You did help to quench the thirst back then.

That's poetry Poetry and its pure form. Too ahead of time. The way she was talking about Lands Of 1000 Fires back in 2014? She's too powerful. But most of the UV outtakes are "just fine". I believe Fine China stands out, but I wouldn't trade anything on the album for any of the songs that couldn't make the cut. But it would have been nice on a different setting like BB.

You spoiled kids have to UNDERSTAND what is was back then when we had NOTHING but thousand of Born To Die outtakes and pitch songs that were being served to people like CHERYL, not even LIZZY material was so present and we were HAUNTED by knowing that "Say Yes to Heaven" "Fine China" "I Talk To Jesus" and GODDAMN "YOUR GIRL" that was so thirsted that it was a banned word with that long ass "according to the laws of satan there's no way a Bee should be able to fuck around" replacement were real songs from her MASTERPIECE ULTRAVIOLENCE. We had NOTHING. Do not DISRESPECT "Yes To Heaven" like this! Actually tonight you should get on your knees and thank GOD we were able to get through and maybe PRAY that someday we'll have SAY YES TO HEAVEN (MAXI SINGLE) featuring every encarnation of this song + Official acapella so you can make your own version of it and you'll STREAM IT as a sign of gratitude. But yes, actually "Fine China" is the crown jewel from these sessions. Your Girl flopped so hard lmao. Fine China served delicate melody, cutting-glass lyrics, storytelling, fragile vocals all wrapped with that gentle production. She had enough to grab everybody by their necks with "I wore diamonds for the birth of your baby, for the birth of your son \ on the same day my husband to be, packed his things to run". These are Oscar-worthy lyrics, there's a whole movie within these 4 lines.

Preacher's Daughter is... my AOTY. How fucking great it is. And she's just charming\funny\iconic. It's easy to stan.

Neil is so fucking daddy like...fucking iconic and lowkey underrated. His work is unique. His work with Lana is legendary even if she prefers to take selfies with her iphone 6.

what's the tea. Is it cocoNut flavored?

I think the Vinyl isn't really a priority. If the album is actually "done", it is probably in line already to get pressed. But really don't think they'll be making it a priority to make it "ready on release" since smaller artists keep getting pushed. But that could be a possibility too since we know Good Sis loves a messy long rollout.
-
Seeing the Sky thread locked for the 5th time reminds me when the mess used to happen in this thread instead. And endless l*aks. Great Times. Happy she's fine and there's music coming. Would be surprised if there's no single in the upcoming 3 months.
-
Wasn't Don't Forger (Fire) and, like, Descending or Love Street or whatever supposed to be some sort of "double a-side"? And then she changed her mind\campaigned for Downhill Lullaby? I'm almost sure she decided to go with Downhill Lullaby bcus of Music Video. I'm 90% sure she mentioned something about wanting to make a music video for it, just like Guardian, and throwing it as a Lead Single was probably the only chance of Capitol funding any kind of promo (........the video.........) instead of leaving it for latter and knowing it wasn't going to happen. She also mentioned something like confidence over the "pop singles" that would come later, so it makes sense she tried to have her way with the lead and then hoped for the best with the upcoming ones lol. And then of course everything derailed. As usual. At this point is really feels like tug of war from both of them. But still doesn't sound easy to let the rope go away unless she really decides to retire and go away.
-
It's so good help. Way better than Don't Forget. Well. At this point, yeah, we do have a Masochism EP.
-
I really think she just managed to fix her life to a comfortable stage where she really doesn't have much to say about herself anymore and decided to go for these political takes because "well the gays DID beg for Savage as a single but I couldn't make it so... let's give them 10x". It's no surprise that most of the best material from Ancient Dreams came from her very singular perspective of life (and personal topics after break up) instead of trying to show some understanding-we're-human-connected. Sometimes it sounds like she's ashamed of being more "quirky" and "singular" and really just wants the most commom sense takes to lead the way. Love+Fear is bland but there's enough material (including a lot of the outtakes) to fit a bopfest without cringing. She really should have picked a better concept and cover. Really not sure how There's Nothing Wrong With You and If It's Worth It didn't make the cut but True did. By the way: someone pls l*ak Beautiful World. I'm forever grateful for Electra Heart and I'm sure she put on a fight to make it happen. She already mentioned how the label despised the idea of "Bubblegum Bitch" as a single, and no surprise Sex Yeah, Valley Of The Dolls and others probably all fall in the same category of "not commercially viable". Lies, How To Be a Heartbreaker (ugh), Power & Control and Primadonna were great single choices (even if they didn't bother to actually send them to radio).
-
She's serving VOCALS on that snippet yes - I'm actually excited for December 28th now. There's so much mess potential to unleash. I also think it's quite cute to make a meet up out of nowhere lol. Playing hypothetical game, Descending around March followed by All My Lovers Die + Album Pre-Order in May. Release in late Summer\Early Fall. THAT'S a rollout. NO MORE FUCKING AROUND LET'S GOOOO!

Catching up - Need the Livestream of Sky showing up infront of Capitol with sign and no one else - I lost it with the girl having the same... ~aesthetic on the last page

Cola Music Video when????????

I agree with half posts. I do wish she would open up. Just throw shit on the fan and make it clear, say the names and the whole story. That's the only way anyone can actually support her and buy the story and make the media aware. Being vague "Some people aren't helping" "I'm waiting for some answers" and this kind of shit doesn't... make sense. Even Halsey staging that TikTok drama (that pretty much triggered her the fuck up, since she first announced the Don't Forget music video for the same day as "So Good" was being released) should have been enough for her to just blow things out of water instead of the "wtf but I am the original tortured little girl???" If Capitol isn't willing to let her do her work, if they're not letting her express herself, then let it be clear as day. She's not releasing music anyway, at least make hell on earth for them. For someone with one album, 10 years ago, there's still a fanbase and media support. Sometimes I also do think she wants a Fiona Apple\Extraordinary Machine moment.

Haters Anonymous is fucking good idc. The way the lyrics are like... that. But then the chorus comes and That sparkling explosion ughhh YEEESSSSSSS Subject? Skank is everywhere!

Girl really isn't a live-act and really should be selling these "Night Time My Time 9th Anniversary Green Socks (limited edition)". This Summer Festival campaign was the worst decision, but wouldn't be too shocked since they (she) probably needs some extra $$ to really finish ""the album"" (which was hinted to be "close to done" on these intervews) and extra stuff like Music Video(s) (which she also hinted as something she really thrives\wanted to make and then budget wasn't coming along). Would be nice to have another single out before the end of the year but don't think that's happening. At least there's still time for the occasional "WINTER (knife knife)" post. Streaming this masterpiece in the meanwhile

Ya mad, rancid girl? I have absolutely NO CLUE of why some of you get TRIGGERED when discussing someone with 1 (one) album and that has been just one giant example of label fuckery and mismanagement. An easy-and-quick Google can show you how some mammoths from the Music Industry were trapped in label hell for YEARS, including Sky Ferreira's own Fairy Godmother Michael Jackson; Then we have much more recent cases like JoJo, Kesha, Tinashe, Charli XCX and many other girls who signed contracts when they were underage and were put through HELL for no other reason than... you know, "because we can. You should have read the lines!" It's pretty clear that any initial plan to sell Sky as a major pop artist backfired and, by that point (and I'm talking about 2011. 11 Years Ago) they already invested some great Million$$ on her. They literally had a full album ready for release, 3 music videos, she wasn't working with your next door Soundcloud producer but Dallas Austin and Bloodshy & Avant. It wasn't some sort of "She's cute, we're gonna give this bedroompop girl a chance!", No, it's a fact that SKY FERREIRA was a project that Capitol failed to manage and sell. Once the singles didn't stick, the debut album was shelved, she was put on the refrigerator and no one knew what to do anymore. I guess if you're soooooo entitled about label politics, you know that Major Labels are almost like Loans and artists are obligated to refund every penny invested on the process + have to make sure there's PROFIT. Sky Ferreira wasn't profitable, and then she started to take control and make sure that her music was aligned to her own taste, which meant a left turn over the sound instead of bright-shiny-electropop. We heard from the horse's mouth that she had to foot the bill over Night Time My Time, and the lack of investment from Label resulted in no singles being promoted apart from You're Not the One and I Blame Myself (which, shocking, weren't pushed over Radio). The album was released without physical copies ready on the release date, and most of the material was released in batches mostly done over demand (so, yes, you can't buy a "Night Time My Time" Vinyl without giving your mortgage away because they were limited pressing in 2014 and then nothing else). She also said that the album being critically acclaimed and adored wasn't something that impressed them, or made them bown down and say "Ok, you were right", but more likely made them resentful that 21yo. Girl managed to put an album out without their hands. If that's not lowkey personal.... And of course, as my original post stated, there's no way she is a saint and shouldn't be blamed. Her "endless perfectionism" is still aggravating the process. But after all this time, she's been the one who actually put stuff on her soundcloud and performed unreleased content. She can be the one editing the music video just because they actually said "You know what? We are not paying anyone anymore to edit this just because you don't like it, lol" and that still doesn't mean she'll be able to release it without propper approval. She also said the music video has been done for 3 (over 4 now) months, so maybe you should send Capitol a DM on twitter asking where is it, since you're besties. I swear it's fucking psychotic how some of you really want to undermine what it is like to be under a corporation and try to bash artists, mostly women, without giving it a second thought. --- In other news, Happy Birthday Night Time My Time!! Few artists have such a bulletproof Debut album. Maybe because it was like the third album or so in the making, but you get it.

It's so awkard to see the whole promo blitz they arranged. All these magazines and interviews (saying the same thing over and over again; music video being finished, album coming this year) were probably done all at same time, with some type of schedule for Summer promo and album probably coming in late fall\early winter. And then nothing happened... again. I can just imagine the chaos that runs across Capitol whenever "Sky Ferreira" is mentioned. At this point it's pretty clear that it is something personal between them and she's trapped. And of course she probably has her own blame around it, but no way the label is a saint. I can only imagine it takes so long to get things moving that she gets cold feet and keeps re-starting her process and trying other stuff without finishing and releasing the old ones. No way "Masochism" is the same album she envisioned back in 2014, and I'm just surprised we didn't go through 3 name changes already.

checking this thread and GARDEN SNIPPET? leak PHANTOM you cowards
-
omg the Scrobbles leak... the nostalgia rush I got from this. Great job. I believe the album will be right around the corner but can see it being released only in like... around summer. Or late Spring. She'll probably drop a single for the Tove tour and they'll be working the logistics to make sure she can bag some sales on the first week.
-
just fucking realized this is one of the soundcloud snippets The way she's serving even with the most basic bops like... it's insane. Is there a list of everything we have from Cry Baby and Masochism sessions?
-
I think "original version of Video Games" might be about the music video, since she had 2 (?) versions that had to be removed because of copyrighted footage. You have an interesting question but It's also a tricky one. It's hard to keep track of everything she self-released because of the many names she used and there's stuff we're just not sure; like, back in her myspace, there was a song called "W" that people assumed to be Wayamaya. On that same MySpace, there was "For Charlie" (unleaked), "Miss America" (Trash Magic), "Jump" and "Kill Kill" back in 2008.
-
ok nevermind I got it messed up. Always thought the "Put my lips on you" snippet was the title track, but actually messsed it up with "Hold my tongue until I choke" (?) or whatever. Don't think they're the same song. It's pretty annoying the whole start-stop nature of the campaign. But I AM looking forward what she's saying next, because right now everything hinted to "the album is actually done" so when she comes with another quick single in 2024 with "The album is halfway done! WINTER (knife emoji)"...
-
I'm obsessed with some of these. Some of my hot takes: -> Lina Morgana never stood a chance and Rob Fusari songs fucking suck, God knows how she managed to snatch Paparazzi and Beautiful Dirty Rich from his garage band hands -> Chromatica Ball is really battling to be her best tour even with the most awkward setlist on papper, yet managed to make it work and a full consive show without her usual meandering shenanigans. The videos and outfits are telling the whole thing without her needing to explain what is happening.
