#531 Re: Guns N' Roses » Song #2 (Unknown Title) » 932 weeks ago
I haven't said this in the open forum before but I will now. I was played something a couple of years ago that was supposed to be a sampling of Prostitute. This person who played it to me HAS PROVEN to be reliable in the past but that does not mean he was this time, of course. The clip I heard DID NOT sound like this song (Song #2). Of course the song could have changed, it could have been another song and mislabeled or he simply could have been lying. Due to the fact that these statements I made cannot be proved and are therefore nothing more than speculation that is all I would like to comment about this. I only offer this because it does offer some weight (at least to me) as to what dave has been told.
Just one thing I'd like to add: James is dead on right about (the fan base, myself included) not wanting to believe this is Prostitute. This was the last solid block of foundation for the mythical Chinese Democracy house that Axl built, if this IS Prostitute the foundation has now crumbled.

Sorry, I meant to reply to this and forgot. BurningHills is correct, this is not a GNR song. James has came up with a cool idea that we are working on to address all the fake GNR songs...."soon".

#535 Re: Guns N' Roses » Song #2 (Unknown Title) » 932 weeks ago
monkeychow: I don't think you are reading too much into it or being crazy at all. Everyone who is saying this could be Prostitute all have valid reasoning. Without any doubt (in my opinion) the theme of a Prostitute works well with the words in the song whether this is actually Prostitute (proper) or not.
#536 Re: Guns N' Roses » Song #2 (Unknown Title) » 932 weeks ago
I agree that it sounds like he says "what I would do," but I can also hear him make the "ch" noise.
I have to agree there does appear to be a "ch" in there. "What I would choose" works just as well. I just wish I could hear the word that may or may not be Prostitute because that is so extremely important in this case. Ironic how the one word that makes such a big difference is the one that (the majority perhaps) can't make out with total certainty.
A question to you that do believe he is saying "prostitute"...can you REALLY hear him saying this or is it just because it fits in so well that you are assimilating?
#537 Re: Guns N' Roses » Song #2 (Unknown Title) » 932 weeks ago
it sounds to me like....
ask yourself
why i would choose
to prostitute
myself
to live with fortune and shame
I broke out my best headphones to hear the song better and I think there are a couple words different, what I hear now is:
ask yourself
what I would do
to [doesn't sound like Prostitute, I'm working on it]
myself
to live with fortune and shame
**Just wanted to add that this slight difference in words does not change the context to dismiss that the word could be Prostitute. The word would still fit into the scheme. Just saying I can neither confirm nor deny we are hearing the word Prostitute but I am certain at this point that the What I Would Do part is correct instead of Why I Would Choose...for what it's worth.
#538 Re: Guns N' Roses » Song #2 (Unknown Title) » 932 weeks ago
I still haven't heard him say Prostitute. At 3:53 he could just as easily be saying "profit you", I am not hearing a clear Prostitute at all.
#539 Re: The Garden » Sympathy for the Hoarders? » 932 weeks ago
Gunslinger is a hoarder.
Is that the french word for those little appetizer thingies?? 
I'm not talking about that lame portugal "collective" bullshit either.
That was a smokescreen the size of the Grand Canyon. Laughed hysterically when every fake hoarder in the universe claimed to have Portugal connections. They fell into the trap so easily.
Thank you James, nice to hear words of reason. I got SO SICK of that bullshit.

Ozzy has had an incredible career. Noone can dispute the influence he and Black Sabbath made in the metal world of music.
When Ozzy became a solo artist he had a great chance of ruining his career but instead has did quite the opposite. I personally like Ozzy's solo work even better than the music he made with Black Sabbath. Part of the reason for his success has been his ability to team up with such great guitarists for his solo work.
Randy Rhoads is nothing short of a legend. His work on songs like Diary of a Madman/Over the Mountain/Flying High Again/Dee/Suicide Solution and Mr. Crowley made him an instant and quite legitimate legend. His tragic death was a huge loss both personally and professionally for Ozzy and it just about destroyed his career.
Ozzy tried to rebound with Jake E Lee and although there was some success the music lost its edge and Ozzy's legacy began sinking into mediocrity. The future didn't look good.
Enter Zakk Wylde. The first song I really paid attention to his work was with Ozzy on "Breaking All the Rules" from Ozzy's best-album-in-years NO REST FOR THE WICKED. Although this song wasn't a huge hit it showed flashes of greatness to come from the new axeman with the crazy name. The guitar work on that song just had a heavy, hard-hitting, screaming metal nastiness to it. What followed was in my opinion Ozzy's best music yet, largely due in part to this extremely gifted guitarist. No More Tears up to the current Black Rain need no history as they speak for themselves. Songs like Perry Mason/No More Tears/Facing Hell/Black Rain/My Jekyll Doesn't Hide/Gets Me Through/Not Going Away are just samples of what Zakk has contributed to Ozzy's solo career.
This is the first Showdown that I have went into where my vote actually changed. I went into this thing thinking "it HAS to be Randy". However as I was looking over my cds I just couldn't stop being amazed by how many awesome pieces of amazing axework Zakk has laid down over the years. He saved and re-energized Ozzy's career and quite possibly even took it to higher levels than Ozzy had ever reached previously. My vote goes to Zakk.
