I voted tactically on the last round with IRS. I won’t bring it over my heart to vote against either SOG or Oklahoma though. Hard School has to go.

I hope they did finish/make something out of Dummy. I really like it. I went with Bastard. After that one it gets tougher. Probably either Dummy or Hard School...

I don’t wanna unfairly judge Billionaire considering it became The General... So obviously they worked on it and made something completely different out of it. The way it sounds here is not very convincing though I agree.

They're lying then as it was worked on during the UYI era.
Maybe it was incomplete and nameless that they couldn’t place it?

Disagree on Atlas. That song is underrated and probably always will be. It shouldn't have been hyped....that's for sure....it's one of those songs that could go either way:
A potential hit single in the vein of Yesterdays or a killer deep cut.
...or a B-Side ;-)

I really like D Tune, but love Elvis and Circus.
Ditto.

No demo of This I Love was ever leaked.

By original, I mean versions we're never going to here.
I seem to remember reading/hearing somewhere about fifteen-plus years ago that writing and recording "Prostitute" was part of the final straw for Duff, that he felt it was a thinly-veiled attack on Slash (personally, I don't see it much). Granted, that same person said the song had been renamed "Substitute," or possibly renamed from that, not sure. So it could have been completely pulled from someone's ass: separating truth from fiction across 20 years of silence and secrecy is easier said than done.
Is there any source for this?
I doubt it. The only new GN’R song I ever heard Duff and Matt commenting on before more stuff got out was OMG, stating how they couldn’t see the potential or couldn’t agree with the direction of it. Duff and also Slash have repeatedly stated that there were no proper left over material from before their departure apart from the Duff/Izzy session. Haven’t they at one point even said not knowing anything about TIL?
So I doubt they have worked on Prostitute with Duff.

I also went with Curly. But it has potential!

I guess it’ll get tougher and more interesting next round
#100 Re: Guns N' Roses » The Media » 324 weeks ago
Outside of fans of the band, the prevailing thought would seem to be "Wow, rejected stuff from a terrible album? No thanks."
People in general, not just the media, are going to let their prejudices cause them to miss out. My wife isn't a GNR fan and she liked most of them when I played them for her.
Same here. My wife who isn’t that into GN’R either, asked me in disbelief why they wouln’t put out the best songs (referring to Perhaps and State Of Grace)...
