"Better" starting to gain MAJOR steam.

[don_vercetti]

In the UK, PlanetRock (digital classic rock station) play a LOT of Cd stuff, I heard prostitute just the other day.  I never hear much new stuff from AC/DC or Metallica there, but CD is played an awful lot.  I've heard them play TWAT, Prostitute, IRS, Madagascar and CD at least, and other .

Thanks, now I know which stations to request them in California.

[GNRreunioneventually]

come to think about it Z92 out of Omaha Ne. really doesn't play Better at all anymore, usually its either CD if anything.....new that is

[neon2002]

I've only heard "Better" on the radio twice (and on the same station) since the album came out.

[King Axl]

I haven't heard "Better" on the radio in probably two months. Seems the shitty rock stations around here that suck the dicks of Nickelback have given up on Chinese Democracy already.

[GNR4L]

Sounds like there gonna probaly re release CD and have Better be the song with the video as its promotion.

[Bitch Slap Rappin]

I feel this is exactly what Axl Bond wants. He is setting up the public, radio stations, rock communities and critics. See once the tour is set and tickets start to go on sale the curiosity is going to prevail. What will happen is the critics, news reporters will attend some of these shows to do a review. Radio stations will do the same too. All Guns & Roses and Axl have to do at that point is put on an excellent well performed show and kick the hell out of the audience. That's all. If they can pull that part off (which I'm sure they will because G&R was and still is a live rock & roll band) than everything else is going to fall into place. Live performance is were it's at for G&R. : ) 

[badobsession81]

I don't understand why everything has dried up again. Where's the video? Is Better still out there as a single?

[GNR4L]

I don't understand why everything has dried up again. Where's the video? Is Better still out there as a single?

read my last post in this thread.  It's seems the most likely educated guess, half to wait and see.

[badobsession81]

Yeah I hope so. Seems the sensible thing to do now.
Would this tie in with the exclusivity contract ending with Best Buy?

[Koskenkorvasieni]

Here in finland they play Better at least two, three times a day on Radio Rock FM, the only pure Rock N' Roll radiostation in finland. It's kinda growing on me, but I wish there was a video to go with it..

[faldor]

They're playing Guns a lot LESS on Sirius/XM Octane.  I used to hear any one of a number of the new songs a couple times a day but now it's a couple times a week at best.

[SkeletorSerpent]

WGRD rock alternative in G.R. plays "Better" on a regular basis. I teach around the G.R. area, and today "Better" came on, and my class of 9th grade Honors students (22 girls) started to dance and sing to it. I was shocked.

That just goes to show you that smart people LOVE good music, aka Guns N' Roses.

I agree. I was an honor student in high school.

So to wrap it up;

Pile of teenagers dance to Better -> Smart people LOVE good music -> Smart people love GNR -> Annie is smart and amazing

Ok.

Butterfly flaps it's wings in Japan -> There are thousands of butterflies in Africa -> Ebola originates from Africa  -> I has*Ebola
FUCK!

*Please note the elementary grammar fuck up. Must mean I'm not smart. So I can't dance to This I love while being in one of those fucked up sterile quarantine booths? That's a lose -lose right there.
