Eh. Not different than the same feature on tumblr. Most people won't use it, FB makes an easy buck. Not really as bad as it sounds at first.

Logo on the "97 shirt" looks somewhat like a mutalisk from Starcraft. Just felt like that was cool.

I'm not a fan of IRS but the final version sounds way better than this:

Disagree. This version of IRS has so much funk, texture and feeling. You can tell Axl really was trying to do something epic before giving up and going "better just make it normal rock and roll to get this new record out faster!"

Shit. This version is miles ahead of the final mix in everything but audio quality... because it's just some low quality leak. But a high quality version of this arrangement of the song would just be epic on a Pink Floyd level almost. Maybe I'm just looking into it too much, but yeah. Forgot how good this version of the song was.

That could be true, but I'm also interested in everyone's opinion on the "leak" so that's why I re-posted his stuff here.

I liked the vocal loop thing I heard. As long as that looping hip hop style is just a chorus or bridge (or something) I think it sounds very promising and creative.

If the whole song is in that kind of style though, I think it's a missed opportunity and kind of a reflection of the lack of vision Axl/GNR seem to have had with Chinese Democracy (imo.)

Like I said though, if you have a chorus that sounds hiphoppy or electronic like that with a really smashing hard rock or loud NIN style verse, the contrast created will add a lot to the feel and importance of the song. It could be very great imo. But there are alot of musical ideas and sections on the Chinese Democracy CD that could have been great as well. Doesn't mean that it ended up being that way though.

What matters is being able to put the songs together in a meaningful clever way. If they can do that, I'm on board for new music.

EDIT: Had to edit that a few times so I could be more clear.

I tweet a lot when I'm high 21

Haha nice. I actually try not to tweet when drinking anymore. I've woken up to some really mean and stupid things I've tweeted when drinking before.

I have tried to think twice before instantly posting while high, only because I would send out like 20 ridiculous tweets that seemed super funny while high... only to wake up to friends being like "wtf were you thinking?!" 16

Being high really does bring out the better tweets in me overall though 16. It IS easy to tweet something mean in a altered state of mind though...
