LDR Album Process Discussion

[Let the Light In 18,857]

This thread feels like early (or late) Christmas

@BlackoutZone sorry if you're being bombarded with questions  do you know anything about the honeymoon demos titled pink flamingos, ice cream, and get high? we also found out about those from honeymouns

[Yes To Heaven 3,731]

@BlackoutZone are "Pink Flamingos", "Ice Cream" and "Get High" demos of the released songs off the Honeymoon songs or just title ideas?

at this point she has to drop a UV 10th anniversary edition with a full side B as disc 2, there's so many gems scrapped from it  

I'm not joking when I say this is one of my biggest dream

i wanna cry from how much tea we are getting tonight goooorls its hype and its REAL

[Venice Peach 54,376]

I don't mind LMLYLAW getting simpler production, the biggest loss for me is the fact that she picked the best part of the song and relegated it to the bridge 

 

That melody deserves to be played at least twice on the track not once (even though it has so much bridge energy that I can't imagine it as a prechorus unless it was rerecorded and the delivery was different ofc)

is the leaked version of i don't wanna go from 2012? also, what years are each 3 versions of i talk to jesus?  

Yeah I Don't Wanna Go / Tonight / Black Leather Moonlight (as annoying as it sounds, all 3 titles are equally correct, you can use whichever one you want) that leaked is from mid 2012, then it was rewritten and re-produced as Lake Placid for Tropico/UV

 

ITTJ is another essay-type post I don't have energy for right now. Not gonna lie I hate that song, never put full effort to piece its timeline together

Does @BlackoutZone knows why Lana released this version of West Coast first, but ended up putting this other mix on the album and also used it for the music video? I've been curious about this since 2014. Thought I'd ask since you're here. 

The simple answer to this is that Rob Orton, UV's mixing engineer, was still mixing the tracks at the time of WC release and they just attached earlier mix to it. Pretty sure it was even released on streaming later as Rob Orton mix or something

@BlackoutZoneis there anything from Paradise-UV sessions that we’d totally not expect? Or do we have a general sense of what went on?

[Dark Angel 203,377]

the fact that a song which says "i don't wanna go home" which is also about a mysterious, edgy love-interest is also titled lake placid... that song just got a lot more deep...

[Deleted Member 23,729]

i kind of can rest easier now though knowing that the other 3 songs out of the 13 Dan did do are just demos likely to the same par as the MPG demo which i just mentioned not liking very much. was bittersweet to say the least  RIP Fine China “final”, YTH “final”, and ITTJ “final”

Thank you!! Yeah the song is now listed as "Rob Orton" mix, I always wondered why she didn't keep the original mix, the guitars and vocals sound clearler on that version. 

Thank you, thank you. 🙏

A follow up to this: Boz can you give us any hints of an unleaked song or two that we’d absolutely go feral for? Maybe you can spill on your favorite unleaked? 

[ImenaOphelia 9,663]

too much info my brain's gonna boil (give us more tho)

[Eugene 26,672]

lanapedia editors will have a lot of work to do. 

[West Coast 45,897]

Cannot wait for someone to make a masterpost with the full timeline.

I don't recall Get High, but yes the other 2 are definitely real OG titles of the songs so Get High might as well be
