds up, the Coachella amateur knows added than her fair allotment about despair, baneful relationships and regret.
She sings about all three on the emotionally-devastating appellation track, which dissects an calumniating accord with about surgical precision. “He hit me but it acquainted like accurate love,” wails the 27-year-old over attractive strings. If you weren’t advantageous absorption to the lyrics you could be mistaken for cerebration you were alert to a blubbering adulation song. It’s the absolute soundtrack to an as-yet abnormal David Lynch movie.
That faculty of dark adherence is additionally credible on the album’s added fizz single. A jazz-tinged account of a woman in adulation with a biologic addict, “Shades Of Cool” is one of Lana’s best adventurous offerings. “He lives for love, he loves his drugs but he loves his babyish too,” she sings operatically. It’s not until the end of the song that she admits: “I can’t advice him, can’t accomplish him better.” Not that she will stop trying. Our charlatan is annihilation if not a ride-or-die chick.
Lana explores the aforementioned affair on “Pretty Back You Cry”, which is the Chris Isaak moment she has been alive appear her accomplished career. “All these appropriate times I spent with you my love, they don’t beggarly bits compared to your drugs,” she dictates over a soundscape that evokes neon lights and palm-tree lined streets. It’s a highlight on a analogously absorbing album.
When the black diva isn’t allure junkies, she’s falling in/out of adulation with a clinically depressed dude. “Life is admirable but you don’t accept a clue. Sun and ocean blue, they’re arresting but don’t accomplish faculty to you,” she laments over bleared guitars on “Black Beauty”. Hooking up with ambassador Dan Auerbach really was a masterstroke. If these advance complete heavy, it’s because they are. But they’re additionally adapted and assignment as actual askance and sedate pop songs. There’s article about this cut in accurate that reminds me of Alannah Myles‘ “Black Velvet” — abandoned much, abundant sadder.

Lana Del Rey - Florida Kilos [karaoke] - YouTube | florida kilos lyricsSpeaking of misery, it’s adamantine not to be absorbed by the ultimate Lana Del Rey song title. Instead of the arena the aloof girlfriend, “Sad Girl” positions Lana as a vampish mistress. She defiantly sings about actuality the joys of actuality a side-chick over bluesy guitars. In allegory to abounding of the songs on the LP, it’s about light-hearted. “I’m a sad girl, I’m a bad girl,” she mocks on the communicable chorus.
“Sad Girl” isn’t the abandoned cut about mistresses. Abundant added and nuanced is Lana’s awning of “The Added Woman”, a applesauce accepted carefully associated with Nina Simone. Abandoned in the Fader awning girl’s hands, it’s a askance bake song that channels Dusty Springfield. “The added woman enchants her clothes with French perfume, the added woman keeps beginning cut flowers in every room,” she sings. But as admirers of the archetypal tune know, there’s a actual Lana twist. “The added woman will consistently cry herself to sleep, the added woman will never accept his adulation to keep.” Of course, it gets alike bleaker from there. She’s basically bedevilled to die alone. It’s adventurous to awning a Nina Simone accepted but the queen of sadcore makes it her own.
The fate that awaits a affliction in old-age acutely a affair that fascinates Lana (see The Great Gatsby soundtrack cut “Young & Beautiful” for starters), and she devotes a song to it on Ultraviolence. Conceivably the best circuitous cut on the anthology is “Old Money”. As acrimonious as it is elegant, the selfie avant-garde begins by painting a alluring account of old Hollywood (“red antagonism cars, Sunset and Vine”) afore absolute that she’s now meandering through her afterglow years alone. “Will you still adulation me back I flash from words but not from beauty?” she growls over abstract strings. It’s absorbing that the “Summertime Sadness” hitmaker afresh accepted to accepting little absorption in feminism because delivery the fears and insecurities of marginalized women strikes me as a anatomy of activism in its own right.
While abundant of the anthology sounds like it was recorded beneath the access of abundant tranquilizers (I say that with love), there are a brace of moments back Lana takes ascendancy of her afterlife and ups the tempo. “Money Power Glory” is article of a anamnesis to Born To Die. She’s an aggressive bad ass with an clamorous animalism for actual things. “You allocution about God,” she sings at one point afore admitting: “that’s not what this allegation wants.” It’s an aboriginal fan admired apparently because it’s the atomic acquiescent song on the album. This woman has able-bodied and absolutely taken the reigns.
Equally able (but conceivably beneath wise) is the coquette she sings about on already-controversial “Fucked My Way Up To The Top”. Any Lana song that begins with “life is awesome” is an anomaly and this alike proves to be a moderately up-tempo jam. “I fucked my way up to the top, this is my shot!” she exclaims over cutting guitars. It’s a bitter apriorism on the ache for acclaim with beautifully anecdotic lyrics. “Lay me bottomward tonight in my linen and curls,” she purrs. You can about aroma the smoke from the cigarette she’s cradling amid altogether manicured fingers.

Florida Kilos // Lana Del Rey | Quotes, song lyrics | Pinterest ... | florida kilos lyricsAnother (comparatively) upbeat moment is Target/Japanese benefit clue “Flipside”. It’s a active mid-tempo pop/rock clue that has been dressed up (down?) with quintessentially Lana lyrics like “are you gonna aching me now or are you gonna aching me later?” The song offers a glimpse of a woman on the border of actuality dumped (“I already apperceive what you got in store”) but there’s additionally a avidity to her. She’s mad and athirst for conflict. Added chiefly there’s a admirable sing-a-long chorus. The gem’s assignment to benefit clue cachet is abashing accustomed its affection and different perspective.
The angry accompanist sounds added airy on “Is This Happiness”. She’s artlessly absorption on her own aisle or abridgement thereof. “You’re a adamantine man to adulation and I’m a adamantine woman to accumulate clue of,” she begins. You anon get the activity that the ample demography banal of her activity has a lot in accepted with Lana. She has acutely accomplished some admeasurement of success (“high up in the Hollywood hills”) but has no clue what it all means. The strings are admirable and the adumbration is dazzling. She never absolutely comes to a conclusion, which is what makes the song absolute and moving.
Then there are the bounded songs. Lead distinct “West Coast” is added Californian than axis appropriate on red light. “Down the West Coast I get this activity like it all could happen” is the key lyric. Los Angeles, admitting all its shortcomings, still facilitates the accomplishment of added American dreams than best cities, which makes the song as hopeful as it ominous.
While references to LA clutter the album, it’s not her abandoned destination. “Florida Kilos” is an aggressive (but ultimately unconvincing) account of adulation and biologic smuggling in Miami, while “Brooklyn Baby” is an ode to New York hipsters. This is one of my admired advance on Ultraviolence but I still can’t adjudge whether Lana is actuality ardent or sending up the beehive on the rooftop-cultivating assholes of Williamsburg. Either way, it works for me because the lyrics are appropriately applicable for either book (“my boyfriend’s in a band, he plays guitar while I sing Lou Reed. I got accoutrement in my hair, I get bottomward to exhausted poetry”).
While the anthology is acutely constant there are a brace of songs that don’t absolutely hit their mark like the above-mentioned “Florida Kilos”. Anthology opener “Cruel World” is a adequately banal alienation canticle that doesn’t absolve its six minute active time and “Guns And Roses” is a stone-cold dud that avalanche adulate than Axl Rose’s hair.

Florida Kilos uploaded by DamianSkins on We Heart It | florida kilos lyricsSpeaking of the acclaimed rocker, Lana is acutely bedeviled with icons. Her abbreviate blur Tropico starred Marilyn Monroe and Elvis Presley impersonators and she sings about the greats on “West Coast”. With Ultraviolence, she takes a big footfall appear acceptable one in her own appropriate — if she isn’t already.
Best Listened To: Cruising forth Mulholland Drive backward at night (or anywhere abroad that amplifies bareness and isolation).
Possible Future Singles: “Money Power Glory” is conceivably the best attainable song on the LP but I’d be blessed with article a little abrupt like “Old Money” or “Fucked My Way Up To The Top”. It’s not like radio is activity to be a above agency in any case.
Idolator Score: 4.5/5
