Ok, I'm a GN'R fan and a guitar player and Slash is my hero. So naturally I followed him more than Axl, with all the talk about the amazing new songs I downloaded two so far. Chinese Democracy and Madagascar.

Chinese Democracy-I like it a lot. Its by no means as timeless as say Jungle or YCBM(or whatever your favourite GN'R heavier song is).

Madagascar- On first listen I thought "What the fuck is this utter crap?" Dont flame me I'm just trying to start a healthy debate. The more I listen to it the more I can see all the different textures etc. But still this isn't worthy of waiting so many years and worshipping sum1 who otherwise has effectivly not been around or done anything recently. This song is very different from Axl's other stuff, but it just doesnt do it for me like Axl of the the original GN'R does.

I am certain Axl can produce better songs than Madagascar, I am sorry to all u Axl-ites but i just think its a terrible song. I havent yet heard silk worms or the blues but i do want to so i can judge hius current new stuff more. I dont know Madagascar just doesnt do it for me Sad

Seems to me that many who consider them more "Slash-fans" than "Axl-fans" might be less likely to appreciate a song like Madagascar.  But I suppose some of those types were like "what the fuck is this utter crap?" when November Rain and Estranged were first released.

Bottom line, hold off final judgement on any of the new songs until you've heard the studio versions.

Just my two cents.

Madagascar is one of the best songs I've ever heard.  The BEST material yet out of the new GN'R.  You probably got the 2001 Rio version where Axl is running around and you can hear it in the song.  Anyone have a link to download a soundboard version?  If so, please let me know!!!!

At first madagascar was aright; a year later it was real good and now it's amazing.
I have all the soundboard version, but i downloaded a rough copy from japan, and I heard great guitar/other details i couldn't hear before. I'll try to record the whole song and release it before axl does so you can see where I'm coming from.
I'll already did it: http://www.14yearsofsilence.com/madagascar(mix-final-128k).mp3 (should I put this mp3 in every post?  Grin)
Those great guitar/other details are the Finck's guitar and Pittman synth orchestra? 'Cause you can hear it on Tacoma and Idaho soundboard boots. Also, you can hear Buckethead better on the Pittsburgh soundboard.  ok

When I first saw the thread, I was searching for people saying "lock, ban" or something like that. I'm glad it didn't happen (yet).

Actually Madagascar is more mainstream in my opinion that's why the rockers don't like it that much. The intro is very good, I first heard it from the VMAs. I think if Axl releases it, he should put a radio-version without the Luther king speech like that medley GN'R did in the VMAs.
Have you ever noticed that Madagascar solo is different in each live?

I've found an interesting gnr site with many downloads, search there for Madagascar and other stuff.

madagascar is amazing.. i love that song.. at first i didnt like it much either.. i was just like "eh.. whatever" but more i listened to it, more stuff i heard that just made me go "wow.. that's deep"

you should check out the blues.. to me, the blues is if Estranged and November Rain had a child, it'd be the Blues..

I?m another minority ?it?s a good song for sure.
Like Illogical Phallus said, Even on boots it sounds good so studio version must be amazing. I think it?s OK to discuss the songs as live ones.

On the contrary, Oh my god, Chinese democracy, Riyadh are my cups.
Blues and Madagascar are concretely complete fine pieces that have high potentials to top the charts. 
Yet, They don?t give me a gooseflesh or stair my blood unlike the other 3.
