@BlackoutZone Can we see an early draft/tracklist of UV at any point in its creation? Feel free to redact any unknown titles - I’m just dying to see what the “project” looked like at an earlier point in time even if it’s just a change in order

What. The. Fuck.

Btw I remember Lana once mentioned a specific number of songs she did with Dan Auerbach (and it was, of course, a larger number than what was released), but I’ve never been able to find the interview again. It was sometime around UV’s release obv and I believe it was radio, but I could be wrong about that. I recall the number being 12 or 14 but I could be wrong about that also

@BlackoutZone Is there any info you can offer about Yes To Heaven and its various versions? I don’t even have a specific question but any clarity would be appreciated as we seem to get new info about the alleged years/producers every other month A timeline briefly breaking down all the leaked versions + (publicly known) unleaked versions would be great if possible!

Supermarket is from ESS too. It’s not a “2021 rework” like some have reported; Supermarket comes from the same sessions as Secrets demo, Blue, Chocolate Whip, Treat U Right, and probably some others I’m forgetting, from 2018

There was that leaked text document about Charli’s writing sessions in 2015 and Sophie is not credited for Miami or We Don’t Need A Reason. I always personally felt like World’s Best Dancer was Sophie’s attempt to rework the instrumental for WDNAR so it makes sense if she wasn’t involved with WDNAR. Also, there is no such thing as a Sophie version of Bel Air! BOTH leaked versions of Charli’s Bel Air are co-produced by Jarrad Rogers, Patrik Berger and John Hill.

Pretty sure BlackoutZone said both Money Power Glory and Old Money are 2012, from before Paradise was released.

Yeah I don’t think it was ever posted here but BlackoutZone talked about this, sometime last year I THINK (unfortunately ATRL was reset so I can’t find the post anymore). But he basically talked about how she was hard at work on the follow up to BTD when they decided to put Paradise together as an EP (and we know Lana herself said she wanted it to be an album but was told it was too soon). They basically formed Paradise using songs she already had, and then continued on with that same pool of songs for the next full-length (which would end up being Ultraviolence). Not sure if what I’m saying makes sense but what BOZ was trying to clarify is that Paradise outtakes and Ultraviolence outtakes are essentially the same thing and there’s no real point trying to differentiate them, especially when some songs on UV are “older” than Paradise (Old Money and MPG, for example). He also talked about how Wild One was on an early UV draft titled as ‘Mike’ and that there’s no real “Honeymoon version” - if I’m quoting BOZ correctly here, he said something along the lines of, for some reason, Lana/her team reached out to Justin Parker regarding the song that year and that’s when Parker decide to slightly update the mix, hence the two very similar mixes we have, and the change in title to “Wild One”. He also said that “Lake Placid” was an early title for I Don’t Wanna Go/Tonight/Black Leather Moonlight. Maybe someone has a screenshot of his post in case I’m remembering any details wrong, but this is what I recall. Edit: and I think he also said what was discussed on the previous page, that Tropico was an early working title for the actual album, not an EP

Ok sorry, follow up question... But is there any chance you have non-Soundcloud rips for Disco Sweat and No You that you could share with us? That's still all we have nearly two years after they leaked!

Tbh I don’t even think that’s a real thing

01. Bounce 02. Daddy Knows 03. Good Girls 04. This Is The Moment 05. What You Gonna Do Now 06. Girls Night Out 07. Waterfall 08. Heartbeat 09. Die 4 10. Down Like Woah 11. Queen Lizzy 12. Can You Hear Me 13. I Wanna Be With U Important to note that this is called a draft because this is just a list of songs Charli put together as a quick idea for her manager and it’s not considered an official tracklist for the album

Appreciate it, tysm!! Kinda makes sense actually. I mean these are ALL rough demos but IATK is particularly rough so I’m kinda glad it wasn’t on there tbh

@111 ok sir maybe I asked too many questions above but can you please just say the track #s for No You, Disco Sweat, and I Am The Keeper?

I’m still confused about this also because I’ve seen so many conflicting answers but I don’t think anyone reliable has confirmed anything. There’s also another song called ‘my type’ that leaked at the same time as those 3. @111 Any insight you could give us on these?

I remember the lyric being debated when we first heard the snippet but I think it’s “making this whole party end”, she’s just saying “whole” kinda weird?

Y’all she talked about doing an “addition” aka a re-release in her Complex cover story after UV: ”like I’ve actually started thinking conceptually that I have this addition, an addition to this record that could come really easily. That hasn't happened in a long time. Not since I wrote that Paradise addition to Born to Die, which I really loved.” https://www.complex.com/covers/lana-del-rey-interview-against-the-grain-2014-cover-story/

Can you pleeeeease share the track numbers for the other leaked tracks (Disco Sweat, No You, I Am The Keeper, and any others we already have)? What about the demos for Julien and This Is What They Say? Was ‘Sails’ on there since she wrote it alongside Tenderly? And maybe the total number of tracks so we can start to put an “album” together?

Do we have OG files for Vultures and White Dior? I kinda stopped keeping up her with unreleased for a while, but now I’m dying to make the Devil In Paradise EP with “deluxe” tracks And do any of y’all have a cute cover for the EP? Or a HQ version of the rumoured cover (the one that’s a lil different from the DIP single cover)?

20 Steps should’ve made it to Pop 2 tbh

I didn’t know what project it would fit in but yeah I totally agree. I always felt like that song would be an instant viral hit on Tik Tok lol Like what I said for Happy Now, maybe a polished Dreams could’ve been a huge banger moment on Crash

Random discussion topic here: If Charli continued the trend of repurposing tracks from the album-in-a-day project, what would you like to have been released? I feel like Everything would’ve been a cute moment on HIFN, especially lyrically For Crash, Happy Now would’ve been great but only if it had been polished and pop-ified. I could totally hear it with a glossy production

Loooooove, thank you!! I think I’m also using another one of that king’s artworks in my library

Btw any of y’all have any cute covers for the 24 Hour album? Never really found one I loved when the album first leaked so would appreciate any and all options!!

Btw idk if anyone pointed this out but on the 9th, her UK store sent an email about the vinyl being low in stock and in the previews, you can see the tracklist is indeed on the mock-ups (except for the store exclusive, which would match how the front cover is more lowkey also), but it’s way too pixelated to make out

This is definitely a very unpopular opinion but I always kind of thought it would’ve been nice for XCX World to have been repurposed in 2018 with some newer tracks instead of the monthly singles campaign which I loved but also left me wanting more. Like obviously I wish XCX World was released as it was but if it HAD to be killed, it would’ve been cool to see tracks like CTMP, GNO, Bounce, No Angel, IWBWU etc mixed with 5ITM, Focus, Next Life, 1000 Times, 1999, White Mercedes… stuff like that Sure, it isn’t exactly Charli at her most inventive but I think it would’ve been a solid pop record and almost a pre-cursor to Crash in terms of being more streamlined musically. Self-titled just didn’t age well for me and I could certainly live without it!
