'Don't you try to stop us now' is either Sorry, Scraped or This I Love. I might go with Scraped.
If it is Scraped, Bucket and Ron are really pushed out in the promotion. Shackler and CD are both heavy-duty guitar tracks and Scraped was a Bucket song to begin with.
I was thinking Scraped as well, sounds like a promising track to me. It's anyone's guess as to where that vocal harmony part is from though, I'd guess TIL but it could be any of the three really.

Enough, both of you. If you've got issues with each other PM each other. You are both entitled to your opinions and that's fine, what we won't tolerate is insults as you well know. Don't drag this thread down to play school level. Discuss the single and whether you think it'll succeed or fail and why by all means, good discussion is what this forum is founded on, lets keep it that way!

I'm surprised any radio station bothered with that bit at all to be honest. It's fine as the opening to the album, it works great, but as part of the single it was always going to be cut by the radio. Unless you're somewhere with perfect reception and no background noise the whole chinese talking bit just sounds like dead air. If the track plays in your car you won't hear anything until those drum beats. Makes sense to cut it out imo.
Yet another reason it was a bad choice for a first single...
Bright Eyes, we get it. You want us to make the song appear more popular than it really is.
There's a million songs that have intros or outros cut just because it doesn't suit radio listening. It doesn't make it a bad choice of first single, I'm just surprised anywhere played the full intro.

Wow, that was quick. I figured it would get full play for a day at least...

However, today/last few weeks, I have not felt extreme joy or a surreal sensation. Of course I am happy and excited for the release, but I expected I would be more CRAZED about it.
Is it just me, or does this seem like an extra innings game that just went on for too long and your just glad it's done. I'm happy it's done, but the ending could have been 10x more exciting in the 11th inning, not the 19th.
It doesn't help that we've heard 80% of the album, INCLUDING the "new" single.
If the new single had been one of the 3 unheard tracks people would be like "fuck, now there's only two new songs on there when I buy it"
#1426 Re: Guns N' Roses » Radio Reacts To Guns N' Roses Single » 916 weeks ago
I would imagine other artists fans do similar things, it's hardly going to create a warped perception of the new single, and not any more than any other new song.

Has anyone read or heard if there is a video to follow the radio single of Chinese Demo?
There was a Rolling Stone article about a week ago reporting a video was in the works. That's all I know. I would have thought there would be a video although I expect it to be mostly live footage.
I don't know. I think they could make one badass video for it with no live footage. I could just imagine a dark room with a bunch of flashing lights during Buckethead's solo.
And in my version of the video, Bucket is in the band.
That's partly why I said loads of live footage. Unless loads of stuff's gone behind the scenes we're yet to know about (which is possible) the band are all over the globe doing seperate projects. Is Robin still in GNR? I doubt BH would return to a video. At this moment in time I don't see all the band getting together to film a video. Hope I'm wrong though, they could easily do all that behind the scenes.

I've still not heard the fucker on radio yet, couldn't beleive my eyes when I checked the news this morning. How weird does it feel to know new GNR is being played on the radio and it's not some stupid demo of IRS that some unknown Alaskan radio station is taking a risk on playing 
GNR's back baby!
