Man even when I first downloaded Better I thought it was fake because of the intro  But as soon as the vocals kicked in I knew it wasn't. Most of my friends don't actually even like GN'R but they dig this song. |

I play it at work in the evening as a few of my team I manage are casual "Greatest Hits" listeners and a few are familiar with the albums and Tokyo DVDS. As a result I had to burn the song onto CDs for everyone, they loved it! This song really is the shit.

Im not so sure
I reckon ditch the mid section BH solo and Axls screaming "I never wanted you to.. " part. You ?might have a rock single on your hands then, otherwise its too complex

The screaming part is essential! Perhaps edit the musical parts around that though if anything.

Perhaps essential to the album version, but for a single I think not. This is the weakest part of an overall solid vocal performance I feel. |

I feel if Better is released as a single, there'll be a radio edit for poppier stations with the screaming part edited out, and then normal rock radio would play the part with the screaming in (album version.)

that would be exactly the way to go about it. I still think that Chinese Democracy would make the best first single from what we've heard. I wonder if a decision has been made? |

Why delete the screaming part? I hate when bands compromise for Radio. IMO Led Zepplin had it right, don't bother ith singles, concentrate on albums.

If they release that tune then they should keep it intact. It is a bit complex for radio but fuck it. It is a cool tune.

well assuming that the single is to be used in marketing the album to make it successful, these things need to be considered |
