What would you change about Lana's albums/eras?

[Venice Jesus Whore 4,463]

More dedication to creating visual themes for each album. BTD set the bar high, and then it got worse with each album. None of her videos since BTD compare to them, and the way her videos, photography, music style, and style in person came altogether was amazing. I miss the visionary (literally, visuals) she used to be. UV definitely had a visual theme that fit the music style (the photography and her style changed), but the videos weren't that great imo.

have Best American Record be the album title and be on the album as the closer (along with Yosemite towards the start of the album)

I'm still waiting for that Dark Paradise Music Video also that unreleased original Ultraviolence music video and lets not forget Pretty When you Cry homemade music video! If she would have had released the original Ultraviolence music video then we would of had new music video material for the Honeymoon era like a different video for MTWTBT and Freak so that would mean better promo for that Era.

Music Video = New Photoshoot which also means different Album Cover.

BTD - I wouldve had her not sell LiB to lionsgate so it could be on paradise or a future album   

 

PD - I wouldve had her make a video for American

 

UV - I would've had her include I Talk To Jesus and Yes To Heaven and Fine China instead of Florida Kilos, Guns n Roses, and Black Beauty tbh. I would've prevented Lou Reed from having a heart attack   and then I would've made her give us the BB, PWYC, and WC videos.

 

HM - MORE VIDEOS!!! THE SHORT FILM WE DIDN'T GET OF HER ON A TOUR BUS. I also would've had her upload the HM vid to her official channel and I would've had her put a deluxe out with Wild One, Life Is Beautiful and some other song

 

LFL - I would've made her keep the original theme and prevented anything from it from leaking       so that BAR, Yosemite and others could all be on the record and we wouldn't be stuck with tracks like Coachella and IMF and Summer Bummer etc. 

 

LDR6 - I don't want her to take another break, especially if she's only gonna be touring on festivals and not an official tour     I want an album in 2018-19

For LFL, I wouldve just wanted a more concrete and less flexible concept and visual, it clearly changed a few times, which is why - as decently cohesive as the album is sonically, the first half seems much less important to me compared to what she said in interviews back in February to like May about the theme of the record. I would've had 3 more acoustic songs rather than Summer Bummer, Groupie Love, and In My Feelings. I think Cherry, WM, and 13 Beaches fit quite nicely on the record even if I'm not a huge fan of White Mustang. 

 

I don't have a problem with a flexible concept in general, but I feel like what was originally talked around or alluded to seemed just a bit more interesting than what we got. And I could be totally wrong, some of this is just conjecture, but I def. think a more folksy-acoustic, 60s Shangri-Las, Joan Baez inspired record would've been more cohesive then some summery bops and then the remnants of that idea. I think Coachella's creation however was bound to happen, regardless of the leaks and push up of Love because she was inspired by an event she was certainly going to go to either way. If anything, maybe the production would've been different though. In the tracklisting, it fits very well where it does sonically, even though to me It just feels weird as a light-trap inspired groove instead of an acoustic/folky mid tempo.. Maybe the production was what would make the most sense on the record at that point? Again, total conjecture here. I don't mind if I'm wrong.
