I think the IRS demo version was better. The final versions vocals could have been better. I prefer the Brian May version of Catcher in the Rye.

Forgive my ignorance, what does the number comma number represent?

Sorry... it is the average place it got on the list (i.e if 4 people voted for better as track no.2, no5, no1, no1 respectively which you add up and you get 9, divide that by 4 and you get an average of 2,25)

for live (if they are to play half the album), they need to ditch CD and SOD and include TWAT and Prostitute (I know I'd be happier with that setlist and the numbers confirm that) I wholeheartedly agree that both CD and SOD are really boring to listen to

we can even divide this into tiers:

1st: better and twat

2nd: sorry, prostitute

3rd: til, madagascar, shackler, catcher, SOD, IRS

4th: CD and ITW

5th: Rhiad and Scraped

another observation is that Axl really wasn't lying when he said that they are holding their big guns back because the best of the songs played in 2002 is Madagascar at No6 so we can consider the top 5 from this list to be big guns, or at least bigger... this especially goes for CD and SOD (not to mention rhiad) no9, no11 and no13 respectively - so really bottom of the list

1. There Was A Time

2. Prostitute

3. This I Love

4. Better

5. Madagascar

6. Sorry (This and Maddy were the first songs I really loved from CD)

7. Chinese Democracy

8. Catcher in the Rye (would be higher if it built up as opposed to having 10 layers from the beginning)

9. I.R.S.

10. Shackler's Revenge

11. Scraped

12. If the World

13. Street of Dreams (opposite problem with Catcher, doesn't really build up to anything)

14. Riad N' The Bedouins (almost never listen to Riad)

funny how CD and SOD are on every setlist when they don't seem to be the fans' favourites (if we want to generalize these 23 votes to the whole fans population)

the only ones disliked more are the big trio: ITW, RATB and Scraped
