Use Your Illusion : The Fans Album - 1 Album Project.. Who is in?

[sahasastar]

Hey all, long time lurker, new poster here.

I have noticed a lot of people on here say that the Illusions were no-where near the
strength of Appetite.

I am convinced though that if both Illusion albums were compressed into 1 great album, and the weaker songs and filler cut, that the album would be classified a true rock masterpeice rivalling some of the greatest rock albums in history. Even well over and above Appetite.?

So my proposal is this, let's together make the 1 great Illusion album, throwing 12-13 songs into
a 75 minute CD, burning each copy from our own collections for our I-Pods, cars or whatever the fuck you
have got for peronal use?

Who is in?... It's your chance to stand up for your personal favourites. The true fans Illusion album. The one album that
would/could have topped Appetite For Destruction.

I'll list one song a day, everyone can rate it out of 10 and provide your thoughts on the song.
After all 30 songs are rated the top 12-13, maybe more make the final cut (75 mins),
then we'll go through song order!?

A couple of Journalists have made the claim that if Use Your Illusion had just been one CD, it would have been a musical masterpiece!

Okay, first song for your thoughts and ratings

BAD APPLES

Not the strongest song on the Illusions for me, but a magnificent solo. 8/10.

[Better]

Edit: Bad Apples is an average song thats catchy, but compared to the rest its kinda meh. 6/10

Bad Apples gets a 6/10 from me.

[dave-gnfnr2k]

UYI should have been

1   Dust N' Bones   04:58
2   Civil War   07:42
3   14 Years   04:21
4   Breakdown   07:04
5   Locomotive   08:42
6   Estranged   09:23
7   You Could Be Mine   05:43
8   Don't Cry (Original)   04:44
9   November Rain   08:57
10   The Garden   05:22
11   Dead Horse   04:17
12   Coma   10:14

[Tomorrows]

Bad Apples = 6.5/10 from me.


Not to be negative Nancy, but there is already a 10 page thread on this already.

But what the hell.

Id get rid of:

Right Next Door to Hell
You Aint the First
Back off Bitch
Dead Horse
Get in the Ring
Shotgun Blues
So Fine
Dont Cry (Alt. Lyrics)


Probably still have to cull a few more to make the 75 minutes.

And oh, Id leave My World in since I kind of like it and its 83 seconds. Plus its going to be a very telling song about the future of the band.

[KrazyJ23]

1.Civil War
You Could Be Mine
Live And Let Die
Don't Cry
Double Talkin Jive (the solo alone should earn it a spot)

Coma
13.November Rain

I agree!!!

[axlsalinger]

'Bad Apples' is one of my favourites and highly underrated.

8.5 / 10

[COMAMOTIVE]

Bad Apples = 6

( Vocals never sounded right to me on this tune, song is ok - Great Solo though )

[badintentions]

First off, I think that KOHD and LALD have no business on a cumulative Use Your Illiusions album or in the current live set.

My Use Your Illusions album would be the following (including the song order):

1. Right Next Door To Hell
2. You Could Be Mine
3. Perfect Crime
4. Civil War
5. Don't Damn Me
6. November Rain
7. Breakdown
8. 14 Years
9. Don't Cry
10. Double Talkin Jive
11. Estranged
12. Coma

The problem with this exercise though, and always has been, as much as people say that the illusions have filler everyone has different ideas about what songs actually constitute the "filler".
