« on: February 16, 2007, 12:08:40 AM »
It was recently confirmed by Axl to the EMS people that Silk Worms still existed, but was going under a different name now...

Look at the lyrics of Silk Worms, they are clearly about a Prostitute!

I know what you're thinking, but it's entirely possible that it was called Prostitute, but they decided to rename it Silk Worms, after initial negative reception they decided to rework the track and changed it back to Prostitute to escape the negative stigma that this obvious future hit.

For all of you dying to hear it - you already have!


(P.S. I know this isn't the case - in the one in a billion chance I was right... woah... - this is a joke to all those people that say "I hope we get to hear Prostitute!" constantly based on nothing but the name and the comments of a composer 5 years ago... and the fact that practically everyone hates SW and it apparently is still alive)

Bullshit. Go read the description of Prostitute by Beltrami, and then tell me its Silkworms.


Prostitute is considered to be the best track by several people close to the GNR camp over the years. No way in hell is Silkworms one of the best songs we've heard, and thats not even taking into account the songs we haven't heard.

Its not Prostitute.


Interesting theory though anyways.

Not to mention that Prostitute was on the setlist for the NA tour.

Oh by the way, comparing those two tracks is futile.  Let's not go there.

no. no. no. the title prostitute was mentioned long before silkworms came up; prostitute supposed to be one of the big guns. it's not silkworms, that was just a "try out track" (hopefully).

How many more "Prostitute = xxx?" threads are we going to get? So far we've had "Prostitute = Sorry", "Prostitute = The Blues".

No-one knows. Really.

Interesting theory, but I doubt it turns out to be true.

Haha....I doubt it. Like it's already been said...the description of Prostitute does not match what would be said about Silkworms!

On a side note: A few weeks ago a mate of mine actually thought they had found Prostitute. They sent it on to me before they got a chance to listen and it didn't even have any lyrics. I told them that it wasn't Prostitute because the whole online community of GNR fans would be talking about it if it had been leaked. Another mate tried to claim he had it a few years ago but it's dissappeared from his computer....yeah right. Well the song was good anyway even if it wasn't a GNR product.

It might, but that doesn't change the fact that 'Prostitute' as a title has existed for years.

Is Locomotive and Nightrain describing trains? November Rain a weathercast? Mr. Brownstone a fella?

Everything is possible, but is it likely? Nah.

Prostitute was described as 'fire and ice'. Unless you count the tempo stop about 2/3 of the way through Silkworms as the 'ice', I doubt very much that the two tracks are the same. In addition, other than Dizzy and Pittman synthesizing, I didn't hear any orchestration, i.e. what exactly was Beltrami working on?

I am still debating the whole Oklahoma-Rhiad connection in my own head.
