What Lana songs would fit other artists had she sold it to them?

[slang 1,509]

There was a thread way way back about making up fake news about LDR (it was during a "drought"). There I posted about a tribute album of unreleased tracks being covered by others to cheer her up on the occasion of Lorde's meteoric rise, so some of my favorite picks from that fictional album may be relevant. 

 

     Paradise -- Katy Perry

     Jealous Girl or Hit and Run -- Lady Gaga 

     Go Go Dancer -- Kesha

     Making Out -- Sheryl Crow

     Damn You -- Mariah Carey

     Backfire -- Adele

     Noir -- Kate Bush

 

 I'll add some new ones:

    Pretty Baby -- Jewel  (I'd actually like to know how LDR would deal with that song now).

    Resistance -- Ariana Grande (flawless singer but stiff, this song might loosen her up a bit).

    1949 -- Taylor Swift

paris for melanie martinez maybe 

[graham4anything 2,859]

I left out Lin Manuel Miranda doing any song he chose

 

as I have said before Lin and Lana should do Broadway adaptions on all her albums

 

I predict a Broadway type production for Lana in the future. (she can always start out in theatre in California, then London, then NYC)

Pawn Shop Blues - Hope Sandoval

 

Noir - Courtney Love

 

Kill Kill - Velvet Underground & Nico

 

Million Dollar Man - Amy Winehouse

           i would fucking KILL to hear this. Nico's vocals and the Velvet Underground sound... ugNGH

Serial Killer - Kehlani

BTD - Ratsey

I can see Coco Morier singing lots of Lana's AKA and prior material.

 

The first time i heard Ambulance by Coco Morier, someone had pitched it on youtube and titled it as an unreleased Lana song and I believed it for like a YEAR, because it actually sounded very Lizzy Grantish. So listening to Coco's songs reminds me a little bit of early Lana Del Rey and I think she could pull off a few songs like Backfire, Come When You Call Me, Break my Fall

National Anthem - Nicki Minaj 

[Ultra Violet 18,427]

National Anthem - Nicki Minaj 

I can actually imagine that, but shed have to be featuring someone else to sing the chorus, like Charlie xcx? 

 

(dont hate me for just putting it out there x) id rather not think about it either!

Nicki Minaj - National Anthem (Feat. Charlie XCX)

I could see Lady Gaga doing Paradise and maybe Azealia Banks doing OTTR (obviously hers would be a lot faster)

[baddisease 15,890]

Velvet Crowbar - Sky Ferreira

Meet Me In The Pale Moonlight - Donna Summer, ABBA, or Dennis Parker

[evilentity 13,303]

  Pretty Baby -- Jewel  (I'd actually like to know how LDR would deal with that song now).

Pretty much all of her May Jailer/Sirens-era stuff -- Jewel

 

Girl was seriously channeling and influenced by her at that time.

[Wild One 3,305]

Hit and Run + Behind Closed Doors for Britney Spears

 

Edit:

omg! Just saw me and @ had the same opinion on those 2 songs..

What a coincidence haha.

[californianfreak 3,479]

Wayamaya - The Beach Boys

I know its the other way round but I can imagine 'City of Stars' from La La Land being sold to Lana for her to sing too!

[True Romance 6,187]

National Anthem - Halsey 

Playground - Nicki Minaj

 

Without You - Melanie Martinez

 

Summertime Sadness - Hayley Kiyoko

 

Gods And Monsters - Banks

 

Pawn Shop Blues - Nicole Dollanganger

 

Put Me In A Movie - Beach House

[ParadiseFreak 676]

I've always liked this version of Ride, maybe even more than Lana's original.

Is This Happiness - Nicole Dollanganger 

[jw123 5]

National Anthem - Nicki Minaj
