when you consider that Merck made a comment when IRS first leaked, something along the lines of "It's not A-list or top 10" or something like that... seems odd to me that it ends up on the album if thats the case

Maybe he was telling the truth. Maybe it's not Top 10 but it's Top 14. 16

This has been the intended album for ages. Hell Prostitute has been an instrumental intro to NR since 2002.

There's more up their sleeve.

It also goes back to "flow". Does it flow well. But from what i've seen, and know of these songs, this is gonna be alot like Use Your Illusion II. Very epic ballad-heavy.

Yes. Epic ballads work for me. They are some of my favorite old GN'R songs. Not exactly sure how it translates to having hits on the radio and whatnot in current times, but I dig the epic stuff. I know James was hoping for more rockers.

Yeah I knew that'd NEVER happen.

Axl always seemed to carry GN'R in a Queen-fashion, I knew epics would be his trademark for the rest of his career after the Illusion albums. Whether it's The Garden or I.R.S. or Breakdown or Madagascar or Estranged or TWAT, etc.

Eh, I consider Garden and IRS to be pretty rockin' songs overall. The others you mentioned though, definitely epics in my book. From this album, the rockers that we know of:

1. Better
2. IRS
3. Rhiad
4. Chinese D
5. Shackler's
6. Sorry (assumed to be a doom metal song)

Ballads:

1. Street of Dreams
2. If The World

Epics:

1. Prostitute
2. Madagascar
3. Catcher
4. TWAT
5. This I Love (assumed to be an epic ballad)

Wildcard
1. Scraped - have no idea what this will sound like.

So overall, looks like a fairly even breakdown of rockers and ballads/epics

Speaking of the flow of things, time to reorder the leaks in iTunes to see how the songs flow together. LOL.

are you scared of CD coming out or something? has it become such a part of your life, waiting for CD, that you are now dependent on it?

i digress, i am not arguing anymore WE SHOULD BE HAPPY!

Absolutely not. Let's just say that I consider Axl Rose to be a lying prick and he deserves every bit of criticism he gets for stringing along the fanbase for so long all in order to make a buck (2 tours and a shitload of merchandise).

BTW, make no mistake. I respect the hell out of Axl as a singer, writer, and artist. He's one of the best ever. But as a person? He can fuck off for all I care.

Either that, or there  arent as many quality songs in the arsenal as we've been led to believe

Ding, ding, ding. We have a winner! Why else would it have taken him so long to finish this fucker and release it? Also, it's pretty clear to me at least that Bucket is the main reason this album is ever going to see the light of day. Otherwise it would probably still be in developmental hell right now. Thanks Bucket for showing up and kicking ass for Axl for a couple of years. 5

#3727 Re: Guns N' Roses » Chinese Democracy Official Tracklist » 936 weeks ago

I'm crossing my fingers and hoping/praying that the final version of Better is more along the lines of the original 2006 with less synth. The 2007/2008 leaks feature the volume on the synth cranked way too much for my taste.

Well, we at least know the tracklist of Version B. I'd be interested to see what pops up for "A", and if "C" ever re-emerges.

And the saga continues! 16

i think we should complain about the album's diameter when is finally released, I SPECIFIED .5 INCHES AXL WTF SCREW THIS ALBUM!

Go back to MYGNR or HTGTH if you don't like people with realistic views on this clusterfuck "saga." Most of us just want it to be over with.
