I always thought a lot of the lyrics to Breakdown could be about the breakdown of the relationships between Axl and the other guys in the band and his struggle to make sense of his own feelings, needs and emotions.
"I've come to know the cold
I think of it as home
When there ain't enough of me to go around
I'd rather be left alone...."
I think that lyric is fundamental in understanding Axl, when he does not feel he wants to interact with others its best just to leave him alone, some people desire their own personal space much more than others. Some people are at their happiest that way and to break out of that comfort zone can be a real unwelcome struggle.
Others people completely need to be around others and cant cope with their own company, I believe Axl and Slash are polar opposites and its no suprise their relationship has broken down completely. They would most likely have drove each other mad.

Not Breakdown, for me thats general feelings about the difficulties of life and struggling to relate to others around you. Some of his best lyrics ever are in that song. That song makes me identify with Axl Rose more than any other he has written.

Congratulations!! Get yourself a summer job and save all the money you can for Uni, then you can afford to party hard. First year is great fun!
I got kicked out of school at 15. I actually calmed right down behaviour wise when I was out of that environment and gained some common sense. I started college at 20 years old, kept at it and graduated uni at 25.

I dont want more leaks, I want to experience the next album as it should be heard.
If people are going to leak shit how about leaking a full proshot concert or that damn Better video.

They have took the audio off that This I Love video on Youtube, the one with the Robin Williams film. That was probably the most popular Chinese Democracy video on it.

Iron Maiden fans are the smelliest I've experienced. The show was great but the smell of stale sweat and farts was almost too much to bare.
#2688 Re: Guns N' Roses » The Possibility of a Guns N' Roses '09 Summer tour » 912 weeks ago
Something, not updates though. "Its best just not to say anything", remember??
Its a lot of crap, they have a website so whats the big deal in sticking a wee paragraph at least on it once a month or something. Or a live video or audio. Or the lyrics.
None of the rumours are coming from Europe or North America, I can believe they wont be toured, mabye the odd date. Perhaps the 2006 Chinese Democracy tour was just that.
Didnt Richard say they were looking at playing different places this time?

Thanks man!
Much better, much much fucking better. It sounds magical.
I would have put a subtle harp solo in there instead of that fugly guitar solo.
