"Better" - discuss it in this thread

[88 Days]

When i first heard the first leak of better, i wasn't so sure. When i heard the second leak, i really liked the song. Now i have the full version. Better is sounding better then IRS. The Blues still rules though?

wow i have this tune stuck in my head. listen guys, the blues, madagascar, chinese democracy, better, IRS, TWAT... imagine these songs in full-blown studio versions and then try to comprehend what an additional ten epic gnr tracks will sound like, also in studio versions. that way you might get an idea of what the hell we are all in for! axl fucking rose, baby, i never doubtet him for a second!

[Grouse]

So is there anyone else who thinks the second part was a dissapointment??

No.

Yes.

Yes.......I am a believer now.

This album is gonna blow the fuck up!

[Spirit]

First of all: Holy. Motherfrackin. God.

Second: DONT touch the metal part.

Third: If you listen to it, use headphones. Or don't listen.

I'm blastin' it at FULL volume at my stereo.. works for me! ?

  No.

Sure was.

[BLS-Pride]

Hell yeah, you're right. I just thought of the "Itsoundsweirdonmycomputerspeakers"-ppl.   

[McClane]

It's only a demo...It will propbably change a lot in the final version...They'll remove some parts like the 2:25 part...

[Neemo]

I think robin is the main riff

@ Makane not I that's for sure. The middle of that song goes very "metal" just how I wanna hear it

Well I like more "rocker" (ie. I.R.S. and Chinese Democracy) just thought the metal sounded like system of a down (which I really don't like)

Well, personally i cringe that you compare GnR to SOAD

But it's cool you are on the rock side of things, Like Axl said, "you'll like at least a few songs on there."

I don't think it's a mistake that all these "Heavy" tracks are on a demo CD I think there'll be more conventional songs like The Blues too

I'm more of the metal side of things and I'm lovin' it

I personally would call a GNR/SOAD-Tour something like a "Rebirth of Real Music"-Tour, but that's for another thread.

A little less on the attack of computer sounds and it would be my fav. new song.

[draguns]

The full version of Better is ok. I think IRS and TWAT are outstanding songs! Hopefully the studio release of this song can be improved.

Interesting point: I wonder what Zakk thinks of this song. I really do.

[The Dog]

ITs funny how it seems some people LOVE the new parts and others think they're not that good. 

Song is growing on me, I don't think I've listened to a song this many times in a row ever hahaha.  The ending could be a lot stronger....to rock that hard in the middle and come back down like... I don't know.  It should stay hard (hehe) the rest of the song, or get lighter JUST at the end, like last 5 seconds.  Some of the transitions are really cringe worthy too.

then again, I haven't written a number one hit so...what the hell do i know

[Velvet Forever]

I'm sure the 2.30riff was made by Finck ; Looks like NIN

I hope he doesn't try to please everyone, like making some awsome rockers and then add few ghetto-rap songs in the mix. I hope he has some "fine line" which he fallows on all songs, but nothing wrong with little experiment, just not any "My World"'s.

The section where A. shouts is buggin me, it reminds me of another song. If it comes to me, i'll tell you

"Oh My God"?

'to be somebody else'  -  2.57 into the track. It's hit me, it's from a Pink Floyd song. Possibly one of the tacks on The Wall.
