Funeral Pyre (6:32) Ultraviolence sessions
Written in a psychedelic (in an LSD induced trip) hallucination, a scrapped concept detailing the death of a loved one around the time of a failed wedding (Fine China). Uses a church/funeral organ piano as the main instrument with additional percussion with and heavy drums and a deeply buried/muffled electric guitar. Includes an instrumental break of approximately 2 and a half minutes of growing intensity before the bridge kicks in full of emotions at about the 4:38 mark. The final vocal line is echoed into a fade out. Meant to be the closing track of a standard edition. For deluxe versions, the fade out is exchanged for a crossfade with the following song. 
 
Valley of Forgotten Roses (4:11) Ultraviolence sessions / Honeymoon sessions
Deluxe track 1 following Funeral Pyre. Written inspired by a dream following the memory of the person who passed away (as detailed in the above concept) using the "valley of Forgotten Roses" as a way to describe the feeling of forgetting each memory (each rose) of said dead person (valley = vast quantity). Slightly more upbeat than Funeral Pyre, similar sound but it's more consistent rather than a gradual growth in intensity. The organ piano is toned down a few notches, the electric guitar is traded for an acoustic guitar and is not muffled/buried. Later revisited for a Honeymoon "redux" version a la Driving in Cars with Boys 2014 version for a tour mix.

Fingertips (4:30) Blue Banisters sessions / Ocean Blvd sessions
Arcadia very rough/early finished concept. Very sexy lyrics detailing her lover tracing her body with his fingertips, describing her body with metaphors and similes. More in the soundscape of The Trio interlude. Was later re-written as a piano Ballad Arcadia, took the The Trio interlude out of the demo, and the lyrics were revisited and tangentially completely rewritten for the Ocean Blvd track.
 
Black Palm Trees (2:22) AKA sessions
Another rendition of Trash Magic, may also have what can be considered as an early lyric concept for TV in Black & White. 
 
Plain Jane (1:16) 2005 laptop demo
Very AKA esque lyric about not feeling good enough for whoever she's dating at the time.

If only Lana had this level of delusion

america capitalising on healthcare is a big reason 

The statement saying that it didn’t “align with Catholic healing principles”  how the hell is religiously sponsored healthcare even legal? 

Absolutely disgusting

This is why there shouldn't be religious hospitals. Fuck St. Joseph.

Lana was onto something when she said the quote in my signature 

stills from the seminal 1953 film titled he says, "are you famous?" - i was once a b-movie actress, has-been, but never was

"I'm glamorous, famous, notorious, dangerous but you're crazy"


I don't know what I'm looking at 

This took me out  

"can I please go back to singing about being embodied, feeling beautiful by being in love even if the relationship is not perfect, or dancing for money - or whatever I want - without being crucified or saying I'm glamorizing abuse?"
 

 
 
I tried to copy in the whole QFTC but it crashed. Guess it can't handle all that chaotic energy 

Beautiful! These should be official single covers
