Black Roses

I honestly agree with you. I feel like she could easily top Cry Baby if she doesn't hold back from writing darker songs with even deeper meaning. The whole Cry Baby album felt watered down compared to her unreleased material just because she had to make it fit a story.

I've read about it recently and how she went for "dollhouse ep" instead of this acoustic project. Too bad the character development really ended up taking over the music and lyrics in general. Not "BAD" but you guys get it lol.
 
This second record seems to be way more "free" to put some new experiences with the whole city aesthetic. 

A lot of her acoustic songs are so good. I remember her announcing an EP after she did the Voice but of course it got scrapped in favor of Cry Baby.

One thing I gotta praise her is the way she decided to left some good songs out of Cry Baby just because they didn't "fit the storyline" that she created (and goes really "solid" btw). I think the bad side is the way it all kinda backfired for some people that find the music to be just bland
 
 
But her lyrics like Night Mime and Bombs are just really deep and such beautiful cuts. They're somehow a nice hybrid of the whole "aesthetic" but her vision over the real world around us\everybody

Literally no one is gonna pay for these songs. Can someone just go ahead and leak them already?

That person is going out of their way to sell these songs it's embarrassing

Oh it stinks so bad in here! A poverty rat!

this is why we should never let unreleased material get in the hands of 10 year olds

LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Girl... and the worst part is, the 12 year old fans will really run to their parents credit cards for this

Stevie Nicks ruined BPBP. Her Spongebob sounding vocals make the rest of the song unlistenable.

Already better than the version that got released 

We still got a few months at the very least boo. And another few years for the unedited version

Beautiful People; Original Meaning
 
Response to her notorious Guardian interview fiasco. Putting her trust into the interviewer and he takes that to his advantage and makes an extremely controversial comment into the headline. The song’s chorus details the public’s view on the situation. The verses go ultra Lana Del Rey purposely to combat the comments about her songwriting, possibly too much as she describes abuse from her lover.
 
“You get so mad when I complain” The public gets mad at her for saying what she had said.
“You think I’m crazy but” While they get mad, they also don’t see why she’s hurt.
“I hear them talk, they say my name” The press, critics, public talk all about her.
 
Then in the chorus we switch to the POV of the public.
“All these beautiful people with beautiful problems//God knows I’ve got them” Celebrites with problems that normal people face everyday, the public doesn’t recognize that celebrities can have real problems and they discard it as them being dramatic.
“She wants to die, then she should fucking try” GP’s opinion on the situation, If Lana really wants to die then she should do it instead of complaining.
 
Then in the bridge background vocals come in “I can tell you what I really want”, she’s going telling the GP she doesn’t really want to die, but it’s a cry for help.
 
I won’t get into the verses since they don’t seem to have much to do with the general message other than being sarcastic. But the original song just goes to show how deeply she was affected by the Guardian interview and how much trust she had lost in interviewers and the public’s opinion on her. Even now today she’s obviously still affected, recording every interview, being cautious about what she speaks about and never letting herself feel comfortable in interviews anymore. Fuck the Guardian guy, It makes me so so so SO angry how he claimed to be a fan and to let her wall down and completely stabbed her in the back for a headline. Even going as far as leaking the audio when she tried to save herself. I hope he’s happy his favorite artist will never ever have love for him again

As much as i love the first verse of the studio BPBP, this would have hit so much harder and probably would have been so much better. Stop denying it. We want controversial Lana back.
Only reading the lyrics is way different to hearing how she would have delivered it vocally. And this was written way before other LFL songs that disappointed most.
 
Like imagine reading the Ultraviolence verse 1 lyrics before hearing the song. They suck but her delivery with vocals and instrumentals makes it one of her best
