Born To Die – Off To The Races – Blue Jeans – Video Games is the most perfect sequence of songs in the history of music made by mankind. Sorry, I don't make the rules. And yes, that's technically even one punch too much, but that only further proves my point.

 

And then DMD comes after Video Games and... well, yeah...

13 Beaches > cherry > white mustang > Summer bummer 

white dress > chemtrails > tulsa

Sad Girl > PWYC > MPG > FMWUTTT

[SalvaWHORE 34,421]

NFR - MAC- Venice Bitch

[Let the Light In 19,402]

Heroin-Change-Get Free is her best trio and best closing. The story telling is just immaculate. It elevates the whole album to another level.

 

“I hope that I come back one day to tell you that I really changed”

 

“Change is a powerful thing, I feel it coming in me… whenever it comes, I’ll be here for it.”

 

“Finally, I'm crossing the threshold from the ordinary world to the reveal of my heart… I wanna move out of the black, into the blue”

[PatentLeatherDoOver 25,783]

For me, at least…
 

Tied For 1st: 

•Heroin -> Change -> Get Free

•White Dress -> COCC -> Tulsa Jesus Freak

Tied For 2nd: 

•NFR -> MAC -> Venice Bitch

•SoC -> Brooklyn Baby -> West Coast

[longtimeman 9,173]

So, the first six tracks of Born To Die are a perfect double 1-2-3 punch, but aside from that ...

Shades of Cool - Brooklyn  Baby - West Coast: Always puts me in a wild mood.

I'm tempted to say every three consecutive songs on Blue Banisters, but I'll just say Dealer - Thunder - WW.

[bluechemtrails 28,210]

Jump -> Mermaid Motel -> Raise Me Up -> Pawn Shop Blues
Put Me In A Movie -> Smarty -> Yayo

Shades Of Cool -> Brooklyn Baby -> West Coast
Pretty When You Cry -> Money Power Glory -> Fucked My Way Up To The Top

Honeymoon -> Music To Watch Boys To -> Terrence Loves You

Tulsa Jesus Freak -> Let Me Love You Like A Woman -> Wild At Heart -> Dark But Just A Game

Text Book -> Blue Banisters -> Arcadia
Violets for Roses -> Dealer -> Thunder
Living Legend -> Cherry Blossom -> Sweet Carolina

[Cherry Blossom 21,723]

put me in a movie -> smarty -> yayo

It would be a 1-2-3-4-5 punch if she used The Flight's version instead of the botched Emile Haynie one

There's nothing wrong with Emile's take imo the production is sick! But the way they chose to follow the slowest ballad oon the album with the most uptempo track was a choice

I actually don't hate Emile's version lol, it's alright but I definitely prefer the demo- I feel the same way about Lolita

The demo with Emile's beat would be a dream, but yeah some demos like DMD, Lolita, TIWMUG and Lucky Ones are way superior

[TheBoss 13,541]

Dealer -> Thunder -> Wildflower Wildfire would be my pick but since the youtube rips are on the way I guess i have to say the White Dress -> COCC -> TJF punch aged like FINE WINE

Heroin -> Change -> Get Free is my all time favorite. What a way to end an album. But besides that, I'd say that Shades of Cool -> Brooklyn Baby -> West Coast and High By The Beach -> Freak -> Art Deco are really nice. White Dress -> Chemtrails -> Tulsa Jesus Freak is a good one too imo

I came here to write All three sets that you mentioned. Our minds are intelligent.

 

Lana grouping these 9 songs like that makes her smarter than Einstein or Steve Hawkins. Her being named artist of the decade was not a "just because"
