Underrated Lana Songs

Recommended Posts

For me, it's Wild at Heart no doubt

 

This track is Lana at her finest. It has all the brilliance of anything on NFR - yet it got zero attention. Not a single, no hype, super low streaming numbers, never performed live. I'll never understand why. The jack and coke extended lyric is particularly masterful.

 

American also comes to mind. A glorious, lush song that's quintessentially LDR, yet nobody ever talks about, it never gets played, and I don't think she's ever performed it live.

 

What's your pick(s)?

Is This Happiness/Flipside because of their availability :crai: 

holy shit the way how people pay so little attention to Is This Happiness is a crime. this is one of her top best songs ever. but i also don't want it to be viral either. i want it to be in a cult status tbh

the duo of Is This Happiness and Flipside. Not my favorites but I feel that if they were up on streaming services they would be fan favorites from Ultraviolence


archiving any ldr-related stuff I can find (like, literally)

Gods & Monsters did really well though for a song off the second half of an EP.

 

To have the great Jessica Lange sing your song in a hit series by Ryan Murphy - that's major success. I know it has a large following too.

 

I agree with you on The greatest. It has had success, but it deserves a lot more. Hoping that "the greatest" on Billie's upcoming album is a cover of that song.

big eyes and i can fly (and almost every other non-album song)

This… Once Upon a Dream and Wait For Life are other examples

 

Actually the whole honeymoon album is very underrated also

i’m not thinking of any one song in particular but i swear some songs are overlooked but if they were unreleased they would be huge

 

like bel air or guns and roses maybe

Yess! Guns and roses is not appreciated enough. I adore the uneasy atmosphere in this song and how 'raw' it sounds
