Which one of these (if any, actually) do you guys think won't make the final cut: Abracadabra, Notorious Being, Dance in the Shadow, Mustang or Girlfriend?

Angels of death, past life When was the last time you gave a middle finger to someone?

When we get Fine China (Rick Nowels version) through Lana herself on Lasso and the people hoarding it for years will have to face the fact that all they've been cruely teasing and keeping for themselves all this time is now nothing but some worthless crappy quality unmastered mp3.

Times when scrapping a song was the right choice

To me, A&W, Candy Necklace, Zodiac and the interludes belong to the same chapter/soundscape. The sequence is 1. American Whore/Jimmy 2. Judah Smith Interlude 3. Candy Necklace (and/or Zodiac) 4. Jon Baptiste Interlude While they're (Zodiac and CN) different enough songs, they still share some similarities, the eerieness, the darkness, the references, they're jazz/classical influenced piano ballads, they do belong together on the same hypothetical record, but the thing with OB is that it's an album that is divided both thematically and sonically almost in a cinematic/theatral way (acts), each chapter has its sound and themes and they effectively work together because every song is there for a reason (even the pop stuff in the end serves their own purpose) and no chapter overstays its welcome. Putting Zodiac and Candy Necklace back to back on the album would sound very repetitive and just wouldn't add that much cause many of the themes in Zodiac are already touched on by other tracks (A&W, JS interlude, Fingertips). So that's why I think replacing Zodiac with Candy Necklace was the right move, even if I love it and would love if Lana found a way to get it officially released (either in a deluxe or standalone or in a new record). I have a hard time trying to figure out a way in which those sessions could've resulted in one single masterpiece album. The songs are just that good and they are very diverse. To me, Paradise-Tropico-UV were her creative peak pre-2018. However, the way the songs got released, the albums that ended up being is where the problems is to me. There are so many concepts, looking back at those songs, it feels like the whole thing was a materialized brainstorming. You have Christian inspired baroque pop, Laurel Canyon singer songwriter folk stuff, soft alternative rock, heavier alternative rock, alternative pop, piano ballads... the material is so big and heterogenic that she could've easily made 3-4 different albums with different vibes and sounds and aesthetics at the time. It's just so fascinating. I hope one day we finally get all the demos and outtakes so I can make my own ideal Lana Del Rey albums with the songs. -
To me, HM is the best album when it comes to the final cut/song selection. Out of all the songs made before and during the album sessions, she really picked not the best but the ones that both actually worked for the album's concept, were individually great and added something to the narrative/flow/worldbuilding. So every scrap was worth it. Also, replacing Zodiac with Candy Necklace was the right choice. I love Zodiac but Candy Necklace showed a new side of the album and even if she kept both, Zodiac would've ended up as a filler.

Do you guys know anything similar to Abracadabra? Yk, the dark electronic vibes, agressive unhinged vocals (Partynauseous also fits the bill but is not really creepy or dark), overall weird/creepy factor...
