Anonymcomenter 4,675 Posted February 28, 2023 6 minutes ago, the ocean said: i actually think that has to be works really well as a closer - no other changes to the album just adding on HTB as #14 like how the japanese release is it's like the sunshine coming out after mer girl's storm and also brings it full circle back to drowned world I already have it like that, I know she meant it like that because in an interview she mentions how 13 is a really spiritual number and all… but I hate it, so Has To Be as the 14th track makes sense to me Also wish she included Be Careful instead of giving it to Ricky Martin… such a beautiful track! Hidden gem for sure Gone Gone Gone, Airoso and Revenge are great too but I can see why she didn’t include them 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anonymcomenter 4,675 Posted February 28, 2023 THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS REVENGE… Sooo cool I know Liquid Love, Cyber-Raga and What it Feels Like For a Girl are from Music, but those have big ROL energy 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Let the Light In 18,684 Posted February 28, 2023 I would get rid of Little Star, maybe release it as Substitute for Love B side. Then the album would still has Has to Be and 13 tracks. 2 Quote I'd be lying if I said I wasn't sick of it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anonymcomenter 4,675 Posted February 28, 2023 She has one unbelievable unreleased cataloge! Her ROL, Music, COAD, HC and RH outtakes are complete hate crimes!! we need all of these released officially even if it’s in a special aniversario edition: - Revenge - Be Careful - Gone Gone Gone - Run - Mysore Style - Airoso - Liquid Love - Alone Again (hers or Kylies version) - I’m in Love with Love - The Game - Keep the Trance - Triggering (Your Senses) - History (Land of the Free) not that horrible versión she released as a B-side - Broken - Latte - Across the Sky - Animal Any of these is better than anything in Madame X (minus Crave and I Rise maybe…) 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Let the Light In 18,684 Posted February 28, 2023 I remember back then Revenge was uploaded to Limewire as Fighting Spirit and majority of us who relied on that thought Fighting Spirit is actually Revenge for years 0 Quote I'd be lying if I said I wasn't sick of it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

the ocean 67,601 Posted March 1, 2023 1 hour ago, TRENCH said: what tracks are outtakes from that era? babyface sessions (i'd assume late 1996? these were the earliest ones) - i'll be gone - never love a stranger rick nowels sessions (early 1997) - no substitute for love (very very different early demo of "drowned world") - revenge - like a flower - gone gone gone - alone again (later given to kylie) - little star (demo) - the power of goodbye (demo) - to have and not to hold (demo) patrick leonard sessions (early 1997, after the rick ones) - be careful - you'll stay (later / fleshed out version of "like a flower") - flirtation dance (early version of "skin") - regfresando william orbit sessions (mid to late 1997) - don't think we have any completely new tracks, mostly demos of songs that were released on ray of light 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
