I guess this is what I heard, supposedly happened at the Versace show. It's more of a rumor then.

"She was with Axl and Axl was talking about Silkworms and said it was her favorite song and I think she agreed and said it was amazing, or something. Axl said the final version is nothing like what we heard at RiR and that it will blow people away. He praised Buckethead's work on the song.

It also isn't called Silkworms anymore. "

actually i might remember that now, it was the EMS guys talking to axl

I like the lyrics of Silk Worms, but I'm really not into these synth-effect songs. Still I'm anxious to hear this one on record, could be interesting ! Beats My World any day  Smiley

When I first heard this song, I had to keep looking, because I thought I'd found the wrong one. But when I looked up the lyrics on google and realized it really was by GNR, I couldn't believe it. This is probably one of the worst songs I've ever heard. Why would Axl even make a song like this? I have heard all of the leaks off CD, and I like a lot of them, but if I was just the casual fan, and I heard Silkworms, I know I'd be thinking to myself "Wow, 13 years into this album, and this is what he has to show for it?"

First off, I don't agree at all, but thats fine and we all have our own opinions.


However, to call this one of the worst songs you have ever heard?!?! Are you kidding me!!! Roll Eyes
Look, artists try new things, atleast the good ones do. And sometimes they work, sometimes they don't, but lets give them some fuckin credit for trying something outside the box.


When I first heard this song I loved it, and I still do, the beginning is amazing. The lyrics, not so much. But I do like listening to the song regardless, it's just theres something about it.. something that makes me turn the volume up and appreciate the artistic value in it. The music, the feeling, it all seems to mold together and even though it's not a very long track nor a very good lyrically written track, it still has that "it" factor for me that makes me want more.

So, I love the song, and hey i'm glad that we can all share our diff. opinions and discuss  peace

People who went to the two Vegas gigs on december 2001 thought this was one of the strongest songs of the set.

I think it may have great potential. People also bitched about the intro, even if the new Chinese (the song) intro has almost the same feel...

Id love to hear one of those Vegas performance or, of course, a studio version. I'm sure it's a lot better than people think. Smiley

its a really bad rip off of Prodigy circa 1997, but it does'nt sound finished. Certainly not as bad as Oh My God-Oh My God is just a horrible song from the ground up.

I agree with cheapjules, 'Oh My God' is amazing. It's really fast and intense.
