I’ve been getting a little tired of the same old songs lately and got bored so I actually just made a big playlist and compiled my favorite pop girls available remixes into it and it actually is… kinda fire. it’s like hearing my main playlist I usually listen to but different. here’s a link if you want to listen! right now it has all of the remixes of katy perry, kesha, lady gaga, miley cyrus, selena gomez, demi lovato, britney spears, kelly clarkson, and taylor swift. let me know if i should add more female artists remixes to it! make sure you listen to it on shuffle! the playlist is right here, it might take like 10 seconds to load for some reason… updated link- 2023

oh actually there is still some missing even on spotify. but they’re available on amazon music on compilations. well, they’re not available on the album in any specific regions. so maybe you could try to tweet at dolly parton or her record label to look into getting them licensed on her album, or you can use local files of these songs.

well actually i can’t even see it from there on mobile but still the songs seem to be only on compilations. i guess the record label that’s attached to that greatest hits album isn’t the same label that currently has the rights to those songs. and no, it doesn’t seem to unlock the songs specifically on the album view no matter what region you go to. do you not have those songs available in some loose compilations if you search them up specifically? it might be just your service qobuz cause i can see all the songs on spotify in compilations by searching for them individually

sorry lol. they don’t show up as greyed out on browser. each song seems to be available on loose compilations on spotify and amazon outside of the us. not as part of the album anywhere tho? i wonder why she has so many missing tracks on that album tho that’s weird….

i can see the songs on a browser. is that what you’re asking for? just a list of what’s there?

it wasn’t available in the US and maybe some other areas before for some reason. So it region-locked Wherever I Go. now it’s available everywhere! (except Canada)

I don’t know if this artist has the biggest fanbase 😂 but Hannah Montana’s Best Of compilation has just been added to all streaming services worldwide (except Canada), it includes an exclusive (but not that great) remix of Are You Ready and the song sang in the finale of Hannah Montana - Wherever I Go!

well those 2 (The Ending and Bittersweet) are the only new songs to streaming, everything else was already on streaming albeit a region lock for 3 songs (Ritual, In My City, Without Your Love). also, this new release is missing High for This? Which is from the same exclusive deal as her song The Ending, which is getting released? Maybe it has to do with it being The Weeknd cover but an upload of her version has literally 31 million views on YouTube, so it probably should’ve been added on this release. So yeah, it’s not actually a complete edition. But since it’s from the same release as another bonus track I have no idea how she missed it… I’m thinking she had to have seen it but maybe she can’t legally release it, but I kind of wish I could reach out and mention that she didn’t add High for This but she doesn’t really respond to many people on twitter. Also it’s still weird how she advertised as if it was 18 bonus tracks, when at best it’s 5 new songs to streaming. I guess she wanted to overemphasize it..?

Ellie Goulding is releasing a complete edition of Halcyon Days with 2 songs previously unavailable on streaming including The Ending and Bittersweet (from the Twilight soundtrack). This release is also bringing the songs Ritual, In My City, and Without Your Love to streaming in all the countries it wasn’t available before which were many. Also, Ashanti put her album Braveheart back on spotify, it had been missing for a few months. Also, Hilary Duff’s album Metamorphosis is no longer missing half of the tracklist outside of the United States on streaming, all the songs are now playable again. Hilary Duff has also just released the Japan version of Breathe In. Breathe Out. to all areas on streaming for the first time. This includes the japan exclusive song Outlaw, that was only available on the physical target and fanclub special united states releases, outside of japan. This also brings the deluxe tracks Belong and Rebel Heart to the United States where they weren’t available before, and this release also includes the non-album singles Hilary Duff released that were scrapped from the album, All About You and Chasing the Sun

since shazam can recognize the jingle of the songs from her album there must be a database that holds those sounds right? and apparently bella has the files, even the two deluxe songs stored on her computer so maybe one day she’ll think the album is kinda nostalgic and release it with hollywood records for her devoted fans or something or maybe she’ll become really poor one day and she’ll think about this old album she has in the vault and milk this album with 5 editions of a vinyl or something for $30 each and signed cds for her very last fans on twitter idk 😂

This is 16 songs. Someone hack into Nickelodeon Records / Columbia Records databases and get these songs!!

that’s actually the only area the album is not available in!! 😭🤣

sure! i hope it helps someone out if they’re wondering about why some songs aren’t in certain regions. i hope all these songs will be available in every region someday! and maybe even bonus tracks from walmart/target/etc. that were never released on streaming.

Lover in Me and I Like It That Way are available i’m guessing because they didn’t license the songs exclusively to Target, they licensed it exclusively to Target for its use in the United States I’m pretty sure. So that’s why they could release the Slow Down EP digitally everywhere else. And if the licensing to Target in the United States expired already they could theoretically have released the songs there already, but they’d have to make a new digital release of Stars Dance with it or a new digital release of the Slow Down EP that has no region lock, unlike the current one. Or they could possibly even pay to break the region lock of the Slow Down EP but it might be expensive, or not worth it to the label or the contract license of the EP might not allow it. It might be written similar to this in the album paperwork “The Slow Down extended play by Selena Gomez, is to be released in the United Kingdom, Latin America, New Zealand, and ….” and that defines where it can be released, and if the paperwork said “The Slow Down extended play by Selena Gomez, is to be released anywhere it’s licensed except the United States and Canada” it could be released anywhere the label pays for it to be released except United States and Canada. And about your former question, I think it depends on the artists contract whether the artist has to have final approval before any new releases come out with their material, especially if they’re no longer a part of that label. Also I don’t think Selena owns her masters for anything before Rare or Revival, and since Revival and Rare still are listed under Interscope copyright she might just own a publishing license, her writing credits for those albums since she didn’t primarily write before those releases, or she might just be set to own her masters eventually but Interscope still owns them for now. But anyway, about the unreleased songs / releasing editions of albums, Hollywood Records or one of the main labels that own every other label (Universal, Warner, or Sony), in this case Universal could theoretically release one of her songs as part of a major compilation like what happened with her song Cologne, which is now available in the United States and other areas as part of a Universal Records digital streaming compilation titled Call for Rain on spotify, amazon music, and some other services. (But it doesn’t mean that they can release a new album or album edition under Selena’s name, they might just able to include already released songs from Selena in their label compilations, that might be a clause included in her contract or a music industry established rule). But it really depends on the artists contract whether it’s legal for record labels to release new rereleases or songs without their approval. So Taylor Swift probably had a contract that didn’t say she had to have final approval of all releases which is why some of her live performances, remixes and “Big Machine Radio Specials” came out after she left that she didn’t necessarily approve of, but it probably had a clause that they couldn’t release unreleased songs or demos that they had recorded, without her approval of release otherwise Big Machine could’ve released the same songs (the original version) that Taylor included for the first time in Taylor’s Version albums in a special edition of the standard albums they own from her. But i’m guessing they didn’t have the right to release them, or that they could have released some songs without her approval when they owned her masters but it wasn’t included in the contracts when Scooter Braun bought them, that he could access her former files to release. He probably exclusively bought the released material’s licenses with no access to anything unreleased. Hope that clears some things up

now that i think about it this post doesn’t go well under the topic singles. can i move it to the jukebox section?

well on this list i wrote songs that are on streaming in other regions and the region locking status. but the spanish version of ghost of you isn’t on streaming at all, it’s not region locked because there’s no region to lock, that’s why i didn’t include it. but just if you’re curious if it was to ever come on streaming, hollywood records would have to make a new digital release with a new copyright for an album edition including that song and any other songs they wanted to include and include it with no region lock, they couldn’t expand an already existing release’s country for this song yet like they can for some albums, because there isn’t one available - digitally. the region locking licensing is also tied to the individual tracks in copyright too, but the target united states/asda uk store exclusivity-license could’ve expired by now and it could be releaseable. even physical special releases have to have a completely new digital edition of the album made if they wanted to rerelease an edition compiling old bonus tracks. that’s why the deluxe expanded edition of emotion by carly rae jepsen says it was published in 2015, but the copyright says it’s a 2020 release. because the target edition was never released with a digital edition until 2020. it says the same for the lizzie mcguire movie soundtrack since it was never released digitally until 2021, but the publishing says 2003 release. a good amount of several releases from the 2000s already could’ve had a bonus track rerelease edition for the album from the label after the “international/walmart/specific region deal expired” but most labels don’t care enough about rereleasing bonus tracks that might not get that many streams anyway to pay for the digital album’s new edition’s copyright, especially if the old one’s copyright just got renewed recently because it’s only valid for a certain amount of years and the album’s digital licensing could be any possible year and it might be an autorenew type deal. the label might not release a new digital edition because the songs might not get enough money earned on streaming to offset the cost of copyright. but if an albums digital licensing expires and they would have to repay for new licensing they “could” let the old release become deprecated and release a new expanded edition. but most labels find it simpler to just pay to renew the old licensing fee for the previous release since they’d have to spend a significant amount of time compiling the new album release and renewing a legality license for the individual bonus tracks on song copyright databases and making sure they have no region locking tied to them to add it streaming. also a lot of the time when a licensing fee gets renewed it can bring the album to more regions then it had before. sometimes labels even let an albums licensing fee expire if the songs don’t make enough money on streaming. so yeah, ghost of you spanish version might not ever come to streaming because there might not be enough bonus tracks on when the sun goes down for hollywood records to want to purchase a new digital copyright license for. maybe selena gomez could make an expanded edition once she gets the masters of all of her songs, since she doesn’t need to worry about funding a record label with the streaming payout and she probably has the money to spare and wouldn’t see it as a loss. but that’ll be 35 years from the album ’s release to get her masters so… 2046

I was talking about how Hilary Duff has specific remixes including for Dignity only available internationally, they are actually all listed under the label angel in spotify. What this means is Hollywood records partnered with the record label angel to release their songs outside of the United States during this time. And since the record label even says Angel on spotify it means that they reliquenshed the rights of the album to the international label for a flat fee of what they think the albums would make in total in those countries. Instead of getting paid for each release individually in the new country. They did this at a time where physical cds were primary though so I guess the digital rights were just included along with them. So they could just reupload digitally whatever they had gotten from Hollywood. Once the rights expire for the album international licensing though (and not renewed) which usually happens between 15-20 years after the album’s release or contract termination, the rights to these releases will either return to hollywood or the international releases will become defunct. So the specific remixes might not ever come to streaming, it might also be because Angel made the remixes themselves but I doubt it specifically for Hilary because Hollywood usually uses the same artists for their remixes. Dave Aude, Bimbo Jones, Chris Cox. But since these remixes are only available internationally they might be taken down at some point since Hollywood Records already has an album version of Dignity available in the United States and everywhere, so why would they buy a new license for an international version for just one remix when they already have a version. And the international version might be region locked outside of the United States so they would still have to license a u.s. version of the album alongside the international one so they might just drop it and only keep the release of the u.s. version and release it worldwide.

yeah it’s so tedious, i love pop music so much and when i hear about out of region bonus tracks for my favorite artists it makes me upset honestly 😂 i’m glad artists don’t do that anymore. the way some of these old pre-digital albums have like 13 versions with slightly different track listings/bonus tracks drives me crazy enough

honestly i don’t know why disney didn’t try to sign and capitalize off of a bella singing career when shake it up first started. they obviously had her and zendaya sing watch me to try to see if one could be a popular disney-signed celebrity. why didn’t they make bella make the bubblegum pop album back in 2011 when she was 13? she might’ve been more down to do it honestly and might’ve made more albums year after year, same with zendaya. if you think about it, miley and demi never would’ve been as famous if their first album came out a year after their show ended lmao 😂

oh that’s cool! so the two bonus tracks are actually on shazam? i actually still can only see break into my heart and daydream on shazam i haven’t seen anything else from the album 😬 but it doesn’t help to get the songs i guess since i wouldn’t even know how to find where the song wavelengths to match to shazams that are stored…. and for anyone else who wants the leaked songs there aren’t any.. bad case of you is on the mostly ghostly soundtrack tho and the jersey ep with 5 songs got released everywhere on streaming last year. the original version of the song call it whatever is only available on streaming in the united states and canada still like several other disney channel songs but internationally the jersey remix should be available everywhere.

Boyfriend Material and Daydream are actually in different spots tho. Why is this what you think the tracklist is? Is there a newer official leaked track list or something? 🤣

release the full call it whatever album with the two deluxe tracks on spotify and apple music or you’re not real 👍😳🤔

I just looked it up, you right. It’s in the ending credits of Snow Queen 2, i have never even heard of that movie before. I guess there are no Bella songs in trading what a bummer. We gotta break into shazam’s database and get those songs from there!!
