#2152 Re: Guns N' Roses » Bumblefoot not happy? Speculating.... » 744 weeks ago
Sorry has good moments, great music, bad lyrics.
The CD single they played on the radio had an edited intro. It charted pretty well. It wasn't a bad single. And this is coming from soneone who thought it would be a stupid choice. And I still think TWAT should have been the lead single.
And please, Smells Like Teen Spirit was repetitive, you could barely understand the lyrics and when you did, it was like, "Say what?"
With an edited outro, Prostitute would have been a decent single.
I don't wanna seem an asshole always disagreeing w/you man, but I do disagree w/everything u say here! 
Re: Prostitute - that outro is one of the best things on the record.
Re: Sorry - great fking lyrics. & one of the few bits of humour on the album. The chorus line is awesome on so many levels, not to mention loadsa other highlights (e.g. 'you know where to put your 'just shut-up & sing')
Re: SLTS - I've seen it on this board before people crapping on its lyrics (axlin I think). Which is frankly ridiculous. What would you have said when Little Richard tore it up w/Tutti Frutti?!

Am starting to think Louie is the greatest show since Larry Sanders.
Another amazing ep this week. Again it brought tears to my eyes w/laughter.

dunno why you'd want that, mate. bucket kills finck on his own song!
#2155 Re: The Sunset Strip » Sebastian Bach Live On AXS TV » 744 weeks ago
i really wanted to go see him when he played Belfast last month but it was far too expensive - like 25/27 clams (half the price of an arena show for a club gig) + the guy's i'd go to rock shows with were at the Euro's at the time.
his voice really is sounding awesome still & that's why i wanted to go so badly.
prob won't get the chance again. oh well.

Back on the subject of BBF; If Axl didn't want to play ball, the least he could've done was had cats like Tommy and BBF go out and do those shows as representing Guns N' Roses. It'd be nice if anyone in the world outside of us and "management" knew who was in the band.
well since this is the thread for speculating......
i'm p sure BBF did do some Guitar mag interviews around the time of release. & maybe even Tommy too?? (maybe not tho)
but, i think a large reason why Axl recruited the personnel he did was because a lot of them are wary or shy of the media.
hell when finck spoke to the press it was once in a blue moon, & we know about bucket & herbie (i think that was his name, yea?).
we used to think there were gag-orders in place due to the silence! (tho there surely definitely were similar sorta contracts w/some of the people/producers)
none of the guys post-Slash have courted the media, or spoke openly to the public (bar BBF's twitter outbursts).
& of course there is also the point that people aren't really interested in guys they don't know or haven't heard of.
& even if tommy & BBF did do press they wouldn't have been able to answer the questions people wanted to know about. it's all well & good sending them out to do interviews, but what if nobody wants to talk to them? let's face it, they're not Axl or Slash or even Duff.
but Axl didn't send them out to do interviews or promo, or he didn't let them, due to spite. when the label weren't going to promote it neither was he. the BB deal absolved him of any extra burden & he expected to be treated to the full promo push videos etc. & when that wasn't happening then neither was he or the band.

end of september i think
#2158 Re: Guns N' Roses » Bumblefoot not happy? Speculating.... » 744 weeks ago
lol well i disagree
it is different i'll give you that, but it's still a typical rock song.
in fact quite a lot of CD is relatively conventional.

They deemed CD their most commercial song and that is indicting
Better is wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy overrated IMO by GNR fans. well version we got on CD anyway
bucket version still owns
CD was actually a pretty good single, imo.Better was way too out there to be a successful single. I don't know why anyone would think it fit radio. A ballad/shredder isn't something you hear on radio every day. I can't think of another song like it, tbh.
TWAT should have been their lead single with a bad ass video....
...in 2002.... and without the braids.
haha man u are bonkers about what you hear as singles!
Better is straight-up verse-chorus-verse w/a few rock-pop hi-jinx thrown in. it even starts w/the chorus a la She Loves You & most great pop singles.
CD is like Motorhead on steroids crashing into an industrial metal works. it is not radio friendly. too dense.
TWAT woulda been a killer single - if anyone had cared enough. which nobody did.
i actually have been quietly re-falling in love w/Better this past week or so. & maybe CD & GnR aswell. it good when one of these phases creeps up on you, when you just cant help listen & feed off the energy of a particular band. Dylan phases are the best, obv, but GnR one's are great too.
