Here Today... Gone To Hell!

I know the talk amongst everyone is that better pretty much is a single.

But wouldnt chinese democracy make a good single?? its a short hard hitting fast paced Rocker. as soon as you hear axls scream you just know "axl is back"

although, the Djs on my station seem to really love better, so who knows..

Release two singles at once:

The Blues
A rocker (not CD)

No. It needs to be a dark rocker that we have not heard. Better would be a good third single. Unheard rocker first, maybe the Blues second (assuming there is not a better ballad that we haven't heard), and then Better. The single does not need to be a leaked song.

If you consider TWAT more of a ballad type song I think it's way better than the Blues. I Agree it should be a rocker we havn't heard first, but then TWAT, and then Better.

chinese democracy? that old song?

maybe if it was 2001...

I can't wait for CD's following album! I'm already a bit tired of half of CD..

 :nervous:

I started a post like this 2 weeks ago and it was deleted. Apparently you cant discuss the new songs here.

But to answer the question...yes it should def be the first single and it should have been dropped before they started the Chinese Democracy World Tour.

twat, madagascar, and catcher in the rye are all better songs than the blues.....but i think chinese democracy would make a good first single as well

I don't know, never heard the studio version.

Better rocks. It should be second, shortly after the first single. Or maybe third after Madagascar...The first single should be dirty rock that we don't know.

Dead Horse...

i think yeah, but only if axl re records vocals, or unless the vocals are not "final"

The vocals are killer! What dont you like about them?

I like TWAT better than the Blues too but I am just talking radio friendly.....The Blues is a potential cross over hit....modern rock, classic rock, and adult..... :-\

It's been my experience that only GNR fans like The Blues.  Most of my friends who aren't that big into GNR are not fans of the Blues at all.  To me, it sounds like something you'd hear if GNR ever made a broadway musical. 

Better would have made a great choice had it not been leaked. 

Chinese Democracy has a great intro, but it's pretty flat for the first half of the song, IMO.

You need something to really wow people; something that makes people sort of forget that this album is long overdue.

I think CD would  make  a great single. People  have heard it live, it  has leaked to  thousands, so it already has a following. Plus, it just kicks ass.

CD is a bad ass song :headbanger: but not a good first single i'd say more of a 3rd single however i think that they should pick something else besides Better to release since its kinda been released what like 4 times within a year? i don't know but i think it should be something that has a good tune and a hard riffs but something that also has the sound of today so to entise the MTV lovin mother fuckers of todays society. If they do that i think that would be best so they'd reach a broader fan base.

And like i said before i hope that happens cause then i can ware a T-shirt that says "I liked G'n'R b4 it was cool : ok:"


:peace:

I thought they released that in 1991? :P

they never release it as a demo as far as i know, only made a video for it? i know it sounds weird but that's what i read somewhere

I think the studio version of CD kicks ass, but it's pretty heavy for mainstream radio to play it. I think something like Better, which is a bit more 'poppy' would do better.

TWAT.

Good sing along chorus "i wooould doo anything for yoou" killer solo and you can whistle along to a lot of it.  Very memorable, very good, has a good balance of toughness and vulnerability.  Might be a bit long though. 

Yea I think CD would make a great first single.

What he said.

If were talkin whistling here than I think Better has TWAT beat. I could whistle the part Axl sings high all day.

its an awesome great....great single...i dont know why they dont play it every night....
