Prostitute. I think it's the worst GN'R song ever.

Can radios edit the songs without the artist's permisson?

Good to see some IRS-loving Gunners
I think it's one of the best songs on the album. In fact, it'd be amazing if Finck's solo wasn't that horrible and they would have done something with the slow parts. The chorus' arrangements have the good old GN'R vibe and Axl's screaming with BH's solo is magnificent. This song rocks.

When I first heard the Catcher leak in 06 I thought at the time it had the potential to become a nice little summer anthem, it just had a lovely vibe to it.
For some reason the finished version doesnt have that vibe.
Mabye Scraped could become a hit single, I'm dubious all the same, cant even decide if I like it.
I cant see any others, Street Of Dreams mabye, but now it tries too hard to be huge and epic. Its suffocated the genuine emotion in the song.
An edited and shortened CITR could do well. It's a simple Yeserdays-type songs, yet it's almost 6 minutes long. Boring.
I always saw hit potential in Street of Dreams/The blues, but Axl's singing on the finished version is awful, sounds like a bad demo. It would flop.

ACDC went up against High School Music 3, MARY MARY and Hank Williams III
Metallica went up against jessica simpson, ll cool J, eric benet, GYM CLASS HEROES, MITCH HEDBERG and natalie cole
and gnr went up against Kayne, ludacris, killers, barry manilow and cold play
i woiuld say gnr had the toughest combo of all three tbh
High School Music 3 is still in the Top 10 and GN'R will most likely drop out. That's for the competition being too hard for Axl. Anyway, Metallica sold like 3 times more in 3 days(!) and AC/DC did almost four times more than GN'R. That speaks volumes.

Axlin08,
For Axl to get behind a reunion, Axl would have to be willing to demonstrate (through the act of reuniting. No words necessary) that he was wrong.And the odds of that are...?
Yep. You guessed it. Nada.
He could blame the management, record company, internet, Best Buy, Dr. Pepper etc. for the good, but in GN'R standards weak sales. He could go on talking about how proud of the album he is, but NOW wants to AFD over again to show the world what the shit is. Sad thing that the other guys won't do any reunion in the next few years and I seriously doubt tha Axl will leave his house in the next couple of years, too. He has Fernando to buy the next GTA for him. (James, where is the giant elephant turd video?)

Scraped. I hated it for the first few listens, but now I think it's in the better half of the album. Nothing special, but a fun song.

Tesla in one of the last bands with great guitar playing. I really like them, although not a fan of the singer.
#2339 Re: Guns N' Roses » Chinese Democracy Chart Positions Thread » 935 weeks ago
I don't think any reunion is in the works. Azoff can have his plans, but no. The only explanation of the current situation is that Axl's crazy. Batshit crazy if you like it better. No way in hell Slash or Izzy would team up with him again when he doesn't do anything for his 'career defining' album. What a fuckin' career it is if CD is defining it. Eh. The only people Axl can reunite with are Steven Adler and Tracii Guns.

GN'R need to aim promotion at something that's NOT a sinking ship.
An American band whose sold what? 45+ million in the U.S. alone, is going to suddenly start touring Hungary, where their strengths are?
This sounds cliche, but....
Axl... call Slash.
I'd be happy with a few shows in Hungary
