Here Today... Gone To Hell!

Catcher in the rye without a doubt is one of the best gnr songs ever made (in my opinion). Which tracks are you guys eagerly awaiting????

Prostitute

If CITR then deffintly that but I'm positive it wont be on the album...
With that being said, any unheard song is what I'm looing forward to.

I cant stop gushing about citr and Ive had it since it errr became available, its legendry stuff! If they dont put it on the cd then they really must have some truly amazing material because that song blows my mind!!!

I'm anxious to hear Sorry.

After Sebastian talked about it, I've been dying to hear it.  :drool:

All of them...but def Prostitute

Chinese Democracy will be the greatest album ever made. My main anticipation is to experience that for the first time.

But if I had to stay on topic :hihi: I'd say This I Love.

The ones we haven't heard yet

Definitely Prostitute.

same here

Prostitute and This I Love if it will be on the album.

any song I haven't heard.....since I haven't heard them, I have no idea what they will be like, so I can't really pick a song based on it's title alone.

Out of the songs we've heard I'm definitely anticipating The Blues the most. That one is going to be an instant hit if released.

With all these rumors, most of those songs probably will not be on CD. I think that about 1/2 of them could be ones we never heard of before.

Madagascar, the blues, chinese democracy, IRS, Better must all be on the album as for the rest ?????Citr has got to be on the album!!!!!

Oh and twat of course  :P

Prostitute. i don't know why, but i think it's a killer. AFAIK maybe beause of Bucketehead worrk?!

From the ones we haven't heard yet, This I Love and Oklahoma. From the ones we've heard, Catcher In The Rye.

Prostitute

This song is supposed to be amazing....

Stinson once said several years ago that it was on par with SCOM. :drool:

never heard about the stinston thing. Sounds exciting if its true.

I love all the attention better's getting, e.g. rolling stone calling it "one of the pest songs Axl has ever written". and my most anticipated would be The General. it just sounds cool.

Why not Holden Caulfield? ?How do you know for sure CITR will not be on it? ?Was there an official statement? ?I'm not being facetious, just curious.

this i love, does anyone know if that little piano part with axl talking during the making the fuckin videos estranged is actuly the song?

the studio version of Madagascar is probably gonna be badass.

Catcher in the Rye and This I Love if they're on the album.

we've heard so much about Prostitute that i'd love to hear that too.

how long in to it? if you know what i mean, like in minutes : ok:?

Too bad Finck wrote it. :hihi:

"The General" sounds really cool to me. I envision a very soft and melodic verse and then a really hard but epic chorus. Don't know why, but it's the only song I've kind of pictured out of all the names I've seen.

Prostitute and The General have always been spoken of very highly when people who have heard the tracks have commented, almost everyone involved with the album over the years (current or ex members) have said to look out for Prostitute. This I Love would have to be up there considering Axls comments on the song all those years ago, whether we'll ever hear it though is another matter.

when axl is talking about stephanie seymours son and his relationship with him and there shooting  the part when hes hiding from the cops on that closet type thing

1) Final version of BETTER
2) Daylight....
3) Studio of Madagasgar


Definitely NOT CITR... Would not be disappointed if it wasn't on the album.. The song does nothing for me.. Don't know why..

Prostitute, been I'm desperate for anything on there.

Uh THE GENERAL, SEVEN, THYME, THIS I LOVE..all the tracks that have been mentioned through Marco Beltrami or however u say it. ?That guy IS GREAT at what he does, expect nothing less then genious out of these songs MARK MY WORDS!!

ok thx, gonna check it out,

for wich song, hmm of the we have heard i say better because even i think the leak is great the clip from the HD commercial is even better also rhiad a little even though i think it's the least good song it may have a cool studio and who knows what they have done on it since 01/01 i mean chi-dem is IMO alot better then back then but i liked it back then too,

from the ones we have only heard of, the general, this i love, if the world, sorry and prostitute, even though i think this i love and the general may not be on THIS record but maybe in future albums...

kinda agree with ya there :yes:

Madagascar is probably not going to have synthetic horns, it most likely will be real horns.

one of the best GNR songs ever made?? Catcher in the Rye fuckin blows...at least the mix we heard so far...IRS, BEtter, The blues ,Rhiad,  Madagascar, Chinese Democracy all BLOW that song away... i mean in my opinion anyway...if you like the song thats cool, Im just not into it....especially when you hear how brilliant all the other new songs are....but i will say again, the mix we have is bad..i definately see potential for the song to be great...but as of right now the other demos/live songs are light years better...in my opinion of course

i wanna hear the studio version of maddy

hey i think Catcher in the Rye is easily one of the best gnr songs ever made too!!!? those lyrics are fantastic and the guitar work by brian may is out of this world. i also love the synth in it.

by the way didn't richard fortus say in an email that Catcher will indeed be on the album? i could have sworn i read that somewhere.

For me, it's There Was a Time.  Especially with the intro. from the '06 tour, not the demo.
I had tears in my eyes on the 1st listen of the demo, but the live intro is even better.  :'(

That said, every god damn song is what I'm anxious to hear!   :peace:

aint sure but think he responded like he liked catcher too and wanted to play it live when someone asked him about it, don't really remember but somethin' like that

I think theres gunna be a bunch of songs that we havn't heard the title of yet, i mean before they where played live/leaked who had ever heard of The Blues, Madagascar, IRS, Better. the only one we'd heard of was TWAT, also no-one had heard of the title sorry.

Checkmate, I.E "The Genral" supposedly.

Catcher In The Rye

i'm eager to hear any thing on that album, especially the songs i've never heard of. I have heard of "check mate" and "sorry" but i've never heard of "this i love" or "prostitute" or "seven" or "thyme" or "rhiad" and a few others. Can any one give me a link to these song if its been leeked or give me a link that says all the songs that are "rumored" to be on the album. I'd appreciate it greatly. :yes:



and i'd like to hear T.W.A.T. played on the radio for the first time. : ok:
 :peace: CHINESE DEMOCRACY WILL RULE/CHANGE THE WORLD  :peace:

Checkmate is Prostitute because the disc that contained CITR also contained Prostitute supposedly. theres already a thread about it somewhere.

anyway back onto topic.

'General' cause it's supposedly a hevy song with lot of influences from Brain.  :beer:

Chinese Democracy. After hearing the intro at the Calgary show, I now know what everyone here is raving about. I can definitely see it opening the album! Love the energy and power it conveys.

a.

all of 'em  ;)

I just hope the actual Song "Chinese Democracy" isnt on it.

To me that is the worst of the leaks and is kind of filler.........................



Im lookin forward to every song. i cant name just one.

Out of the songs we've heard, obviously "The Blues."  I'm also looking forward to a properly mixed version of TWAT.

better in all of its mastered glory :drool:

The studio version of Chinese Democracy with the new intro and all will be sick.

Other than those I've never heard, I'm really looking forward to a studio version of the track "Chinese Democracy."  I just get the feeling that a final version of this would improve it a lot, and it could be a very strong track (should be, as the title track!).

Prostitute!

Catcher in the rye sounds so much like queen song to me. And not just because Brian May played on the song. It is arranged and totally has that feel to me. I think the final mixed version of TWAT is going to be great. With the beautiful strings in the background brought more into the mix. I cannot wait to hear all of the unreleased stuff. Think it is all going to be awesome. No doubt a fucking masterpiece.

I want to hear all of them, but Prostitute sounds like "the one."

I'm also psyched to hear The Blues in it's final studio perfection.

The General

i'm looking forward to hearing all the tracks we haven't heard yet mostly!

Im not sure u can get excited over a song based on a song title.

I think its hard to say when we dont even know what the tracklist is gonna be.

4 words: Mad a gas car

Yes, I'm an idiot. I really gotta hear this though on the album. I want this album so bad so I can shove it in my gf's face and be like LISTEN, I TOLD YOU IT WAS AMAZING, and well, IT IS.

He doesn't.  People are only positive of what they "think".

In my opinion, it would be a musical tragedy if CITR wasn't on CD.  It is easily the best song I've heard from Axl since the 1.0 days.

The General aka Checkmate, definately

Gotta agree with CITR

My fav leak by far.

Waking up one morning and turning on MTV Hits ( for you Digtal Cable People) and seeing this.


Guns n Roses
Better
Chinese Democracy
Universal Records
Director Samuel Bayer



BETTER I can't wait to hear the studio track cause that's what's gonna bring rock music back and bring GnR Back !!!

I hope CITR is not on cd. We already have a studio version basically, id rather hear a new song, something we have not heard yet.

I heard of that one called "Stormtrooper"

Would love to hear the studio version, as the lyrics are un real

of what we haven't heard, "sorry".  of what we've heard, gotta go with the blues and chinese democracy-- gots to get me some studio versions of them shits.

We only have a poor quality version of it... I'd prefer the best songs be on the CD so that the official release is a complete package of top notch material.  Since I personally think CITR is one of the best GNR songs written, I would hope it makes the cut (especially since it looks like CD or IRS will be on -- far weaker tracks)

Whatever track 1 is.

I just can't wait for the feeling when whatever the first notes are kick in, and then there it is playing in my ears, Track 1 of Chinese Democracy, the song they chose to start the album so long in the making.

The polished version of CITR is going to be awesome... Also interested in hearing This I Love, because it's been around / hyped for such a long time.

Prostitute.  We know its in the band's setlist options, we've heard about it, but we've yet to hear it.  :crying: :P

i cant wait to hear madagascar...thats just gonna be  :drool: :drool: :drool:

if 'this i love' is on it then 'this i love.' that's 13 years i've been wanting to hear that.

I'm waiting to hear This I Love. Axl said that This I Love is his favourite song      : ok:

Prostitute !

We don't even know what tracks are on the cd, so it's hard to say which one is the most anticipated. Out of what we have heard though, I'm looking forward to hearing a studio quality The Blues.

Interesting. Anyone remember when and where Stinson said this?

The Blues and Better.  It's hard to comment on any of the unreleased numbers without hearing a single note...

this thread is making the wait unbearable.  i suggest we close it before we all start badmouthing Axl for not releasing the damn thing yet.

I''m really suprised that CITR gets the love/hate response that it does..I personally love the song. It could be one of the best of the leaks along with TWAT.

 ?I wanted hear some response from the people that have heard IRS live. I don't know... I'm sure it will grow on me and maybe later on I'll love it but right now IRS does nothing for me but really nothing and that has never really happened to me with a GNR song. I think is the tempo of the song each time you think it will kick in and go overdrive it slows down again and what not. Very anti-climax.

Is it a kick ass song live? you know it could be one of those songs that you have see/hear live to totally appreciate.

Cheers

This I love

The rest of Checkmate. That clip sounds amazing  :drool:

IRS is fucking awesome live. I have heard it live twice this year and the second time I swear it was one of the new songs that brought the house down. Great track......Intro reminds me of old Led Zep.......Check out the live clip from the rockam ring show. It sounds soooooooo good....Such a killer scream and guitar solo at the end

Thank you Mr. Bill Bailey

I'll check it out

You are welcome

axl sounds so fucking AWESOME at the last to "Gonna get the IRS"

nuff said about this shit ....the album is a myth , until I have it in my hands.Until then we all have been had ,

You're cool.

I don't get how the album is a myth when Axl has played it for people...

Anyways.

THIS I LOVE

If Checkmate was really a gnr song, the rest of it wouldve leaked already.

servitude

He didn't.

misery

Abso-lutely!!! : ok:


I want to hear the whole album though because it's gonna kickass!!! :yes:

Never heard of this tune yet..... ???

No? You can find it here: http://youtube.com/watch?v=VFH9aTVjayY

It really rocks.

Heavy, with some very clear catchy lyrics.    Demo was around 7 1/2 mins long

When did I miss this leak? :o ???

Prostitute

i'm actually surprised everyone here loves catcher in the rye, i thought it was the collective opinion that this was the weakest leaked track.  i mean compared to there was a time and better, hell even IRS (which live is beyond sick) the song really isn't that strong.

i only hope the CD version is alot more powerful, because it seems to have potential with some more work.

well i mean catcher does seem to fade out, so maybe its a little longer. also, a properly mixed version would really showcase the cool synth and guitar work as well as the other cool things going on in the background? that kinda sound sludgy and distant due to the shitty quality and the fact its a demo. i personally think the song is amazing. it would be a real shame if it were left out on the album.

catcher owns

This I Love

According to Axl in 1994-95, this is the heaviest (emotionally) song he'd ever written.

1. Thyme
2. The General
3. This I Love
4. Prostitute
5. Sorry

i think the most hyped songs from the upcoming album (if that`s even possible to say for songs we didn`t hear yet) among the people on the foums are prostitute, this i love and sorry. maybe the general as well.....

The General and Thyme are going to kick major ass.

It's fucking Marco Beltrami. Anyone who knows Beltrami's work knows he and Axl Rose combined are going to be dynamite.

i wanna have a real headbanger or rocker on CD, but i am kinda worried that this will be the softest album of gn'r yet

seems like from all the songs weve heard so far this album is a major downer album, i dont think theres gonna be any partyin songs like paradise city or nightrain on c.d....i  think its gonna more of a "im a depressed manic nutcase, its been 15 years...heres my album"

sorry :yes:

call me dumb but i've never even heard the titles to these songs let-alone the songs themselves. Can any one give me a link to these songs or lyrics? would greatly appreciate it. THANKS :yes:

they are all rumored titles or talked about songs. the lyrics and the actual songs themselves are not out there.

The Blues. The rest of the album could be a collection of armpit farts. I just really want a good studio version of that blessed song.

He's probably talking out of his ass ...

but I'm sure it's pretty good.

The so far output of the new GnR is pretty good so I have good hopes for the tunes :)

thanks any way dude you saved me alot of hours serching on the internet for them :yes: i'm a little obsessed i know but c'mon its CHINESE fricken DEMOCRACY  :drool:

Marco Beltrami confirmed the first two as titles of songs he had made in collaboration with Axl, and the other three are titles Axl has spoken about in interviews over the years.

We don't know what tracks are on the album so how can we anticipate them...?

is there any place you can go to to watch these interviews? i'm guessing no but if there is let me/others know, i would highly appreciate it :)

 
I feel the same way, but i just have a feeling that axl is gunna throw in at least one fucking awsome rocker, he's got to!

Better and -needless to say- all the unheard ones.

It's hard to say 'cause besides the leaks and OMG we only know the titles of the songs. And maybe not all of them. But I'm going to be diplomatic and answer: everything I haven't heard yet. Of the leaks I would say TWAT and Better.

most anticipated track?  surely all of them?

Actually, the most anticipated will probably be the FIRST track on the damn CD.. Whatever it is, even if it is CITR.  8)

from what we've already heard: madagascar and the blues

from the rumoured titles i'm going towards this i love.

TD  ;D

any of the unheard ones especially 'checkmate' or whatever its meant to be called

it
it is a gnr song your deaf if you cant hear axl's voice in that clip

Then why didnt the rest of it leak. It sounds a hell of a lot like Axl, but I can't think of ONE explanation as to why only 16 secs or so leaked and the full version never showed up.

hmmm those 15secs do kick ass is that clip still there since Efishs' acount was disabled?

EFISH never posted it.

ohh i didn't remember if Efish did or not was just wondering 'cause he post most of them

I'm not talking out of my ass... at least I don't think I am. Can't provide a link- but a boardmember spoke to Stinson at a charity concert type thing for the Ramones in New York 5-6 years ago and asked him if anything on Chinese Democracy was on par with SCOM... and Stinson said: "Yes. 'Prostitute'". Now that original poster may have been "talking out of his ass"... but it seemed legit and I've sure as hell never forgotten it. As has been mentioned- others who've heard it or worked on it have also been glowing...

Anyway- if it's not as good as SCOM- I'm not going to hunt Stinson down or anything....  :hihi: I'm just pumped for the fucking track.

Are you Thomas Stinson?

He said Stinson was talking out of his ass, not you...

Oh... haaha... my bad. I guess everyone's a little touchy around here these days... :nervous:

The title track !...I don?t think you can hear it other than live ?

The Blues

.and here's why: Of all the new tracks *played live* The Blues is the only one that stands out and sounds any good. It sounds like a track that would not have sounded out of plave on the UYI albums. Even The Blues is not as good as November Rain  :)

just wondering if anybody could go through the trouble and type a paragraph or so about every (possible) track... i've heard the leaks, and seen this band twice so i know that stuff... but a lot of these songs you guys are referencing (i.e. prostitute, sorry, this i love, the general) i know little or nothing about. i guess i just want some reasons why you guys think they'll stand out. i mean i know the obvious reason why we want to hear them (CD would be out). but i know nothing about prostitute and the general. this i love i know about... but any new info would be great.

thanks in advance and peace out

Sorry - Reminds Bach of doom metal with Axl singing in a clean voice on top. It's mean, and he can't get it out of his head Bach says.

Prostitute - Rumoured to be the best track on CD. Highly talked about by band members. I think someone described it as fire and ice.

The General - A song with Brain influences. Said to be powerfull.

Seven - Marco Belatrami claimed it to be the best of the songs he worked on (Thyme, Seven and a couple more). Most likely involves alot of string work. Probably an epic in the veins of Estranged and NR.

If The World - Is most likely on the album, but we know nothing about it.


But why do you want to know this, after all:


You wouldn't happen to be a liar now would you?

thanks

you did your homework AND you have a search function, good for you.

and yeah i'm still with the band.

Don't shit with us fella, there's been enough dodgy rumours goin around lately.

Would someone close to the band really advertise that fact AND post that the cd's comin 19th DEC?

i think any final track from this album is highly anticipated ::)

so....your with the band right? what part do you play in the role of Guns'n'Roses? and your FOR SURE that its the 19th...right? call me gulible if you must but i prefer hopeful

i think people who are with the band probably know how to spell finck.  unless of course you're talking about that dude jimmy joe joe fink, who has a dog named slash.

Hmm so you're in the with the band but are asking questions about the supposed tracks on CD?

back in the topic :) "This i Love" is the one for me...never heard this song, but rumors says that this is an epic song

The General for some reason for me....just sounds like its gonna be good, know what i'm saying? Like its gonna be some stompy Civil War belter.

would hearing some of these songs live first appease us in the slightest? If the CA CityWalk shows for instance had some new additions would htat be a bad thing? Personally i would like to hear them on CD first rather than Live but thats just me....the fact that I wont be at those shows probably has something to do with it!

i will definitely agree with you on this one man.if and when chinese democracy comes out,i believe the music industry as we know it is going to change.the NEW gnr is something special.the guys axl has hand-picked for this band are great.something big will happen if it comes out.i know it.10 plus yrs of waiting for all us long-time fans and i don't give a fuck what some of you say the second you hear that the record is out you will be on a direct route to your local best buy with money in hand,just as i will,heart beating so fast and i'll probably have a fucking hard-on i'll be so fucking excited.its very smart what axl has done,depending on how you look at it and if the recored comes out,but touring a couple times over the last 5yrs playing the new material not only will he have the millions of us long-time fans buying it all the millions of new gnr fans will be running to their local record store as well.it will sell millions.that's a guarantee.but sticking to topic,i would have to say i am looking forward to the material that i have not heard yet.

Not to be a downer, but I don't know how anyone can say that these guys are great song writers.  Perhaps they are great musicians and performers, but I don't think that translates to great song writing. 

That said, being on topic - I suppose the songs I anticipate the most are Prostitute and This I Love.  I first heard of Prostitute in the Spin article titled "What the World Needs Now is Axl Rose".  Moby mentioned that this was a song Axl was struggling with as Axl thought it was a big hit.   This I Love was mentioned in Rolling Stone by Axl as the "heaviest" thing he ever wrote.

what fucking post are you reading?who said anything about songwriting?i will have to guess that you are probably 15yrs old and probably not even born when AFD was released because if you knew anything you would know that axl rose needs NO FUCKING HELP writing his music.yes the musicians he has chosen are EXCELLENT performers and are all DEFINITE players.i believe that your post has insulted the band and especially axl rose.and what is with this "perhaps"they are great musicians and performers?you obviously have not seen the band live.go back to elementary school.

For me it would probably be Seven.

what? Axl can't write the riffs needed for guitar can he? thats where he relies on the other guys to write them. thus the reason they need good song writing skills.

EDIT:and just because they can play an improved version of slashs solo doesnt prove their good song writers

Robin's playing lead Axl to write the best song of his career so I think that translates to great songwriting ability...

I would like to hear Something Always.  This sounds like the title of a very catchy track.

this i love

This I Love & Prostitute


/lastroots

Drawing a blank here -- who's this guy? ???

I'm 34 years old and apparently know a lot more than you apparently.  Axl is a great singer, singwriter, etc.  However, to imply that he wrote AFD by himself is just ignorant.  If he never met Saul Hudson, there would be no SCOM, ISE was written by Duff, Brownstone by Izzy, and the list goes on and on,  The old bad was very much colloborative.  My point was that being a great "technical player" done not NECESSARILY translate into being a great songwriter.  Broadly speaking, this could be the greatest album ever, however, but nit because these guys play the guitar technically well.  You seem a little stressed.
