The folk thing would get me scared but Tomorrow Never Came is a pretty song. I don't know how it would be to have a fulled albun tho, might get "boring" quickly.
 
On the other hand the "eXperimental-new-age-synth" record would be a dream come tru but it's just like agaisn't the stuff that Lana usually do so lol just dreaming

Nowadays it's Marina Diamandis. She ditched us.

boi i want some immortal stems

Tbh I feel like it's not impossible since we know that songs from EH have been going back & forth (just like the stems & etc, I mean probably there's more saved coming from the same place that happened in 2012 ).
 
They released a lot of photo outtakes (which ok is easier to do but still), these stems... 

Just found old posts on diamonds garden and right now I think I'll delete it nnn

I just got in to all of it, but I've been stuck on Diamondgarden bc some stupid human identification thing was broken and I couldn't sign up and I wanted to die

I remember joining Diamonds Garden and checking it out few times... it was pretty fun but then Lanaboards 

The Diamonds and Shakira Zeta

Ok after all the discussion about eras let's get something serious
 
"Marina & The Diamonds" or "Marina and The Diamonds" ?

I'm sure someone said this already but I've been re-listening to Madonna's "Ray of Light" and I could see Lana doing this style - really cinematic with some trip electronica. Like, the song "Frozen" would sound awesome and feels like a natural progression... her style, but in a new direction.
 
She definitely won't, but so many songs I could see her doing - and the electronica production sounded so cool. 

Yes

Also any good soul can explain me what is "TV Track" ? I remember trying to find what it is since there's something like that for Gods & Monsters stems but I pretty much still not knowing what it really is
 
Instrumental with Backing Vocals?

The starring roles stems leaking right after someone asked on this thread oh wow.
couldn't even download in full yet but let's see

I Die everytime I think that Alexandra was, for real, the Center-Piece for the project and it ended nowhere in the tracklist
 
I mean... the whole thing about "CLX II is about finding yourself"...
 

 
that's why we NEVER create a song too early and listen to it a lot, because we'll get bored of it even if it's the theme of your album

The era that just keeps on giving. God bless Electra Heart.

In my visions the whole CLX-II kinda went "all wrong" with different scenarios.
 
First of all, it was meant to be released in 2016. Period.
It was pretty clear that the original campaign was set to release Old Habits Die Hard as the lead, followed by Too Much To Dream and then All The Rage. No way she would create the whole "Unsolved" ~~mess~~ (I kinda like it but It could have been better), drop all these songs, PROMOTE THEM (Ok she really didn't perform or got radio airplay, still, she created music videos & etc). Like what's the point releasing stand alone singles for some Spotify Playlist.
 
I think that after Too Much To Dream (which was like, the first Unsolved song?), the decided to "try" this experiment of lowkey releasing the singles and some demos etc to pick 'em up later for the album. It was more likely she had a direction ready to go about the album.
 
One of the resons why I believe that the unsolved songs were the actual album singles before the album is the fact that right when she dropped OHDH and created a competition and the prize was "A snippet for a song that will be on CLX II" (I'm almost sure the winner got to hear Alexandra snippet, I might ask it someday cuz I kinda "know" (I've seen them in person, does it count? nn) the winners). She also performed Alexandra live by the end of 2015. Onde again, she knew where it was meant to be going. 
 
 
It's pretty clear she had a mindset, songs and concepts ready but somehow threw all away to produce new music. This is also what our sis Melting Days shared of his talk with 24\7 and how she had "many uncompleted demos and just went by the mainstream songs".
 
Remember that by the time she released  All The Rage, before the song actually came out, a "remix" (I think it was actually the one that was meant to be sent to radio ???) leaked. She not only created the official music video with Drag-Queen-Superstar Violet but also that acoustic piano version video... she really pushed the song. (Also throwback to the fact the hinted before even releasing that's so us as a Unsolved song, she would make "everything to make the song big if we helped").
 
 
Then 2017 started. February and... ah... her website.
The countdown. The Snippets.... someway the site bug and revealing the whole thing before the right time
AND THEN OUR SIS ANNOUNCES THAT THE ALBUM WOULD TAKE 5 MORE MONTHS TO COME. By the time the album came I think part of the "HYPE" following around her from the Unsolved songs or the CLXI release was already lost. But still.
 
I don't think CLX II is nowhere next being a failure or mistake or anything because it also gave her many good things: 2 "high budget" music videos, she was able to perform outside the Americas, the album itself caught some people's attention... it def shows way more positive points than negative ones. And of course it could have been "better" but I mean... she did so many cool interviews and some really amazing lives.
 
 
I just hope that by the next record she'll be like in a perfect set-up to put her visions on it and there won't be any "label issues" or anything (Which we saw that happened this time, once why the vinyl release etc...........) and I think she really doing it right. I really believe she'll get "bigger" than she is today, not anything like international stardoom-the-new-lady-gaga but something like "Grimes" realness, yeah.

She hates Electra Heart the same way she was unsatisfied with The Family Jewels and probably will find something bad about Froot and keep on the cycle going. Let's not forget all the "Electra Throwbacks" last year hunnies
 
I think it was probably frustrating as a whole project because the label couldn't keep her vision going. Marina was about to create a whole visual album... Beyoncé took notes

That Mashup is actually...Flawless??????
I guess I need Marina's Ultraviolence????? What??
