I guess she wasn't satisfied with the originals. 8 Quote wanna get to heaven, so let's get high Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sadness is a butterfly 5,796 Posted March 4, 2023 At this point I’m going to assume Void was reworked heavily, Sirens was reworked lyrically (could have a different name), and Tunnel Vision exists in somewhat of a similar format, who knows what the lyrics are. Maybe that’s the one she kept as/is (fingers crossed). Losing hope for Needle and Thread, as I’m thinking it may not fit with the vibe of the album, which is a shame because it’s one of the best. 5 Quote It's a beautiful life, remember that too, for me.

Wessdude 244 Posted March 4, 2023 Leeches surrounded, conscience is throbbing They can't sleep at night, hold their pillows tight Caught in the rivers of the tears that I cried Bountiful harvest, they flock to my garden Push their way inside, I go run and hide They lift all the covers, pull me into their side leeches fits the album theme i'm sure, but probably didn't made the cut 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
misslonaxo 1,733 Posted March 4, 2023 It took me a bit, but i'm really vibing with "The Void". and i think the production sounds really cool actually... Almost a little Stained Glass by Madison/Tame Impala influence? Spoiler And yes, maybe i do think its better than the original Void (2020 demo) they're similar lyrically which I love If anyone was curious, Melanie produced the first demo of Emerald herself... which is why it sounds a bit rougher than the others. it's just a country pop loop ala Kacey musgraves and raw vocals, that K&OL reproduced. I think she produced a couple other rough demos that never made it to the internet... Moon Cycle maybe? Don't shoot me if im wrong. Anyways, what im trying to say is Melanie has already shown a lot of growth as a producer if you compare the demo of Emerald to "The Void" snippet, and we should be supportive of ha 2 hours ago, sadness is a butterfly said: Losing hope for Needle and Thread, as I’m thinking it may not fit with the vibe of the album, which is a shame because it’s one of the best. I always felt like Needle & Thread sounded like something Melanie would choose for a closing track. It has a sort of "resolution" vibe. Maybe there's still hope? 7 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
