The Demo is so pure and raw and beautiful and a masterpiece.

[@kristafincke61]

This is great. So glad she talked about the lines at the end starting with "I want my cake on a silver platter." That verse rips me in 2 every time (in a good way). I'd love to know where she got the line "I want a beautiful boy's despondent laughter."

This song is my absolute favorite on the record (and probably of Halsey’s entire discography) and feels like such a comfort blanket to my constant paralyzing anxiety. Hearing that there’s 30 guitars on it and the way they describe the atmosphere they consciously created is just brilliant.

I love this breakdown! I knew this song was so powerful but others seemed to sleep on this song. I love hearing her vocals isolated.

I KNEW SHOEGAZE/MBV was an influence. That's why it's my favorite song. ❤️

[@skyler7430]

This is my favorite one on the album

[@alessandromaldonado-boicel6645]

[@hello-beautiful-stars148]

wow we really need the demo before it got more "clean" (less grunge and clearer instruments) I feel like the music REALLY stands out in the original demo and i'd love to actually hear the 33 guitars and pick out different chord progressions -- edit: the final version is one of my favorites on the album and a great song, it'd just be awesome to hear both versions in full!

[@empanada_con_queso]

My favorite song 💜✨

[@fabiooliveira8940]

Awesome interview! 🌈

[@rinacarryon15]

Are there any other songs on her new album she strips down and talks about like this?

[@guillermosegurag7307]

Nice
