I remember that, by the time we got the AG Cook 2016 file where he mentioned things like the XCX Towers, the Charli's Never Ending Wardrobe and the Vroom Vroom Car Workshop (among other things), I found this one: Bounce (feat. Kyary Pamyu Pamyu) Daddy Knows Good Girls This Is the Moment What You Gonna Do Now Girls Night Out Waterfall Heartbeat The One I Die 4 Down Like Whoa Queen Lizzy Can You Hear Me I Wanna Be with U But I wouldn't be able to tell if it's official. It includes Daddy Knows and another unleaked song (What You Gonna Do Now), but it missing ATAP, No Angel, Boys (which is later than this I think) and CTMP made me skeptical about it lol. He mentions Bounce and Daddy Knows. 2 Quote "I'm wild, I'm free, no man can handle me" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Here’s what BlackoutZone said about it: Spoiler The "draft tracklist from June 2016" is not really an actual tracklist either, the album was still heavily worked on, but Charli's manager asked her, just to have an idea, IF an album was to be released now what would be the tracklist, so she pieced it together to have something as for that day. Also at that time Bounce was solo 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alkolmoldah 2,076 Posted December 31, 2021 Y'all can go on and on about "storylines" or "sonically this and that" but ctmp flops as the second track. Like, it in no universe has a second track vibe. Gno however could fit as either and therefore is the second track out of the two y'all's minds are so ugly.. 8 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I like both but in my opinion Can You Hear Me is better. There's just something to Heartbeat that feels missing, can't point my finger on what's that. But it would make a cute bonus track I guess 1 Quote "I'm wild, I'm free, no man can handle me" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

the ocean 67,601 Posted December 31, 2021 i just did some real archaeology through the thread - i swear searching through this thread is HELL this is part of the XCX manifesto made by ag cook (this is only an excerpt from it) Spoiler quote from a blackoutzone post (originally shared by The Boss): Spoiler On 2/7/2021 at 1:25 PM, TheBoss said: BlackoutZone shared this huge info post on ATRL: "The amount of misinformation that is being spread lately from clueless users, wish someone else came to clarify, but I guess everyone gets tired at some point... This is not an actual album campaign. In early album stages AG Cook was asked to come up with a visual plan for the era, he called it XCX Manifesto and wrote it all by himself and presented as his art direction for XCX3. It was never 100% finalized although they based some of the visuals on it, cause it was cool. That leaked picture is just a small part of whole thing AG Cook wrote originally. The album was not called XCX either, it was an idea and a placeholder name they used just like XCX World, but XCX World absolutely felt like an actual contender to me. The "draft tracklist from June 2016" is not really an actual tracklist either, the album was still heavily worked on, but Charli's manager asked her, just to have an idea, IF an album was to be released now what would be the tracklist, so she pieced it together to have something as for that day. Also at that time Bounce was solo :ryan2: Things started taking real shape when in late 2016 when Spike Stent, popular mixing engineer got requested and paid to mix Charli's album or more exactly 12 songs. Shortly after 12 got narrowed to 9 for unknown reasons and that's exactly what happened. Spike mixed and mastered the following songs by november 2016: After The Afterparty - which was ready earlier and already released Can You Hear Me? Die 4 Down Like Wow Girls Night Out Good Girls I Wanna Be With You Queen Lizzy Waterfall And this is literally why and how they leaked. Spike got hacked and the songs got spread (along with the stems which somehow still stay unleaked to this day). They would not pay him for mastering the songs if they weren't meant to be released. The mystery remains in 3 remaining tracks and why would they get pulled just shortly after Spike got booked for mixing of 12 songs. Since it's unlikely that Charli would cut the album to length of 9 songs it's more probable that she decided to do some last minute changes or adjustments. One of the 3 songs would for sure be Bounce and HERE is where Kyary probably steps in and the song was possibly not ready for mastering yet, cause maybe Kyary hasn't provided all the vocals yet? Maybe they were simply still working on it, on figuring out the bridge or ad libs or God knows what. That's why the Bounce she performed on Kimmel isn't necessarily final final, it's simply the last version she managed to get ready FOR the performance. The remaining 2 songs are unknown to me, most probably want to accept that it's Taxi and Come to My Party, but that seems unlikely, Taxi was never a ready song during that time and they had some issues with releasing it, I honestly don't remember what was it exactly. I hope we will find out one day. The 3 songs and "issues" with them must have been crucial and time consuming, maybe that's why we got N1A to feed us while we wait :matty: Maybe one of the songs to be in was actually No Angel since at some point she tried to get multiple different features to jump on it, but it didn't work out with any, no idea. Some other things that I saw being mixed up here and there: Paint the Town is a 2018 song by EasyFun HBHG was never meant to be released or even finished The recently leaked Sticky is not a 2020 rework but 2020 rework still exists Real Friend was still being work on last year, but more recently rewritten by Raye and re-recorded with different lyrics Problematic Song is just called Pop It Both 100 by Jack & Coke and Real Love are from 2017 That's on my side, do what you want with that, I wish everything was released and we would have more clarity from the START. " and another quote from blackoutzone (also shared by The Boss) Spoiler On 2/7/2021 at 2:30 PM, TheBoss said: A bit more info: "Question: I’m assuming Real Love is from the same sessions as Porsche/Million/Champion, making it a Pop 2 outtake, right? But do you know the specific month 100, Never Felt Better and Thrills are from? Because I think they might be some of the first songs she made after finishing Pop 2, meaning they could be some of the earliest Charli sessions (if they could even be called “album sessions” yet)? Or is that wrong? Also, you mentioned scrapped features on No Angel... is there any truth to No Angel feat. Jay Park? Cause that was an old rumour in mid 2017 lmao (before we even knew he was on Pop 2). BOZ: Since Real Love was produced by King Henry - yes! Speaking of, Million almost made it to Pop 2 as MO featuring, I believe a version with her verse hasn't leaked? Never Felt Better and Thrills are right after Pop 2, december 2017 I need to check on 100, but definitely 2017 I can't confirm it myself, but according to Dennis and Bloom - yes one of the collaborators on No Angel was to be Jay Park EDIT: leaked 100 is September 2017 - Jack & Coke, cowritten by Noonie Bao." I guess most of you will have to make a few tweaks on your unreleased albums lol edit: also since these posts another song called 100 leaked but from 2015 produced by sophie - i know @EXODUS and @Glitter Boy were talking about it a few posts ago 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
