    Pls post this writeup on /r/popheads on Reddit, it's really interesting.

    Don’t forget that note on the cover art of OHDH that we’ll probably never get an explanation of...
     
    I love Mistake so much! It’s easily my top pick in terms of old songs I’d like to see be reworked. It’s so simply written but in a good way.

    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

    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

    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.

    Literally none of CLXII is about finding yourself or the cover or anything, too. Which is frustrating because it's something thag really resonated with me with CLXI. The whole plot or whatever disappeared completely and feeling X doesn't really mean much anymore.  
    I'm not really sure what she's going for anymore. I think the most frustrating things are the explanation videos because they all say the same thing "I used to be into things that were bad for me and I didn't gaf and this is about dark things but I'm not going to talk about them so it's a metaphor for love." She has an interesting story to tell and she's capable of serious lyricism... so where is it? She's gone from being mysterious in a tantalizing way to literally just not being present

    Maybe she just forgot there was another song appart from TLIV to be released

     
    And I mean, at first "TLIV" could be because of Valentine's, yeah, but Vintage is also a really romantic song and I would say way more..."valentine's day" ok we all know she wanted to play the "anti game" with releasing the sad song

    It's just a diet that Allie herself decided to take to extremes. I actually read the book and it's a pretty reasonable plant based diet. The sugar part is not even crazy, you only cut it for like a month or two and reintroduce it slowly. Allie's just dramatic with it
