Studio versions of Blues and Maddy, or the new demos: Which would you want?

[shaun]

I WANT THE WHOLE ALBUM WITH ALL THE TRACKS ON IT!

[Eclipsed107]

Right now I'd take a studio version of Madagascar, but a week ago I'd take the new leaks.

I think we've heard enough songs now that we've heard 4, with the 3 other songs we have (not including RATB and SW) we have 7 songs that are probably going to be on the album... Chinese Democracy, The Blues, Madagascar, Catcher in the Rye, There Was A Time, Better, I.R.S..  I still want to be suprised by the album and some of the songs, so I'm competley satisfied with what we have heard already.

People keep assuming that all these tracks we have heard are going to be in the album.  I think that half of the new stuff will be in  Chinese Democracy.  Axl even said "Catcher in the Rye" would be in album 2.  I think all of us are going to be surprised  at how CD is going to sound.

I WANT THE WHOLE ALBUM WITH ALL THE TRACKS ON IT!

aaaaah, my eyes! my eyes!


on a serious note: don't we all? we'll have to wait for that

Axl even said "Catcher in the Rye" would be in album 2.? I think all of us are going to be surprised? at how CD is going to sound.?

According to Axl the album was coming out in 2001 and it'd have 18 tracks on it and a 10 track bonus cd.  I dunno about you but I looked in the cd stores in 2001 and none of them had it dispite what Axl said.

Point being Axl has said tons of things over the years, he changes his mind daily, and a lot of it never comes true.. don't believe everythign you hear, even if it's from the big man.

None!
I want to wait to hear the Blues or Maddy's final mix once I have Chinese in my hands! The Blues is a amazing song and I feel it will be the single that makes Chinese sell millions!

I would take studio versions of "The Blues" and "Madagascar". Cause that would probably mean something legitimate and official is happening or beginning to happen. I.E. Axl and/or GN'R Management has made an official announcement of the album release.

[WhosGilby?]

I wanna here Madagascar although I also really want to hjere the guitars on the demo cause they really add alot to that song and sounded good in 01-02

I am glad we got the recent leaks. They are great songs on their own that I listen to every day, and it energized the fanbase. However, I agree with most that I hope there are no more leaks of any kind. I think that if a release date was announced for reasonably soon (even if it's in June), I would have the willpower not to listen to any more leaks. Without a release date, it's a lot harder because this album may never be released.

As for Blues vs. Madagascar, it is an interesting question. Out of the two now I definitely prefer The Blues, but I can see the finished version of Madagascar as being mind-blowing.

I would have wanted Blues and Maddy.? Not only are those the best new GN'R songs (IMO), but we have heard them before, and I know many people, including myself, feel somewhat guilty about hearing new GN'R songs that are supposed to be on CD.

I'd love to hear studio versions of "The Blues" & "Madagascar" as I think that they are both Masterpieces!!!
