godsmonster 14,221 Posted February 22, 2019 every time I listen to this song, the beginning notes before she sings always brings tears to my eyes. It's just so beautiful. Unpopular opinion: I feel the demo is better, and conveys her emotions a little bit better than the UV version. It's simplistic production just works so well 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GodBlessMe 2,141 Posted February 25, 2019 every time I listen to this song, the beginning notes before she sings always brings tears to my eyes. It's just so beautiful. Unpopular opinion: I feel the demo is better, and conveys her emotions a little bit better than the UV version. It's simplistic production just works so well I don't think this is an unpopular opinion. The production on the album version is a tragedy imo. 1 Quote I AM MY ONLY GOD Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DinahLee 6,192 Posted February 13, 2020 Kinda ignored Black Beauty for so long but I really see how beautiful it is now. I relate to the fucking subject of the song FUCK Small curiosity but is it the same vocal take on the final and the demo version? I'd say it really sound like but haven't payed full attention. I'd say they just fucked up some stuff for the final (add reverb and noise) but not sure she re-recorded?? There could be some lyric changes too but, as I mentioned, didn't pay full attention. Started wondering because of the Love demo that sounds a lot like final take too. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Same lyrics 1 Quote If by not 'up to par' you mean distilling the worst elements that only kind of work in songs, sure. I could put a dictionary audiobook on shuffle and put it to an instrumental of old money and some of y'all would still be saying it's 50/50 lmfao. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yosemite 23,786 Posted January 6, 2021 After all these years, demo is still far superior than released version. The whole atmosphere that the demo has...... 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SoftwareUpgrade 19,349 Posted June 13, 2023 "I paint the house black." Does she? We won't truly know unless we hear the concept demo for UVs anniversary An overlooked classic by some fans, deserves more love (this remix is epic, too) 0 Quote I'm Poppy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lana Del Dufrene 10,635 Posted August 7 Apologies about bumping this thread but I felt this was the appropirate place to talk about Black Beauty (more specifically its radio mix ). I wonder if its similiar to the demo that leaked in 2013 but fuller and grander(ish) with soft electric guitars, more more bass, subtle yet not subtle strings and possibly a drum pattern kinda like the demo we just got but starting in the first chorus and throughout the song afterwards and with a drum kit similiar to Angels Forever, but Idk just a thought. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
