Hiiii babies and dear Anons 👋🏼🤗. I'm back with a new Q&A post. Those who follow me already know that I haven't been well for quite some time now, and therefore also know that this is the reason for my delays in posting 😭.
Oh and, I apologize again to those Anons of the songs' analysis 😅. They're not even in this post 😅. Please forgive me guys 🙏🏼. Analysis are long and it was a mess to even post this between work and my bad health 😭. I'll make sure to have them ready for the next Q&A though. Sorry again 🙏🏼.
Now let's move on directly to the answers. Enjoy 🙃.
Tumblr media
Hi to you too, dear Anon 👋🏼😄. Thank you so much 🤗 and yeah, of course you can DM me. I never appear to be online, but you can write to me whenever you want. I'll answer you as soon as I can 😉.
Tumblr media
You can find the answer in the last ask https://fa-by.tumblr.com/post/717423115134779392/hi-to-you-too-dear-anon-and-thank-you-very. Have a great day too, Anon.
Tumblr media
I'm slowly getting better, Anon. I hope you're doing well.
Sorry, but the answer hasn't changed. In case you didn't see it in that post: ---please, please, please guys, don’t ask me to tell you the sites because I won’t. I don’t want any problems.
In addition I can only tell you that many sites get shut down or changed (or both) over the years, especially with the too much word-of-mouth. So I'm sorry but you have to find them on your own. Like I said, I don't want any problems.
Tumblr media
Hiiii to you too, dear Anon 👋🏼😄 and I hope you're having a beautiful day too.
As for your question, I'm sorry, my dear 🥺. I'm so so sorry, but I don't understand what you're asking me. I really tried 😅 and forgive me 🙏🏼 but I just didn't understand. Could you please formulate the question better or give me an example?
Again, I'm sorry, I really am 😭.
Tumblr media
Hi to you too, dear Anon 👋🏼😄. My girlfriend and I aren't having much luck with health lately 😅, especially me 😅😅, but I hope you are (healthy) 🙃.
To answer your question, no. All In My Feelings screams Camila in every letter 🤣😜.
Tumblr media
Hello to you too, dear Anon 👋🏼😄. A little better, you?
And nope. I personally disagree with that theory I saw around a long time ago. That is Mila's point of view for me.
Tumblr media
Hey to you too, dear Anon 👋🏼😄. Thank you so much for your kind words and rest assured that I'll say hi from you to my gf live since she'll be staying here with me for 2 months 🥳.
About your question, I would very much love to help you and solve your doubts, believe me, but I'm sorry I don't know how 😅 because I don't have a specific context. Mila has been to Spain a looot of times, so if you could tell me specifically when and send me the pics of the phrases maybe, just maybe I might be able to help you 😄.
Tumblr media
Good morning to you too, dear Anon 👋🏼😄. This good morning I don't know why I swear but it's so new and refreshing, I love it 😍! Thank you, my dear Anon 🤩.
Anyway, the answer to your question is: on purpose of course 🤣.
Tumblr media
Hi to you too, dear Anon 👋🏼😄. I'm sorry, my dear, but you must have me confused with someone else because I never said anything like that.
I hope you're having a beautiful day too 😄.
Tumblr media
Hi to you too, dear Anon 👋🏼😄 and thanks, I'm trying. Short summary on the Camren songs you say? Okay, I'll do as I did with Prelude.
All In My Feelings: 2014
Always Love: 2016
Trust Issues: 2017
The One: 2018
My dear, who said I can't do the analysis?
Tumblr media
Hi to you too, dear Anon 👋🏼😄. I'm sorry I can't be as present as before, but shouldn't you be happy that, even if not always, I'm here? Focus on the positive 😉.
1) [If, Lauren's new PR is ONLY to cover up camren-] and the songs (old and future ones), and their private life, yes.
[-why would Lauren do it again (she has denied it thousands of times camren)?]
Why would Lauren do it again, what? Why have a PR or why deny Camren? Sorry but I got confused 😅.
In any case, you can find the answer here in the first ask https://fa-by.tumblr.com/post/717423115134779392/hi-to-you-too-dear-anon-and-thank-you-very.
2) [How long approximately do you think this PR of Lauren will last?]
I hope they've made a basic contract for at least one year's duration with no possibility of extending it beyond that, but I don't know. It'll depend on whether things go as planned or not.
3) [And how do you imagine the PR to end?]
I honestly don't cause I don't care 🤭🤣. No seriously tho 🤣. I see two possible roads connected to those indirects. **For those who don't know, I saw that there are people who think they broke up because of what they assumed were indirects of a breakup on IG.**
Road n°1: that was all PR bullshit as usual. Sasha's on tour with Madonna again and the two of them (L&S) can't see each other, ergo, they can't be seen together to the public like before. Ergo x2, there are other ways to publicize. People need to learn to remember that PRs feed and thrive on speculation and gossip. So ergo x3, nothing has changed because it was one of the many ways to get people to talk about the PR. The PR is still on.
Road n°2: a merge of everything I said in road n°1 + what I said in point 2). Let me explain better.
If my hope that they've made a basic contract for at least one year's duration with no possibility of extending it beyond that can be the reality, then it means that they're running out of time. Why? Because as I explained in my Laucy 2.O post, Lauren and Sasha supposedly got together on the night of December 18, 2021 (unless we’ll have anniversary posts in the future) but officially, the relationship was announced on February 14, 2023, on Valentine's Day.  February 2024 is not that far away. If that's why, December is right around the corner if they want to go ahead with that 🤣. But anyway. This means that they could've used the indirects both for publicity and to generate speculation as I said in road n°1, and to initiate the future official break-up. They could very well use the distance as an excuse for the breakup.
But again, who knows in the end 🤷🏻‍♀️. This could be an idea 😏.
Tumblr media
Hello to you too, dear @camilalauren0327 👋🏼😄, and thank you.
It can be both, although it's rarer. It's usually the inside people who've worked on it with her in a personal way who are the ones looking for potential buyers. By inside people I mean producers and writers by the way. I'd also remind you tho that this is only possible if Mila is super sure she doesn't want a song anymore. Because if she's attached to it or just wants to reuse it in the future for lyrics or whatever, then the sale isn't even a thought.
You’re welcome, my dear 🤗, anytime.
Tumblr media
Hello again, my dear @camilalauren0327 👋🏼😄. My health is improving a little and I hope yours is waaaay better than mine 😊.
1) Chronologically speaking, no. Neither Lauren nor Camila have ever released songs in order. It's more evident with Mila because we have a lot more of her songs, but they both release songs about different situations that happened even in different years. If they were to release them in chronological order, the lies would be all too obvious even to the general public. Instead, in this way, it's easier to hide the truth and mix it with the narratives and their PRs. It's simply up to us to put the pieces together.
2) In the AMAs interview (Oct 9, 2018) with Chelsea Briggs for Billboard, Laur said she'd written 40 songs. Of those 40 songs, and taking away the ones she'd already released, 5 were chosen for Prelude. In December 2021 in the interview with Zach Sang, she said she still had about 50 songs done. In the interview with People (May 26, 2023) (https://people.com/lauren-jauregui-on-working-with-ex-ty-dolla-amid-new-relationship-exclusive-7504696) she said: “I haven't really written a lot since 2020” and explained that In Between “It’s in between the time of Prelude and the actual official debut album”. And in the one with Galore (Jun 20, 2023) (https://galoremag.com/lauren-jauregui-releases-her-newest-ep-in-between-and-talks-about-new-music-love-whats-next/) she said: “These songs have actually been sitting with me since 2018/2019”.
Now what do I want to tell you with this? That Prelude and In Between are the same thing. They're part of the same era. Imagine them together as one album and not as two separate projects, also because that was her initial intent. Even the album we'll get will most likely be part of Prelude and In Between as a whole.
3) It may be as it may not be, my dear 💁🏻‍♀️. We're still getting pieces of their story from both of them, and Laur has basically just started, so 🤷🏻‍♀️.
I hope I've helped you as you wanted 😉.
Tumblr media
Hi again, my dear K 👋🏼😄.
[Hi faby sorry to hear u were ill again I hope ur feeling better now and are taking care of yourself. Glad u remembered me and I also send a virtual hug back ❤️]
🤗🤗🤗🤗
[So the reason I’m not adopting another cat is bc my cat that died Rocky I have her brother still as I adopted them together and he won’t accept another and honestly he’s a little shit 😂]
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 By the way, if I'd known that you have the brother, I'd never have advised you to adopt a new one, especially since he's a little shit and I dare not imagine what he would do to the newcomer 🙈🤣. 
[but I will again I also would love to adopt a dog bur again can’t with him and where I live my landlord don’t allow dogs 🙄]
Let's hope that one day you will also because as a dog lover, I can tell you that having a cat and having a dog are two completely different things 🤣. You'll see hopefully someday 🤞🏼🥰.
[Ur thoughts “🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Oh yeah? And who told them that? Lauren or Camila? Or both of them? Over text, call, or video call? 🤣.” Was exactly my thoughts when I read that theory 🤣🤣 they must of read too many fanfics 😂 then 🙄 this is why we get called delusional 😂]
Yeah, unfortunately 🙄.
[Ur right about fans leaving L she has always been like this just maybe when she was in 5H their team controlled what she posted/says in a way but I am curious as to why she hasn’t changed her image yet and thought she would now being independent she could show more of her true self and stop coming across as a hypocrite but again I never really thought until u mentioned it that’s she comfortable doing what she is and she knows sexualising herself sales. If I’m not mistaken I believe she even posted in her caption b4 how when she posts sexy pics etc it has triple the likes then her music etc does.]
Exactly 😎.
[I also found it hilarious how C’s fans act when she spent all that time in New York getting papped multiple times a day everyday with yoghurt then they split then C disappears from earth and they complain🤣🤣🤣 I don’t understand how they can be so stupid every single time it happens and don’t even get me started on his fans 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️ saying C’s the attention seeker and she needs him to be successful 😂 like he wasn’t papped walking shirtless conveniently on a hiking trail completely empty but somehow a pap just so happens to be there🤣🤣🤣🤣 u can’t make this shit up]
Yeah sure, she's so much attention seeker that I can count on the fingers of one hand how many times she's been papped since they ‘broke up’ again 🤦🏻‍♀️. Contrary to mister please give me attention that three people's fingers wouldn't be enough 🤣. But anyway, you said it yourself: people are stupid 💁🏻‍♀️.
[Also have u heard the AI songs of Camren that shit is good-]
I've listened to them since day one and I keep progressively doing so as new versions come out 😍. And yep, you're absolutely right.
[-and makes me wish they would do a song together better yet a whole ass album can u imagine that?]
Wouldn't that be a dream for all of us 🤣?
[Do u think Camren have heard them? I’m also surprised they haven’t done anything about it.]
Heard or not, they can't do anything about it 🤷🏻‍♀️. Exactly like all the other singers this is happening to. It's still publicity if you think about it.
[I am excited for C’s new music and I hope they give her more freedom where she can really show of her writing and don’t know about u but I would love for her to do some rock/edgy songs. Her NBTS is still one of my favs]
Absofuckinglutely! NBTS as well as Shameless which is one of my favorites, although Shameless is more pop punk rock with a darker edge. I'd love it if she continued to do that and also to re-explore other genres. Like, for example, something trap like in OMG, or electropop like in Crown, or even afrobeat, something new that as a former dancer literally knocked me down, like she did in Ku Lo Sa. *Can you tell that I love everything she does? 😅*
And don't get me wrong, I love love LOVE that she’s primarily a pop singer. That's the main reason why I discovered 5H in the first place in the far back March 2016. I'm just saying that along with pop, I hope she continues to explore other genres and not focus solely on Latin songs like she did for the most part with Familia. Again, don't get me wrong. I love and adore her Latin songs as well and I also understand that she wanted to integrate her culture more into the last album, and I loved them all. I'm just saying that I'd like her to continue to integrate and explore genres in a more varied way (including the Latin ones) as she did before Familia. That's all 😄.
[Hope ur having a nice day/night and are feeling better 😘]
Thank you so much, you're always super kind 🤩. I hope you're doing very well and I hope you're having a nice day/night too 😘. Virtual hug 🤗.
Tumblr media
[HIIII Faby!!! 💜💜💜 ​Me again :P I hope u feel much better and healthier since last time .]
HIIII to you too, my dear purple heart Anon 👋🏼😄. I actually do, thanks 🤗. I'm unfortunately still not 100% yet because it's a long healing process, but I'm better 😊.
[1THANK U SO MUCH for exposing Lauren and Sasha's fake relationship like I asked u to!!!! I'm sure you'll have made many people in doubt happy and u made me laugh a lot as always🤣 .]  
1) It's always a pleasure to help you guys when I can 🥰 and I'm happy to have made you laugh as you hoped, my dear 😉.
[2Wha do u think of the Camren AI images? Aren't they the most beautiful thing?]
2) I obviously loooove them 😍🤩😍🤩 and yeah, they're beautiful 😍🤩😍🤩.
[And of course Camila stays silent while Lauren blocks CS 🤣 .]
Well 🤣 that hasn't changed from the past, right? At least it's a great way to get people to talk about them and keep the fandom alive and they both know it 🤭.
[3Did u see Lauren's last zoom cause OMG 🤣 I thought of u! She was talking about divine energies and said "we all have masculine and feminine within us , we all have to balance these energies in order to be in a space of clarity within ourselves". I rememberd that an anon told u the opposite in an ask and I went to look for your answer because I remembered that u proved them wrong and u were right as always🤣 I mean guys Faby said this 2 years ago and Lauren confirmed it now 0.0 .]
3) I did see it, my dear 😁. I'm surprised you remembered that 🤣. You have an excellent memory!
For those who don't know, the purple heart Anon refers to the LimeWire Zoom that occured on Sep 28, 2023, while this is the ask I answered  https://fa-by.tumblr.com/post/669510575975546880/hey-babies-and-dear-anons-welcome-to-a-new (third to last ask, the one before the two analyses).
[I don't know how u do it honestly Faby . It looks like u have a special and deep understanding of both Camrens as people and I'm always blown away by how u get it right. That's why I trust u completely :D .]
Thank you so much for trusting me completely, my 💜 Anon. It warms my heart 😍😍. And honestly? I think I have it (the special and deep understanding of both Camren as people). And I'm absolutely not saying this to brag or anything like that, I swear. I like to think that I have it because of my personal experiences, because of how I see life, and especially because I love them and have studied them and have always paid attention (even before Laur said so in that tweet).
[For this I wanna thank u .]
No, my dear, THANK YOU ❤️.
[Thnk u for always being available to answer our asks and for always being kind to us.]
I'll always be (unless someone is disrespectful).
[Thank u for always being objective no matter what even when it goes against Camren & their being together and what other CS say .]
I don't lie and I'm pretty realistic as you've perfectly noticed. If something didn't happen, I say so. If something is just a made-up fantasy, I have no problem debunking it. If delusional shit is said just to get attention, I have no trouble telling it like it is.
I don't care. I don't care about any of that. I don't care about the fanfiction imagination that lots of CS unfortunately have of them. I mean, do I want them to be end-game? Hell yeah! But I know there's a chance they might not be. Just as I know that they've both been and that there's a chance that they'll be with other people in the future as has already happened in the past when they broke up.
I just care about the truth, because they're people. They're two flesh-and-blood people with their own lives and their own feelings, and a lot of people still don't understand that. So thank you, my dear. I'm happy that there are people like you who also appreciate my objectivity ❤️.
[Thank u for always being truthful in what u think and always showing proofs of what u say.]
Always ❤️.
[Thank u thank u thank u so much in general I don't know what we'd do without u and your posts. At least me :P .]
And again, no, my dear, THANK YOU ❤️. Thank you for always being kind and polite to me. Thank you for your concern for my health. Thank you for all the ‘HIIII’s I know you write on purpose to distinguish yourself from those you know who don't even greet me before asking. Thank you for all the asks you've been sending me over the years. Thank you for believing in me because, honestly? It's thanks to you and those like you that I'm still here. So THANK YOU in general!❤️
[Have a beautiful day be safe I love u and say hi to your gf. 😘]
Have a beautiful day too 🙃. I'll say hi to my girlfriend when I'll let her read the post live 😄. I love you too, be safe too and take care of yourself 😘.
🤸🏻‍♀‍🤸🏻‍♀‍🤸🏻‍♀‍🤸🏻‍♀‍🤸🏻‍♀‍🤸🏻‍♀‍🤸🏻‍♀‍🤸🏻‍♀‍🤸🏻‍♀‍🤸🏻‍♀‍🤸🏻‍♀‍🤸🏻‍♀‍
Aaand I'm done 👅. Thank you all for your asks and I hope I've been helpful this time too 🙃. As usual, I'm always available for those who have questions, so ask away 😄.
Remember to be nice. Always. Both with others and with yourselves. Be a good example. Be patient. Be safe and take care of yourselves. Don't let our ship sink. Keep shipping them, but please respectfully 🙏🏼. Sending you virtual love and hugs 🤗🤗🤗. I love you, babies. Always with love, F ❤️.

Laucy 2.O
Hiiii babies and dear Anons 👋🏼🤗. I'm back with a new post. And I know, I know, I apologize again for my disappearance but I haven't been well for 3 months and also have been in the hospital again for a week 😭. I don't want to bore you with my health, but I just ask you to be patient again for future posts 😅🙏🏼.
I was answering the asks in my mail when I realized that 2 of them in particular were asking the same thing. I started writing and the more I did, the more I realized how long it was getting and I therefore decided to split it off from the Q&A post I started and which you guys will have, and make it a separate one on today's topic which you can see from the title.
Without further ado, let's go straight to the answers of those 2 asks. Enjoy 🙃.
Tumblr media
HIII to you too, my dear 👋🏼😄. You're the purple heart Anon 🙃. That's how I always mentioned you to my gf, and the fact that you always remembered to say hi to me because you know it's important to me, always distinguished you from others especially because you do it in caps every time and you always make me smile/laugh because I know it's a dig for all those Anons who don't 🤣. Of course I remember you, as you can see 🤗!
1) I'm getting better. Very slowly, but I'm getting better. I still have a lot of medical checks to do but then I hope to finish once and for all because I'm honestly tired of hospital, doctors, and being sick in general 😩. Thank you for your concern and I really hope you're well and healthy 🥰.
2) Of course I can expose them 😉. This post is dedicated to that 😜.
And yeah, I hope they don't steal again because for real then I'd stop doing big analysis like I did in the past for Laucy, for the AMA's 2018, etc. I just want people to respect my decision to not want my stuff off Tumblr and ask me first if they really wanna post anything of mine outside of here, so that we can arrange what’s good for me for them to post and what’s not. That's all.
P.S. you made me laugh with the caps part which I guess was shouted 🤣🤣.
3) Thank you for always being so kind to me, my dear 💜 Anon. I really mean it 🤗. Have a beautiful day too 🙃. My gf says hi too 😄. I love you too and take care 😘.
Tumblr media
Hello to you too, dear Anon 👋🏼😄. Greetings from my gf too 🙃.
It is a pain, and not because you asked, but because of the PR. And not even for the PR per se, but just because it's always the same shit we've seen (and will continue to see) over and over again but with different people. But anyway, let's get into it.
Oh and, small disclaimer. Sasha's pronouns are ze/her/they and I used she/her when I wrote this. I'm explaining this to you guys just to clarify that I didn't misgender her, okay? Good 😇.
Let's start with the new and improved version of Laucy. Welcome to Laucy 2.O, my dear Anon and my dear 💜 Anon, and any other of you babies who are reading.
Sasha Mallory, born on August 6, 1988 (age 35), professional dancer, and runner-up on season 8 of So You Think You Can Dance in 2011 when she was 23. She's worked in many dance companies, music videos, tours of singers such as Madonna, Adam Lambert, and Katy Perry, and done much more. Along with her family, she owns and operates the Mallory Academy of Dance (in Bakersfield California) in which she obviously also teaches.
In my opinion, chosen precisely because of her sexuality (as Laur herself said when talking about the Valentine's Day post in the People article: “Queer representation is important”) and her profession because, unlike Laur's other queer friends who were already her friends anyway and someone new was needed in her life, Sasha's in the industry and travels a lot precisely for the same reason. She ‘understands’ that life. And she certainly benefits from the money made from the contract and, more importantly, the visibility in the industry for her work.
Having explained the basics, let's get down to the facts and the not-so-subtle stages:
The beginning
-  Prelude. For those who don't know, Prelude premiered with a special global livestream via Moment House on October 14 and 15, 2021, but was officially released on November 5, 2021. It took them 6 days to make/film it. On September 11, 2021, Laur received the videos that she included by turning them almost into a documentary (with the help of Matthew Siskin of course, the co-director and co-editor along with Lo), and they started promoting the project on September 14, 2021. Before all this, however, there were the organization and the rehearsals to bring the project to life.
Lauren and Sasha met in mid-August 2021 (roughly the 13th) thanks to Coral Dolphin, the choreographer who took care of Prelude (and the tour).
Tumblr media Tumblr media
To confirm the timeline, these are Laur's very first likes on their profiles (Coral Dolphin, José Gabriel Baez, Sasha, and Triana Steward), except for Aahkilah Cornelius, who didn't even have IG at the time, and Jesse Johnson who didn't post anything in general (not even anything personal) from the time they met (not even Prelude) until 2022 (personal stuff).
- From November 20 to December 1, 2021, Tour: An Evening with Lauren Jauregui. With Laur, Coral direction and choreography, and Sasha and José dancers.
The hang out no longer just professional
- First speculations created on March 12, 2022, after the insta-stories and that post (posted two days later) with the alpacas, with contribution of the tweet to pretend to mislead, but actually start inserting the seed 🧫 into people's heads 🧠:
Tumblr media
A couple of appearances together with other friends: 1) at Banks' concert on Apr 6, 2022, along with *cough* coincidentally and not to publicize two things at the same time *cough*  the announcement of Laur's participation in The Serpentina Tour, 2) at Coachella on Apr 17, 2022, *cough* she didn't go there with Lo and her friends, she was there only because she had to perform/dance with Channel Tres with whom she was booked from Mar 18, 2022, to Dec 31, 2022 *cough*.
- Sasha danced with her and José again (for the last time so far) at the Al Sol Blume Festival on April 30, 2022 (the 3 of them rehearsed from the 27th to the 29th).
Another appearance together on a boat with all of Laur's friends on May 14, 2022.
- Rumors reinforced by the trip to Cuba for Laur's birthday in which I'll underline, there were other people, friends, with them and her brother. *let's water the seed 💧*
Tumblr media
We're just friends, people, isn't it obvious? *Please don't let it be obvious*
Tumblr media
+ denial/fake protection
- Sasha went on the New York (July 27, 2022) and Denver (Aug 2, 2022) tour dates before continuing with her gig for the Channel Tres tour, and on Aug 1st, Laur posted that tweet just to add fuel to the fire. *let's keep watering 💧*
Tumblr media
Lo wished her a happy birthday with a post on Aug 6, 2022.
- On November 29, 2022, Sasha posted a TikTok with the “Reasons Why I'm SINGLE” filter and on December 3, 2022, she replied to someone by saying that she and Lauren were just friends. Both then deleted. Did you have any doubts about it? 😑
In the meantime tho, other appearances together: on Sept 17, 2022, (Aliyah Niambi's insta-story) to celebrate an Aja Monet working achievement, on Oct 30, 2022, for Halloween, on Oct 31, 2022, for the Paramore concert, and on Dec 8, 2022, for Channel Tres tour date in L.A. where Ty was too. *👏🏼🙌🏼 a reunion with 2 PRs, yeeeey 🥳🤣🤣🤣*
“She like who she like”/The confirmation
Tumblr media
- Snow Tha Product EVERYNIGHTNIGHTS PODCAST live streamed on January 12, 2023, in which Laur publicly said for the first time that she was into a woman, specifying “a femme, a non-binary” and choking and freaking out more and more in explaining because she didn't know whether she was defining her the correct way or not. Sasha changed her bio to the one she still has now immediately after: * we're almost there 💧*
Tumblr media
- On January 18, 2023, there was the video on Lauren's Patreon Zoom as they played Uno to confirm even more who she was talking to Snow about, plus the fans' backlash and Laur's obvious reaction to 100% confirm: *has germinated 🌱*
Tumblr media
- The UnitedMasters GRAMMY party (Feb 3, 2023) before the final push, let's call it the oh-so-unpredictable boom of the definitive confirmation of the Valentine's Day post (Feb 14, 2023).
The explanation
- In the Zach Sang Show interview released on March 31, 2023, she said that they'd been together for a year, that there had been attraction from the first moment they danced Don't Wanna Say, and that however, neither of them told the other anything for a while; Sasha because Lauren was her boss and she wanted to be respectful and Laur because she didn’t think it was mutual. She explained that she was the one who made the first move by inviting her over to her house to hang out. They cooked together and only after Sasha left very early, Lo confessed everything to her via text to which Sasha replied that she felt the same way. Laur specified that it happened the night before she left to go back to Miami because she still lived there and still had 3 months of lease for the house.
End of the important stuff (for now)
Now let's talk logic, dates, and bullshit.
Let's break down piece by piece the already checked and verified facts I've listed to you, with what she said on the Zach Sang Show, and let's see what's true and what's not.
1) Taking into consideration the date I believe to be correct, Lauren and Sasha met on August 13, 2021. Attraction from the first moment they danced Don’t Wanna Say: “The chemistry was just crazy. I was like, what the fuck is this? I feel so attracted to you”.
In addition to the promo for Prelude, there was no interaction or public appearance together until the tour.
2) They went on tour from November 20 until December 1, 2021. “And then it was like super low-key. We both had like a crush on each other but didn't say anything about it for a minute”, Sasha because Lauren was her boss and she wanted to be respectful, and Laur because she didn't think it was mutual.
After the tour, again no public appearances together until March 12, 2022 (alpacas). This, this one right here, is the timespan that interests us the most.
3) The first move and the confession: “I invited her to come over to hang out with me and we made dinner together and stuff. And it was a date in my head, but she didn't know it was a date. She thought we were hanging out just casually” - small pause to look at Chantal (her manager Chantal Felice) as she did other times during bullshit - “So she ended up leaving hella early” blah, blah, blah, blah, blah “I sent her this like, really long cute ass message and she was like: what?”
4) The explanation of when it happened: “Actually, that happened right before I left back to Miami. So we were here in L.A. and it was right before I left back to Miami because I was living in Miami at the time. So I had like 3 months still of my lease in Miami. So it was like the day before I left, was when I texted her and was like ‘this is how I feel’. And she was like ‘what the fuck? I feel the same way’ and I was like ‘what?’. So yeah, we had like 3 months in between. - Now we see each other when we can”.
Okay, that day? That dinner ‘they had’ the night before going back to Miami? It never happened. And those 3 months that she wanted to make believe were in Miami? They're not correct.
No surprise there since we know it's all made-up narrative for the PR, but do you wanna know how I know? I know because unfortunately for both Camren, fans save every little thing posted on the internet that concerns them and their lives. I checked. Laur's last night in L.A. was December 18, 2021, and who did she spend it with? WITH CORAL! They had dinner IN A RESTAURANT before going to The Peppermint Club (West Hollywood). The next day (the 19th), Lo was in Miami and returned to Los Angeles on February 5, 2022.
Here you can see the screenshots I took of Laur's insta-stories. One from her last day in Miami on February 4, 2022, with Mateo, the son of her friend Alexa Ferrer, and another one from when she returned to Los Angeles on February 5, 2022, which can be compared with the post Lo published on February 25, 2022, in which she was with her friend Britt (Brittany Martinez-Hewitt):
Tumblr media
Here, however, Coral's insta-story (Dec 18) and the screenshot I took from one of Laur's insta-stories (Dec 19), specifically from the one where she was playing with Cleo:
Tumblr media
You can also compare Coral's insta-story with the post Laur published on December 21, 2021. From slides 6, 7, and 10, you can very well see both how Lo's outfit matches and how it was the same night.
You can also see from Coral's insta-story how it was night outside. It's clearly visible from the glass window behind Laur. And now tell me, is there anything about this picture that makes you think it was Lauren's house or otherwise a house in general? And does it look like Sasha was there? Maybe hidden under the small table that was clearly only for two people and that makes you understand that no one else was with them? 🤣🤣🤣 Sasha wasn't even there that night! They didn't see each other at all! 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤣🤣🤣 So what dinner had and cooked at your house the night before you went to Miami are we talking about, Laur? What in the PR and the alternative universe are you talking about? 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤣🤣🤣
Debunked the dinner, let's move on to the 3 months.
The timespan between December 18, 2021 (last day in L.A.) and February 5, 2022 (return to L.A.) is 1 month and 18 days to be exact. I'm gonna abound by saying they were almost 2 months if I have to, but it's certainly not 3. They don't match the idea that by “I was living in Miami at the time. So I had like 3 months still of my lease in Miami - So yeah, we had like 3 months in between”, she meant to imply that they didn't see each other because she stayed in Miami for 3 months. Yeah, she still had 3 months of lease for the house, but that doesn't mean she stayed there for real as I've shown you. And it can't even be that she was talking about another time period because she's never stayed in Miami for 3 months since she met Sasha in August of 2021.
On the other hand, the timespan between December 18, 2021 (last day in L.A.) and March 12, 2022 (alpacas) is 2 months and 22 days. I can again abound by saying that they were almost 3 months, but only to let Lo get away with it. This does match the “we had like 3 months in between”, but it also proves another lie at the same time.
Remember how I also wrote in the initial list that Sasha was booked to perform with Channel Tres from March 18, 2022, to December 31, 2022? Well, she hadn't left yet for the first date, which was Lollapalooza in Chile (March 18, 2022). So, if Laur was back in town on February 5, 2022, what exactly was the reason they didn't see each other for precisely 1 month and seven days (February 5 to March 12) before that PUBLIC hang-out with Lauren's friends (alpacas)?
If December 18, 2021 (last day in L.A.) and March 12, 2022 (alpacas) match the almost 3 months said on the Zach Sang Show, what exactly was the reason for not seeing each other before the 12th (alpacas)? After not seeing each other since that oh-so-real dinner before Laur returned to Miami, and especially after they confessed to liking each other via texts, do they really want me to believe they waited another month since Lauren was back in town to see each other? And in the company of other people on top of that? Come on now 🤣🤣🤣. After all that waiting, they would've seen each other the moment Laur set foot back in town if it had been a real relationship.
Debunked even the 3 months, let's move on to the part of the interview in which she said they'd been together for a year.
As I said before, the Zach Sang Show interview was released on March 31, 2023. It was filmed definitely a few days prior or in any case in the same month since it was primarily done for the promo of Trust Issues (which was released on the same day as the interview) and In Between. From that, since to Zach's question “How long have you been together?” she answered “We've been together for like a year” and it was March 2023, we can establish that by March 2022 they were already together officially as a couple. Or rather, already since before February 2022 given what Laur said about the Valentine's Day post in the interview with People (May 26, 2023): “We'd been together for a year by that point”.
Neither of them has yet specified what the official date is, but still based on the date of Lo's last day in L.A. because of the so-real ‘dinner and text’ story, we can assume that December 18, 2021, is the specific date on which they officially got together. Unless we'll have anniversary posts in the future.
So, if they've already been together since December 18, 2021, then why instigate/tease Snow during her podcast about the fact that she missed the opportunity to kiss her in the Piña video? Why push her so hard and on several occasions for other things as well?
***I'd like to clarify anyway that I've taken Mila completely out of the equation also because this acting as single people of theirs is something that has been going on for them basically since the X-Factor days (they did, they do, and they have to keep doing it for appearances, or simply when they're mad at each other 😅). All this is just me proving and exposing Laucy 2.O. Okay, let's move on.***
And speaking of Piña, on September 19, 2022, Lauren and Snow did the TikTok live to promote the song by also saying that they would've made the video as soon as they were both in town (L.A.). Which happened in October. On October 5, 2022, @jakehenrythgc posted a picture together with Lo on the set of the video (in the La Cita Bar: bar/live music venue/nightclub in Downtown L.A.). Laur posted an insta-story while watching the full video for the first time on October 26, 2022, and on December 19, 2022, the video was released.
Tumblr media
So if the video was shot on October 5 when Snow missed the opportunity to kiss her, shouldn't that date be calculated in that year with Sasha? Was it crossed off in the calendar and no one told me? If Laur had actually been in a relationship for a year, she wouldn't have insisted so much on the missed opportunity to be kissed by another person even if only professionally. Although we could see in that very podcast how important 'professionally' is to Lauren. So important, she didn't even remember doing it with a guy in the Always Love video 🤦🏻‍♀️🤣.
But back to being serious. If she'd actually been in a relationship for a year, she never would've pressed and pushed Snow's buttons in that way on different things. But no, she instigated/teased her a lot of times by even saying other things outside of Snow specifically, like the fact that she likes to provoke in general even straight girls: “I love making straight girls question who they are” – “I'm just trying to see if you're really as straight as you think you are”.
And with those 2 sentences, I want to remind you all of something she said in Becky G's podcast (the very first reason why I'm here and you guys know me https://fa-by.tumblr.com/post/648191757219250176/there-is-a-light-at-the-end-of-the-tunnel) and how these 2 sentences are yet another proof of how much bullshit she had to say that day to hide her truth:
Wasn't she the one who had an ‘issue flirting with girls’ and who felt ‘disgustingly uncomfortable’ because she felt ‘like a predator’, ‘the aggressor’, ‘the one who was like the masculine energy in the scenario’, because she was ‘always the one turning her’? Wasn't she the one who didn't want to be able to ‘potentially put off that kind of vibe onto someone or invade or like anything like that’? So, WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT? And even with straight girls no less 🤦🏻‍♀️. Please, Lauren, explain yourself? Explain to the audience 🤣. Justify the bullshit you had to say about Camila by succeeding in making a lot of CS leave. Justify the bullshit you had to say in comparison with the truth and reality you said NOW.
All the chickens come home to roost, my friends. Always 🙌🏼. It doesn't matter if years go by, but the truth always comes out 🔥.
Anyway, back to Laucy 2.O. If Lauren had actually been in a relationship for a year, she wouldn't have behaved that way with another person. She wouldn't have done any of that. She wouldn't have behaved the way an available person would. This even proves by itself that the relationship is fake. The fact that she did it during a live podcast and didn't give a damn about all the fans present, proves it even more. Tsk-tsk. In a relationship for a year, HA! Don't make me laugh 😏.
Not to mention the fact that Sasha was (and maybe still is) with Baylie Olsen. Now the engagement you mentioned in the ask, there's no trace of anything like that at all as far as I know, dear Anon. It'll be part of the various bullshit that CS and other ‘fans’ made up 🤷🏻‍♀️ as usual 🙄. What I do know and can prove is the fact that Sasha and Baylie met in early May 2019 during rehearsals for the Eurovision performance which then took place on May 18, 2019, with Madonna.
Tumblr media
They were both backup dancers throughout Madonna's Madame X era including the Madame X Tour which lasted from September 12, 2019, to March 4, 2020. And as you can see here:
Tumblr media
They started dating loooong before August 2021, which is when Lauren and Sasha met, and that they continued to do so at least publicly until April 2022, which is even after the hang-out with the alpacas (March 14, 2022).
Tumblr media
And these are not even all the pictures they commented on and liked on each other 🤣. There are many more that you can very well go see for yourselves on both of their profiles. So “My first Valentine” my ass, Sasha 🤣. Oh and by the way, Laur was obviously aware and supportive of their relationship:
Tumblr media
Going back to talking about the Valentine's Day post instead: “I kinda did it very whimsically. I didn't even tell her I was gonna post it” (Zach Sang Show) – “On Valentine's Day, I did it very impulsively. I didn't even talk with them about it first” (People). Oh yeah sure, because it's totally normal to not talk to your partner about something as unimportant as making it official to the world BEFORE actually doing it, right?
Miss I prefer to live my life off of social media and keep my private life private, Miss confidentiality, Miss privacy in all respects suddenly didn't care. Miss I keep having to pretend that I was outed in 2016 and not that it was all arranged, suddenly just didn't care about doing something like that? Seriously? Suuuure. Sure, sure, sure, Jan, right. No, for real, who believes that? Who can believe that that behavior could have been normal and not something planned/arranged?
Even this alone, does nothing but prove 2 things (again, back to my very first post and Becky G's podcast and all that fake situation they created that I talked about on several occasions): 1) It reconfirms for the umpteenth time the story of the fake coming out arm-in-arm with the PR with Lucrezia um sorry, Lucy. 2) This PR with Sasha.
Why? Because someone who claims to have been haunted by being outed when she wasn't ready, DOESN'T BEHAVE THAT WAY! Someone who claims to have been traumatized by that whole experience, someone who's not an ordinary person but a public figure and therefore double haunt and trauma, DOESN'T DO SOMETHING LIKE THAT! Tell me who, after all that, wouldn't talk to their girlfriend before officially posting something romantic-wise for the first time? Who wouldn't make sure she was okay with it first? Especially since, again, we're not talking about an ordinary person. We're talking about someone famous with 12 million followers on IG.
A person who's actually gone through that kind of trauma, would never dare to do that. It wouldn't even cross their mind because they'd have respect for the person they're with. They’d also take their partner's feelings into consideration. They’d make sure that it would be okay for them even if their partner's out and proud, because they would never want to make someone else experience the trauma they themselves experienced firsthand. And honestly, tell me, does this seem to be the case for Lauren?
What I'm seeing now, from the podcast with KITTENS actually, is that they're using the strategy of showing Lauren's change. Showing more and more how she's healed and how she's more comfortable and open with her sexuality. I'm very happy about it, don't get me wrong. It's about time she could show what she in reality is since she was 17/18 years old. And I'm not even saying it's not true that for years she'd struggled with her internalized homophobia and all the other problems. Hell, we know fully well that's true. And I also understand that she had to suppress herself and follow the narratives mostly to hide Camren, let alone if I don't understand that. I'm just saying that, what I don't like is the way they made her act. Just as it doesn't sit well with me the usual incoherent love propaganda that they've already used in the past. I'll explain myself better.
Oh and, speaking of incoherent love propaganda used before. Is it only me who noticed that since that Valentine's Day post, Lauren's started talking about Sasha in interviews in the exact same way she used to talk about Ty when she was in a PR relationship with him? I mean, no differences? No imagination for something new? No? Just copy and paste? Um, okay… I- um 🤔🤨 I'll shut up 🤐.
Tumblr media
Back to this incoherent love propaganda.
If “We're so solid, and we have such a beautiful foundation and so much trust and love between us” (People), and if “the core-” of their relationship “-is love and respect” as she said in Shannon Boodram's podcast along with other things, then where was this trust and respect when she thought (?):
Zach Sang Show: “Damn is Valentine’s Day. I’m seeing all these people post their babes, I was like, this is my baby. Like I’m in love and I don’t care. I don’t care!” --- “But like I said, Valentine’s Day came, I saw all these cute pictures and I was like, you know what? Me and baby are cute. So I’m gonna post it”.
People: “I'm in love. We'd been together for a year by that point, and I was like, ‘You know what? Fuck it’.” --- “On Valentine's Day, I did it very impulsively. I didn't even talk with them about it first. I was just seeing people post their significant others, and I was just like, ‘Dude, I'm in love. These pictures are so cute. We're so cute. People deserve to see this shit’. Queer representation is important, I think”.
So 🤔 what I grasped from both interviews is that, she did it because she didn't care and because people deserved to see that shit because queer representation is important (although I agree with that last part), but at the same time (?):
Zach Sang Show: “The layer of fame is like a whole thing. But it’s so beyond that. I think the reason I keep my private life private for the most part, is because people are so invasive and projective”. --- “Especially people who say they’re fans”. --- “There’s those other people who just are so attached to you that they feel they have ownership over you and then they just like, trash someone you love and just try to make their lives miserable or make up things about them”. --- “That part is so weird to me, so I try to keep what makes me happy away from people who want to project unhappiness onto it”.
Oh yeah, we all saw that 🤦🏻‍♀️.
I mean, I'm being sarcastic here because she was talking about Sasha's situation, which is not true. But it is the truth in reality. It's the truth that applies in her life and above all with whom? *whispered echo: 🗣️ Cameeeela*
People: “Most of my relationships, I keep under wraps, just because it's really odd to have so many strangers have an opinion about who you're choosing to love or what goes on between the two of you. But I just want to be able to love them out loud and be able to share that with people”. --- “So, people's opinions don't really don't matter. Honestly, for me, it's more so about protecting them and making sure that they don't feel attacked because fans are fans”.
Protect them/her? PROTECT HER? 🤣🤣🤣 How? By exposing her and you guys ‘relationship’ to the world without even telling her? Ahh, okay 🤣🤣🤣🤣. Exposing her for sure keeps people from attacking her precisely because she's your girlfriend, sure, undoubtedly 🤦🏻‍♀️🤣. Mh-hmm, yeah, this way of thinking would've made sooo much sense if the relationship was true 🤦🏻‍♀️🤣.
“There's other fans who call themselves fans that I don't really consider fans. People who feel very possessive over you and feel like they have a right to tell you who you should or should not be with, which is really fascinating to me because you're literally a stranger who's never met me in real life. So it's really interesting that you think about who I should or shouldn't be with. And people have prejudices. Racism is a very real thing, and I don't like when she gets attacked or people send her really crazy-ass messages or send weird messages to her family. I really wanted to avoid that, but it was kind of happening anyways because people assumed we were in a relationship. So I was just like, ‘I guess it doesn't really fully matter at this point’. We just have to ignore those kinds of people as much as we can, because sometimes they're really violent and need to be handled. But for the most part, it's really just harmless, online shit”.
Putting aside the part where I super agree that people need to stop harassing them (Camren) and the people in their lives, let's talk about “I really wanted to avoid that, but it was kind of happening anyways because people assumed we were in a relationship” and “I guess it doesn't really fully matter at this point”.
She really wanted to avoid that, but she did it anyway, because she guessed it didn't really fully matter at that point because people assumed they were in a relationship?? Really??? What kind of protection would this be????
So, wait, wait, wait. From the top.
She wanted to avoid letting people know because she wanted to protect her and make sure she and her family weren't attacked, then Valentine's Day came along and she thought fuck it. Fuck her own privacy, fuck the protection of Sasha and her family, and fuck their trust and respect because, given that she saw people posting their significant other, she whimsically and impulsively decided to do the same. She revealed their relationship to the whole world without TELLING HER ANYTHING FIRST because she didn't care, because people deserved to see that shit because queer representation is important, and because she guessed it didn't really fully matter at that point because people already assumed they were in a relationship.
I mean… WHAT?????
Tumblr media
What in the world? What in the inconsistency? What kind of contradiction is all this? No really. Was all of that more important than her own girlfriend? Seriously?? No, I'm sorry. This is yet another proof of how fake and organized all this is.
From a logical point of view, it's impossible for me to think that Lauren just didn't care. It's impossible to think that she did it by putting all of that above her girlfriend's respect and trust. It's impossible to think they didn't talk about it before posting. It's impossible period.
This is Lauren we’re talking about here! Empathetic, caring, selfless, sensitive, and with a great emotional connection Lauren! The real Lauren would never do something like this. She would never put her own needs before those of someone she cares about. To quote Alastor ‘Mad-Eye’ Moody in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire: ‘End of story. Goodbye. The end.’ Sorry but I had to 😅🤣. The conversation required a final quote 🙃.
But anyway. The bottom line of this charade: supposedly met on August 13, 2021, months without saying they had crushes on each other, non-existent dinner the night before going to Miami after which Laur texted her that she liked her and Sasha reciprocated, and therefore they got together supposedly the same night on December 18, 2021. Throughout all this, Sasha and Baylie were still together even still publicly, and Laur continued to act ‘single’ until Valentine's Day of the following year (2023).
Make it make sense! Make it make sense, seriously! But no hey, we know that a PR relationship MUST create doubts in people's heads and MUST NOT look perfect at all otherwise people would get bored and not speculate about it. Right, my bad I almost forgot 🤦🏻‍♀️.
So, this is the timeline, dear Anon. As for your question “Why would Lauren get into a relationship with someone else who is in a relationship?”, in my opinion, the better question would be ‘why did Sasha agree to do this since she was/maybe still is in a relationship?’. She was/is the one in a normal public relationship contrary to Laur who has a hidden one.
For Lauren it's business and it's convenient for many things. It's a cover for Camren and the songs, and it helps her queer image. Again “Queer representation is important”. But Sasha? Who knows. As I also said at the beginning, she benefits from both the money made from the contract and, more importantly, the visibility in the industry for her work. For the rest, I don't know how it went.
Lauren was looking for a girl for PR. Maybe Lauren was talking about it in general as friends do, and Sasha volunteered. Maybe Sasha talked about it with Baylie who, being an artist and a dancer as well and who therefore understands that lifestyle, agreed with it. Or maybe it was Lo's old management's idea after seeing them dance at the August rehearsal since we know very well how gays think, and they anticipated the reaction that inevitably happened later with the Prelude live. Or maybe it was Lauren's own idea since she has more freedom in her choices and she proposed it to her. I don't know. I don't know this. There's no proof around yet. I can only speculate.
Fact is that I don't see Lauren in a bad light here. It's not the first time she's been portrayed as a homewrecker and a traitor. They tried it before with the Lauren, Lucy, Ty, and Alycia Bella (ex of Ty) square story, and they tried again now with Sasha and Baylie. I didn't fall for it then and I don't fall for it now. You know why? Because it's all fake. I said it before and I also explained it in my PR stunt relationships - ɟ post: a PR relationship MUST create doubts in people's heads and MUST NOT look perfect at all otherwise people would get bored and not speculate about it.
So, dear Anon, the best thing to do in these cases is not to ask yourself questions like “Why would Lauren get into a relationship with someone else who is in a relationship?” since it's all fake and organized to entertain an audience, but it's to not ask yourself these kinds of questions at all precisely because it's all fake and organized to entertain an audience. But if you really have to, ask yourself questions that go arm-in-arm with reality and not Hollywood fiction 😉.
I hope I helped you understand as you hoped 🙃.

Hiiii babies and dear Anons 👋🏼🤗. I'm back with a new Q&A post. Before I start tho, two things:
1) I was unable to do the analyses of those three songs. I apologize to the Anons who asked for them, but I really didn't have the time. It already took me so long to answer these asks and if I'd done those analyses as well, who knows how long before you would've had this post. So, sorry 😅. I hope to be able to do them for the next post 🤞🏼.
2) This long wait was due to the fact that I had various commitments and then I also got ill (for something different from the past) by ending up in the hospital for a day 😭. I'm not healed yet so arm yourselves with patience for future posts as well 😅🙏🏼.
Now without having to still bore you with my problems, let's move on to the answers. Enjoy 🙃.
Tumblr media
Your answers are here in my Only Told the Moon analysis.
Tumblr media
Hi to you too, dear Anon 👋🏼😄. The answer is no, and if you want to know more details, here is my Thinkin’ Bout One analysis (seventh ask).
Tumblr media
Yeah, definitely. For years now and they'll continue to do that.
Tumblr media
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 pure invention from which they'll surely have taken their cue from fanfictions and which they've been trying to pass off as reality for years 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Ups and downs, Anon, I hope your year is going much better than mine 😊.
Tumblr media
Don't we all need Camren in our lives? 🤭 And yep, I'm back, but as I explained in the introduction, I've had commitments and I'm not well again at the moment 😭.
Tumblr media
They still are now. They are real. And yeah, they'll eventually admit it. It will depend on their careers 💁🏻‍♀️.
Tumblr media
Hello to you, my dear @lindy123​ 👋🏼😄. I hope you don't mind that I'm replying here instead of in the comments, and thank you so much for the kind words 🥰. As for Lo's unreleased songs, I obviously loved them 😍! I'm just sorry all 5 are incomplete 🥺 but oh well 🤷🏻‍♀️ she didn't intend to do that and that's why we have them now 😜. As for your question instead, the answer can be found in this old post: Unreleased songs - ɟ.
Tumblr media
My dear Anon, from your welcome back I understand that you've read my past posts, and therefore you know perfectly well what I think of the so-called ‘insiders’ 🙄. I think I've already talked about it enough, but for those who are new to my blog, this is an example: https://fa-by.tumblr.com/post/659001741145243648/if-you-think-el-was-a-fan-account-then-how-do-you.
The signs are still there. Not as often as in the past, but they're still being given to us.
Don't doubt and don't fall into the traps of the bullshit people say. You said you think they're still together, and there must be a reason if you think that. So my advice is to keep using the smart part of you that distinguishes you from the herd of sheep 💪🏼.
Oh and, by the way, hello to you too 👋🏼😄 and thanks for the welcome back 😊.
Tumblr media
You're not considering many other people, Anon. Camila and Dinah shared it with Hoko (Dinah's cousin) and the band (Ashlee Juno, Lauren Fuller, and Michelle “Michel'Le” Baptiste) while Ally, Normani, and Lauren shared it with some members of the tour crew; four if I'm not mistaken because the rest was in another bus. And inside both of the girls’ buses were purposely left empty sleeping places for when their family members joined them and stayed for a few tour dates.
And I know what you're thinking right now: why couldn't the band and those 4 tour crew members be in one bus and 5H + Hoko in the other one? Simple, that was their last year as a group and the narrative dictated the division between the girls. It was one of the many things that served to create speculation, draw even more attention, and sneakily get fans used to already seeing Mila as a solo artist and LAND as a group. As simple as that 💁🏻‍♀️.
Tumblr media
Hey to you, dear Anon 👋🏼😄. And yes, of course. When I wrote “contracts can provide that two people who have already had a PR in the past can have it again in the future”, I meant it. But, and yes, there is a but.
Lauren's independent now, so I'm pretty sure that unless Tymbark's team requests it, it won't happen. Same with Luckless. Even more with her if that's why 🤣 because she has no team or labels to answer to and, even though she’s tried so many times (especially with her PR with Laur), she's not famous. Plus, that PR was made for Laur and therefore it would be up to her to request it again. And it's never gonna happen because she's luckily out of her life (unlike Sasha who, although not a celebrity, has been and still is a part of her life). Rather than have it with her again, I think Laur would rather have PRs with 100 different girls, whether famous or non-famous 🤣.
Have a good day too, dear Anon 🙃.
Tumblr media
Are you the same Anon of the “happy 2023”?
Anyway. There's no way to know for sure. There are several factors to consider. How much notoriety does the artist have? Are they an A-list singer?  How much notoriety does the magazine have? Is it just an interview, or an interview + photoshoot? Is there anything else included in the interview to promote other than the music? Products/brands, feuds, relationships, future projects? It all depends on this and much more.
Like, for example. Is it an interview with a full fashion shoot plus high-level clothes and photographers? It already means that it's an important magazine and that the artist is considered as such and that was most likely wanted. Very important magazines such as are for example Vogue, Elle, and Vanity Fair, are themselves paying the artists and not the other way around. If that's why, in addition to the $100,000-plus earned, the artists receive free clothing, accessories, samples, make-up, and beauty products that they can keep as part of the shoot.
If, on the other hand, we're talking about less important magazines then it depends. (It always depends on the notoriety of the artist, but still.) If the interview is simple enough and the focus is on the music to be promoted, then it's very likely that the artist's team contacted and paid the magazine. Ditto if it's just an article without an interview.
If, on the other hand, there's something else to promote besides music, things change. But even here, it depends. What is this other thing to promote and how important is it? If it's not something really important that can generate lots of clicks, then it doesn't matter. But if it does matter, whether it's a scoop from a new love interest, or a feud with another celebrity, then it's the artists who get paid to release it.
For other types of magazines, however, it doesn't work that way. The mere presence of the artist on their web pages benefits them because fans or readers in general generate clicks. It's a double exposure for both artist and the magazine and therefore a win-win situation. No one pays anyone in this case because it's precisely a free double cross-publicity.

Hello to you too, dear Anon 👋🏼😄.
To answer your questions, well, none of the above. I want you to seriously think about something: if you had a one-on-one business meeting with your supervisor or directly with your boss, would you show up there with your significant other? I really don't think so. You have your meeting and after work, you call or meet directly with your significant other to tell them how it went. Period. That's the reality. Work is work, and you must know how to separate their work and their relationship because it runs exactly as it does for all of us.
Besides, although at the time Maverick managed the group for things related to the group as a whole, Mila was already personally managed by Roger, and therefore LAND and in this specific case Laur, was personally managed by Maverick. Both Roger and Maverick obviously answered to the labels because all labels always have the final decision on everything, but still, the point is that for personal things not related to 5H, Camren were managed by different people.
So as in the example of not bringing your significant other to meetings I gave you earlier, Mila wasn't present during Laur's PRs signings and agreements and vice versa.
I hope you're super well too 🙃 and to know more about how PRs work, read my PR stunt relationships - ɟ post.
Tumblr media
[Faby oh my god I almost dropped my phone when I seen u posted 🤦🏻‍♀️🤣🤣 anyway hi not sure if u remember me but it’s me K 😂 sorry to hear u had not been well and to hear u lost ur dog I too lost my cat last yr she was 13yr and like u I felt like a part of me died with her she was my shadow. Glad to hear u adopted another dog thats the best way is to adopt.]
🤭🤣🤣🤣🤣 hi K! Of course I remember you 🤗! I'm so sorry about your cat 🥺😭, I completely understand. I like to think they'll always stay with us no matter what ❤. Why don't you adopt another one too? Trust me, it would help you a lot and you'd fall in love immediately like I did with my new puppy girl 🥰. Let me know😍.
1) [So with my question is what do u make of so many loyal CS and L’s fans leaving her? A lot has left bc of L’s attitude,how she constantly contradicts herself where fans weren’t able to defend her anymore and how she keep attacking CS.]
As you also said yourself, many got tired of both her behaviors and the fact that she keeps attacking CS. I've also seen that many people got tired of the fact of her sexualizing herself most of the time she posts something, or not going on tour in certain places, etc.
Honestly, all bullshit to me. You know why? Because Lauren has always been this way to the public! The thing that people don't understand, and for years now, is that this is the public image she's always had since they started training them back in the X-Factor days. And for those who don't know, by training them I mean how they started teaching them how to behave in front of cameras, how to answer or avoid certain questions during an interview, etc.
We've always had two Laurens. What's new? They still can't tell them apart? 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️
Public imagine Lauren is the one who has to defend the PRs and attack Camren because she has contracts to comply with. She's the one who's been taught for years that sex sells, and she continues to use this tactic to publicize something simply because she's comfortable doing so. She's the one who has to act and say certain things because it's the only way to stay afloat in the industry, especially now more than ever because she's an independent artist.
The real Lauren, doesn't post much because she lives her life outside of social media. She's the one who started the first spontaneous and free Attunements during the pandemic. She's the one who can't go on world tours like she did when she was with 5H. How should she do it according to them? With what money? With the support of which major label? Do these people really have a hard time understanding the word independent? 🙄😒
Anyway, I still think that these so-called “fans”, which are anything but fans, drop out because things don't go the way they want. News flash, it never will! There's a person behind the artist who's constantly harassed every day and yes, even by those who don't deserve to be called CS. What do they expect her to do when the harassment on her body, her personality, and her life in general has been a daily occurrence for 11 years? For her to even thank them? 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Sure! And what does she actually do instead?: “Naturally inclined to love, but when the love ain't flowin' back, I pull away and reassess, gotta protect me. Push the negative to the side so it's not in front of my eyes, outta sight, outta mind. I need more than 50 feet”.
And in addition to 50 feet., there are songs like Inside, Colors, Scattered, Falling, Healing, EM(oceans), Wolves, Temporary and especially While I’m Alive that also talk about these situations. Hellooo??? No? Nothing? Don't they see i- 🤦🏻‍♀️okay...🤷🏻‍♀️
So, they don't wanna see the reality and go away? It's alright for me, and for her too honestly 🤣. Addio! Adiós! Au revoir! Sayonara! Adeus! Auf Wiedersehen! Do svidaniya! Go support someone who does what you want but that actually has so many faces that you won't even be able to recognize the real one 😉. *said in her voice like in that video when Trump lost the 2020 presidential election* Bah-bye, bitch 👋🏼!
2) [Another question is what do u except from C’s new label-]
I expect much more now 🤣. No jokes aside, I hope that with this new label she can return to the freedom and “glory” of 2017/2018. Unlike the past, I unfortunately still can't tell you what they'll do in my opinion or give you a theory simply because I don't know how they work yet. Ask me again after the first project 😏.
[-and now she changed pr firm?]
Mila didn't change PR firm/agency. She's still part of the WME Agency and you can also see it on Mila's official website itself. She simply also joined the BT PR Agency 😉.
3) [Why post that snippet of a new song with the line Coachella the. Deleted? I’m guessing it’s for the pr but that was desperate even for them. Is her new label the reason for the circus starting again or was it his team like last time or are they trying to make them as the new Justin and Selena?]
Yep, it was 100% just for the PR. And yes, desperate are the Sandalwood team 🥱. And yeah, they tried and tried to make them an important couple like Jelina, but in reality they only succeeded in making them the first fake couple to come up in Google image results when searching for pr relationships 🧐🙈🤣.
4) [What’s ur opinions on some fans claiming the Coachella stunt was nothing to do with their teams but C and L we’re arguing for awhile and C did it to get back at L? Personally I don’t believe that but still curious for ur thoughts]
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Oh yeah? And who told them that? Lauren or Camila? Or both of them? Over text, call, or video call? 🤣. Do they really think people believe that? And above all, do they really think that (C&S) they’re free to do something like this without breaking the contract and without consequences from their teams and labels? I caaaan't! 🤦🏻‍♀️🤣
My thoughts on this? Well, besides these ☝🏼 🤣, I feel sorry for all these people who do everything they can to get 5 min of attention and for those who believe it. But specifically, I'm ashamed to be associated in the same category (CS) as these, to quote Lauren, delusional people. Sorry not sorry 💁🏻‍♀️🙃😁.
5) [What are u expecting C’s new music to sound like?]
She experimented a lot with her music over the years, so I don't know if she'll continue to do that or settle on a specific genre. As I told you in point 2, I still don't know how this new label works, so I can't give you any answers yet.
[From that snippet she shared and how she working with yet another friend of his 🙄-]
Forget that snippet 🤣. She deleted it herself faster than light after a short time because it had its purpose for the Shitmilashow 😴.
[-my expectations have gone down to where I think it’s gonna be a full pr album or at least there gonna make it out to be.]
I don't think complete, but yeah, of course there'll be songs with phrases explicitly changed to imply that they're references to him, unfortunately for my and your ears. But oh well 🤷🏻‍♀️ I've been used to both of them and their PRs for years now.
[Anyway I know that was a lot of questions so I’m gonna leave it there for now 😂 but I have no idea how happy I am to see ur back specially with other blogs who left. I’m glad ur well and still a CS 😏😂 - K]
Don't worry, my dear K, you can always ask me for as many as you like 😄. I don't mind. I'm glad you're happy that I’m back and yes, I'm gonna be a real CS forever 😉. I hope you're well too 😊. A virtual hug 🤗.

Hi to you too, dear Anon 👋🏼😄, and thank you very much🙏🏼 it's good to be back 🤗.
[It's good that you are well despite the adversities I know that you have not promised to answer all the questions that we ask you as often as you did before, but I hope that from time to time in your free time you can answer the questions.]
Yep, that's exactly what I'm gonna do and indeed, here I am answering asks 😜.
[Many things have happened within the fandom, one of them is that Lauren has been in a new “relationship” for a while now, I know you are not aware of the fandom or the girls]
I am aware of everything that happened and continues to happen to the girls, trust me 🤭🤣. Just because I disappeared from here for a while doesn't mean I didn't keep following everything 😉.
[I would like to know your point of view about the new PR?]
For independent artists in general, it's much more difficult to gain visibility and publicity without the backing of a major record label. Luckily for Laur because of her past, she already has a fanbase and therefore doesn't have to build one from scratch, but that doesn't mean it's a lifelong fanbase. Fans come and go for one reason or another, but it's up to the singers/artists to keep people engaged by any means necessary. Why?
Because singers/artists earn and get paid only because people like them. Without fans, there would be no streams for their music and therefore no concerts and tickets&merchandises sales, no interviews, no invitations to events, no awards, no visibility, no publicity, no nothing. Absolutely nothing. No fans equal no money and fame. No fans equal no celebrity. They'd simply go back to being ordinary people like you and me.
So, by “it's up to the singers/artists to keep people engaged by any means necessary” I was also implicitly talking about PRs of course. Just because Laur's independent doesn't mean she has the freedom to do whatever she wants on every front, especially since she's tied to the old legally binding contracts. The industry's rules haven't changed. Lo's been in the industry for almost 11 years and therefore knows very well that especially now that she's independent she has to continue to follow those industry rules to gain visibility and publicity without the backing of a major record label. The only thing that has changed for her now that she's independent is that she has more freedom to pull the strings on some things, and among them, the choice of her PR: Sasha Mallory.
Sasha's nothing more than a rebound for the contract with Lucy Vives. The new Lucy *and I hope they're a good person unlike Lucia*. Sasha is a non-binary friend who's attracted to women and is a dancer, ergo is in the same industry and therefore understands and can perfectly help Lauren on both fronts by also being part of the LGBTQIA+ community. Sasha's the new cover for Camren, especially for the connection in the songs. The purpose of the PR with Sasha is the same as any other PRs: attention, speculation, publicity. That's all, my dear Anon 😄.
Tumblr media
Hi to you too, dear Anon 👋🏼😄. I believe the previous answer answers your questions 🤣. It makes me happy that you're happy that I'm back and I hope you're having a good start to the week as well 🤗.
Tumblr media
I'll copy what I wrote in my previous post: “They're simply testing the waters and creating havoc, aka publicity, before Mila's debut with the new label. That's it 🤷🏻‍♀️. Nothing new. Ignore them as I do.”
Plus, Mila didn't put herself in any position because she can't decide shit 🤣. They put her, again. As I explained in my PR stunt relationships - ɟ post which I recommend you read to better understand how things work 😉, contracts can provide that two people who have already had a PR in the past can have it again in the future.
What is the BIG reason she has for doing this in your opinion other than to get publicity for their future albums? I'm curious to know 😜.
Oh and, dear Anon? I'd appreciate a hi/hey before the questions in the future please. Thanks 🙏🏼 and have a great day too.
Tumblr media
Hi to you too, dear Anon 👋🏼😄. I am now thanks 🤗, I hope you are too.
As for your question, none of the above you listed 🤣. It was Sofi, my dear 🤣.
Tumblr media
Hi to you @camilalauren0327 👋🏼😄!!! No no, I'm here don't worry 🙃. Thanks for stopping by to say hi, I really appreciate it. I hope you're having a great day too 🤗.
Tumblr media
Hello to you too, dear Anon 👋🏼😄. Happy (almost half) 2023 to you too, dear 🥳.
I think (also because of the songs and what Lauren said) that Camila thought and knew that Lauren liked her, especially physically, and that's why they had the fuckbuddies relationship. Mila also knew that Lauren only wanted sex without feelings because she knew Lo was scared and in denial. So she waited. She waited until then she could wait no longer.
P.S. Did you resend an ask you sent me at the beginning of the year? You know, because of the happy 2023.
Tumblr media
Hello to you too, dear Anon 👋🏼😄. Is this soon enough 😜?
1) Yes, I think so 😄.
2) 9 years. All these years. Since 2014 definitely. Not just 2017-2023, but since 2014. I think this simply because even though they had breaks and breakups lasting 3 months at most, they always got back together.
Tumblr media
Hi to you too, dear Anon 👋🏼😄 and thanks. It's an unreleased song called Healing that Mila wrote for The Hurting. The Healing. The Loving. I talked about it here https://fa-by.tumblr.com/post/674774346304290816/hello-babies-and-dear-anons-not-the-qa and here https://fa-by.tumblr.com/post/674845686765862912/wait-faby-so-the-healing-was-cs-song-for-the.
Along with those two posts, I'd like to add that Mila kept the song for years to be able to use it again on a future album, and when the time came, the label had the brilliant idea to change it into a duet to be used with the oh so precious Mr. Mentos (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dfTztRPWwKU released on Apr 23, 2023). The song was eventually scrapped and Mila decided to sell HER solo version thus acting as a ghostwriter. Version that was officially released by FLETCHER in 2021.

Did you miss me?
Hey my babies 👋🏼🤗. How are you? Wow, has it really been that long? It's been 1 year and 2 months apparently and it doesn't seem so 😅. I feel like a part of me should apologize for the absence, so I'm sorry 🙏🏼 but, to be completely honest, the other part of me doesn't want to justify because this is just an app we use to distract ourselves from the reality of daily life 🤭🤣. So, for those who have been wondering, my recap is that I'm 31 now, I've been unhealthy/sick for several things, last year I grieved for my baby girl dog who passed away after 12 years (and who took a piece of my soul with her), I changed my job and I’m being mobbed by my boss every day 😅. The several most important good news? I adopted a beautiful puppy girl in September of this year 😍🤩 and my girlfriend whom you also know well came to me here in Italy twice; once for three months last year, and once for our 2-year anniversary this year by staying for almost a month ❤🥰😍🤩. Oh and, of course, I've started writing again as of today. This obviously has to be put among the good news 🤣. I won't hide from you that I've missed writing, so here I am, although I can't promise that I'll be very active in answering the asks as before due to my various commitments, but I'll try to be here more often 😉.
P.S. I'll only post the 6 most recent asks I've received because I didn't want to create a way too long post, but thanks to everyone for the recent and past messages (even last year's ones) ❤🙏🏼.
Tumblr media
You broke my heart with that emoji 🥺. I'm here, dear @sweet-dreamcs​ ❤.
Tumblr media
I'm here, my dear Anon 😄. I'm all ears 👂🏼 and I've missed all of you too.
Tumblr media
Hello to you too, dear Anon 👋🏼😄, I answered about my health in the recap at the beginning of the post, thanks for your concern 🤗. I'm fine now, how are you? I hope well 😊.
I do still ship Camren, how could I not? 🤣 I'll ship them forever 😜. And yeah, I saw Laur's new “relationship”, if you want to call it that. I, on the other hand, like to call it for what it is: PR. And that I think explains my thoughts about it 😉.
Tumblr media
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 well thank you, my dear Anon😄. I like being right 😉. No, I'm just kidding no, I'm not 🤣. Joking aside now, I've already told you guys in the past that everything I post comes from the research I do and that therefore I post only the truth with proofs.
Anyway, yeah I'm not interested in the version with Señorito 😑, I'm just waiting for Mila's undistorted one now. Oh and, my dear? I'm ready for the thousand questions 🤣.
Tumblr media
I'm here, dear Anon 😄. As you said yourself, they're both PRs, so don't worry. And I mean it for real. I don't know how I could reassure you guys any better than that since you already know how it works. It's not the first time we've endured it and it certainly won't be the last. Be strong as always, my dear 💪🏼. Don't talk about them around on social media because that's what they want, and hang on. That's my advice, my dear.
Tumblr media
Hey to you, dear Anon 👋🏼😄, and I'm okay now. Thanks for asking and I hope you're okay too 😊. Well, how can I answer your question correctly? 🤔🤔
The answer is in your question itself, my dear 🤣. What happened at Coachella and that we saw all over the internet is shit 💩. Yet another display of poor acting. It's as simple as this 🤣. No but, for real. They're simply testing the waters and creating havoc, aka publicity, before Mila's debut with the new label. That's it 🤷🏻‍♀️. Nothing new. Ignore them as I do.

Remember to be nice. Always. Both with others and with yourselves. Be a good example. Be patient. Be safe and take care of yourselves. Don't let our ship sink. Keep shipping them, but please respectfully 🙏🏼. Sending you virtual love and hugs 🤗🤗🤗. I love you, babies. Always with love, F❤️.

Aaaaand lastly, you know how much I love you and how much better my life is since I found you 😍

Only Told the Moon
Hey my babies 👋🏼🤗. As I promised I would, ta-daaah 🎉✨🎊.
So 😁, today I wanna talk to you about the spectral theory of linear operators in Hilbert spaces and tensor analysis.
……
………
…………
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I’m kidding of course 🤣. The title of the post already says today’s topic. You guys thank the K Anon for the ask.
Tumblr media
Hi K 👋🏼😄. Have a nice day too and hope you like it 😊.
So. Camila wrote and produced Only Told the Moon in a hotel room by using GarageBand, a software to create music developed by Apple that can also be used by those who don’t know how to play any musical instrument. A snippet was leaked in 2016, but then the entire song was leaked on Feb 16, 2017. Mila started writing it in 2014 when she was 17, and finished it at 18 the following year in 2015. And when did she ‘say’ that she’d completed it? On Lauren’s birthday:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Why don’t you put an even bigger sign that directly says “THIS IS FOR LAUREN!” next time, Mila? 🤣 I mean, of all days, right on her birthday? Okay 🤣. But thanks tho 😉🤭.
There’s also this one here which I’m pretty sure was another hint to the lyrics:
Tumblr media
We know how much Mila likes the moon:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
We know how much Mila likes the sun and the moon: Ahem-ahem, her sun… 😎
Tumblr media
And this one here… I mean, Mila???? On her birthday the following year? AGAIN??????? 🤣🤣🤣
Tumblr media
But this one… Ooooh, this one! 🤭🤣
Tumblr media
Mila, bish! Are you really gonna tell me that when you posted it, you didn’t know that it was actually the edit of THIS one?
Tumblr media
Little story for you. It was early March 2016 and I’d been in the fandom for a very very short time. This Camren fanart was one of the first I saw. At the time, however, I saw the original. As you can see, this one is cropped and the quality is not the best. I tried to look for the original which was of the same quality as the edited one that Mila posted, but I unfortunately couldn’t find it anywhere. The point is that I saw it. That one was created first. That one was actually the original. Then it was edited, maybe by the same person who created it, but I don’t know that. But I do know with absolute certainty, also because everyone said it at the time, that that one was created first. So, my question remains the same:
Are you really gonna tell me that when you posted it, you didn’t know that it was actually the edit of THIS one?? KARLA CAMILA CABELLO ESTRABAO!!!!!!!!!!! COME ON, NOW!!!! WHO ARE YOU KIDDING???? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
But back to being serious now. We have ‘the classic’ one:
Tumblr media
That’s the famous sun and moon artwork (created by Zias and posted on the artist website DeviantArt). It was the first one to be used by fans as cover art for the song when the snippet was leaked in 2016. We saw Mila use it many times on her social networks:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And we even saw it worn on her sweatshirt on November 27, 2015, in Mexico for The Reflection Tour, both for an interview with Telehit and for the meet & greet:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵 ahem, ahem, anyway.
There are obviously tons of other pics and tweets where Mila talked about the sun and the moon, but I think these ones are enough. Let’s focus on the song now. I love this song 🥰. This song made me realize how talented Mila was, since she was only 17 when she started it. How much of a great songwriter she was already at the time since this is one of the first songs she wrote 100% on her own and without professional help. Then honestly the fact that it was so complex, made me like it 100 times more 😜.
But anyway, I advise you to mentally prepare yourselves because this is the longest interpretation I’ve done so far. Make yourselves a sandwich, or a coffee, or I don’t know, something that can accompany you on the journey 😄. Oh and, as usual, you can even disagree with me, but this is the way I see it 😊.
Okay, ready? Let’s go! 🙌🏼
Verse 1:
“Stay back, stay long
And you, move on
I stress, come close
Move on, please don’t”
One of the things I love the most about this song is how cryptic it is 😍, and I think you know by now how much of a sucker I am for deciphering things 😏. So what do we have here? We have words, but something doesn’t add up. There appear to be holes. As if there were missing pieces of a sentence, right? Well, that’s because it is like that. Or at least, it is for me. On whole sentences, Mila only used a few words. So basically, it was as if she’d removed the rest because the meaning of those words alone, had the same concept as one or more whole sentences. I’ll explain better with an example:
“On my way home after work last night, I tripped on a really dirty sidewalk and fell to my knees by tearing off my new polka dotted pantyhose that I loved, and breaking the heel of my shoe because I was distracted looking at my phone”. Now, that’s the whole sentence. But if I just write “On my way home. I fell. Distracted.” in that same cryptic way, wouldn’t you understand anyway that the fact of the matter is that I fell? Wouldn’t you understand anyway even without the need to know all those details in the whole sentence that my distracted ass was on the ground? I really think so. Oh and, just to clarify, this didn’t really happen. I’m not clumsy and I certainly don’t work in heels 🤣. It was just an example I created for you to understand. Let’s move on 🙃.
So, what was Mila actually talking about? What is the meaning behind it? We have ‘Stay back, stay long’ which makes us understand both their usual back-and-forth/cycle/loop, and how Camila was the one who broke up with Lauren and that then wanted her back. When? When ‘And you, move on’; aka when Laur had found someone else. Oh and, the ‘And you’ is a question. You can notice it by listening to the way she sings it: And you? Move on.
‘I stress, come close - Move on, please don’t’. These two, already at the time (2017) made me understand that Mila wasn’t really talking to Laur. They were just thoughts in her head that she, however, didn’t tell her 100% for pride reasons. She broke up with her, saw that Lo was moving on, and instead of telling her in person how much she wanted her close/back (come close) and how much she didn’t want her to move on (Move on, please don’t), she talked to herself by repeating it (I stress) over and over again in her head. I understood this especially because the ‘Move on’ is a question and the ‘please don’t’ is the reaction to the affirmative answer of the question. It was like: Mila saw Lo with someone else and thought “Is she moving on? Oh, no. No, no, no, no, no, please no!”. As with ‘And you’, if you listen closely, you can clearly hear that it’s a question and that Mila says “Move on? Please don’t”.
Therefore, to recap. Stay back, which literally means that Mila told her to leave her alone/stay away from her, aka the artistic way she used to describe the moment she broke up with her. Then she regretted it. She wanted her back and wanted Lo to stay with her for a long time, aka for good (stay long). But what did Laur do? (And you“?”) She moved on (move on) [Sure, Jan]. And when Mila realized this (Move on“?”), she started thinking by emphasizing/repeating (I stress) in her head over and over again how much she wanted her close/back (come close) because, obviously, she didn’t want Lo to move on (please don’t).
Pre-Chorus 1:
“Hello, how are you? How you’ve been?
Lately I wonder how it feels to steal your kiss
Nothing much, just fine, I’m doing well
And you can read between the lines but God, I fell”
Ohhh, I can read between the lines, baby!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 All kidding aside🤣, I’m serious now. We have another little riddle here. A puzzle, or rather, a game. A game with sentences, a game with the various meanings behind it, and, above all, a game with personal pronouns. Actually, the whole motherfucking song is based on these three things 🤣. But anyway.
With the first two sentences (Hello, how are you? How you’ve been? - Lately I wonder how it feels to steal your kiss), it might have seemed at first as if Mila was asking those questions to Laur, right? Right. And with ‘Nothing much, just fine, I’m doing well - And you can read between the lines but God, I fell’, it might have seemed at first as if Lo had answered her that, right? Right. But then you’ll have stopped for a moment and said “Wait a minute! Hold on, hold on, hold on, wait a fucking minute! If Laur had moved on in the first verse, why on earth would she tell Mila to read between the lines right after telling her she was doing well? [Reading between the lines means finding the subtext/implication, and in this case, I’m doing well, means the exact opposite read between the lines: I’m NOT doing well] It wouldn’t make sense because she would never have admitted it for a pride matter.”
So you must have thought it was the other way around. That it was Lauren the one who was asking Camila those questions, right? Right. But then the confusion will have entered again because, again, if Laur was moving on in the first verse, why after the questions would she have told her that lately she was wondering how it would feel to steal her kiss? Why move on and simply not get back with her as Mila also secretly wanted (I stress, come close - Move on, please don’t)? It would’ve been a contradiction. And therefore you must have thought, “Okay, Lauren asked her the two questions, but everything else in the sentences was just Camila, right? That’s gotta be it. Right? Right.” WROOONG! It’s all wrong 🤣. As I said before, it’s game with sentences, a game with the various meanings behind it, and, above all, a game with personal pronouns.
This song, this whole song is a confession. A confession of how things had gone and how things were still going between Camila and Lauren. A confession that Mila made. To whom? Who was she telling all these things to? The freaking song title is the answer 🤣: Only Told the Moon. For Mila, the moon is a friend. A protector who watches over her and from whom she ‘goes’ to confide, especially when she feels alone.
So. I explained the game in the first verse, but what’s the game in the first pre-chorus?
In the first verse, Mila talked to the moon about what happened between her and Lauren by using the present tense. As if she was reliving the memories. But in reality,  they were things that had already happened. In the first pre-chorus indeed, she used ‘Lately I wonder’; thing that makes us understand how some time had passed since the first verse, that is, since Mila had broken up with Laur to then regretting it while Lo was moving on. In the first pre-chorus, however, Mila explained to the moon the things that had happened in the period after the breakup. She explained to the moon how she was being asked if she was okay, and that even though she answered that she was, she actually wasn’t okay at all. Yeah guys 🤣, it was actually external people who asked those two questions to Camila, and not Lauren to Camila or vice versa. Before you get confused for the umpteenth time 🤣, let me go on so you’ll understand what I mean 🙃.
Read the first pre-chorus in this way by pretending that the two sentences I crossed out don’t exist for a moment, okay?
Hello, how are you? How you’ve been?
Lately I wonder how it feels to steal your kiss
Nothing much, just fine, I’m doing well
And you can read between the lines but God, I fell
Those are two questions and that’s an answer to both. And so far, so good. It’s very simple. I also explained to you that Mila in the song was telling and confessing everything to the moon, and therefore, this also excludes the moon itself from the sentences that I haven’t crossed out. But in the last sentence, on the other hand, we have the moon as a referent (I’ll explain that shortly), and that’s why I said that those who asked Mila those questions were external people. If you still have doubts about it, think about it for a moment. Those are questions you ask a person you haven’t seen for a while, and what sense would it have made for one of them (Camren) to ask the other ‘Hello, how are you? How you’ve been?’ if we know perfectly well that they were together 24-7? 😏
Now that I hope I’ve removed this doubt as well, let’s move on. As I was saying, in the first pre-chorus Mila explained to the moon the things that had happened after the breakup. She explained to the moon how people asked her how she was: Hello, how are you? How you’ve been?. And since she wasn’t okay, those questions immediately made her think of Lo.
You know when you’re talking to someone and your mind spaces out thinking about something else? Maybe because that someone said something that reminded you of that thing that’s distracting you from the conversation. Well, we know how short Camila’s attention span is and how easily distracted she is 🤣. But, while that’s usually funny because, I mean, it’s Camila, and it’s one of the billions of reasons why I love her, in this case of the song, her mind spaced out on Laur because she was suffering for her. So in that timeframe between immediately after the questions and before the answer, and because of the questions, Mila thought about Lo and how she would’ve wanted to kiss her: Lately I wonder how it feels to steal your kiss. It was like, people: “Hello, how are you? How you’ve been?” – Mila by thinking of Laur ‘Lately I wonder how it feels to steal your kiss’ to then answering:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
“Nothing much, just fine, I’m doing well. I’m just as good as an ass sitting on a cactus, thanks for asking. What about you?”.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 All kidding aside now. Immediately after thinking of Laur, Mila came back to reality and, as you saw up here, she answered with the bullshit that she was doing well: Nothing much, just fine, I’m doing well.
Sometimes the people who ask you those questions do it because they’re fond of you and there’s really an interest on their part in knowing how you’re doing. Others, still those ones who are fond of you, ask them to you because they saw or already knew that something was wrong, and it’s their way of letting you vent to help you (sometimes that doesn’t work because you prefer to lie to them despite trusting them simply because you don’t want to talk about it). Then there are those ones who ask you just for gossip and not because they really care about you; especially if they saw that something was wrong, they can’t wait to know the reason to then go gossiping by telling someone else everything. And lastly, there are those ones who ask you just out of courtesy. Like, for example, the typical two-second encounter that happens when you see someone you know: “Heeey, hi, how are you?” whose answer is always “I’m good. How are you?” even if you feel like shit, “I’m good. See ya”, you know? These are questions that you ask others yourself as well. Everyone does and no one really cares about the answer because, whether you’re really okay or not, the answer is always “I’m good/fine/okay” regardless, because you wouldn’t talk about personal matters with someone you don’t trust, and same thing for them towards you.
In Mila’s case, we know that 5H were always surrounded by people. Especially on tour or on promotional weeks, they saw and met people every day. Their team, sound engineers, assistants, photographers, interviewers, fans, etc., etc. People in general. So, “Hello, how are you? How you’ve been?”, whether they were courtesy questions or not, Mila still received them every day even several times a day from different people.
Moving forward we find a slight change of scenery. This is where the moon comes into play as an actual referent. From telling the moon about their breakup and what happened both immediately after and a short while after it, Mila spoke in the present-present by addressing the moon directly: “And you can read between the lines but God, I fell”. Meaning: You, moon, you can read between the lines and understand that I answered those questions with bullshit because I’m not doing well. I broke up with her, she started moving on, I regret it, and now I feel terrible because I miss her. I know she’s kinda dating somebody else, but God, I fell in love with her and I want her back.
I had the confirmation that I was even more right about both first verse and first pre-chorus (and the song in general actually) in the years that followed thanks to five other songs: three unreleased ones and two officially released ones. These songs are: XO (I Don’t Miss Ya) leaked in 2020, Cry for Me officially released in 2019 as a promotional single for Romance, Must Be Love leaked in 2019, Used to This officially released in 2019 with Romance, and Closure leaked in 2022. That one, plus Only Told the Moon, is the order of the music timeline concerning the post-breakup period [XO (I Don’t Miss Ya), Cry for Me, Must Be Love, Used to This, Closure, and Only Told the Moon]. I’ll explain better why to you:
Camren officially got together in early April 2014 and broke up in late November of the same year (Camila was 17). To be precise, it was Mila who broke up with Lo. I’m not just saying that because I understood it from this song (Only Told the Moon) which was the first of those five we had (2017). I’m saying that because Camila herself said it two years later and therefore I had confirmation of it. But we’ll get there shortly. Let me follow the order of the music timeline.
So. Mila broke up with Lo. Their first breakup since they were official. Laur was certainly not happy about it but, she sure as hell behaved as if she were, aka XO (I Don’t Miss Ya). Lo was hurt and, driven by anger, she acted as if she cared neither that Mila broke up with her and the reasons why she did, nor Mila herself. She acted as if she was better off without her. Partially true because soon after, she found someone else to ‘move on with’ briefly.
Examples of what I told you in the song: Lo was hurt and, driven by anger, she acted as if she cared neither that Mila broke up with her and the reasons why she did (So keep your feelings inside of your head. I like you better when you keep em’ there. Don’t let me know, don’t let me know. Unfortunately, I don’t miss ya //// “Don’t let me know, don’t let me know”, funny how exactly two years later [2016], she asked her the exact opposite in Let Me Know [interpretation here, penultimate ask]), nor Mila herself (I don’t need nobody to make me feel good - & - Used to be xo, now we’re exes). She acted as if she was better off without her. (Appreciate it when you’re not around. I like you better when you’re out of town. Better alone, better alone. Unfortunately, I don’t miss ya). Partially true because soon after, she found someone else to ‘move on with’ briefly.
That, on the other hand, resulted in anger in Mila triggered by jealousy, aka I’m Pissed Off You’re Happy (“I’m pissed off you’re happy, you’re happy y-y-y-y-y. I’m pissed off you’re happy, without me e-e-e-e-e”), which in turn years later became what we know as Cry for Me. And now I can tell you when Mila herself said she broke up with her: (here, min 2:31) Camila: “I broke up with somebody, and I was like: ‘okay’. But then, a few days after, I would just see them- just looking so happy, so radiant, like, dating someone else so quickly; and I was like: ‘Wait! Like, that was so- I knew you were gonna move on, but that was really, really fast. Like, I feel jealous that you were able to move on and be happy so much faster than me’”.
So basically: Mila broke up with her and she was like ‘I’m okay with it. I did the right thing’. Lo, hurt, acted like ‘Better this way. I don’t give a shit. I’m happy like this’, and I’m also convinced that it was out of spite that she kinda started dating someone else. And Mila became jealous and angry. It was like, she saw her happy? = “Well, you look so happy walking down the street, don’t you, babe? - & - And you’re okay, you’re okay, how can you be okay? No, why won’t you cry?”. The fact that Lo wasn’t hurt (only according to her since Laur didn’t show it) from the breakup and her, infuriated Mila.
Mila learned that Lo was already dating someone else, and instead of telling her that she wasn’t okay with it, out of even more anger and pride, Mila told her she was happy for her = “When I said I hope you’re happy, didn’t mean it”. Then the increasingly angry and jealous reasoning started in her head, still because, out of pride, she didn’t say anything to Laur: “Never thought you’d be so good at moving on - & - You said that in this lifetime you could never get over me? Are you over me? - & - Who can make you forget about me? - & - I want you to cry for me, cry for me - & - And it’s time you know the feeling”. Lastly followed by the regret of having broken up with Lo and the wanting things back the way they were: “Tears in my eyes, yeah - & - Say you’d die for me, die for me. And if you can’t, then baby, lie for me, lie for me. ‘Cause you haunt me when I’m dreamin’”.
Cry for Me was jealousy, and anger, and pride, but also regret. That’s where Mila realized both that she’d fucked up and that she wanted Laur back. We can also notice the difference between what she actually told her “When I said I hope you’re happy”, and what instead she really thought “didn’t mean it ” & “Move on? Please don’t” of the Only Told the Moon’s first verse. All that, resulted in something else. The realization of being in love with her, aka Must Be Love: “Must be love. Or this wouldn’t hurt so much. And I wouldn’t think so much. And I could just give you up”. The Must Be Love’s falling in love, is a connection that we find both with “And you can read between the lines but God, I fell” in the Only Told the Moon’s pre-chorus, and with “seventeen when I started to fall” in Used to This. If that’s why, we also find it with “And maybe people like me love too much” in Closure, but let’s talk about Used to This first.
Used to This is about the difference in their behaviors between when they were fuckbuddies and when they officially got together. About how Mila was getting used to being her girlfriend. The last part, however, is linked to the other three previous songs (XO (I Don’t Miss Ya), Cry for Me, and Must Be Love), which is when she broke up with her, regretting it and then wanting her back: the parts in the song parenthesis “(I’ll risk it all. Seventeen when I started to fall, but we lost it all, and I just can’t believe it all)”. And yes, guys, it’s seventeen when I started to fall. I, not we. I think you know me by now and that therefore you know that I don’t say bullshit because, unless I’m just telling you my theories and opinions about something, I always do my research before speaking. But in case any of you have any doubts, here. It’s written in the booklet:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Now that you’ve also seen it, can you do Mila (and me too) a favor? Can you please stop saying we? Thanks 🙏🏼🤣. Let’s move on to Closure.
After she realized she was in love with her, the fear of losing her forever set in because, as we’ve seen, Lo was acting as if she didn’t care about Mila anymore (And I hope that you care, that you’re there. It’s killing me - & - But the phone won’t ring ‘cause, darling, do I mean a thing?) and she was moving on with someone else (Then you moved on and I can’t carry on). Mila still had some hope (I want closure. Tell me it’s not over (it can’t be over, it can’t be over). Let me live in my fantasy where you still think of me), but the more time passed, the more she was little by little losing that hope. And we lastly arrive at Only Told the Moon. Last song (so far) that encompasses that chapter before they got back together.
In Only Told the Moon, as I started to explain to you, Mila told the moon everything that had happened from the breakup to the back then present, where her having hope and not giving up was rewarded (you’ll see later in the interpretation). That, in the reality happened at the end of December 2014/early January 2015 where we even saw the appearance of two rings 😏. I talked about it in a fairytale way and therefore not saying about the breakup but only about a fight in the 🗯️ - ɟ post: [Right click on the pic and go to ‘open image in a new tab’.

So that breakup lasted for about a month and a couple of weeks. Now I can go back to my Only Told the Moon ’s interpretation.
So. Brief summary. In the first verse, Camila was like: “So, my friend (moon), it all started like this…”. (Stay back) she broke up with her. She regretted it and wanted her back with her for good (stay long), but (And you“?”, move on) Laur was moving on [Sure, Jan 🤣]. When Mila found out (Move on“?”), she started thinking by emphasizing/repeating (I stress) in her head over and over again how much she wanted her close/back (come close) because, of course, she didn’t want Lo to move on (please don’t). And in the first pre-chorus, Camila began explaining to the moon the things that had happened in the period after the breakup. Mila by still talking to the moon: “People asked me how I was (people: Hello, how are you? How you’ve been?), but before answering them (Mila: Nothing much, just fine, I’m doing well), I was attacked by thoughts about Lauren (Mila, to herself: Lately I wonder how it feels to steal your kiss). And you can imagine my answer was bullshit because, God, I fell in love with her and I feel terrible without her” (Mila: And you can read between the lines but God, I fell).
All very trippy so far, huh? 🤯😏 I know, I know, and we’re not even done yet 🤣. And by the way, how many times have I said that Camila is a fucking genius? Because she is! She’s fucking brilliant!! 😍
Chorus 1:
“I only told the moon, tonight up on the roof
I told her that I’m scared that all my thoughts they look like you
I only told the moon, about the way you move
I asked her to please tell me if you tell things to her too”
I told her. HER: the moon. For those who don’t know, Mila refers to the moon as ‘she/her’ because in Spanish, as well as in Italian, moon is preceded by the feminine definite article, ‘la’. It says ‘la luna’ in Spanish as well as in Italian. In English, however, the article is always the same, ‘the’. It wasn’t difficult for me to understand it at the time, and no, not because for a couple of years now there has been the fashion to use the she/her for every object even when it actually has the masculine definite article as most part of native English speakers do to be cooler (they’re really really funny to me when they do it, by the way 🤣) precisely because they don’t know the difference because of the ‘the’. Nope. It wasn’t difficult for me to understand it at the time, precisely because I’m Italian. But anyway. Let’s go back to the interpretation.
There’s another little game here. For this time, it’s just a change of referent. If in the first verse and in the first pre-chorus Mila was talking directly to the moon, in the first chorus she was talking to Laur instead. But in reality, she wasn’t really talking to her. It’s as if she were imagining doing it. Lauren wasn’t really there, but Camila imagined that she was. She acted by speaking in the same way that she’d have spoken for real to Laur if Lo had really been there with her.
How come I think Camila was talking to her own imaginative creation of Laur and not Lauren herself? Because n°1, Camren weren’t on good terms at the time as we understood in the first verse, aka they didn’t talk to each other. N°2, as I said before, this whole song is a confession Mila made to the moon. And n°3, Mila herself asked the moon to tell her if Laur was thinking of her too in the last sentence of the first chorus. If Mila was really talking to Laur, she wouldn’t have asked the moon to give her her news. Ergo, Laur wasn’t there and Mila was just imagining talking to her.
Mila explained to Lo, aka her imaginative creation of Laur, about how she talked to her, to the moon. How she confided in her. How she told her secrets. Secrets she was comfortable revealing only to her: I only told the moon, tonight up on the roof. Secrets that, as in this case, represented her fear of not being able to think of anything other than her (Lo): I told her that I’m scared that all my thoughts they look like you.
I only told the moon, about the way you move. About the way you move… Ahem-ahem 🤭. I mean, if THAT doesn’t prove she was talking about a girl, I don’t know what would 🤣. Yeah, the song is enigmatic, and Mila tried to confuse the ideas for anyone who listened to it, but this is the only part of the whole song where it’s clear as day that she was talking about a girl. Her girl. And we know that she’s talked about it too before. Two examples that come to my mind now are OMG: “When she drop it bounce back like a yo-yo”, and Crown: “The way you move is serpentine”.
I asked her to please tell me if you tell things to her too. As I mentioned earlier, Mila asked the moon to tell her if Laur was talking about things with her too. She wanted to know if also Lo was telling the moon that she thought of Mila too.
We have three subjects here: I, me: Camila – Her: moon – You: Lauren. I (Mila) asked her (the moon) to please tell me (Mila) if you (Laur) tell things to her (the moon) too.
So basically, throughout the first chorus, Mila (I, me) imagined talking to Lo (you) about what she’d confessed to the moon (her) about her feelings for Laur herself.
BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP *sound effect*

Verse 2:
“Silence. Too loud
Say it, not now”
This is exactly the same thing we saw in the first verse. The same little game of missing pieces of a sentence. The problem with this one, was that it was even more difficult to decipher. It was the most complex part for me to code at the time. Why? Because not only do we find here the connection with everything I’ve explained so far, but even with a part of the second chorus. But let’s go in order.
We know that Mila suffers from OCD. This is a topic I’ve talked about in many of my posts and I need to do it one more time. OCD leads to having intrusive thoughts. You can’t control them even if you want to, and that, leads those thoughts to be continuous. So continuous, that they lead you to obsession, which in turn leads you to act in a way that is too impulsive, compulsive, just to try to distract yourself and not always think about the same thing [obsession and compulsive, two things that we find in the word itself: obsessive-compulsive disorder, OCD]. That, leads you in turn to anxiety because the fear of not being able to stop those thoughts takes over. Now, doesn’t that ring a bell? Don’t you recognize those same words said in the song? No? I’ll give you a hand: “I only told the moon, tonight up on the roof - I told her that I’m scared that all my thoughts they look like you”.
Explanation I’ve now given on the OCD: That, leads you in turn to anxiety because the fear of not being able to stop those thoughts takes over.
Explanation I gave in the first chorus: Mila explained to Lo, aka her imaginative creation of Laur, about how she talked to her, to the moon. How she confided in her. How she told her secrets. Secrets she was comfortable revealing only to her: I only told the moon, tonight up on the roof. Secrets that, as in this case, represented her fear of not being able to think of anything other than her (Lo): I told her that I’m scared that all my thoughts they look like you.
Yeeep. I didn’t explain this in the first chorus because I needed this connection right now because of what I’m about to explain. But before doing that, I’d also like to add how we’ve seen those intrusive, repetitive thoughts about Lo in two other parts as well: 1) I stress, when she started thinking by emphasizing/repeating in her head over and over again how much she wanted her back, and 2) Lately I wonder how it feels to steal your kiss, when her mind spaced out on Laur instead of immediately answering the questions Hello, how are you? How you’ve been?.
Now. By Silence. Too loud, Mila referred to the intrusive thoughts of her OCD. The “Little voices in my head” that we also find in Consequences, you know? And as I said in that interpretation (in the penultimate ask): “By “Little voices in my head” she was referring to the intrusive thoughts of her OCD. Have you ever noticed that when we read, when we write, and when we think, it’s our own voice the one we hear in our head? Well, it’s the same thing that happens with OCD, and Mila was listening to intrusive thoughts whispering to her, or talking to her, or even screaming to her in her mental voice just as it would happen to all of us with any other thought.”
So, again, Silence. Too loud. There was silence outside. Even between them. Another thing that makes us understand they weren’t talking to each other. But in her head? There were those Little voices that were too loud. In this case (because we’re talking about the song and not Mila and OCD in a generic way), they were all about “Lauren, Lauren, Lauren”. Also because, as you’ve seen, Mila herself only told the moon that she was scared that all her thoughts they looked like Lo.
Say it, not now. Still in this case, imagine as if Mila and those Little voices in her head were having a conversation with each other. In reality, Mila was having an internal conversation with herself, but imagine that as Pinocchio with her conscience, aka Jiminy Cricket. The voices were telling her: “Talk to her. Take her back. Tell her you miss her. Tell her you fell in love with her. Tell her how you feel instead of only talking to the moon about it. Tell her how you feel instead of only imagining doing it (as we saw in the first chorus). Say it to her for real. Take the courage and do it!”. By shitting in her pants just at the idea, Mila answered: “Not now. Later on in time, sure, but not now. I’m not ready yet”.
So. I’ve explained to you the connection that there is in the second verse with everything I’ve already explained so far. But, before explaining the part that for me was the most complex to decipher, which is the connection between the second verse and a part of the second chorus, let’s move on to the second pre-chorus. As I said before, let’s go in order.
Pre-Chorus 2:
“So, how are you? How you’ve been?
Lately I wonder how it feels to taste your lips
Nothing much, just fine, I’m doing well
And you can read between the lines but God, I fell”
The second pre-chorus and the first are the same. They don’t have different meanings, but we do find two differences here: the replacement of Hello with So before the questions, and the replacement of steal your kiss with taste your lips.
The two differences don’t change the meaning of the second pre-chorus per se. They’re just indicators of the time that was passing. Mila was still telling and confessing everything to the moon except for the last part in which she referred directly to her. And if first she wondered how it would feel to steal Laur’s kiss, then she wondered how it would feel to taste Laur’s lips. First indicator of the time that was passing.
The second one, which is the replacement of Hello with So before the questions, makes us understand how also other people different from the first ones were asking her those questions. Nothing wrong with that. I mean, as I explained earlier, they’re spontaneous courtesy questions you ask people you know when you see them. Like for example when you and a friend meet for a coffee. Once the two of you have hugged to greet each other, and once you’ve sat down at a table, one of you usually starts the conversation precisely in that way: So, how are you? How you’ve been?
Chorus 2:
“I only told the moon, tonight up on the roof
I told her that I’m scared that all my thoughts they look like you
I only told the moon, about the way you move
I asked her to please tell me if you tell things to her too”
So far, it’s all the same as the first chorus. Immediately after, however, we find an addition that distinguishes them:
“That I give it all to you, I give it all to you, I give it all to you
I only told the moon”
Now I can finally explain to you the connection between the second verse and a part of the second chorus. THIS part of the second chorus.
The first chorus ends with I asked her to please tell me if you tell things to her too. If you combine it with the part following that, which we find here in the second chorus, we get: I asked her to please tell me if you tell things to her too that I give it all to you. And tell me honestly, does that make sense? Nope. It makes no sense. So I told myself that it had to be yet another game. I thought, what if that part (That I give it all to you, I give it all to you, I give it all to you - I only told the moon) has nothing to do with the parts of the choruses that are the same? What if it had another connection with something else here in the song? Well, why the hell not 🤷🏻‍♀️.­­ And that’s how I found it 😏. That’s how I understood that this part of the second chorus had the connection with the second verse.
Small summary of the second verse to make you understand better: Silence. Too loud. Say it, not now. There was silence outside, but in Mila’s head, there were those too loud Little voices she was having a conversation with.
It’s in that conversation that we need to add the second chorus part. And now, that conversation becomes:
Voices: “Talk to her. Take her back. Tell her you miss her. Tell her you fell in love with her. Tell her you give it all to her. All your love. All of yourself because she means the world to you. Tell her how you feel instead of only talking to the moon about it. Tell her how you feel instead of only imagining doing it (as we saw in the first chorus). Say it to her for real. Take the courage and do it!”. By shitting in her pants just at the idea, Mila answered: “Not now. Later on in time, sure, but not now. I’m not ready yet”.
So what are the new key points of the connection? These one: Tell her you give it all to her. All your love. All of yourself because she means the world to you. Tell her how you feel instead of only talking to the moon about it. Tell her how you feel instead of only imagining doing it. Say it to her for real.
“Tell her you give it all to her. All your love. All of yourself because she means the world to you” is actually That I give it all to you.
“Tell her how you feel instead of only talking to the moon about it” is because that’s what Mila did, aka I only told the moon which we find in both choruses.
“Tell her how you feel instead of only imagining doing it (as we saw in the first chorus)”. And what did we see in the first chorus? That Mila was imagining talking to Lo about what she’d confessed to the moon about her feelings for Laur herself.  
“Say it to her for real” But say what to her for real? Answer: “Tell her you miss her. Tell her you fell in love with her. Tell her you give it all to her. All your love. All of yourself because she means the world to you. Tell her how you feel instead of only talking to the moon about it. Tell her how you feel instead of only imagining doing it. …… Take the courage and do it!”. By shitting in her pants just at the idea, Mila answered: “Not now. Later on in time, sure, but not now. I’m not ready yet”.

Basically, the connection between the second verse and a part of the second chorus, is an addition to what the Little voices Mila was having a conversation with told her. The game we find in ‘That I give it all to you, I give it all to you, I give it all to you - I only told the moon’, is that this sentence should be read backwards. I only told the moon that I give it all to you. It’s as simple as that. The Little voices, aka Mila herself, told her to tell Lo all the things I’ve listed, with the addition that we find here that she gives it all to her, instead of only telling the moon or just imagining doing it. 😏
Bridge:
“Ah-ah ah-ah ah-aaah
Ah-ah ah-ah ah-aaah”
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Mila angelically sings this part twice by switching from the lowest to the highest vocal range. There’s actually nothing to interpret here. It’s just something I wanted to include because she gave me goosebumps the first few times I listened to it. That’s all 🤷🏻‍♀️🙃.
“Uuuh-And another love song, will play on the radio, you know”
A love song, aka yet another thing that would’ve made her think about Lo. Here Mila was again imagining talking to Lo as I explained to you in the first chorus. ‘you know’, YOU, Lauren. I explained this to you guys when I told you about the subjects, remember?
“Ah-ah ah-ah ah-aaah
Ah-ah ah-ah ah-aaah
Uuh-And I’ll wait for the moon to lean in close, and say”
Why did the moon have to lean in close to tell her something? Think about that for a moment. When is it that you lean in close to someone in that way? When you want to whisper something, habitually either very close to their face so they can hear, or in their ear. It’s usually something that no one else can hear. A secret. Basically, it’s a metaphor Mila used because their story was secret. Especially in the beginning, very few people knew about them, and if that’s why, their entire story has always been and still is a secret to the world. And I’m talking in a general way of course, not about people who know them.
So it was like: And another love song will play on the radio that will make me think about you, you know, Lauren? And, in the meantime, I’ll wait for the moon to lean in close as if it were a secret because no one knew, and say:
Chorus 3:
“That he only told the moon, tonight up on the roof”
AAAAAnd we have the entry of a fourth subject. At first glance, it might have seemed that Mila was referring to a guy for obvious reasons. At the time, I initially thought that was the one Lo was moving on with, but then I reflected and said to myself: “Naaah. Why on earth would this guy have had to confess to the moon the same things as Mila if he already had the girl (Laur)? Her girl! Not to mention the fact that this guy should’ve seen the moon as a friend and have the same kind of love for her that Mila has. Pfffffft!! Come on! It would’ve been an all too huge coincidence!!! No, no, no, no, no, no, no. Nope. This is just another game. Think, Fa, think. Who is this he?”. I looked at the lyrics again and answered to myself right after: the sun. Remember the explanation I gave you in the first chorus about the ‘she/her’ for the moon? It’s the same thing. Here Mila referred to the sun with ‘he’ because in Spanish, as well as in Italian, the sun is preceded by the masculine definite article. ‘El sol’ in Spanish, and ‘il sole’ in Italian.
So I understood that it was the sun, BUT, and yes, there’s a but, he only told the moon is a game within a game. A double game. In their story, Camila is the moon and Lauren is the sun. Mila herself said that she personifies the sun and the moon a lot as people and that she identifies herself to the moon. I explained everything in an ask of my Inauguration post as you can see here: [Same thing as before. Right click on the pic and go to ‘open image in a new tab’. Go to the tab that has just opened, and click on the image with the magnifying glass with the + sign in it to see and read everything better]
Tumblr media
As I also said in that post, the personification in their story is: Camila: moon. Lauren: sun. The sun and the moon love each other, as do Laur and Mila. Now look at this:
Tumblr media
“i have late night conversations with the moon. she tells me about the sun, and i tell her about you”: i (Mila) have late night conversations with the moon. she (moon) tells me about the sun, and i (Mila) tell her about you (Laur). It’s exactly the same method she used here in the song!
“That he only told the moon, tonight up on the roof”. So in this case, Mila personified the sun. He: sun, aka Lauren. That he only told the moon, tonight up on the roof: That Lauren only told the moon, tonight up on the roof. Her sun only told the moon.
“He told me that he’s scared that all his thoughts they look like you”
Remember earlier that Mila said she was waiting for the moon to lean in close one day to tell her that? [I said one day because Mila used the future: I’ll wait for the moon to lean in close. Meaning: it hadn’t happened yet. She was still just hoping for it]. This means that it was the moon that was talking here. He told me that he’s scared that all his thoughts they look like you: He (the sun, Lauren) told me (the moon) that he’s (Lauren’s) scared that all his (Lauren’s) thoughts they look like you (Camila).
I know that many understood that that he was the sun. I also know that many thought it was the actual sun that was talking to the moon. I know they thought that Mila talked to the moon, Laur to the sun, and that the moon and sun talked to each other by then exchanging that same information to the girls, but that’s not the case. I highly doubt the sun could be found talking to the moon tonight up on the roof. During a lunar eclipse (since they occur in the night)? More likely, but I doubt Mila implied that. Talking tonight up on the roof is a metaphor that indicates something that a person would do when alone and in secret because away from prying ears; meaning: a confession. In this case, as I’ve already told you, confession to whom? Only Told the Moon, aka the fulcrum of the entire song.
So the actual sun had nothing to do with it here and it was the moon that talked in the first person through Camila’s hope. Ergo, something that hadn’t really happened. Mila was waiting for the moon to one day tell her that Laur, and therefore her personification of the sun, had also gone ‘up on the roof’ one night to confide in her, the moon itself. Mila was waiting for the moon to one day lean in close to tell her what? That Laur, her sun, only told her, the moon, that she was scared that all her thoughts they looked like Mila.
Mila speaking: And I’ll (Camila) wait for the moon to lean in close and say [Say what?=] that he (the sun, Lauren) only told the moon, tonight up on the roof. Moon speaking: He (Lauren) told me (the moon) that he’s (Lauren’s) scared that all his (Lauren’s) thoughts they look like you (Camila).
Information passing: Camila was talking to the moon. Camila hoped that her sun (Lauren) would also talk to the moon. The moon was talking to Camila, and for Camila’s hope, also with Lauren, aka her sun.
“I only told the moon, about the way you move
I asked her to please tell me if you tell this to her too”
And back to Camila speaking again. I (Mila) asked her (moon) to please tell me (Mila) if you (Lo) tell this to her (moon) too. Different from I asked her to please tell me if you tell things to her too that we find in the first two choruses. The difference is that, if first Mila asked the moon to tell her if Laur talked about things with her too (if you tell things to her too: things in general), here she asked her to tell her specifically if Lo talked to her about Mila too. About the way Mila moves and if she was scared that all her thoughts they looked like Mila (if you tell this to her too: the exact same things Mila talked about with the moon).
Basically, Mila was hoping that sooner or later the moon would’ve told her in secret that Laur had also confided in her by telling her that all she did was think about Mila too.
Outro:
“That I give it all to you, I give it all to you, I give it all to you
We only told the moon
He, he, ha he, he, ha he
We only told the moon”
Well, well, well. Would you look at that 😏. Putting aside the connection between the second verse and a part of the second chorus that I’ve already explained to you, and the singing part that I added myself, what do we have here? Mila finally knew that Lo too had the same thoughts and the same fears as her. We only told the moon. Literally, it means they both only told the moon, buuut, what the hell is going on? Wasn’t Mila just hoping that Lo would also confide in the moon sooner or later until the third chorus? What had changed?
Their situation. Their situation had changed. They’d gotten back together and that’s why Mila knew and could say with certainty that they only told the moon. We only told the moon was simply another indicator of the time that had passed. The last indicator of the time that had passed! Lyrically speaking, Mila explains that they’d gotten back together and that for that reason, Laur told her that she’d confided in the moon too. The hope that her sun would also talk about her to the moon had become reality. WITH ONLY FIVE WORDS!! 🤯🤯🤯 MASTERMIND! SHE. IS. BRILLIANT.!!!!! 🔥
Remember that when I told you about XO (I Don’t Miss Ya), Cry for Me, Must Be Love, Used to This, and Closure, I told you that Only Told the Moon is the last song (so far) that encompasses that chapter before they got back together? Mila started writing it when she thought it was really over between them. When she thought she’d lost her for real. When her hope was fading more and more. This was the last song of acceptance and hope in getting back together with her before actually getting back together with her. And the following year, when she by then had already been back with her for some time, she finished it by being able to insert the happy ending as well. One of the best-hidden things in my opinion 🤩.
Mila used these riddles, these games with sentences, with the various meanings behind them, and, above all, with personal pronouns, with the sole purpose of trying to confuse the ideas for anyone who listened to the song; as I also told you in the first chorus. She only used four subjects in the song, but she twisted pronouns and meanings on purpose. For most of the song, there was: the moon, she/her – the sun, aka Lauren, he - Lauren, you - and lastly Camila herself, I/me. The amazing thing, is that she managed to perfectly confuse things. Like for example the fact that she used the you for Lauren in order not to make it clear that she was talking about a girl. For fear that people who wouldn’t understand that with she/her she meant the moon and not a girl, she also inserted the he, which however, in this case, was the sun aka Lo, and not a guy. A motherfucking genius, I told you! 😍😍😍 And all this at just 17 years old with no professional help from fucking anyone!!!!!! 🤩🤩🤩
Last thing before I go. Something that my baby @romanticentropy​ reminded me of because I was way too focused on seeing things in that year (2014). This beautiful song, also has a lil connection with another unreleased song that Mila wrote in 2018: Taxi. “We’ll tell the moon when we’re old. The greatest love story that’s never been told”.
That We’ll tell the moon when we’re old, is connected to this We only told the moon. This makes us understand that Camren only told the moon about them since 2014, they’ve continued and continue to do so now in the present, and will continue to tell the moon about their greatest love story that’s never been told even when they’re old. The little hope that Mila gave me is the fact that she didn’t insert the only there that time. So maybe, MAYBE they won’t tell their greatest love story only to the moon 😍🤞🏼🙏🏼. But 🤫🤐.

hi just wanted to say thank you for your analysis on only told the moon! i was wondering if it was okay to make a complication of camila songs based on the timeline you made on this analysis and uploaded it to youtube?
Hi to you too, dear Anon 👋🏼😄. Don't thank me, dear, it was a pleasure for me to do it albeit very slowly because my computer is broken and shuts down every 10 minutes 😒. But anyway, thank you so much for asking and not stealing it directly as it happened to me in the past. For real, thank you truly 🤗.
As for the question, what do you mean by "to make a complication of camila songs based on the timeline you made on this analysis"? Do you mean like a list? Like for instance, Only Told the Moon: 2014? Or do you mean to copy the things I wrote? Could you please explain better to me what you wanna do, dear?

Only Told the Moon
Hey my babies 👋🏼🤗. As I promised I would, ta-daaah 🎉✨🎊.
So 😁, today I wanna talk to you about the spectral theory of linear operators in Hilbert spaces and tensor analysis.
 …
……
………
…………
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I'm kidding of course 🤣. The title of the post already says today's topic. You guys thank the K Anon for the ask.
Tumblr media
Hi K 👋🏼😄. Have a nice day too and hope you like it 😊.
So. Camila wrote and produced Only Told the Moon in a hotel room by using GarageBand, a software to create music developed by Apple that can also be used by those who don’t know how to play any musical instrument. A snippet was leaked in 2016, but then the entire song was leaked on Feb 16, 2017. Mila started writing it in 2014 when she was 17, and finished it at 18 the following year in 2015. And when did she ‘say’ that she'd completed it? On Lauren's birthday:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Why don't you put an even bigger sign that directly says “THIS IS FOR LAUREN!” next time, Mila? 🤣 I mean, of all days, right on her birthday? Okay 🤣. But thanks tho 😉🤭.
There's also this one here which I'm pretty sure was another hint to the lyrics:
Tumblr media
We know how much Mila likes the moon:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
We know how much Mila likes the sun and the moon: Ahem-ahem, her sun… 😎
Tumblr media
And this one here... I mean, Mila???? On her birthday the following year? AGAIN??????? 🤣🤣🤣
Tumblr media
But this one... Ooooh, this one! 🤭🤣
Tumblr media
Mila, bish! Are you really gonna tell me that when you posted it, you didn't know that it was actually the edit of THIS one?
Tumblr media
Little story for you. It was early March 2016 and I'd been in the fandom for a very very short time. This Camren fanart was one of the first I saw. At the time, however, I saw the original. As you can see, this one is cropped and the quality is not the best. I tried to look for the original which was of the same quality as the edited one that Mila posted, but I unfortunately couldn't find it anywhere. The point is that I saw it. That one was created first. That one was actually the original. Then it was edited, maybe by the same person who created it, but I don't know that. But I do know with absolute certainty, also because everyone said it at the time, that that one was created first. So, my question remains the same:
Are you really gonna tell me that when you posted it, you didn't know that it was actually the edit of THIS one?? KARLA CAMILA CABELLO ESTRABAO!!!!!!!!!!! COME ON, NOW!!!! WHO ARE YOU KIDDING???? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
But back to being serious now. We have ‘the classic’ one:
Tumblr media
That's the famous sun and moon artwork (created by Zias and posted on the artist website DeviantArt). It was the first one to be used by fans as cover art for the song when the snippet was leaked in 2016. We saw Mila use it many times on her social networks:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And we even saw it worn on her sweatshirt on November 27, 2015, in Mexico for The Reflection Tour, both for an interview with Telehit and for the meet & greet:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵 ahem, ahem, anyway.
There are obviously tons of other pics and tweets where Mila talked about the sun and the moon, but I think these ones are enough. Let's focus on the song now. I love this song 🥰. This song made me realize how talented Mila was, since she was only 17 when she started it. How much of a great songwriter she was already at the time since this is one of the first songs she wrote 100% on her own and without professional help. Then honestly the fact that it was so complex, made me like it 100 times more 😜.
But anyway, I advise you to mentally prepare yourselves because this is the longest interpretation I've done so far. Make yourselves a sandwich, or a coffee, or I don't know, something that can accompany you on the journey 😄. Oh and, as usual, you can even disagree with me, but this is the way I see it 😊.
Okay, ready? Let's go! 🙌🏼
Verse 1:
“Stay back, stay long
And you, move on
I stress, come close
Move on, please don't”
One of the things I love the most about this song is how cryptic it is 😍, and I think you know by now how much of a sucker I am for deciphering things 😏. So what do we have here? We have words, but something doesn't add up. There appear to be holes. As if there were missing pieces of a sentence, right? Well, that's because it is like that. Or at least, it is for me. On whole sentences, Mila only used a few words. So basically, it was as if she'd removed the rest because the meaning of those words alone, had the same concept as one or more whole sentences. I'll explain better with an example:
“On my way home after work last night, I tripped on a really dirty sidewalk and fell to my knees by tearing off my new polka dotted pantyhose that I loved, and breaking the heel of my shoe because I was distracted looking at my phone”. Now, that's the whole sentence. But if I just write “On my way home. I fell. Distracted.” in that same cryptic way, wouldn't you understand anyway that the fact of the matter is that I fell? Wouldn't you understand anyway even without the need to know all those details in the whole sentence that my distracted ass was on the ground? I really think so. Oh and, just to clarify, this didn't really happen. I'm not clumsy and I certainly don't work in heels 🤣. It was just an example I created for you to understand. Let's move on 🙃.
So, what was Mila actually talking about? What is the meaning behind it? We have ‘Stay back, stay long’ which makes us understand both their usual back-and-forth/cycle/loop, and how Camila was the one who broke up with Lauren and that then wanted her back. When? When ‘And you, move on’; aka when Laur had found someone else. Oh and, the ‘And you’ is a question. You can notice it by listening to the way she sings it: And you? Move on.
‘I stress, come close - Move on, please don't’. These two, already at the time (2017) made me understand that Mila wasn't really talking to Laur. They were just thoughts in her head that she, however, didn't tell her 100% for pride reasons. She broke up with her, saw that Lo was moving on, and instead of telling her in person how much she wanted her close/back (come close) and how much she didn't want her to move on (Move on, please don't), she talked to herself by repeating it (I stress) over and over again in her head. I understood this especially because the ‘Move on’ is a question and the ‘please don't’ is the reaction to the affirmative answer of the question. It was like: Mila saw Lo with someone else and thought “Is she moving on? Oh, no. No, no, no, no, no, please no!”. As with ‘And you’, if you listen closely, you can clearly hear that it's a question and that Mila says “Move on? Please don't”.
Therefore, to recap. Stay back, which literally means that Mila told her to leave her alone/stay away from her, aka the artistic way she used to describe the moment she broke up with her. Then she regretted it. She wanted her back and wanted Lo to stay with her for a long time, aka for good (stay long). But what did Laur do? (And you“?”) She moved on (move on) [Sure, Jan]. And when Mila realized this (Move on“?”), she started thinking by emphasizing/repeating (I stress) in her head over and over again how much she wanted her close/back (come close) because, obviously, she didn't want Lo to move on (please don't).
Pre-Chorus 1:
“Hello, how are you? How you've been?
Lately I wonder how it feels to steal your kiss
Nothing much, just fine, I'm doing well
And you can read between the lines but God, I fell”
Ohhh, I can read between the lines, baby!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 All kidding aside🤣, I'm serious now. We have another little riddle here. A puzzle, or rather, a game. A game with sentences, a game with the various meanings behind it, and, above all, a game with personal pronouns. Actually, the whole motherfucking song is based on these three things 🤣. But anyway.
With the first two sentences (Hello, how are you? How you've been? - Lately I wonder how it feels to steal your kiss), it might have seemed at first as if Mila was asking those questions to Laur, right? Right. And with ‘Nothing much, just fine, I'm doing well - And you can read between the lines but God, I fell’, it might have seemed at first as if Lo had answered her that, right? Right. But then you'll have stopped for a moment and said “Wait a minute! Hold on, hold on, hold on, wait a fucking minute! If Laur had moved on in the first verse, why on earth would she tell Mila to read between the lines right after telling her she was doing well? [Reading between the lines means finding the subtext/implication, and in this case, I'm doing well, means the exact opposite read between the lines: I'm NOT doing well] It wouldn't make sense because she would never have admitted it for a pride matter.”
So you must have thought it was the other way around. That it was Lauren the one who was asking Camila those questions, right? Right. But then the confusion will have entered again because, again, if Laur was moving on in the first verse, why after the questions would she have told her that lately she was wondering how it would feel to steal her kiss? Why move on and simply not get back with her as Mila also secretly wanted (I stress, come close - Move on, please don't)? It would've been a contradiction. And therefore you must have thought, “Okay, Lauren asked her the two questions, but everything else in the sentences was just Camila, right? That's gotta be it. Right? Right.” WROOONG! It's all wrong 🤣. As I said before, it’s game with sentences, a game with the various meanings behind it, and, above all, a game with personal pronouns.
This song, this whole song is a confession. A confession of how things had gone and how things were still going between Camila and Lauren. A confession that Mila made. To whom? Who was she telling all these things to? The freaking song title is the answer 🤣: Only Told the Moon. For Mila, the moon is a friend. A protector who watches over her and from whom she ‘goes’ to confide, especially when she feels alone.
So. I explained the game in the first verse, but what's the game in the first pre-chorus?
In the first verse, Mila talked to the moon about what happened between her and Lauren by using the present tense. As if she was reliving the memories. But in reality,  they were things that had already happened. In the first pre-chorus indeed, she used ‘Lately I wonder’; thing that makes us understand how some time had passed since the first verse, that is, since Mila had broken up with Laur to then regretting it while Lo was moving on. In the first pre-chorus, however, Mila explained to the moon the things that had happened in the period after the breakup. She explained to the moon how she was being asked if she was okay, and that even though she answered that she was, she actually wasn't okay at all. Yeah guys 🤣, it was actually external people who asked those two questions to Camila, and not Lauren to Camila or vice versa. Before you get confused for the umpteenth time 🤣, let me go on so you'll understand what I mean 🙃.
Read the first pre-chorus in this way by pretending that the two sentences I crossed out don't exist for a moment, okay?
Hello, how are you? How you’ve been?
Lately I wonder how it feels to steal your kiss
Nothing much, just fine, I’m doing well
And you can read between the lines but God, I fell
Those are two questions and that’s an answer to both. And so far, so good. It's very simple. I also explained to you that Mila in the song was telling and confessing everything to the moon, and therefore, this also excludes the moon itself from the sentences that I haven't crossed out. But in the last sentence, on the other hand, we have the moon as a referent (I'll explain that shortly), and that's why I said that those who asked Mila those questions were external people. If you still have doubts about it, think about it for a moment. Those are questions you ask a person you haven't seen for a while, and what sense would it have made for one of them (Camren) to ask the other ‘Hello, how are you? How you've been?’ if we know perfectly well that they were together 24-7? 😏
Now that I hope I've removed this doubt as well, let's move on. As I was saying, in the first pre-chorus Mila explained to the moon the things that had happened after the breakup. She explained to the moon how people asked her how she was: Hello, how are you? How you've been?. And since she wasn't okay, those questions immediately made her think of Lo.
You know when you're talking to someone and your mind spaces out thinking about something else? Maybe because that someone said something that reminded you of that thing that's distracting you from the conversation. Well, we know how short Camila's attention span is and how easily distracted she is 🤣. But, while that's usually funny because, I mean, it's Camila, and it's one of the billions of reasons why I love her, in this case of the song, her mind spaced out on Laur because she was suffering for her. So in that timeframe between immediately after the questions and before the answer, and because of the questions, Mila thought about Lo and how she would've wanted to kiss her: Lately I wonder how it feels to steal your kiss. It was like, people: “Hello, how are you? How you've been?” – Mila by thinking of Laur ‘Lately I wonder how it feels to steal your kiss’ to then answering:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
“Nothing much, just fine, I'm doing well. I'm just as good as an ass sitting on a cactus, thanks for asking. What about you?”.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 All kidding aside now. Immediately after thinking of Laur, Mila came back to reality and, as you saw up here, she answered with the bullshit that she was doing well: Nothing much, just fine, I'm doing well.
Sometimes the people who ask you those questions do it because they're fond of you and there's really an interest on their part in knowing how you're doing. Others, still those ones who are fond of you, ask them to you because they saw or already knew that something was wrong, and it's their way of letting you vent to help you (sometimes that doesn't work because you prefer to lie to them despite trusting them simply because you don't want to talk about it). Then there are those ones who ask you just for gossip and not because they really care about you; especially if they saw that something was wrong, they can't wait to know the reason to then go gossiping by telling someone else everything. And lastly, there are those ones who ask you just out of courtesy. Like, for example, the typical two-second encounter that happens when you see someone you know: “Heeey, hi, how are you?” whose answer is always “I'm good. How are you?” even if you feel like shit, “I'm good. See ya”, you know? These are questions that you ask others yourself as well. Everyone does and no one really cares about the answer because, whether you're really okay or not, the answer is always “I'm good/fine/okay” regardless, because you wouldn't talk about personal matters with someone you don't trust, and same thing for them towards you.
In Mila's case, we know that 5H were always surrounded by people. Especially on tour or on promotional weeks, they saw and met people every day. Their team, sound engineers, assistants, photographers, interviewers, fans, etc., etc. People in general. So, “Hello, how are you? How you've been?”, whether they were courtesy questions or not, Mila still received them every day even several times a day from different people.
Moving forward we find a slight change of scenery. This is where the moon comes into play as an actual referent. From telling the moon about their breakup and what happened both immediately after and a short while after it, Mila spoke in the present-present by addressing the moon directly: “And you can read between the lines but God, I fell”. Meaning: You, moon, you can read between the lines and understand that I answered those questions with bullshit because I’m not doing well. I broke up with her, she started moving on, I regret it, and now I feel terrible because I miss her. I know she's kinda dating somebody else, but God, I fell in love with her and I want her back.
I had the confirmation that I was even more right about both first verse and first pre-chorus (and the song in general actually) in the years that followed thanks to five other songs: three unreleased ones and two officially released ones. These songs are: XO (I Don’t Miss Ya) leaked in 2020, Cry for Me officially released in 2019 as a promotional single for Romance, Must Be Love leaked in 2019, Used to This officially released in 2019 with Romance, and Closure leaked in 2022. That one, plus Only Told the Moon, is the order of the music timeline concerning the post-breakup period [XO (I Don’t Miss Ya), Cry for Me, Must Be Love, Used to This, Closure, and Only Told the Moon]. I'll explain better why to you:
Camren officially got together in early April 2014 and broke up in late November of the same year (Camila was 17). To be precise, it was Mila who broke up with Lo. I'm not just saying that because I understood it from this song (Only Told the Moon) which was the first of those five we had (2017). I'm saying that because Camila herself said it two years later and therefore I had confirmation of it. But we'll get there shortly. Let me follow the order of the music timeline.
So. Mila broke up with Lo. Their first breakup since they were official. Laur was certainly not happy about it but, she sure as hell behaved as if she were, aka XO (I Don’t Miss Ya). Lo was hurt and, driven by anger, she acted as if she cared neither that Mila broke up with her and the reasons why she did, nor Mila herself. She acted as if she was better off without her. Partially true because soon after, she found someone else to ‘move on with’ briefly.
Examples of what I told you in the song: Lo was hurt and, driven by anger, she acted as if she cared neither that Mila broke up with her and the reasons why she did (So keep your feelings inside of your head. I like you better when you keep em' there. Don't let me know, don't let me know. Unfortunately, I don’t miss ya //// “Don't let me know, don't let me know”, funny how exactly two years later [2016], she asked her the exact opposite in Let Me Know [interpretation here, penultimate ask]), nor Mila herself (I don’t need nobody to make me feel good - & - Used to be xo, now we're exes). She acted as if she was better off without her. (Appreciate it when you’re not around. I like you better when you're out of town. Better alone, better alone. Unfortunately, I don’t miss ya). Partially true because soon after, she found someone else to ‘move on with’ briefly.
That, on the other hand, resulted in anger in Mila triggered by jealousy, aka I'm Pissed Off You're Happy (“I'm pissed off you're happy, you're happy y-y-y-y-y. I'm pissed off you're happy, without me e-e-e-e-e”), which in turn years later became what we know as Cry for Me. And now I can tell you when Mila herself said she broke up with her: (here, min 2:31) Camila: “I broke up with somebody, and I was like: ‘okay’. But then, a few days after, I would just see them- just looking so happy, so radiant, like, dating someone else so quickly; and I was like: ‘Wait! Like, that was so- I knew you were gonna move on, but that was really, really fast. Like, I feel jealous that you were able to move on and be happy so much faster than me’”.
So basically: Mila broke up with her and she was like ‘I’m okay with it. I did the right thing’. Lo, hurt, acted like ‘Better this way. I don't give a shit. I'm happy like this’, and I'm also convinced that it was out of spite that she kinda started dating someone else. And Mila became jealous and angry. It was like, she saw her happy? = “Well, you look so happy walking down the street, don't you, babe? - & - And you're okay, you're okay, how can you be okay? No, why won't you cry?”. The fact that Lo wasn't hurt (only according to her since Laur didn't show it) from the breakup and her, infuriated Mila.
Mila learned that Lo was already dating someone else, and instead of telling her that she wasn't okay with it, out of even more anger and pride, Mila told her she was happy for her = “When I said I hope you're happy, didn't mean it”. Then the increasingly angry and jealous reasoning started in her head, still because, out of pride, she didn't say anything to Laur: “Never thought you'd be so good at moving on - & - You said that in this lifetime you could never get over me? Are you over me? - & - Who can make you forget about me? - & - I want you to cry for me, cry for me - & - And it's time you know the feeling”. Lastly followed by the regret of having broken up with Lo and the wanting things back the way they were: “Tears in my eyes, yeah - & - Say you'd die for me, die for me. And if you can't, then baby, lie for me, lie for me. 'Cause you haunt me when I'm dreamin'”.
Cry for Me was jealousy, and anger, and pride, but also regret. That's where Mila realized both that she'd fucked up and that she wanted Laur back. We can also notice the difference between what she actually told her “When I said I hope you're happy”, and what instead she really thought “didn't mean it ” & “Move on? Please don't” of the Only Told the Moon's first verse. All that, resulted in something else. The realization of being in love with her, aka Must Be Love: “Must be love. Or this wouldn't hurt so much. And I wouldn't think so much. And I could just give you up”. The Must Be Love's falling in love, is a connection that we find both with “And you can read between the lines but God, I fell” in the Only Told the Moon's pre-chorus, and with “seventeen when I started to fall” in Used to This. If that's why, we also find it with “And maybe people like me love too much” in Closure, but let's talk about Used to This first.
Used to This is about the difference in their behaviors between when they were fuckbuddies and when they officially got together. About how Mila was getting used to being her girlfriend. The last part, however, is linked to the other three previous songs (XO (I Don’t Miss Ya), Cry for Me, and Must Be Love), which is when she broke up with her, regretting it and then wanting her back: the parts in the song parenthesis “(I'll risk it all. Seventeen when I started to fall, but we lost it all, and I just can't believe it all)”. And yes, guys, it's seventeen when I started to fall. I, not we. I think you know me by now and that therefore you know that I don't say bullshit because, unless I'm just telling you my theories and opinions about something, I always do my research before speaking. But in case any of you have any doubts, here. It's written in the booklet:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Now that you've also seen it, can you do Mila (and me too) a favor? Can you please stop saying we? Thanks 🙏🏼🤣. Let's move on to Closure.
After she realized she was in love with her, the fear of losing her forever set in because, as we've seen, Lo was acting as if she didn't care about Mila anymore (And I hope that you care, that you're there. It's killing me - & - But the phone won't ring 'cause, darling, do I mean a thing?) and she was moving on with someone else (Then you moved on and I can't carry on). Mila still had some hope (I want closure. Tell me it's not over (it can't be over, it can't be over). Let me live in my fantasy where you still think of me), but the more time passed, the more she was little by little losing that hope. And we lastly arrive at Only Told the Moon. Last song (so far) that encompasses that chapter before they got back together.
In Only Told the Moon, as I started to explain to you, Mila told the moon everything that had happened from the breakup to the back then present, where her having hope and not giving up was rewarded (you'll see later in the interpretation). That, in the reality happened at the end of December 2014/early January 2015 where we even saw the appearance of two rings 😏. I talked about it in a fairytale way and therefore not saying about the breakup but only about a fight in the 🗯️ - ɟ post: [Right click on the pic and go to ‘open image in a new tab’.

So that breakup lasted for about a month and a couple of weeks. Now I can go back to my Only Told the Moon 's interpretation.
So. Brief summary. In the first verse, Camila was like: “So, my friend (moon), it all started like this...”. (Stay back) she broke up with her. She regretted it and wanted her back with her for good (stay long), but (And you“?”, move on) Laur was moving on [Sure, Jan 🤣]. When Mila found out (Move on“?”), she started thinking by emphasizing/repeating (I stress) in her head over and over again how much she wanted her close/back (come close) because, of course, she didn't want Lo to move on (please don't). And in the first pre-chorus, Camila began explaining to the moon the things that had happened in the period after the breakup. Mila by still talking to the moon: “People asked me how I was (people: Hello, how are you? How you've been?), but before answering them (Mila: Nothing much, just fine, I'm doing well), I was attacked by thoughts about Lauren (Mila, to herself: Lately I wonder how it feels to steal your kiss). And you can imagine my answer was bullshit because, God, I fell in love with her and I feel terrible without her” (Mila: And you can read between the lines but God, I fell).
All very trippy so far, huh? 🤯😏 I know, I know, and we're not even done yet 🤣. And by the way, how many times have I said that Camila is a fucking genius? Because she is! She's fucking brilliant!! 😍
Chorus 1:
“I only told the moon, tonight up on the roof
I told her that I'm scared that all my thoughts they look like you
I only told the moon, about the way you move
I asked her to please tell me if you tell things to her too”
I told her. HER: the moon. For those who don't know, Mila refers to the moon as ‘she/her’ because in Spanish, as well as in Italian, moon is preceded by the feminine definite article, ‘la’. It says ‘la luna’ in Spanish as well as in Italian. In English, however, the article is always the same, ‘the’. It wasn't difficult for me to understand it at the time, and no, not because for a couple of years now there has been the fashion to use the she/her for every object even when it actually has the masculine definite article as most part of native English speakers do to be cooler (they're really really funny to me when they do it, by the way 🤣) precisely because they don't know the difference because of the ‘the’. Nope. It wasn't difficult for me to understand it at the time, precisely because I'm Italian. But anyway. Let's go back to the interpretation.
There's another little game here. For this time, it's just a change of referent. If in the first verse and in the first pre-chorus Mila was talking directly to the moon, in the first chorus she was talking to Laur instead. But in reality, she wasn't really talking to her. It's as if she were imagining doing it. Lauren wasn't really there, but Camila imagined that she was. She acted by speaking in the same way that she'd have spoken for real to Laur if Lo had really been there with her.
How come I think Camila was talking to her own imaginative creation of Laur and not Lauren herself? Because n°1, Camren weren't on good terms at the time as we understood in the first verse, aka they didn't talk to each other. N°2, as I said before, this whole song is a confession Mila made to the moon. And n°3, Mila herself asked the moon to tell her if Laur was thinking of her too in the last sentence of the first chorus. If Mila was really talking to Laur, she wouldn't have asked the moon to give her her news. Ergo, Laur wasn't there and Mila was just imagining talking to her.
Mila explained to Lo, aka her imaginative creation of Laur, about how she talked to her, to the moon. How she confided in her. How she told her secrets. Secrets she was comfortable revealing only to her: I only told the moon, tonight up on the roof. Secrets that, as in this case, represented her fear of not being able to think of anything other than her (Lo): I told her that I'm scared that all my thoughts they look like you.
I only told the moon, about the way you move. About the way you move… Ahem-ahem 🤭. I mean, if THAT doesn't prove she was talking about a girl, I don't know what would 🤣. Yeah, the song is enigmatic, and Mila tried to confuse the ideas for anyone who listened to it, but this is the only part of the whole song where it's clear as day that she was talking about a girl. Her girl. And we know that she's talked about it too before. Two examples that come to my mind now are OMG: “When she drop it bounce back like a yo-yo”, and Crown: “The way you move is serpentine”.
I asked her to please tell me if you tell things to her too. As I mentioned earlier, Mila asked the moon to tell her if Laur was talking about things with her too. She wanted to know if also Lo was telling the moon that she thought of Mila too.
We have three subjects here: I, me: Camila – Her: moon – You: Lauren. I (Mila) asked her (the moon) to please tell me (Mila) if you (Laur) tell things to her (the moon) too.
So basically, throughout the first chorus, Mila (I, me) imagined talking to Lo (you) about what she'd confessed to the moon (her) about her feelings for Laur herself.
BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP *sound effect*

Verse 2:
“Silence. Too loud
Say it, not now”
This is exactly the same thing we saw in the first verse. The same little game of missing pieces of a sentence. The problem with this one, was that it was even more difficult to decipher. It was the most complex part for me to code at the time. Why? Because not only do we find here the connection with everything I've explained so far, but even with a part of the second chorus. But let's go in order.
We know that Mila suffers from OCD. This is a topic I've talked about in many of my posts and I need to do it one more time. OCD leads to having intrusive thoughts. You can't control them even if you want to, and that, leads those thoughts to be continuous. So continuous, that they lead you to obsession, which in turn leads you to act in a way that is too impulsive, compulsive, just to try to distract yourself and not always think about the same thing [obsession and compulsive, two things that we find in the word itself: obsessive-compulsive disorder, OCD]. That, leads you in turn to anxiety because the fear of not being able to stop those thoughts takes over. Now, doesn't that ring a bell? Don't you recognize those same words said in the song? No? I'll give you a hand: “I only told the moon, tonight up on the roof - I told her that I'm scared that all my thoughts they look like you”.
Explanation I've now given on the OCD: That, leads you in turn to anxiety because the fear of not being able to stop those thoughts takes over.
Explanation I gave in the first chorus: Mila explained to Lo, aka her imaginative creation of Laur, about how she talked to her, to the moon. How she confided in her. How she told her secrets. Secrets she was comfortable revealing only to her: I only told the moon, tonight up on the roof. Secrets that, as in this case, represented her fear of not being able to think of anything other than her (Lo): I told her that I'm scared that all my thoughts they look like you.
Yeeep. I didn't explain this in the first chorus because I needed this connection right now because of what I'm about to explain. But before doing that, I'd also like to add how we've seen those intrusive, repetitive thoughts about Lo in two other parts as well: 1) I stress, when she started thinking by emphasizing/repeating in her head over and over again how much she wanted her back, and 2) Lately I wonder how it feels to steal your kiss, when her mind spaced out on Laur instead of immediately answering the questions Hello, how are you? How you've been?.
Now. By Silence. Too loud, Mila referred to the intrusive thoughts of her OCD. The “Little voices in my head” that we also find in Consequences, you know? And as I said in that interpretation (in the penultimate ask): “By “Little voices in my head” she was referring to the intrusive thoughts of her OCD. Have you ever noticed that when we read, when we write, and when we think, it’s our own voice the one we hear in our head? Well, it’s the same thing that happens with OCD, and Mila was listening to intrusive thoughts whispering to her, or talking to her, or even screaming to her in her mental voice just as it would happen to all of us with any other thought.”
So, again, Silence. Too loud. There was silence outside. Even between them. Another thing that makes us understand they weren't talking to each other. But in her head? There were those Little voices that were too loud. In this case (because we're talking about the song and not Mila and OCD in a generic way), they were all about “Lauren, Lauren, Lauren”. Also because, as you've seen, Mila herself only told the moon that she was scared that all her thoughts they looked like Lo.
Say it, not now. Still in this case, imagine as if Mila and those Little voices in her head were having a conversation with each other. In reality, Mila was having an internal conversation with herself, but imagine that as Pinocchio with her conscience, aka Jiminy Cricket. The voices were telling her: “Talk to her. Take her back. Tell her you miss her. Tell her you fell in love with her. Tell her how you feel instead of only talking to the moon about it. Tell her how you feel instead of only imagining doing it (as we saw in the first chorus). Say it to her for real. Take the courage and do it!”. By shitting in her pants just at the idea, Mila answered: “Not now. Later on in time, sure, but not now. I'm not ready yet”.
So. I've explained to you the connection that there is in the second verse with everything I've already explained so far. But, before explaining the part that for me was the most complex to decipher, which is the connection between the second verse and a part of the second chorus, let's move on to the second pre-chorus. As I said before, let's go in order.
Pre-Chorus 2:
“So, how are you? How you've been?
Lately I wonder how it feels to taste your lips
Nothing much, just fine, I'm doing well
And you can read between the lines but God, I fell”
The second pre-chorus and the first are the same. They don't have different meanings, but we do find two differences here: the replacement of Hello with So before the questions, and the replacement of steal your kiss with taste your lips.
The two differences don't change the meaning of the second pre-chorus per se. They're just indicators of the time that was passing. Mila was still telling and confessing everything to the moon except for the last part in which she referred directly to her. And if first she wondered how it would feel to steal Laur’s kiss, then she wondered how it would feel to taste Laur’s lips. First indicator of the time that was passing.
The second one, which is the replacement of Hello with So before the questions, makes us understand how also other people different from the first ones were asking her those questions. Nothing wrong with that. I mean, as I explained earlier, they're spontaneous courtesy questions you ask people you know when you see them. Like for example when you and a friend meet for a coffee. Once the two of you have hugged to greet each other, and once you've sat down at a table, one of you usually starts the conversation precisely in that way: So, how are you? How you've been?
Chorus 2:
“I only told the moon, tonight up on the roof
I told her that I'm scared that all my thoughts they look like you
I only told the moon, about the way you move
I asked her to please tell me if you tell things to her too”
So far, it's all the same as the first chorus. Immediately after, however, we find an addition that distinguishes them:
“That I give it all to you, I give it all to you, I give it all to you
I only told the moon”
Now I can finally explain to you the connection between the second verse and a part of the second chorus. THIS part of the second chorus.
The first chorus ends with I asked her to please tell me if you tell things to her too. If you combine it with the part following that, which we find here in the second chorus, we get: I asked her to please tell me if you tell things to her too that I give it all to you. And tell me honestly, does that make sense? Nope. It makes no sense. So I told myself that it had to be yet another game. I thought, what if that part (That I give it all to you, I give it all to you, I give it all to you - I only told the moon) has nothing to do with the parts of the choruses that are the same? What if it had another connection with something else here in the song? Well, why the hell not 🤷🏻‍♀️.­­ And that's how I found it 😏. That's how I understood that this part of the second chorus had the connection with the second verse.
Small summary of the second verse to make you understand better: Silence. Too loud. Say it, not now. There was silence outside, but in Mila's head, there were those too loud Little voices she was having a conversation with.
It's in that conversation that we need to add the second chorus part. And now, that conversation becomes:
Voices: “Talk to her. Take her back. Tell her you miss her. Tell her you fell in love with her. Tell her you give it all to her. All your love. All of yourself because she means the world to you. Tell her how you feel instead of only talking to the moon about it. Tell her how you feel instead of only imagining doing it (as we saw in the first chorus). Say it to her for real. Take the courage and do it!”. By shitting in her pants just at the idea, Mila answered: “Not now. Later on in time, sure, but not now. I'm not ready yet”.
So what are the new key points of the connection? These one: Tell her you give it all to her. All your love. All of yourself because she means the world to you. Tell her how you feel instead of only talking to the moon about it. Tell her how you feel instead of only imagining doing it. Say it to her for real.
“Tell her you give it all to her. All your love. All of yourself because she means the world to you” is actually That I give it all to you.
“Tell her how you feel instead of only talking to the moon about it” is because that's what Mila did, aka I only told the moon which we find in both choruses.
“Tell her how you feel instead of only imagining doing it (as we saw in the first chorus)”. And what did we see in the first chorus? That Mila was imagining talking to Lo about what she'd confessed to the moon about her feelings for Laur herself.  
“Say it to her for real” But say what to her for real? Answer: “Tell her you miss her. Tell her you fell in love with her. Tell her you give it all to her. All your love. All of yourself because she means the world to you. Tell her how you feel instead of only talking to the moon about it. Tell her how you feel instead of only imagining doing it. …... Take the courage and do it!”. By shitting in her pants just at the idea, Mila answered: “Not now. Later on in time, sure, but not now. I'm not ready yet”.
😎😎😎😎😎😎😎
Basically, the connection between the second verse and a part of the second chorus, is an addition to what the Little voices Mila was having a conversation with told her. The game we find in ‘That I give it all to you, I give it all to you, I give it all to you - I only told the moon’, is that this sentence should be read backwards. I only told the moon that I give it all to you. It's as simple as that. The Little voices, aka Mila herself, told her to tell Lo all the things I've listed, with the addition that we find here that she gives it all to her, instead of only telling the moon or just imagining doing it. 😏
Bridge:
“Ah-ah ah-ah ah-aaah
Ah-ah ah-ah ah-aaah”
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Mila angelically sings this part twice by switching from the lowest to the highest vocal range. There's actually nothing to interpret here. It's just something I wanted to include because she gave me goosebumps the first few times I listened to it. That's all 🤷🏻‍♀️🙃.
“Uuuh-And another love song, will play on the radio, you know”
A love song, aka yet another thing that would've made her think about Lo. Here Mila was again imagining talking to Lo as I explained to you in the first chorus. ‘you know’, YOU, Lauren. I explained this to you guys when I told you about the subjects, remember?
“Ah-ah ah-ah ah-aaah
Ah-ah ah-ah ah-aaah
Uuh-And I’ll wait for the moon to lean in close, and say”
Why did the moon have to lean in close to tell her something? Think about that for a moment. When is it that you lean in close to someone in that way? When you want to whisper something, habitually either very close to their face so they can hear, or in their ear. It's usually something that no one else can hear. A secret. Basically, it's a metaphor Mila used because their story was secret. Especially in the beginning, very few people knew about them, and if that's why, their entire story has always been and still is a secret to the world. And I'm talking in a general way of course, not about people who know them.
So it was like: And another love song will play on the radio that will make me think about you, you know, Lauren? And, in the meantime, I’ll wait for the moon to lean in close as if it were a secret because no one knew, and say:
Chorus 3:
“That he only told the moon, tonight up on the roof”
AAAAAnd we have the entry of a fourth subject. At first glance, it might have seemed that Mila was referring to a guy for obvious reasons. At the time, I initially thought that was the one Lo was moving on with, but then I reflected and said to myself: “Naaah. Why on earth would this guy have had to confess to the moon the same things as Mila if he already had the girl (Laur)? Her girl! Not to mention the fact that this guy should've seen the moon as a friend and have the same kind of love for her that Mila has. Pfffffft!! Come on! It would've been an all too huge coincidence!!! No, no, no, no, no, no, no. Nope. This is just another game. Think, Fa, think. Who is this he?”. I looked at the lyrics again and answered to myself right after: the sun. Remember the explanation I gave you in the first chorus about the ‘she/her’ for the moon? It's the same thing. Here Mila referred to the sun with ‘he’ because in Spanish, as well as in Italian, the sun is preceded by the masculine definite article. ‘El sol’ in Spanish, and ‘il sole’ in Italian.
So I understood that it was the sun, BUT, and yes, there's a but, he only told the moon is a game within a game. A double game. In their story, Camila is the moon and Lauren is the sun. Mila herself said that she personifies the sun and the moon a lot as people and that she identifies herself to the moon. I explained everything in an ask of my Inauguration post as you can see here: [Same thing as before. Right click on the pic and go to ‘open image in a new tab’. Go to the tab that has just opened, and click on the image with the magnifying glass with the + sign in it to see and read everything better]
Tumblr media
As I also said in that post, the personification in their story is: Camila: moon. Lauren: sun. The sun and the moon love each other, as do Laur and Mila. Now look at this:
Tumblr media
“i have late night conversations with the moon. she tells me about the sun, and i tell her about you”: i (Mila) have late night conversations with the moon. she (moon) tells me about the sun, and i (Mila) tell her about you (Laur). It's exactly the same method she used here in the song!
“That he only told the moon, tonight up on the roof”. So in this case, Mila personified the sun. He: sun, aka Lauren. That he only told the moon, tonight up on the roof: That Lauren only told the moon, tonight up on the roof. Her sun only told the moon.
“He told me that he’s scared that all his thoughts they look like you”
Remember earlier that Mila said she was waiting for the moon to lean in close one day to tell her that? [I said one day because Mila used the future: I’ll wait for the moon to lean in close. Meaning: it hadn't happened yet. She was still just hoping for it]. This means that it was the moon that was talking here. He told me that he’s scared that all his thoughts they look like you: He (the sun, Lauren) told me (the moon) that he’s (Lauren’s) scared that all his (Lauren’s) thoughts they look like you (Camila).
I know that many understood that that he was the sun. I also know that many thought it was the actual sun that was talking to the moon. I know they thought that Mila talked to the moon, Laur to the sun, and that the moon and sun talked to each other by then exchanging that same information to the girls, but that’s not the case. I highly doubt the sun could be found talking to the moon tonight up on the roof. During a lunar eclipse (since they occur in the night)? More likely, but I doubt Mila implied that. Talking tonight up on the roof is a metaphor that indicates something that a person would do when alone and in secret because away from prying ears; meaning: a confession. In this case, as I’ve already told you, confession to whom? Only Told the Moon, aka the fulcrum of the entire song.
So the actual sun had nothing to do with it here and it was the moon that talked in the first person through Camila's hope. Ergo, something that hadn't really happened. Mila was waiting for the moon to one day tell her that Laur, and therefore her personification of the sun, had also gone ‘up on the roof’ one night to confide in her, the moon itself. Mila was waiting for the moon to one day lean in close to tell her what? That Laur, her sun, only told her, the moon, that she was scared that all her thoughts they looked like Mila.
Mila speaking: And I’ll (Camila) wait for the moon to lean in close and say [Say what?=] that he (the sun, Lauren) only told the moon, tonight up on the roof. Moon speaking: He (Lauren) told me (the moon) that he’s (Lauren’s) scared that all his (Lauren’s) thoughts they look like you (Camila).
Information passing: Camila was talking to the moon. Camila hoped that her sun (Lauren) would also talk to the moon. The moon was talking to Camila, and for Camila's hope, also with Lauren, aka her sun.
“I only told the moon, about the way you move
I asked her to please tell me if you tell this to her too”
And back to Camila speaking again. I (Mila) asked her (moon) to please tell me (Mila) if you (Lo) tell this to her (moon) too. Different from I asked her to please tell me if you tell things to her too that we find in the first two choruses. The difference is that, if first Mila asked the moon to tell her if Laur talked about things with her too (if you tell things to her too: things in general), here she asked her to tell her specifically if Lo talked to her about Mila too. About the way Mila moves and if she was scared that all her thoughts they looked like Mila (if you tell this to her too: the exact same things Mila talked about with the moon).
Basically, Mila was hoping that sooner or later the moon would've told her in secret that Laur had also confided in her by telling her that all she did was think about Mila too.
Outro:
“That I give it all to you, I give it all to you, I give it all to you
We only told the moon
He, he, ha he, he, ha he
We only told the moon”
Well, well, well. Would you look at that 😏. Putting aside the connection between the second verse and a part of the second chorus that I've already explained to you, and the singing part that I added myself, what do we have here? Mila finally knew that Lo too had the same thoughts and the same fears as her. We only told the moon. Literally, it means they both only told the moon, buuut, what the hell is going on? Wasn't Mila just hoping that Lo would also confide in the moon sooner or later until the third chorus? What had changed?
Their situation. Their situation had changed. They'd gotten back together and that's why Mila knew and could say with certainty that they only told the moon. We only told the moon was simply another indicator of the time that had passed. The last indicator of the time that had passed! Lyrically speaking, Mila explains that they’d gotten back together and that for that reason, Laur told her that she’d confided in the moon too. The hope that her sun would also talk about her to the moon had become reality. WITH ONLY FIVE WORDS!! 🤯🤯🤯 MASTERMIND! SHE. IS. BRILLIANT.!!!!! 🔥
Remember that when I told you about XO (I Don’t Miss Ya), Cry for Me, Must Be Love, Used to This, and Closure, I told you that Only Told the Moon is the last song (so far) that encompasses that chapter before they got back together? Mila started writing it when she thought it was really over between them. When she thought she'd lost her for real. When her hope was fading more and more. This was the last song of acceptance and hope in getting back together with her before actually getting back together with her. And the following year, when she by then had already been back with her for some time, she finished it by being able to insert the happy ending as well. One of the best-hidden things in my opinion 🤩.
Mila used these riddles, these games with sentences, with the various meanings behind them, and, above all, with personal pronouns, with the sole purpose of trying to confuse the ideas for anyone who listened to the song; as I also told you in the first chorus. She only used four subjects in the song, but she twisted pronouns and meanings on purpose. For most of the song, there was: the moon, she/her – the sun, aka Lauren, he - Lauren, you - and lastly Camila herself, I/me. The amazing thing, is that she managed to perfectly confuse things. Like for example the fact that she used the you for Lauren in order not to make it clear that she was talking about a girl. For fear that people who wouldn't understand that with she/her she meant the moon and not a girl, she also inserted the he, which however, in this case, was the sun aka Lo, and not a guy. A motherfucking genius, I told you! 😍😍😍 And all this at just 17 years old with no professional help from fucking anyone!!!!!! 🤩🤩🤩
Last thing before I go. Something that my baby @romanticentropy​ reminded me of because I was way too focused on seeing things in that year (2014). This beautiful song, also has a lil connection with another unreleased song that Mila wrote in 2018: Taxi. “We'll tell the moon when we're old. The greatest love story that's never been told”.
That We'll tell the moon when we're old, is connected to this We only told the moon. This makes us understand that Camren only told the moon about them since 2014, they've continued and continue to do so now in the present, and will continue to tell the moon about their greatest love story that's never been told even when they’re old. The little hope that Mila gave me is the fact that she didn't insert the only there that time. So maybe, MAYBE they won't tell their greatest love story only to the moon 😍🤞🏼🙏🏼. But 🤫🤐.

Aaand that's it 😉. This is my interpretation. The way I solved the riddles 🧐. I hope you liked it, and I hope I didn't cause too many headaches 😅🤭🤣. See you next time 😘.
Remember to be nice. Always. Both with others and with yourselves. Be a good example. Be patient. Be safe and take care of yourselves. Don't let our ship sink. Keep shipping them, but please respectfully 🙏🏼. Sending you virtual love and hugs 🤗🤗🤗. I love you, babies. Always with love, F ❤️.
  P.S. happy valentine's day to all of you, my babies 🌹🌹🌹 (it's already past midnight here 🙃). But happy valentine's day to you especially, baby 👭🏻💓 [@romanticentropy​]. It's been exactly one year since we chatted for the very first time:
Tumblr media
And tomorrow, the 15th, it will be exactly one year since I wrote this valentine's post, 🌹 - ɟ, which, however, was posted the next day:

Hi faby! So Like Friends Do and Closure leaked. Can you do an analysis? And when do you think they fit in camren timeline?
Hi to you too, dear Anon 👋🏼😄. Yeah, I know, they were leaked last night and I still have to emotionally recover because I'm still like this on the floor:
Tumblr media
Especially because of Like Friends Do. And not just because it's a song I've been waiting for basically forever, but also because I didn't expect it to be like that at all. I didn't expect AT ALL the game of their two povs in reverse!!! That, made me even more dead:
Tumblr media
All kidding aside now, yes, of course I can do the analysis and automatically tell you where they are in the timeline as well 😊. The only thing is that you'll have to wait for a while. I haven't fixed my computer yet because I couldn't find a good technician. In the meantime, I'm working anyway on a song analysis requested by an Anon (not really an Anon because they then introduced themselves to me; if you're reading, hi, K 👋🏼😁) despite my computer freezing every 10 minutes.
Tumblr media
This was their ask. Sooo, you guys will have Only Told the Moon first because it's really long and because it's the first ask in my inbox, and then the Q&A with all the other asks. Maybe, most likely, I'll include your ask in that Q&A. Don't worry, my dear, I promise you'll have it. I always answer all my asks even if sometimes, for one reason or another, I do it late 🙃.
Have a good day, dear 🤗.

Yep! That's the music industry 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 *fake applause* 🤢
https://youtu.be/n5ns90v_1_g
Here’s the YT link by Fletcher’s ‘Healing’.
I wonder how much price range for C to sell her song… hmmm
Wrong blog again, anon. This ask belongs to @fa-by but here's the video
youtube
Well, now that I got the ask, I wanted to know more about it because I read your post buddy, but not in the best way. Could you please explain me what mean all this? Thanks!

😉🤗
I sent in an ask about the Haeling song i think tumblr ate it lol. So yeah the thing is they bought attention to the song via ss. According them it's both their song. But when I saw the only person on the song who has credit was Scott. I realised why the song could have been totally Camila's he added a line that linked the other. And lts true we don't know how many songs has Camila sold and we would never know. But her team seems to want to take the ghost writer away from her aswel.

Hello k here glad u posted again and sorry to here about ur computer problems there great when they work and a total pain in the ass when they go wrong 😂 thanks for sharing the links I never heard them yet and I love healing it’s a shame her voice is distorted but at the same time I think it says a lot about her talent that we still love it. I don’t know about u or anyone else but I personally can’t stand songs with the voices are distorted in anyway and usually can’t even list to a whole song when it’s like that yet with this song I did and absolutely loved it. It’s yet another song of hers I love that’s unreleased. I really really hope they will release it or we can get it without the distort voice. It’s crazy how many songs of hers get leaked but at the same time I’m selfish bc I’m glad they do otherwise we would never hear them and there just too good not to be heard. I just wish we could have them and C could somehow make money on them
Hello, my dearest K 👋🏼😄. Yes, you're right, it's a total pain in the ass 🤣, especially since I don't know what the problem is. I've tried everything with my tech baby @romanticentropy, and she came to the conclusion that it's probably an internal hardware problem and that I need to give it to a technician 😓. Ugh, I hope it can be fixed in the week 🤞🏼.
I agree with you on songs with distorted voices. Most of the time it bothers me to listen to them, but not in this case. I don't know if it's because it's Mila, but it doesn't bother me at all. I really love the song and as I said in yesterday's post, I hope they'll leak the original version with her undistorted voice soon 🤞🏼 🙏🏼.
I also agree with you on the rest of the things you said, and don't worry; as I explained (where I talked about ghostwriters) in the post before this one which was an answer to Anon on yesterday's post, Mila makes money by selling them.
Before going, I wanted to tell you that I've read all the asks you've sent me, my dear K 😊. As you know, you'll have the answers to them in the next Q&A post as soon as my computer starts working normally again; including a certain song analysis 😏. Yep, I know it was you who sent me that ask 😎🤭. In the ask of the analysis, you acted like an Anon normally, but in another little particular ask, you basically told me that yourself by saying “it is really nice having u around and glad u choose to interact with us and absolutely love reading ur stuff specially song analysis looking forward to u doing…” (I don't wanna spoil 🤣). You remember that ask, right? The one you introduced yourself and which you asked me not to post (and I won't 😉)?
And speaking of that ask, don't worry; you didn't scare me off. You're not the only one who has thought you know what. I'm beyond flattered 🥰. Maybe it's a lot to ask, but the answer is in all my posts. From the very first one that I posted up to now. I hope you understand what I mean and that you'll find the answer. I'm sorry, but I have to be so cryptic precisely because you asked me not to post that ask, and I always respect other people's choices. You're smart and I like the way you reason based on all of your asks in general. I'm sure you'll understand if you read them all. Make the comparison. Again, I'm sorry if that's a lot to ask 😅, but it's the only indirect way I have to answer you.
I love you, K 🤗. Have a wonderful day ❤.

wait faby so The healing was C’s song for The hurting The healing The loving but she discarded it and after a few years she sold it to Fletcher? like she did with Anyone to Justin? cause her writing credits don’t show in Fletcher’s song
Yes, my dear Anon, this is exactly what I think. I think that the exact same thing that happened with Anyone, happened in this case. When Justin's version first came out, I went to check on ASCAP and BMI and wrote this post with screenshots to prove that Mila didn't have any credit and that Justin hadn't registered the song yet. After that post and after some time though, I went to check again. Justin registered the song on both ASCAP and BMI and Mila was nowhere to be found in the credits. I went to get the screenshots of course to show you:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
After finding Healing on one of those sites: (sorry but I had to delete a lot of info for privacy):
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I did the exact same procedure obviously to find out as much as I could before publishing yesterday's post. I checked on both ASCAP and BMI and as you said too, no Mila in the credits. But who is in the credits? Scott Harris:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
So basically, exactly like you said, I think Mila sold the song to FLETCHER after years by acting as a ghostwriter. For those of you who don't know what that means, I'll copy a piece of the explanation from my How the music world works post: “Ghostwriters are authors who write on commission. The musical ones, can write an entire song or even a single sentence for an artist, without of course receiving credit for doing so. That’s exactly why the name ghostwriter/s. Ghostwriters sell their songs to record labels for their artists or can be contacted specifically to write a song. When ghostwriters sell their songs, they sign a contract with a confidentiality clause and receive a payment in advance. A big payment, by the way. Some ghostwriters remain copyright owners of their song, so they not only earn on the advance received for the sale of the song, but also receive some royalties when the song is used. Other ghostwriters, on the other hand, most of them actually, also sell copyrights, and for this reason, they earn absolutely no percentage in royalties because the song they sold is no longer theirs.”
If it weren't for the leaks of songs in general, sometimes the true writers and authors could remain in the shadows of their works forever. And in this case, if it weren't thanks to the leaked songs, we never would’ve known they were by Mila in the first place. That's the beauty of ghostwriters. Who knows how many others there are that she's sold and of which we're not aware yet 🤷🏻‍♀️.
Have a good day, dear 😄, and I hope this answers the other asks I've received about it as well

Hello babies and dear Anons 👋🏼🤗. Not the ‘Q&A’ post yet, sorry 😅. I'm having computer issues and I think I'll give it to a tech to fix it this week. In the meantime, I have a little surprise to make up for the wait 😎.
---
Oh and, two things. First thing: before you ask me “how?”, remember (or for those of you who don't know) that I already talked about this in my Unreleased songs - ɟ post. Second thing: this is a test for all of you. That's all I'm gonna say about it for now. We'll see if you pass it or not.
---
There have been 4 “news” released lately. I was about to post everything myself here, but I noticed that some people out there have already done so, but, not with all 4 of them. These “news”, are 2 snippets and 2 unreleased songs. I'll start with the ones that have been posted and that you can found on YouTube.
The first one, is the snippet of Meet Your Maker by Lauren Jauregui released on Jan 18, 2022. Will this song be part of LJ1? We'll find out. For now, as I said, you can listen to it on YT. It was pointless for me to post it here if it's already out there.
The second one, is a whole song titled No Boys Allowed by Fifth Harmony. It was released on Jan 29, 2022, and it was supposed to be part of Better Together. You can listen to this one on YT as well.
The third one, as I think you all know, is the snippet of Psychofreak by Camila Cabello released on Jan 28, 2022. It was immediately removed everywhere, but luckily for you, I have it 😜. And this, is part of the surprise. For all those who haven't had time to listen to it, enjoy 🤗: https://a.tumblr.com/tumblr_r6i54lH8Bz1ykfr3qo1.mp3
And lastly, the fourth one. This is also a whole song and, unlike the others, this one hasn't been posted. I think the reason is because the voice is distorted but I don't care because I seriously love it 😍. I'm not kidding, I'm listening to it on a loop 🤩. But anyway. The song is titled Healing by Camila Cabello. It was released on Jan 8, 2022, and it was supposed to be part of The Hurting. The Healing. The Loving. (I mean, hellooo? It's a title in the title 🤭). And this, my babies, is the other part of the surprise. Enjoy 😉: https://a.tumblr.com/tumblr_r6i50nojky1ykfr3qo1.mp3
My girl romanticentropy asked me why they discarded it from the album after listening to it when I sent it to her, and I told her that the answer lies in the song itself, especially in the chorus. I hope they'll release the original version with her undistorted voice soon 🙏🏼.
And that's it, babies. I hope you pass the test and I hope I made it up to you guys. I swear you'll get the post as soon as I solve things with the computer. Oh and, get ready for what's coming next because there's always a reason behind unreleased song releases 😏. Until next time 😘.
Remember to be nice. Always. Both with others and with yourselves. Be a good example. Be patient. Be safe and take care of yourselves. Don't let our ship sink. Keep shipping them, but please respectfully 🙏🏼. Sending you virtual love and hugs 🤗🤗🤗. I love you, babies. Always with love, F ❤️.

Faby, are you ok? I Hope your healthy
Hello, my dear 👋🏼😁. Yes, I'm okay, and healthier than before but not 100% good yet. I'd say 90% 🤔🤷🏻‍♀️. This shit has been going on for nearly three months by now, but don't worry, it's nothing major (and no, it's not covid related if that's what you thought 😉).
I think you sent me this ask because I disappeared more than usual. I took some time for myself. A vacation since Christmas. I will answer all the asks in my inbox as always, my dear Anon, don't worry 😉. I'll probably start writing the post over the weekend.
Hope you're healthy and having a good day 😊.
Oh and, happy new year, my dear 🤗.
