seconds that impress You most in each song on CD

[Jada]

The end in Prostitute.

"Just shut up and sing" in Sorry.

"When no-one else was there" in CITR.

[wadey]

i love the pause in shacklers just before the awesome shred...........'the calm before the storm' in a sense....it kinda fits in there perfectly


theres loads more fav bits and the list could go on and on

[italysfinest1985]

"When no-one else was there" in CITR.

Agreed.

[Perfect Criminal]

Last verse of IRS when Axl vents!

1000000% agree!!

This is the best thing on the album IMO.  Where he starts with "I bet you think I'm doing this all for my health"   That has always been the best part of CD for me from the seond I heard it on the first shitty quality leak.  The final version is even better with that drum intro.  This is pure GNR to me and is the perfect example of why making an album is all about choices and how Axl makes good choice most of the time.

That guitar in the background at the end is what made this song so awesome for me.  I don't know who's playing it, maybe Bumble?  But to me it sounds like a paranoid elephant!  It gets higher and higher, like a dramatic build-up.  Very cool.

too me, the most raw and emotional moment on CD is in There Was A Time

When Axl sings

I Would Do Anything for you/There Was A Time staring around 3:51 and going all the way until the solo comes in(well the whole solo)

It is very emotional and powerful..sounds more heartfelt than anything on the album too me

[ppbebe]

in prostitute
when axl says 'oh yeah' in a somewhat comradely tone.

Agree. It's the best part in the whole cd in my poor opinion...

[Scabbie]

The defining monents of Chinese Democracy?

The bucket shred / Axl scream at the end of IRS really gets me going. Of all the leaks, I feel this was the 'most improved' on final version of the album. Can't exactly tell why either

The heavy bit in Better...will never forget the goosebumps when I first heard this. Hope they really make a thing out of this on the video

The end of Sorry

The way Axl holds the notes in Prostitute

The drums in the outro of Catcher (admittedly I preferred the Josh Freese drums, but new ones still pretty good)

Rythym guitars in Schackler towards the end


One thing I love about CD is how you can have the album on in the background and then at certain points it just screams your attention and brings you right back in...

[Scabbie]

p.s. sorry couldn't be arsed to get the exact timings!

[savedsol]

Around 2:00 - 2:10 in "This I Love" with the overdubbed harmony of "In my heaaaaaart". Goose bumps everytime. Of course you could just put down the whole song for me as well.

[Voodoochild]

Well, I love Scraped 3rd chorus. It has a power chord progression (unlike the first two), but also with the awesome heavy guitar riff over it at the end of each line. Amazing.

- CITR, before the first nanannaaa, way the drums kick in before. Damn tight. Also the last verse on this, which start "on an ordinary day..." Great lyrics!
- TIL, The harp backround when second verse starts
- Bucket's final solo in TWAT
- Drums on Better
- Whistling in Sorry
- Outro in Prostitute.
