Free speech?

The song Civil War appears to have continued significance to Axl Rose.  The intro quote from Civil War, "What we got here is failure to communicate" can be heard during the song "Madagascar" off the forthcoming Chinese Democracy album.  It should also be pointed out that Martin Luther King Jr.'s speech has been included in this song as well.  Follow the attached link for the lyrics and quote references.

It goes without saying that you can hear the song on Youtube...

Well let's hope Axl isn't TOO prophetic, otherwise we could be only a few months away from having Terminators running around everywhere  hihi
