TWAT Discussion - your opinions

[Communist China]

Just sounds like a more complete song than IRS and Better do, like it took more thought and time to compose. So far, so good on these demos that have been leaked. I think Chinese Democracy is/has definitely been moving in the right direction if the songs are all like these.

[Axl4Prez2004]

dude, why does a song have to be about only one person? true the title is about women as are alot of the lyrics, but I think it's more about things and people in his life a long time ago - not necessarily one person...

Dude, seriously, it's called there was "A" time, not There were many times. ?"I would have done aaaaaaaanything for yoooooooooooooooooooooou ." ?Fucking beautifully painful.
If this song made the Davinci Code, I might have to wear one of those corporal mortification bands around my leg to the goddamn movie!!!!!!!!! ?

[Jim]

Yeah, TWAT is good and it's, like...Better than IRS, and better than Better...

Okay, I admit, I don't really have anything to say. But I wanted a reason to post because this:

Dude, seriously, it's called there was "A" time, not There were many times.

is fucking hillarious.

[Butch Français]

No - it's about a bunch of different things that happend to him around that time I think -

Moving to LA, getting a shity place, meeting crazy women, meeting slash, meeting more crazy women.

From what I read about slash I think he actually came from a decent family and was in school and all that before he started the music thing...

well that's just not true. didn't Slash and Adler drop out of high school together?
and Slash is not from California, he's from Stoke on Trent, England

[MR W,AXL ROSE]

how come http://www.gnrfrance.net/ still has links to all the new songs

[Howard2k]

I LOVE this song.   Very subtle beginning but it just keeps building to a stunning crescendo in the last half of the song.  Unbelievable.

One thing for sure is Zeppelin wouldn't be able to make this.

Thats a bold statement. Nothing we've heard in these leaks even comes close to Zeppelin epics like No Quarter, Ten Years Gone, Kashmir, Dancing Days, Tangerine,etc. So what would make you believe the statement you just posted?

[ElNonoPololo]

One thing for sure is Zeppelin wouldn't be able to make this.

Damn right!

Oh wait a minute...*painful flashback of puff daddy?s version of Kashmir*

[BluesGNR]

Great tune with awesome potential..right now i think that the potential is a bit unrealized, but by the time it is unveiled on the album, it will be a masterpiece.

[WVGnR61]

im pretty drunk, and really wish I had the song to listen to... hahaha, i even forgot my regular log in name, so i had to make a new one

[Krispy Kreme]

Too long, nothing special as far as I am concerned.

[BLS-Pride]

My friend loves TWAT. He said its got a soundtrack feel. Interesting.

[McDuff]

man T.W.A.T. is awesome,I can't stop listening to it,the first listen was a little weird,I don't know why,but it's a cool song.

[You Gonna Eat That?]

Its pretty good I guess, but I was expecting much better. Itll grow on me more with time though, and Its only a demo.

[axls#2]

The length doesn't really bother me.  In fact, I kinda think it gets going more at the end and that is when I really get into it. 

Maybe the fact that it is a demo and it isn't mixed probably plays a part, but the beginning just seems mediocre to me.  The ending sort of has a chaotic November Rain vibe to it that I really like.

Just have a question what the hell would b perfection in a song to you, what do you need?

Im confused by some posters who like one part or another, tell me what is perfect.

Ive been a fan since 1987, saw the band in all incarnations 14 times, and as much as I love every tune, well no, there are a few i dont bother with.

But my  point is  for every tune I love and my all time fave is NIGHTTRAIN BTW, I can bitch about subtle thing s I dont care for , but god damn, its fucking music,!!!!!!!!


Alot of people here are NOW the ones being perfectionist.

Send me some of your music , better yet post it so e can all have the opppurtunity to lissten and remark.

But inside Ive always known it would always be like this, please some but not everyone.


 

[gnr1967]

Wow...this song grows on you. ?The first time I listened to it, I wasn't too impressed. ?The first few seconds reminded me of a Moby song - (not that there is anything wrong with Moby). ?It just didn't sound right for some reason. ?Once I got through it the first time, I kept listening to it - it really catches you after awhile. ?The guitar solos are very fitting. ?This song definitely makes me feel more optimistic about CD! ?

Very true.  The Last 3 minutes is amazing

I thought Axl IS the perfectionist, that's why it's been taking so long. But if you give me 13 millions, 10+ years and the right over the GN'R name, I'm sure I'd present a musically better record.     Nothing's really wrong with this song, but I expect someone with Axl's talent to drop an album in every 3 years with each songs better than TWAT. 

[Megaguns]

the shorter version sounds like a radio edit to me.
