 Nicole responded by saying,

>
> so far all the songs for the new record are all entirely new songs,but the 1 that im always tempted to 'redo’ is only angels have wings. the demo of it was way less watered down in terms of lyrics and when i went back and listened to it i regretted chickening out /taking out some of the lyrics 4 the album version
