@, here's what I've found/assumed/speculated (hopefully, more knowledgeable members can expand on or correct this): 
 
-the track we know as "Trash Magic" was listed on Lana's Myspace as "Miss America". However, in gig reviews, it was referred to as "Trash Magic" and Lana herself referred to it in a Youtube comment as both "Trash Magic" and "Miss America". Therefore, "Trash Magic" is probably the title to go with, as it's supported by gig reviews and Lana herself. 
 
-"Puppy Love"/"Marilyn Monroe" is totally up to your discretion, I'd say. It's registered as "Marilyn Monroe", with "Puppy Love" as an alternate title. It may be worth saying, though, that Lana referred to it as "Puppy Love" in a Facebook post, so I'd personally go with "Marilyn Monroe (Puppy Love)" as the title. 
 
-The demo of "Maha Maha" was built around an instrumental by Princess Superstar called "Bollywood Hawaii in Space" and leaked as "Bollywood Hawaii"-- so, "Bollywood Hawaii" is probably the name to go with. 
 
-"Is It Wrong" is registered as "Is It Wrong" with BMI, but as "Is It Wrong?" with the Harry Fox Agency, so either is valid. Personally, I'd probably take the BMI title of "Is It Wrong", but that's just me. 
 
-No clue on "Hit & Run". 
 
-The demo of "Hundred Dollar Bill" was leaked as "C-Note", I'm pretty sure. The 4:01 version is the final, titled "Hundred Dollar Bill". (also interesting to note that Lana, performing at the Slipper Room in 2009, referred to the song as "Nothing More Gorgeous Than a Hundred Dollar Bill".)
 
Hope this helps!

For unreleased correct song names:
 
is it ??
Trash Magic
Trash (Magic)   or
Trash
 
is it??
Puppy Love (Marilyn Monroe)
Marilyn Monroe (Puppy Love)
Puppy Love             or
Marilyn Monroe
 
is it:
Bollywood Hawaii         or
Maha Maha (Demo)
  is it:
Wrong
Is It Wrong      or
Is It Wrong?
 
is it:
Hit and Run
Hit It and Run      or
Hit & Run
 
and what is it with C-Note and Hundred Dollar Bill (and the demo) what are the correct names for those two?

Working on a sirens concept. Fuckin around w these awful quality scans

You all been waiting with bated breath (meaning just @)
 
So here's where I'm @ with my Lana library right now.
 
 
 
 
All very cute. Should account for placement of Joshy and I, 1949, Roses, and Caught You Boy. They stayed conceptually the same but I tried to go even more "album-y" with all of them lol. For instance, I tried to pair songs from the same songwriting sessions within the same albums where possible (but Justin Parker contributes to too many disparate types of songs smh--tell me how I'm supposed to have an album with Dum Dum, Puppy Love, and Velvet Crowbar all in one). Tell me your recommendations and shit.
 
A handful of songs are missing bc of my other major revamp in the last round of leaks: I wanted to give the demos some more attention than just shoving them in an unorganized demo album. First, I came up with this three-discer that goes through chronologically, but in hopefully a compelling way:
 
 
 
 
And yes, all my B-sides covers are incredibly off lol, but I don't have the ability to make new ones to my standard and no one just makes a simple companion cover these days.

I did not realize this. 
This is how it happened in my head:
 
Rick: Who can we get to do background vocals?
Lana: I know your wife and she wouldn't mind.

NATIONAL ANTHEM

 

i did this one

The performance of "Little Girls/Put Me in a Movie" at the Mercury Lounge is stellar.   
I think it definitely may be one of my favorite Lana moments ever when she slips into a higher register during that performance and sings the: 
"Lights, camera, action/He didn't know he'd have this much fun"-- and I wish I knew the term for this, but she sings those lines differently and it gives me chills. That, and when she sings the "come on, you know you like little girls" at about 1:51, it's otherworldly. 

this iconic scam, when will joanne the scammer

Literally, I did nothing abnormal; I wasn't even mad she didn't want to take a photo. I literally did not even VOCALIZE my desire for a photo, I just wrote it on the polaroid (which was pretty cute in my opinion). I was content just talking to her for a moment. I didn't even take any creeper photos! What the fuck! Calling me a stalker, lmao, fuck off.
 
Also, to reiterate, I waited until she was done with her entire lunch and I met her AS she was leaving.
SHE did not mind us talking to her, the cabana cafe manager had an issue. (The workers insinuated that we could go up to her if we wanted, just that they wouldn't facilitate any interaction).

Don't worry about the people berating you, you didn't do anything abnormal. Sometimes people imposing on her has resulted in photos, sometimes it doesn't. Given how she appears to behave with fans at venues it wasn't unreasonable for you to request a photograph. Plenty of people have seen her and hesitated to approach and probably still regret it to this day, we all know it can pay off to be a little pushy in these situations.

I met Lana randomly, at the Beverly Hills Hotel Cabana Cafe on Thursday May 12.
I was in LA for a few concerts for my favorite singer, Lights, and it turned into a vacation. On that Thursday, May 12th, my friends and I had breakfast at the Beverly Hills Hotel Fountain Coffee Room. It was reaalll nice. Then I asked the front desk if someone could give us a tour of the hotel, so we could take pictures by the most scenic spots. Since I'm an architecture student, I just mention that and they happily show us the architectural highlights.
 
We saw the Frank Sinatra suite, which is about $15,000 a night and I saw a bag of weed on the table inside...it was beautiful. I said out loud, I bet Lana would love this room.
We went down by the poolside and I took some polaroids and photos and we hung out for a minute just to enjoy.

Lana Del Rey walks past us and I immediately recognize her and say "Lana!" and my legs were just shaking. My friend Rachel did not even notice until a few seconds later (and she didn't hear me say Lana, so either Lana ignored me or she didn't hear me) and I was just SHOOK. I could not believe that this is where I would meet Lana. Our tour guide told us he was responsible for us so that it would be inappropriate for me to go talk to her under his supervision, but he left us a couple minutes later and told us we could do whatever...haha.
 
We sat at a table 20 feet from LDR, drinking lemonade and eating chips and salsa. I didn't take any creeper photos because I thought that would be weird and she was just having lunch with her friend. On the polaroid I took of the pool and cabanas, I wrote "swimming pool glimmering darling... We'd love to take a polaroid with you" and asked the waitress to pass it off to which she said no, they can't do that. So we waited for Lana to finish her lunch, and then she took a picture with her friend.
 
When Lana got up, so did we, and as she walked towards us, I gave her the polaroid and said it had been a dream to always meet her. She looked so beautiful and so sweet. The manager (restaurant manager) then came and interrupted and said he was responsible for her and that he needed to protect her and she kept brushing him off. The first thing she said to us was "I'm not really taking pictures today." That was kind of weird because she had just taken one with her friend. This other girl and her mom tried to take a picture of her and the manager got in front of the camera, and Lana said no pictures again. She asked me if I wanted her to keep the polaroid still and I said um yeah it's for you lol. She hugged me and my two friends, as well as this other girl and asked us where we were from, where we had seen her... So she showed some sort of interest but she didn't really engage in any conversation, at all. Like "Where are you from?" "Chicago" "Oh cool" Since we couldn't take any pictures with her, I showed her a portrait I had drawn of her way back, and her friend said I was very talented and I don't know if Lana really said anything besides that it looked good. We hugged her again and then she asked us "Are you leaving?" when we were already on the stairs and on our way out.. haha
 
A few minutes later she passed us in the hotel hallway and said "How are you?" and kept walking without stopping.
 
Overall it was kinda bizarre and I have no pictures to show for this encounter, but hey, I met Lana Del Rey in LA. This experience was so authentic and strange I loved it tbh. I am glad I got to meet her, and hug her twice, it was surreal. She looked beautiful, with her chipped tooth and she smelled so sweet.

I like this a lot
