G.B.A (God Bless America)
The Best of Lana Del Rey
The Revenge of Lana Del Rey
The World is Ours
Do U Luv Me Yet?
Born 2 Die
The Next Best American Record

I think that the lyric from Crazy For You - "Well, I've been dreaming about you but I've been singing with him, I feel bad about it" - sums that situation perfectly up

Lana songs aren't really that scary for me but if there's a song (and video) that has creepy vibes then it's probably the 2007 live version of Brite Lites. The loud horror-like guitar and the red low quality video makes it look like it's from the dark web which went viral in the late 2000s and people started making creepypastas of it.
Not gonna lie, I love it actually, even if the guitar sounds weird 
 

Hey @Unknown 
 
You're always welcomed here and you can always come here to talk more about the outtakes and recording process from different eras! 🪐

Also, I know it's some kind of a sensitive topic she touched in Fingertips and The Grants but
 

Didn't Jack Antonoff also mention that those bombastic NFR outtakes are girl-group tracks like The Shangri-Las?

Also, people tend to forget that the version of TNBAR that was in NFR was already intended to be on the final version of LFL because in an interview in 2017, Lana said that TNBAR is about Topanga and such.

Also, I know it's some kind of a sensitive topic she touched in Fingertips and The Grants but
 

Lately I had a theory, that between August 2015-March 2016, Lana wanted to do a deluxe or some kind of a special version (similar to Paradise) for Honeymoon. I know that Honeymoon was a vanity project but that kind of explains why she was making random songs during Summer/Autumn 2015 like Serene Queen or Cry Kill Die. She wanted to do a special version for Ultraviolence too and it later was formed as Honeymoon. I think Lust For Life album we know as today was formed after the end of her Festival Tour in August 2016/September 2016. Because I remember something that she recorded LFL with Abel in September 2016 (because he had a new haircut or something + they had recorded Stargirl and Party Monster in 2016 too).

Late June 2014 (on 24th if I'm not wrong) Lana said to the media that they have broken up and that way Barrie found out that they had broken up 💀

Mhm yup cause Francesco was already around at that point, lana you dirty girl

Ok, let me handle it.
 
I'm certain that my following unoopular opinion/theory is (very) controversial AND LONG! 
 
The so-called "witchy dreamy spacey cosmic folky psychedelic ambient" original concept is a myth. I don't think that the "witchiness" was even the goal for the album. I have also thought that Lana wasn't really certain either what she wanted for the album. Once in 2015 she talked about her thoughts on the new album "like a New York record, less dreamy and more upbeat". Then in 2016 (at the Pre-Grammy Gala?) she said that the upcoming album will have a similar aesthetic with Honeymoon, although in February 2017 Insta livestream she said that LFL will have a retro-futuristic aesthetic. But the album has also Woodstock/1960s-70s hippie aesthetics which are also seen on the album cover which was shot already in June/July 2016 (the hippie-peace inspired looks were also seen in the Festival Tour 2016). Also at first she made some Shangri-Las inspired songs, then after Donald Trump's victory in November 2016, she started to make more politically oriented songs. Also to think that in 2016 she made electro-pop version of Say Yes To Heaven. Then she also was in relationship with G-Eazy in Spring 2017 which in result she started to make more songs. In an interview with a radio in early 2017, she (and later in an another interview Rick Nowels) also said that the album will be mix of everything, that will have different genres. It's either two options:
 
• she was unsure what to do with the album
• it was intentional and I believe this theory more, because you can see that the album's sound has mix from the sound of her old eras (baroque pop, dream pop, hip-hop, trap, trip hop) and the sound of her upcoming/newer sound (folk, acoustic ballads, folktronica, Americana) which are seen in NFR, COTCC and so on. The collaborations were 100% intentional because Abel and Rocky were important people in the start of her breakthrough and Nicks/Lennon are kind of her idols, so she wanted to show people where is she heading to. That's why she later dedicated to the fans because she was saying goodbye to her "old-self", her old sound. I feel like that was kind of her point the whole time.

Slay but Cry Kill Die and If I Die Young are Honeymoon outtakes not LFL 

I agree 💯! Just like you said, the supposed witchiness vibes come the trailer and her posts about hexing Trump. But other than that, I’m really not sure it even was a thing. Of course, we have some dark songs from that era that can channel witchy vibes in a way (Heroin, Serene Queen) but they also can be associated with the spacey-retro futuristic vibes. 
 
a lot happened in those two years creating this album, which changed the direction of it a lot. 
 
one thing is for sure though: she did say that she sat down early on with interscope to decide what the first two singles would be (my guess is that they wanted a bigger commercial success than HM).

Lana songs aren't really that scary for me but if there's a song (and video) that has creepy vibes then it's probably the 2007 live version of Brite Lites. The loud horror-like guitar and the red low quality video makes it look like it's from the dark web which went viral in the late 2000s and people started making creepypastas of it.

I think that early she started writing songs which started to question everything:
Lust For Life demo - questions about her fame
Heroin - questions about her life and life in general
Get Free - questions about her future
13 Beaches - questions about relationships/fame
Architecture - questions about her ex/past
 
Later she wrote kind of songs that are more anxious and doubtful and also wanting to be hopeful:
Cherry, Change, War, Tomorrow, White Mustang, In My Feelings, Coachella, Lust For Life, Summer Bummer, Beautiful People/Problems.
 
Then there are songs that outside look positive but inside are sad:
Love (just accepting things they way they are), Groupie Love (trying to live with fame), God Bless America (trying to live alone).
 
Of course this is my interpretation. But this is the way I have always seen the album.
