Crazy Husband Thief

I really wanna know what the track list / album title of the Steven Mertens AKA was like. All his versions of the songs are superior.

Not this That was by far the most offensive rework she has ever done. The lyrics of the new version sucked so bad and you can even hear the reverb of the old vocal track before the chorus. 💀

She should really consider adding outtakes or popular unreleased songs as b-sides to her singles.

So she can make money of the songs that are illegally being downloaded and used in TikTok videos? So she can be credited for the stuff that going viral? She revisits unleaked material for every new album. 😂💀

I know I've been saying this a lot of times already but Lana does not work/think in b-sides/outtakes. We have so much proof of her going back to things from seemingly unrelated "eras" for new projects…doing reworks, rewrites, etc. It’s virtually impossible to structure the majority of her unreleased catalogue into eras or outtakes. She began recording material for and from Born to Die in 2007 technically. Paradise, Ultraviolence and Honeymoon recording sessions have also extremely blurry time lines. Personally, I think most of the songs from 2009-2012 could work within the context of a compilation and everything from 2012-2016. I think sonically, her turning points are: 2009 (post-AKA - pre-BTD) 2011 (BTD - LFL) 2017 (NFR - OB)

Also: Not everyone knows how to properly access them and what we're doing here is still piracy lowkey. 😅 She's not seeing any money from the actual work she put into creating these songs. That is why we should care. In addition to that, I want people to know that it’s Lana who is behind all those amazing songs that go viral on TikTok. She deserves to get acknowledged for the bops she has created and never got to release because of fucking Video Games!

Many artists have released anthology albums and material with outtakes in the past. It’s not exactly a new concept. However, with Lana it’s the case that she is missing out on a lot of revenue, money and recognition. Her leaked material has viral potential. It could elevate her popularity a lot and she would get more streams = more money. There is absolutely no reason why they shouldn’t do it.

I have all the STINT demos listed as 2015

Say No to Say Yes to Heaven. It’s the uglier title. Lana also can’t be trusted with some of her deranged titles.

It looks...really bad.

Oh lord…I was in the same positions as you a while ago. It was dreadful.

Omg Coca Cola is probably my favourite Laptop demo. I still have hope that there might be a better version of Television Heaven.

But all of this (along with the very confusing timeline) still sounds like speculation. 💀

Interesting! Thank you. Where was this confirmed or mentioned? Do we know the producers of the other songs as well?

It must have been scrapped in November 2012 already. She literally had THIS as the description of the now archived/deleted Bel Air visualizer uploaded on November 8, 2012 (shortly before she talked about her plans to male a short film for G&M and Bel Air): "i lost my reputation, i forgot my truth. But i have my beauty and i have my youth. Tropico the film, coming next year".

That’s what I use the playlist option for. In fact, I have been compiling all the post Paradise/pre UV stuff into a Paradise sister album since 2013 but at some point it didn’t sound quite right anymore.

A few people have asked me how I managed to get my unreleased collection to look like this: It‘s pretty easy. (I‘m on my phone right now, so I had to use pictures from google) When editing the song info on Apple's music app, there are two arrows next to the "song" field. Once you click that, it enables use of "work and movement", meaning that you can sort an album into sections. This is also very helpful when you have dual albums that are technically split into two parts with different titles like Tove Lo's Lady Wood. It helps me accurately sort her unreleased material by year, even recording sessions would be possible. That way, songs that were most likely recorded with the same group of people… for the same project… at the same time get grouped together. If I knew all the recording dates, I‘d even change the track list according to dates. I've tried sorting them into mixtapes previously, which was fun but just never an accurate display of her work progress imo. In the comments field, I usually add additional info such as recording dates or OG tags. Basically all the info I don’t want to get lost. "Work" is the name of the section or disc. "(Movement) name" is the song title. It’s important that both, the regular view and the work/movement view have the same date in the track and disc number fields below, otherwise things could get messed up. Other than that, it is really easy and so so helpful. In addition to that, I have made playlists for my personal mixtapes, where I create albums for songs that belong to certain recording sessions or scrapped projects.

This, along with the confusing timeline of Paradise's release, TROPICO film announcement, etc. It all doesn’t quite add up. Why would she announce a film (clearly meant for Paradise songs) before working on a seemingly unrelated album with the same title with a tracklist composed of unfinished leftovers, and what else… I know Lana has a weird way of thinking but that doesn’t even make sense for someone like her.

That original cover gives me PTSD. 💀

No.

Except, it kinda is and you are pretty much speculating yourself. 💀

Most people believe it replaced BAR.

I agree.

We missed out on that RnB Baby Doll album to be honest.

Honestly...this song was so fucking shit. You could tell she kinda didn't know/enjoy what she was doing here. Uninspired lyrics and the chorus? A joke.
