demo 2 and demo beat are both pretty clear

Is the snippet of Cherry that was used in the V Magazine shoot Insta post actually unmastered? Or did people just assume that

And same with like the snippets of Cinnamon Girl/How to Disappear/California that Lana posted on Insta, I've never truly analyzed if any snippets she's posted herself are different than what's actually released. Are they actual demos/noticeably different?

Thinking you know more about HER songs than SHE does is peak ridiculousness.

Cherry in the V Magazine is an early mix, honeymouns confirmed and imo the Cinnamon snippet in the car was never the demo because she had bass speakers there (I can hear the strings there too). I think California is the same too but the How To Disappear snippet is only the piano version, like there weren't any of those jack homemade trap beats there.

I think all the 3 snippets of HIAB are the same without any major changes I think. I do suspect that there's a Rick Nowels demo of it, idk why

I think Bonita was the title of the song, but a demo probably does exist, as each song must have an early version.

 

Also, I think BOZ said at some point that Lana changed the names of some songs.

weren't daddy's girl, pussycat kittycat, and be my daddy all from the same session? we have a snippet of a rough demo of be my daddy that had to have come from the same session as daddy's girl and pussycat kittycat, but i would argue they could be different songs, at least pussycat kittycat could be

 

neon palmmm is definitely an early demo of heavy hitter since it uses blockhead's instrumental concept and it shares a lot of lyrics

 

roller derby is definitely also a demo for pin up galore, they're just too similar, and it isn't uncommon for demos to sometimes have different titles, especially with lana

as far as i remember they all are from the same session around july 16 2010, and also i think it had vocal take called daddy’s girl, but then we had those 2 voice notes called daddy’s girl that are from july 29 2010, it has always been confusing to me with all of those vocal takes/concepts/sessions of that specific song be my daddy

Who is the guy who says "Yes, of course I will, my darling" in National Anthem demos? Is it from a video/movie or an uncredited background vocalist (maybe one of The Nexus guys)?
