Theory: The Grants is the Yes To Heaven we have all been asking for.
Background: Recorded in 2013-2014, Yes To Heaven was initially thought to be intended for Ultraviolence. When it was not put on the record, a version was made for Honeymoon—this is the only ‘true’ full leaked version we have of the track. It was also repurposed for Chemtrails Over The Country Club and possibly Blue Banisters. This 2020-2021 version has been known to have lyrical changes, so it isn’t too far off to think that it could have evolved into The Grants- much like how Valley Of The Dolls evolved into Norman fucking Rockwell. The COTCC version was also rumoured to be titled ‘Heavenly Hell,’ and references to heaven and hell can be found in The Grants.
