I just got into Lana Del Rey (by accident) on the day Honeymoon dropped. I did a YouTube search for the Weeknd ' s Prisoner (ft. Lana Del Rey) and I was busy doing something else, and the next video that came on was the full Born to Die album. About 20 minutes into it, I realized that I loved it -- albeit 3 years late. Then, I went onto Google Play to hear samples of all her music. I was instantly in love with every song on Born to Die, Ultrviolence, and Honeymoon. I purchased and downloaded all three albums onto every smart phone and tablet I own. Her voice is amazing, full of peculiar range and awkwardness, yet ethereal. I know she has a lot of fans, but I feel like I hit the jackpot by being able to hear all her music for the first time, all at once.

I love the Weeknd ' s new album, and I have followed Tesfay from the free online days, but Lana Del Rey is tragically wonderful.
