Chinese Democracy Tracklist

[Meanmachine22]

thanks for clarification !

Just a rumor from other sites, and I don't know how true they are (as always), but some are saying that the tracklist is correct, but the order isn't.  So maybe someone did "leak" the tracklist, but doesn't have it in their hands, or did it from memory or something.  That's why there's all the misspellings.

Wait - the tracklist changed?  I can't believe it!  I never saw that happening.

I have class from 12-2, I better see an announcement about CD when I get back!

Oh and I like this tracklist, I quit listening to the leaks about 5 days ago, so this cd will kick ass when I get it.

only the order, it's the same songs and it was only like 2-3 songs switchin' places

The sequence of songs now looks pretty good - I might have put TWAT a little later in the sequence because it is so epic that it seems better placed toward the end.   As someone mentioned, it would have been a great closer of Side 1 on an LP (or cassette), back in the old days.  With CDs and Itunes, we have sort of lost the ability to get as much of a flow going. 

Still, lots of epic tracks on here.   

By the way, I always thought Rhiad was a VERY weak song, until I heard the (apparently) final mastered version, and it sounds really great.  Same with Chinese Democracy -- the live versions are hard to sing and it is hard to capture the punch that they deliver in a studio setting.  I think the album will have a real nice balance of "rockers" and epics.

I agree. We know Axl likes to get pissed and rock out some of the time, but we all know how he loves the "epic" tracks now. I love both, so I'm very excited for this...

I know.  My point is that I posted that there was speculation this was incorrect a couple of days ago.  With the horrible spelling, it was obvious that someone jumped the gun.

Hmmm...

[TVC15]

The next 4-5 weeks shall be exciting (website updates, interviews, questions answered, a single, THE ALBUM, etc.).

 

[Wooody]

why should we trust this tracklist knowing that the last one was wrong ?

I don't remember very well, but wasn't catcher going to be on the second or third album ? and wasn't rhiad going to be a b-side...

I vaguely remember reading something about it somewhere.

[Gritty]

hmmm...shackler's in the 2 spot? Was hoping they'd bury that at the end or leave it off altogether. Oh well, looks like I'll be skipping tracks 1 and 2. Cant wait to hear the finished version of catcher in the rye. Brian May is nasty.

CD and Shackler's can make together one of the most aggresive and outstanding startings of a rock album in history and you're gonna skip them? 

when you think you've seen it all in the GNR world, something like this appears...

Check out the main page!! I guess it must be official as Jarmo NEVER posts rumors. 

[whiny]

this is cool. catcher after twat. pretty daring, but i love that! first 4 tracks... excellent order.

Credible rumour/assumption still

This is existing, am curious how all the unheard songs will be like. I love SE

Brian May posted the news in his official website.

[grog mug]

I guess the intern/person for Best Buy put the names of the songs up real quick and didn't worry about spell checking them.  I think it might change again....

But he makes it clear that is according to Best Buy. He's the first one to say the will only be official when it comes from GNR.

Well I'm happy for you that you'll enjoy them, but it's your opinion. In my opinion Shackler's is a train wreck and the worst thing Axl has ever attached his name to. Chinese doesn't bother me, just doesn't do anything for me. Music is eh, and lyrics are weak.
