My first impressions.
Speak To Me/Breathe is as you say great, maybe the only song you could say is truly better than the original.
On The Run has great music but this is a talky song which brings it down.
Time is a wonderful version.
Great Gig In The Sky is probably the song that is hardest to fit into this scheme. You can't really replace those vocals with anything and still have it be epic. Still a good effort.
Money is another great version. Some parts are better than the original, some are not.
Us And Them is pretty good, not fantastic.
Any Colour You Like, Brain Damage and Eclipse are all great.

I wonder if this will get any media play:

It's out now. Just gave it a listen.
I say it's a masterpiece. Not better or replacing the original but complementing it. That was young men, this is one old man. The musical landscape is truly marvelous, and the rumor that Waters was talking lyrics over the solos is not really true. On all the important bits he lets the music do the talking.

Street of Dreams is such a cheesy title. What was he thinking.

I'm going to hold out until the full thing is released. Haven't been listening to the other songs either except for once.

Recently I have started taking comfort in the fact that all the people that are disagreeable to me, will die just like everybody else.

I’m too spoiled by prime Axl live videos from 1986 to 1993. Not able to put up with the helium voice of the last 20 years. But I do think they put on a good show for the audience. A lot of bands play short gigs while charging a ton of money. Guns will give you 2.5 to 3 hours.
2002 is not quite "classic Axl" but he has a very strong voice there. I've learned to appreciate it over the years. Not so much rasp, but a lot of power.

It's not even the best song since 2017!
These two singles are not boding well for the album. I very much doubt there is something better being held back. It shows that they are missing their entire rhythm section. Wyman was bad enough and now Watts too. Creatively it seems time to just hang it up.
I'll wait for the whole thing though.
