The Siren

Her last record was released 18 months ago, since then she has released 2 covers, 2 songs for soundtracks, 1 official single and about 70 songs have leaked. fucking eternity? 

Pitchfork wrote an article about the Ultraviolence tracklist.
 

and I remember that The Other Woman by Nina Simone was on her Mulberry mixtape, I just listened to the song again earlier. It will be amazing

Vinyl configuration:
 
Vinyl 1 Side A:
Cruel World, Ultraviolence, Shades of Cool
 
Vinyl 1 Side B:
Brooklyn Baby, West Coast, Sad Girl
 
Vinyl 2 Side A:
Pretty When I Cry, Money Power Glory, Fucked My Way Up To The Top, Old Money
 
Vinyl 2 Side B:
The Other Woman, Black Beauty, Guns & Roses, Florida Kilos
 
 
And yeah, I'd bet cake that The Other Woman is a cover. Track length almost identical.

March, 2011 

The tracklist looks great, I'm very intrigued by the song titles, "Fucked My Way" sounds like it's going to be Ultraviolence's Cola. Really excited for the songs, I'm glad we got the lengths of the tracks, too-- some of them are quite long, and Cruel World sounds like it's going to be a long epic introduction to Ultraviolence. Someone should update the first post with the song lengths:
 
Cruel World (6:38)
Ultraviolence (4:09)
Shades of Cool (5:40)
Brooklyn Baby (5:49)
West Coast (4:15)
Sad Girl (5:17)
Pretty When You Cry (3:52)
Money Power Glory (4:28)
Fucked My Way Up To The Top (3:30)
Old Money (4:29)
The Other Woman (2:58)
-
Black Beauty (5:13)
Guns and Roses (4:29)
Florida Kilos (4:14)
 
Some of the songs are surprisingly long, like Cruel World, Shades of Cool and Brooklyn Baby while we have a song just under 3 minutes. I'm glad she put Black Beauty on the album, and I won't even be mad if it sounds the same as the demo we have. It's still such a beautiful and stunning song, I'm a little sad Angels Forever didn't make the cut, but I understand why she didn't put it in. What if Guns and Roses was actually Roses? and Florida Kilos actually Kill Kill like someone said earlier?
 
Anyway, I'm excited we finally have something to talk about! Also who confirmed the June 13th release date? It's Friday the 13th, how -almost- tacky, it's cute.

I did not expect Ultraviolence to be a song on the record so yes lol
omg sadgurl1847

Ahhhh, I can't get over that Cruel World is 6 mins long and it's Lanas favourite. 

Love the title fucked my way to the top.. It reminds me of an interview where she was asked the strangest place she ever wrote a song and she said the office of a record executive, when she was making out with him. Sad girl sounds so tumblr-y lol like those sadgurl1847 urls but I'm trying to reserve judgement..maybe she took inspiration from the doors' "unhappy girl"

if i could pull my head away from the rest of my body i would be extremely excited 
 
i mean i am excited but i'm also like ok lana u fucking crackhead 

Maybe FMWUTTT doesn't mean as in fame, maybe it means as in like top 'Queen' like she likes to call herself a lot?
Or to the top of someone's attentions? It might not mean what it first appears to mean

Old Money is finally coming into light. I'm pissing myself with excitement. It's been registered for a year. I wonder if it would have made the album if it were already leaked. (I guess BB is an exception because she mentioned the song by name in an interview)

at people so certain of their skepticism of a tracklisting that was on fucking Amazon. I mean, unless there's a history here I don't know about I would expect they would only put up official information.

at people bothered by the title "Fucked My Way Up to the Top". First of all, don't judge it until you hear it. Second, she's made comments in interviews several times before (and in some other song lyrics) hinting she may have tried that approach (with disappointing results), so I'm surprised anyone's surprised by that title.
 
Hmm, I better start preparing a podcast segment for "The Other Woman" in case it's a Nina Simone cover.
 
Also,   at my prescience. 

right ? it could be a song about how she fucked her way up a mountain 

Ultraviolence is being released on Friday the 13th....
Coincidence? I think not.

Get familiar with these abbreviations

Maybe she's saying she fucked herself over while trying to make it to the top? Or she's using it in an allegorical way?

plot twist: Fucked My Way To The Top is So Legit Part II

i don't think anyone was expecting titles laced with optimism but these are just so obvious ... and i know she's smarter than that. 
 
but as long as the music is as good as west coast i'll deal with it 

The length of these tracks are so long!!
 
Now I get why there're only 11 tracks standard.
 
 
OMFG!! I'm so excited!!!
 

Also confirmed: Ultraviolence is being released on the 13th of June.
From the same website as the screenshot above was taken.

Me over the last three minutes...
