Here Today... Gone To Hell!

Ok i know this probably wont happen but lets just pretend it does , as Axl said there hasnt been any videos from chinese YET what 3 tracks would you like em to make vids for ?

what about Better? it could be a great song for a first music video, I'm surprised nobody had the idea yet! :)

Wow........... you could have hit on something big there  :hihi:

Better, There Was A Time and This I Love...

I thought "Chinese Democracy" would have been an interesting setup for a video clip, particularly if it was inspired by the Kundun film.

I actually started visualising a video for it in my head everytime I listened to it. Don't know if it's worth sharing though.

Otherwise, "Better" and "Street of Dreams" would be suitable for a video because they were released for radio play.

They could make a Vide to every single Song on the Album.

But i would choose these song, in that order of releasing:

Chinese Democracy
Better
Madagascar
There Was A Time
Street of Dreams
This I Love

And maybe

Shackler's Revenge
Catcher in the Rye

I would choose Better, Chinese Democracy and Catcher in the Rye or If The World (One of the 2)  : ok:

www.facebook.com/slasherr.videos or www.vimeo.com/slasherr for a few fan-made videos from Chinese Democracy  :beer:

I would go with Better if they decided to do a video.

Street Of Dreams, Better and This I Love...

AFTER SEEING THE VIDEO MONTAGE FOR SOD LIVE , I'D GO W/ THAT..IT WAS PRETTY TOUCHING, GN'R PLAYING AS A HEARTBROKEN GIRL IS WALKING OUT ON A RELATIONSHIP...
BETTER BECAUSE IT'S SUPPOSDLY ALREADY MADE..

Better
There Was A Time
Sorry

The main reason i would like some videos is a few weeks ago i was watching either mtv2 or kerrang and all day was an hour or 2 showing certain bands careers like U2 from the beginning then all Oasis videos then all GnR vids and it struck me apart from hardcore fans there is nothing to show from this era its like Guns ended after Since i dont have you, in 20 years from now it would be cool to have something from this era to show the evolution baby

I think it's a real shame that no videos have surface officially for any song off of Chinese Democracy. I heard what Axl had to say about wanting people to hear the album without no pre concieved visual notions, and that's fine. But it's been 3 years since the release now, and I think GN'R once again have missed an opportunity to gain some promotion and record sales by releasing a music video.

I also agree with the poster who stated that it's almost as if this version of GN'R don't "exist" in a way that the earlier era of the band did. It is as if GN'R has "officially" cut off after Since I Don't Have You.

I personally think it's counter productive not to release any kind of video at all for the album, and that Better video we got a glimpse of was amazing. If you think about how many music videos were released by GN'R in 87-93, and then think about how many were released between 1999-2011, it makes me totally sad.

Especially how so many great moments, and music have been realised between that time, it's a damn shame we have no official means to celebrate them by.  :-[

I liked the Harley commercial with all the Black Sheep,even though it was not an official video! I'll never forget singing BETTER to a group of adolescent sheep on the moors of Haworth, England. For one brief moment they were totally transfixed. I wish I had a video of that.

Oneinamillion you said what i wanted to say but with far more intelligence thanks.
im all for the anti corporate anti commercial bands, in fact thats mostly what i like and i respect Axl to the hilt for doing his own thing but it just feels to me that the Chinese Democracy sessions should be massive and heard by as many people as possible
