What do you hope to gain from Chinese Democracy?

[Bono]

O.k. so this is ment to be about your personal expectations for CD. Not anything to do with the impact on the music scene or the albums sold or any of that stuff, simply what you hope for and  want to gain from the album.

For me I'm hopeing for alot of songs with an atmosphere that take me somewhere. Songs with depth and feeling. For example a song like Better is a cool song but it's more catchy than anything. It doesn't ignite any feelings in me other than  the urge to stomp my foot or bang my head a bit. It's a song for the moment. A song like Madagascar or TWAT on the other hand have the the ability to take me away. For me they are songs that I can interpret more on a  personal level. They take me away to the past or future and have a more timeless sound to them. For me I want the album to contain more of these types of songs than the "Better"  songs.  Don't get me wrong I want the rockers as well but not at the expense of the timeless epic sounding tunes. I dj so I'm driving alot at night on dark empty highways and for me I love being able to reflect on things while doing that  to music that compliments that type of mood.

So I guess for the most part I hope to gain songs that are more dimensional than your typical rocker. I want the SCOM's and Estranged's and Breakdown's and Madagascar's more than I want the Jungle's, PC's, YCBM's and Better type songs. They don't necessarily have to be ballads but I suppose more often than not they are.

What do you hope to gain from Chinese Democracy?

A raging boner. 


Nah, but seriously, I'm gonna listen to it multiple times a day every single day, I know its going to be my favorite album ever, because the songs we have heard are my favorite songs ever, for the most part.

Its gonna be a great sense of accomplishment.

Well yeah but there are many different ways for an album to kick ass. In what way do you want it to rock or is any way fine? ?Hypothetically speaking if the whole album was ballads would you be fine with that as long as it rocked? Or vice versa no ballads but with all rockers that kicked. What if the album had lyrics that offer nothing more than drivel but are catchy as hell? ?Just trying to pick people's brain here as to what they hope the album will sound like.

I want to re-experience what I felt the first time I heard AFD, Lies and UYI. You know, the feeling that you're listening the greatest band in the world and that nothing can top it.

A finished version of the current "masterpiece in the works," There Was a Time. ?
The first time I heard the song it brought tears to my eyes...in a good way.
I've grown very attached to all of the leaked tunes. ?Madagascar, The Blues, Better, IRS...the list goes on and on. ?

Having the actual cd in my hands so I can read it cover to cover. ?Yeah, that will be a heavenly feeling. ? ?For the newbies here...it's been a looooong wait. ?

What do I hope to gain? ?I hope to possess, in my hands, the most anticipated album in rock n' roll history. ?

[Mattattack]

This album could be the key to hooking up with over a half billion chicks.

I want meaningful music that transcends typical boundaries and is actually a reflection of the times and that speaks to more than just when it came out...an album that will have powerful memories associated with it, and that will be as enjoyable to listen to in 10 years as it is the day it comes out.  But that's just me.

Guns n Roses always were a support for my life, kind of a soundtrack. Whenever im sad, whenever im pissed off, whenever im in love, whatever....Guns n Roses were there. I put a cd playing and its there...Axl or Izzy or whoever wrote the song knows exactly what im feeling...I feel that someone understands me, im not alone anymore.

Im talking about the lyrics but also about the music....and Axl's lyrics are my favourites without a doubt. With the new album, I expect to know a little more about my idol (Axl Rose), know what hes been through....how he lives stuff. And on the other hand i expect to identify myself with the feelings, the emotions...

Well I know it will be great and it will be that way cause Axl can pass to the songs the feelings he has...its genuine, not like most band nowadays that just wanna sell and release albuns one after the other like a factory


that my view...

[NickNasty]
