Duff Mckagan singing...

[Carlos_f_Rose]

Hi everyone How are you doing?
? ? What do you think about, Duff singing new original songs in the new Velvet Revolver album, for me that would be great!. One or two should be cool, I have always liked his voice, and now we have that chance, remember songs like Believe in me, or what he did later... anyway some people like  it, some others loath it, I love it....
What do you think ?
?

One song would be cool I guess.

I thought bout that ages ago, yeah i always wanted him to sing for VR, do it in a "attitude, new rose"  styled voice.

[Ignatius]

I think he should stick to bass and maybe sing backing vocals. So fine is one of my least favorite tracks off UYII because I don't particulary like his voice. I don't like Believe in me either. I saw him with this band in late 93 when he was promoting his solo record and it kinda sucked. He couldn't sing live - that had to to with the fact that he was bloated as a ballon back then and was very out of shape.

This is a great idea! Hopefully VR has already thought of it and are implementing this plan. Having Duff sing on a couple of songs cant hurt anything. Hell, I wish he had been on a few of Contraband's songs. If its just another typical rock record, VR is gonna need a gimmick like using Duff for vocals to equal Contraband's album sales. Because if it ends up being Contraband vol.2, I'm not buying it. If its Contraband 2 with a few Duff vocals, I'll consider buying it.

Agreed.

The farther away from a mic Duff is, the better.

Duff's voice is terrible?

[Carlos_f_Rose]

hey guys he aint that bad... and remember he has changed, he is in shape now...

[Top-Hatted One]

Scott will not have it. He wants full control over lyrics since he sings them. I doubt he'll let Duff have an entire song

[Grouse]

I really hope duff sings a couple of songs on the new record, I like his voice

[Eugene Klein]

That would be cool. If they come up with a fast punk tune, that should work for Duff.

[MarioGunner]

I think he should stick to bass and maybe sing backing vocals.

I like him more on this ground, writing some of the stuff but just backing vocals

I have always been partial to Duffs vocals as well.  Always enjoyed them.

[AdZ]

They've improved since GN'R as witnessed by the Loaded record.  He can actually articulate now.

[thescorpion]

Yawn... Sounds the same to me

[Evolution]

Would be good to hear something. Maybe as a b-side to a single from the new album? A Duff vocalized tune?

[marknroses]

I like Duff's singing.
I liked it with GNR. His best was singing on "Its So Easy" on Live Era 1987-1993 with Axl.
If there are any new ideas, I hope VR is considering all options. They have a lot to live up to after their first record.

I think it would be a differente vibe to the album...

[jameslofton29]

Mark, "alot to live up to"?? Dont give them any pressure! Do you really want VR to take 12 years trying to make the perfect record?

[Carlos_f_Rose]

I think that there are a lot of things that we havent seen in Contraband, such as better Scott lyrics and music, wich with a mix of the guys talents, will certainly be something excellent, and now, I personally would like to listen to Duff sing, he has got an excellent punk voice, and if he decides to use it, well It would be almost like a gnr song. well maybe Im dreaming too much.
