BB gets so much hate but it was made when she was at her lowest and probably didn't care enough to polish it up. It will just live on as a lowkey gem for us.

Aethereal Posted Saturday at 01:03 AM Share Posted Saturday at 01:03 AM (edited) Born To Die has now sold over 2.3M pure sales in US. And as of August 2014 it had sold 4.5M track downloads in US. Quote However, Smith was beat by one of the world's most streamed artists. Del Rey's 2012 debut, "Born to Die," was No. 1 globally in Spotify's "median ranking," measuring the popularity of all tracks on an album, and eighth in overall streaming activity. (Sales-wise, the album has moved 1.1 million units and 4.5 million tracks in the U.S., according to Nielsen SoundScan.) https://www.billboard.com/pro/sam-smiths-spotify-gamble-did-it-pay-off/ Vinyl sales in US vs WW in 2023.

Aethereal Posted Sunday at 02:59 PM Share Posted Sunday at 02:59 PM The unreleased songs should remain unreleased with some few exceptions. SYTH being released is the best thing from that collection everything else is negligible to me TBH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aethereal Posted Monday at 01:29 PM Share Posted Monday at 01:29 PM @NOW Kill, kill really grew on me. Such a nice relaxing summer song. It only needs a better production it sounds like a demo and not ALL (or even MOST) of her demos are better than the official produced version no matter what some Lana stans say. Also add a good bridge on it and also change the title. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aethereal Posted Monday at 07:00 PM Share Posted Monday at 07:00 PM After listening to Katy's spinnet, as far as quality goes, we truly stan the goat. Lana was right about her and Gaga. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has that nostalgic Myspace indie sleaze vibe that I used to obsess over during that time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The leaked demo was nice but the song itself is beautiful that any arrangement would've been fine for release. The Honeymoon version was cute too. The fact that it's her fastest song to clock half a billion Spotify streams is insane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
