BTD (which had the best single run imo): Only change would be including Radio as a single.

 

Paradise: Ride, Body Electric, Cola, American

 

UV: West Coast, Brooklyn Baby, Money Power Glory, Sad Girl, possibly Pretty When You Cry

 

HM: Music to Watch Boys to, High By the Beach, Art Deco, The Blackest Day, Salvatore

In no specific order:

 

 

Born to Die

Would have kept this the same but made either Radio, Without You or Diet Mountain Dew as another single (even though none of these are her best material), but since these are all quite "mainstream" sounding & repetitive, I think they would have done quite well as singles.

 

 

Paradise

Even though I think Cola is the worst song on Paradise (personally I much prefer her more personal and emotional songs), I think it had the potential to cause controversy and be a good single to attract more attention to Lana. I think the singles picked were quite good though.

 

 

Ultraviolence

My personal favourite single run - every song selected was absolutely perfect, ESPECIALLY West Coast - such an intense, dramatic song!! I personally feel, however, that Florida Kilos should have been on the deluxe after The Other Woman, as it could have been a perfect single since it's so upbeat but still has that unique Lana feel about it.

 

 

Honeymoon

This is where I feel the singles were selected most poorly. High By The Beach was a good choice as a single since it's quite a mainstream song & obviously attracted a bit of attention, as she hadn't had a very "mainstream" sounding song like this since Born to Die. Terrence Loves You and Honeymoon, while being two of my favourite tracks off of the album, were kind of horrible single choices, as neither really attracted much attention at all, apart from her already committed fanbase. I feel like Music To Watch Boys To was a good single, it had more of a beat unlike TLY/HM, and the video was brilliant (despite the lack of colour). Salvatore should have been a single for sure (hoping she will release it as a single soon, possibly with a video, hopefully!) Freak or Art Deco could be really good singles as well!

Born To Die: Pretty Happy with the singles to be honest, definatley keep the same song and maybe add more videos.

Video Games

Blue Jeans

Born To Die

Paradise:

Ride

American

Gods & Monsters

 

Ultraviolence:

West Coast 

Shades Of Cool

Brooklyn Baby

Old Money

Black Beauty - This would have been a great closer on the era I think

 

Honeymoon:

If it were 1966-1970, Lana probably would have had 12 #1 songs already no matter which singles were released from these albums outdoing Petula (Pet) Clark.

 

the thing is, if it were she might have had #1songs with the earlier stuff, and well, if that happened, would Lana even have existed

 

Shades of Burnt Norton donchathink? 

 

I would release Burnt Norton as a single.

 

I would have released American as a single, and in the video inferred that it was Barack Obama she was singing about (much like National Anthem was JFK)

 

It is too bad Lana's songs weren't used in 11-22-1963, the Stephen King adaptation starring James Franco coming out shortly, which is about time travel back to save

JFK and why it can't happen.

 

Can you imagine Pretty when you cry/Is this Happiness as a single. 

 

Old Money

 

Hell, what I want is a Broadway Musical some day. (perhaps one for every album). Followed by a movie of each.


Lana is our modern day Edith Piaf. Totally unique. a mixture of Brian WIlson Roy Orbison, Leonard Cohen, Gram Parsons, Elton & Bernie. Born to Die/Paradise is comparable to Elton's Captain Fantastic. All the records need to be listened whole. Waiting for a box set vinyl of all 400 songs not on any lp
