Yes To Heaven 3,700 Posted January 4, 2023 12 hours ago, lanaismamom said: well im done! Hide contents 1) INTRO BOZ: Before I answer anything, I just wanted to say that at the end of the day I am not Lana, I am not in her head, I was not in the room when these songs were made and there is always a tiny bit of chance that I am wrong. Everything I'm revealing is based on (sometimes years of researching) things I listened to, read about or heard from people who worked with her directly. I do find timeliness, demos, drafts etc very fascinating as it gives you some additional cool insight of what was happening behind the scenes so I'll happily join the discussions here 2)TRNS-AM BOZ: Starting with the name, I personally never heard of "Trans-Am" being referenced, whether as a song title, album title or some project. Maybe it was a code name Lana used, maybe something insignificant. I did however see Tropico being used interchangeably as LP2/Second studio album form late 2012. I suspect that Lana had a visual idea for it from the start and already was in talks to make a movie for it in early stages. Maybe it went as far as her signing some agreements or label scheduling some timelines that had to be met in order to make the visual happen, but when it approached Lana might have decided she is not ready with the record at all and needs more time to finish it so they made ultimate decision to use the visual for Paradise edition instead. Since the name Tropico was more attached to the visual theme than the album she was making, she changed the album name and kept Tropico for the movie 3) PHOTO OF TRACKLIST 27 JANUARY 2013 BOZ: What I see here and what seems to make sense by what existed in January 2013 already: 1. Old Money? 2. Black Beauty? 3. ?? 4. Lake Placid 5. Summertime 6. Melancholia 7. Jesus (ITTJ) 8. Pink Champagne - this is the original name of Let Me Love You Like A Woman demo 9. Elvis 10. Earthquakes and further I can't read, but it Guns n Roses, Money Power Glory and maybe Cherry Blossom I'd expect to be on such draft from that time as well 4) WHY PARADISE TRACKS WERENT INCLUDED IN 27 JANUARY 2013 TRACKLIST BOZ: Because it was not planned. She wanted the visual to be made for songs only from the new record. I guess she wanted to launch the album alongside, but when she realized the album was not ready they just decided to use it for Paradise era and create different visuals for LP2 when it's all done. 5) ELVIS "is elvis a rework of the 2008 laptop demo, or a new song?" BOZ: Never heard about Elvis being actually reworked, but it's a song Lana remembered if that makes sense. Also wasn't it used for some movie a few years ago, that Lana acknowledged as well? They surely used the "final" existing version there "yeah, there's no knowledge of elvis being re-recorded or any studio version of it existing, but it's interesting that it's there, i was just wondering if you knew if it was a new song or if it was the "elvis" we already had, if this is the already-leaked elvis, it could've been a different, more complete version, the version that was used in that documentary is the laptop demo" BOZ: I think this is something she could have planned, but never executed. Even though the picture was from 2013 the notepad writing, could have been a bit older, but either way at that time some of the other songs only existed as voice memos/laptop demos as well. So she just put together what she liked and planned to finish and that's something she kept changing a lot further on 6) TALKING LIKE AN ANSWERING MACHINE BOZ: Talking like an Answering Machine is a bit of a mystery to me as well, but there seems to be a higher chance that it's real rather than that it's not 7) MELANCHOLIA BOZ: Melancholia uses seemingly the same instrumentation as UV and some parts of the melody, but outside of that it's pretty much a very different song, very rough though. 8) AVE MARIA BOZ: Lana did record Ave Maria, it was considered for UV even "after Tropico" 9) PINK CHAMPAGNE (LET ME LOVE YOU LIKE A WOMAN ULTRAVIOLENCE VERSION) BOZ: -bridge originally was pre-chorus -completely reworked and stripped from its original cinematic psychedelic production 10) FINE CHINA, YES TO HEAVEN, YOUR GIRL, I TALK TO JESUS - I'm gonna do a whole post on Yes To Heaven, Fine China and Your Girl, but it's gonna be an essay, cause there is a lot to say, especially in relation to the Eclipse leaked files... I need some time to put it together - ITTJ is another essay-type post I don't have energy for right now 11) DAN AUERBACH SESSIONS -Dan Auerbach never produced SYTH or Fine China -Dan did demos of Pretty When You Cry and Guns & Roses 12) YES TO HEAVEN, FINE CHINA, YOUR GIRL FINALS? BOZ: I'm not sure about YTH, but Fine China went as far as being mixed by Rob Orton and it's a Rick Nowels version. Same with Your Girl But as soon as she came back to work on Honeymoon the first person to touch SYTH again was Rick so you could say the last version of YTH for UV was Rick's (per leaked files though - James Ford version is the latest, from April 2014 I think) 13) I DONT WANNA GO/LAKE PLACID BOZ: 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 14) WEST COAST (ROB ORTON MIX) "why Lana released this (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o3SqUUoJjW8) version of West Coast first, but ended up putting this other mix (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SNiInqEFdQk) on the album and also used it for the music video?" BOZ: 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 15) PINK FLAMINGOS, GET HIGH, ICE CREAM "are "Pink Flamingos", "Ice Cream" and "Get High" demos of the released songs off the Honeymoon songs or just title ideas?" BOZ: 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 16) WEST COAST (RICK NOWELS/RADIO MIX VERSION) BOZ: Yes and it's not only that, it's kinda a pattern throughout her career! Each time Lana wrote a song with Rick, but it was released with/alongside someone else's production, but she still liked the demo, she would finish it with Rick and release as radio mix. 17) IN JUNE 2014 INTERVIEW LANA SAID "RECORD" - WAS SHE REFERRED TO A SONG OR AN ALBUM/EP? BOZ: Pretty sure that what she said was "I have an idea for this record called Music to Watch Boys to", but I don't know in what context she meant that, I would say it was about the song, but please note that first actual recording sessions for HM with Rick started in September 2014, so everything prior was just ideas 18) DARK PARADISE/SUMMERTIME SADNESS RADIO MIXES a.k.a. RICK NOWELS FINALS BOZ: Radio mixes of Dark Paradise and Summertime Sadness are both finished Rick demos (alos demo versions for these versions exist) 19) IF YOU LIE DOWN WITH ME BOZ: It was properly reworked for Blue Banisters 20) 2013 and 2015 SOUNDCHECKS BOZ: I know nothing about this, same with that St. Petersburg soundcheck song. I tried to find out what this was all about, but never reached anything. What I did learn however is that Lana happens to improvise random things during soundchecks as a form of warm up and I think these might be those cases. But I really don't know 21) AXL ROSE HUSBAND "apart from Elvis and the ones we already knew of, does Lana ‘remember’ (as you put it) any of her unreleased songs pre-2012?" BOZ: hmm Axl Rose Husband! And as you know Methamphetamines turned into Old Money 22) LFL OUTTAKES "would you be able to spill about witchy lfl outtakes?" BOZ: What I'll say tho... if you are to manifest some amazing outtakes. Manifest LFL outtakes. 23) WEST COAST LYRICS ""He's crazy y Cubano como yo my love" or "como yo la la"" BOZ: He's crazy y Cubano como yo my love 24) JAMIE XX BOZ: Jamie xx did a demo of Old Money as well as Black Beauty in 2013. Sadly it doesn't seem like they worked on original material together 25) +100 SONGS BOZ: any claims that Lana made 100+ songs for any album are just wrong 26) NEON SHADOWS BOZ: Yeah this surely (edited) must be wrong (registered), never heard about it 27) REWORKED SONGS "Do we have "already leaked" songs that we don't know were considered for any albums? Like I know we already have a shit ton of btd outtakes but I'm guessing there are LOTS of btd outtakes that we already have but we don't even know they're btd outtakes" BOZ: there are a few, but some would literally collapse on the thought that she reworked that so I'd rather you just be surprised if something leaks one day 28) NEW TITLE Earthquakes (supposedly late 2012-early 2013) 29) "129 TRACKS FOR LUST FOR LIFE" MYSTERY BOZ: -129 tracks refers to amount of audio tracks in the song's session as someone explained. But while we are on the topic - LFL, the song, has 323 mixes which i think is the most for any Lana song ever -that song went through a LOT and we have like.. close to none of it 30) MIXES FOR RICK NOWELS' SONGS BOZ: Y&B, Dark Paradise, even SYTH among some that got beyond 100. But as you noted, some of those are nearly identical, Rick and his engineers are just very strict and every single slightest change gets noted as new mix. Not all of them even have to be exported 31) RECORDING DATES BOZ: California and Crazy for You are from the very first sessions for HM in 2014, IIDY is however from 2015 already I believe 32) OFF TO THE RACES DEMO BOZ: This is low key my most wanted Lana thing of all time and it might be lost 33) ON UFB, LANA AND BARRIE BOZ: -There was a period of time when Lana and Barrie would just... travel, everywhere. I think they would visit random studios writing/recording songs there with whoever was available. It's hard to pinpoint what was made by who beyond them 2. I think they would sometimes just leave the songs in the studio even. UFB was never planned to be included on UV, they just made it for fun, they were in love. Whoever was the working engineer in the NightBird studios the day they recorded it is probably the song's only co-producer. -Lana and Barrie definitely recorded more songs together 34) WAS WANDERLUST FROM NFR! SESSIONS REWOKED FOR CHEMTRAILS OVER THE COUNTRY CLUB? BOZ: No and I'm pretty sure none of those NFR/COCC era "demos" that leaked in a past few days are real at all 35) SOMETHING REAL? BOZ (commenting Say Yes to Heaven's theory Something Real might be not real thing): You are almost right, but please wait for tomorrow I will explain it more as well what we found out a bit earlier Hide contents 1) MORRICONE AND PIANO THEME BOZ: Both are just concept instrumentals for Lana that she never recorded vocals for 2) BORN TO DIE RE-ISSUE BOZ said that there were supposed re-issue of BTD with some outtakes with Damn You and Hollywood's Dead Finals Versions and probably some more 3) PARADISE BOZ: -Paradise initially started as album, not EP -Paradise EP was finished circa late September, I think that's when mixing and mastering happened 4) JFK BOZ: JFK has newer unleaked version (said to have "just 1 change") made after Paradise sessions (late 2012 or early 2013), but she decided to stick with JFK earlier (leaked) version 5) SHADES OF COOL FIRST VERSION BOZ: Shades of Cool has "scratchy" november 2013 version (not the rick nowels final) (the first made) 6) MIKE BOZ: Mike (Wild One) was on first UV drafts 7) WILD ONE HONEYMOON VERSION BOZ said on ATRL that there's no really Wild One Honeymoon Version, "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”" 8)SAY YES TO HEAVEN JAMES FORD VERSION James Ford's Version of Say Yes to Heaven, previously believed to be unleaked and made in 2017, made in early 2014; it's unknown if song was ever meant for Chemtrails Over the Country Club and TLSP Collaboration Album 9) from other reliable members -leaked versions of JFK, Hollywood, Tonight are all done by July 2012 and made together with Young and Beautiful, Body Electric and American Demos by july 2012 -Say Yes to Heaven was continually worked on since its creation in 2013 by Rick and other producers, so there are plenty more versions that were considered for basically every album (there are other mixes from UV, Honeymoon and LFL eras) but I haven't seen or heard anything about another STINT one -Hollywood was worked on in 2013 and one of the "heavier" tracks, considered for Ultraviolence after Tropico(by @Unknown) -Fake Diamond and Dreamgirl were produced in the same session, Fake Diamond's instrumental was done by a relatively unknown producer.. Dreamgirl used a pitched instrumental by someone i forgot the name There was also a full folder of other beats Fake Diamond was done on February 28th, 2011. Dreamgirl was done March 1st (same producer, for Dreamgirl only vocals.) Playing Dangerous and Bad Boy were done sometime in August 2010 alongside another song I don't know much abt and a rerecording of Bad Boy.. these last two I never got access to unfortunately D: Mads Louis Hauge and Phil Thornalley did Playing Dangerous and Bad Boy in the same session, which featured a very early version of the latter. The unknown song and rerecorded Bad Boy were done in the same session maybe a few days after the song was intended to have a string section. (by @Say Yes to Heaven) -A duplicate session was labeled 'Send to Dan Heath.' or something along those lines, but we dont know if he did anything on it in the end(by @misslonaxo) -There are 392 mixes of Groupie Love, 42 mixes of Heroin and 7 mixes of Change (by @bunoner) 9.1) NEW SONGS Unknown song from Playing Dangerous/Bad Boy Session Later version 2 of Bad Boy someone should edit the wikia that YTH 3:35 is James Ford version 7 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BlackoutZone 4,701 Posted January 4, 2023 There is something that's been bugging me that I'm surprised nobody picked up before, but the French Restaurant song that leaked might not be an original version of it, but a piano rework Chris Braide did in 2021 alongside new version of Damn You that leaked as "alternate final". So I'm pretty confident a real 2011 version of French Restaurant with original production exists as well. 66 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
