I love Confessions but it kinda gets carried by Hung Up and Sorry which are 2 of the best pop songs ever created. The rest of the album is good but none of the other songs compare to those 2 tbh.

I think the leak incident did a lot of damage to Rebel Heart. It was going to be like two seperate albums Rebel + Heart and we were going to have a cohesive project but 40+ demos leaking year before made her change the direction.

yes!!! i think the project got super rushed after the leaks and the album deeply suffered from it. I think a lot of the demos prove the songs aren't bad but just had poor production choice and track placement.

Literally all the demo versions of "Hold Tight" are better than the final album version. 

the "joan of arc" demo hits so much harder than the weird album version 

i think the original avicii "rebel heart" demo version could of been the perfect first single 

shoutout to "Veni Vidi Vici" demo version, way more iconic than the actual "iconic" song, should of been on the standard version  

 

"inside out" demo > 

 

"wash all over me" demo is the avicii confessions disco track we never got 

"best night" demo has some real erotica/dita feels how was this version not picked

[the ocean 67,601]

how she managed to turn the absolutely terrible i'm breathless songs into an experience on the blond ambition tour

 

the songs didn't even change but it just makes sense on a stage

She confirmed on Instagram that she's currently working on some kind of remix album with Mike Dean and Honey Dijon to celebrate her 50 Billboard Dance Chart number ones!

I once burned an extended version of Music with alternate versions and other songs. It worked, however it lowkey sucks that I'm not a design/printing expert and I can't make a proper digipack or something like that

Lmao, I kinda like these 2 songs (far from being my favorites tho), they're pretty campy and so bad it's good type of cringe. What I like about IB is that it's not a serious album, even though it has some sad moments like SoL or StR. It mostly feels like a parody of an old b&m movie with all the references to being a blonde skinny rich bitch + vintage cinematic jazz sound.

I also prefer jewel cases, but I feel like it would be pretty difficult for a beginner like me to design, choose the right materials and make all of it (front, back, sides, cd sticker...) and have a satisfying result. I'll try it at some point tho.
