#5512 Re: Guns N' Roses » Chinese Democracy Chart Positions Thread » 901 weeks ago
Chinese Democracy is #85 on the Billboard 200 album chart this week. However, it has been certified as 1,000,000 units shipped per the RIAA ( the RIAA counts the best buy deal). This brings Gnr's total albums shipped in the US to 43.5 million units.:mosh:

Greatest Hits is #6 on The Top Pop Catalog chart.
Both Better and Chinese Democracy have fallen out of top 20 on the Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks chart.:(

She has good taste for a kid in this generation.
This I Love
Strange that Sorry went this entire elimination with 0-2 votes and now all of a sudden it looks to be on its way to getting eliminated.
yes, one and only daughter. No, she doesn't really grab on to any other stuff except sometimes when Sorry is on she says "I'M SORRY FOR DADDY, NOT SORRY FOR CAROLINE"! And, I don't think any of her friends have heard any of the album. Her father is a little more warped than the other dads....:haha:
I remember you saying how she really liked Paper Planes. Here's a remix of it that is pretty damn good. I usually hate remixes as most of them are fan edits, but this one was on the Paper Planes Homeland Security Remixes EP and is also now on the Slumdog Millionaire soundtrack. Its a more rock oriented version of the song. Gives it a feel of an entirely different song, and is much more uptempo.
she loves Paper Planes, Bamboo Banga, Mango Pickle, and Bird Flu. I'll put the other one on her playlist...thanks.

The only song I feel is missing a 'Slash' is This I Love. Beginning and end.
None of the rest of these songs are suited for his style of playing.
People are associating these songs issues with the old band, when in fact, it isn't at all. Izzy would make more sense than Slash, but anyways...
The problem is.... *drum roll*
NO BAND. Yep that's right, NO BAND. The biggest thing that makes these songs the way the are, 'robotic' many call them, is because there's no soul to them. No band experience at all. It just sounds like a bunch of session musicians, with a session vocalist, throwing duct tape & bubble gum on all different kinds of takes and sessions, and calling it a 'song'.
I truely believe at it's core, that's the problem. The album is not cohesive by any means. It sounds like Axl taking this DAT tape, that DAT, this CD-R, that one, a keyboard, and writing lyrics, and laying vocals, mixing it, and bam, you have a song.
And in reality, when you trace GNR's past, that was an issue during the UYI sessions vs. AFD's. It just got worse.
As long as Axl refuses to perform, write, or throw ideas back and forth with "the band" in a live setting, the songs will continue to have this issue.
KARMA.......great point. If Axl intended to be the producer, then he should have been in the studio day and night with these guys. "I like this....let's jam on that...etc". 
You can't cut and paste great rock and roll unless you plan on playing pretty much all the instruments yourself. An example of this is watching the making of Dark Side of the Moon. Waters is so intimately involved and there is a great scene with him picking apart a David Gilmour solo. Gilmour gets irritated but we know how perfect every track on that album turned out!:mosh:

lay off that whiskey and let that cocaine be.....that was a great version of Cocaine Blues. It looks like they are pretty active and Tommy is a member of the band.
