But the best songs are up there with Honeymoon and Ultraviolence. Lust For Life is a mess, it's her least cohesive and has a couple of her worst songs and most of the collaborations are unnecessary IMO. I love her vocals on Gods and Monsters and Cola, the rest of the songs are great too. Tied for number three is Paradise and Lust For Life. Maybe if they would be replaced with Black Beauty and Florida Kilos. Ultraviolence is a great album but those songs keeps it from being a perfect album. Money Power Glory is the worst culprit, I Futzed My Way Up to the Top is the other one. The first half of the album is perfect and cohesive but the second half has a couple of songs that I don't think fit the album. I love Dan Auerbach's production and guitars (especially on Cruel World and West Coast). The instrumental version of the album is beautiful too, especially the title track. My least favorite is the cover of Don't Let Me Be Understood, it's good but I feel the album ends with Swan Song and Don't Let Me Be Understood is the song that would be playing over the end credits if it was a movie. Terrence Loves You, Burnt Norton and Salvatore are other favorites, the whole album is amazing. My absolute favorite is the title track, Honeymoon, it's so slow it almost falls apart. It's so dreamy and slow, like the whole album goes in slow motion. I love every song and the production is stunning.
