First Single (What should it be + RUMOR)

[Rocket_queen125]

better better be the 1sr single 

[DazRose85]

better better be the 1sr single?

Better better what it better do what now?

[McClane]

It just can't be Better....this song is too awesome !

[DeN]

better is the best choice for a first single. all fans will love it,
and new people who don't know guns n'roses will love it too.

the intro is original for a guns n'roses song, it's modern, and it kicks ass.

[Ignatius]

If TWAT is the first single, CD is dead on arrival. You dont reintroduce yourselves to the masses with something like that. Better is clearly the best choice so far. Its a catchy little pop song, and is the perfect vehicle to help launch CD into the stratosphere.

I agree.

I like TWAT as well, but it's 6 minute song with orchestation. It could work as a third or 4th single, but GNR needs something short and catchy. Out of the three songs, Better gets my vote so far.

[Jim Bob]

IMO TWAT should be the first single. Its mind blowingingly brilliant. Its better than NR and Estranged. It would goto straight to No.1
GNR have gone to a new musical level. "lonely tear drops are calling me" - awsome stuff


#please move/delete if needed#

Its nothing compared to Estranged and its not as good as November Rain. Its an ok song, maybe a single but defo not the 1st single. I recon Better should the 1st single outta the 3 songs.


 

better then NR n estranged... Where can I buy some of that good smoke...

just because someone has an opinion that this band has a better song than your precoius fucking old band doesn't mean they are smoking anything.   your responses are so predictable.

[Jim Bob]

staying on topic.. i agree that TWAT would makea better 2nd single than 1st single.  Better however I can see as the first single.

[Minneapolisnewsman]

Three things regarding this very early, experimental TWAT leak:
a) this is pure demo--it's sounds finished, but it's not even close--this might be version12 of 50.
b) in the state we see it, it would not make the album
c) This is not what the new GNR need's people to be hearing right now (the masses), it would be counterproductive.

[The Dog]

I think the first single needs to be a WTTJ or YCBM type song.  A real in your face, kick ass, attitude blazing rocker.  The kind where any video has Axl running around...A LOT! haha. 

That being said, my vote would be for Chinese Democracy or IRS (If Axl amps it up somehow - not in current demo form)

I know a lot of people have thought BETTER would make a great single...I don't know it just doesn't "rock" for me.  Good tune, but more like a 3rd or 4th single in my opinion.

[ShotgunBlues1978]

The lyrics on TWAT are probably Axl's best ever.  Vocal melodies are awesome.  I can't wait to hear a completed and totally clean version of it.  I think it should be a single, but remember that six minute songs are rarely hits.  But you know what?  They said that November Rain and Bohemian Rhapsody were too long to be singles too

I think this would be a smart song to release because it shows that GnR is still unparalleled when it comes to making epic rock songs

[anythinggoes]

1st single Better with i.r.s and t.w.a.t as b sides and the artwork for the single is the bird in the leather suit eh what do you think. Not my idea read it on mygnr i personaly dont think so just thought it would be good to see comments

[Origen]

Do you not think it's a bit daft saying what you think should be the first single considering we havn't even heard the album yet. . . . apart from live versions and demos (which probably won't sound like they do on the album) and even then there is still half the album we havn't heard in any form.

[Dont Try Me]

twat could be a great second single if they change the chorus......it sounds all over the place. (yes, most probably cause it's a demo, I know) seems too much distortion....so I hope the chorus gets changed a bit......it's the only thing I dislike about it. Or is it just me? The lyrics are great by the way!!! The general idea is awesome!!?

And before meself forgets: this demo is probably from 2002 / 2003? were in 2006......axl could have changed it 1000 times already...... I'm sure the studio version will be mindblowing..

[ClintroN]

TWAT is the only leak i havnt heard.......can someone just tell me what its like???

As much as id love ta hear it  im not fussed, i THINK i can be patient

[badapple81]

Sorry but I don't think TWAT is quite up there for a single.

It's like Locomotive.. will achieve GN'R cult status but just isn't for the radio.

[gunnermatt2004]

i'm waiting for catcher in the rye i heard a while ago that would be the first single.
TWAT will sound great when its finished

[avesia]

twat is a too difficult song to be a single. it is too elaborated....when picking a song to be a single you have to consider the fact that it will be heard by not just gnr fans. it will be played on radio stations and tv, so it should be something "digestible"... Better is a much better choice considering this fact

[badapple81]

If it is going to be a single, I personally think the songs needs some editing. I was ready for it to be over at 4:30. I love the song and love long GN'R epics like Coma etc. but just thing song needed to end a good minute to a minute and a half earlier I think. The solo is AMAZING though. If it's a not to be a single it would make an amazing epic to finish the album with just how it is though.

[gunnermatt2004]

it may change and they may lose that extra minute ur talking about so i guess all will be revealed as soon as we get the finished product.

[Wando]

It could be a good single. The chorus should be more powerful though (It's time to bring back the orcesthra, Ax.  )
