Songs Lana should cover

Recommended Posts

Father John Misty - Bored in the USA

 

 

A beautiful song that plays into Lana's wheelhouse somewhat, particularly the line 'as my beauty warps and fades'.


'So I try to say goodbye my friend // I'd like to leave you with something warm // But never have I been a blue calm sea // I have always been a storm'

I love this song. I cannot help but imagine Lizzy Grant performing this at Arlene's Grocery in that same manner she did Mermaid Motel, smiling and laughing  :rollin:

I think she'd rock Kashmir by Led Zeppelin. I don't think she'd actually do it though because I don't think it lines with her image. 


Goddesses don't speak in whispers. They scream.

Bang Bang by Cher is amazing and if Lana covered it idk if i would have any hair left

:toofunny: Nancy Sinatra's is my preference. Especially the Kill Bill remaster... ugh! Perfetto..

Not sure if someone's already mentioned this song but Some Velvet Morning would be brilliant (especially a duet with Barrie, but yeah that all depends on the conditions of their breakup)

 

"It Don't Hurt Anymore" by Hank Thompson :flutter:

 

Also I would LOVE a Lana christmas collection:

 

White Christmas

I'll Be Home For Christmas

Winter Wonderland

Let It Snow

Blue Christmas

Santa's Coming To Town

Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas

Santa Baby

Silver Bells

The Christmas Song

:crying4:

 

Now that I've gotten thinking about a christmas LP I sorta want Lana to pen her own blood-stained melancholy christmas classic :pray:

I believe B. actually wanted to cover this, but was overruled & they did Summer Wine. (FWIW I think they made the right choice).

 

A lesser known Nancy song she would sound amazing on:

 

Lee:

Walking down some cobbled street

the sound of water near my feet

I found her

A hundred thousand flashes in my mind and soon my arms were all around her

 

We lay and let our hearts take wings and fly across the Seine 

Love came pouring from the sky pretending it was rain

Oo-oh Paris Summer

 

Nancy:

Standing on some cobbled street

the sound of water near my feet

He found me

I took the wedding ring off of my hand before he put his arms around me

 

I lived my lie and dreamed his dreams and laid beside the Seine 

When I left the tears I cried he thought were just the rain

Oo-oh Paris Summer

 

Nancy: Walking down some cobbled street, the sound of water near my feet

Lee: I found her

Nancy: I took the wedding ring off of my hand

Lee: Before I put my arms around her

We lay and let our hearts take wings

Nancy: And fly across the Seine 

Lee: When she left the tears she cried

Nancy: He thought were just the rain

Lee: Oo-oh Paris Summer

Nancy: Whooo-oa Paris Summer
