ChineseDemocracy2004 Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 If you had to pick 7 songs for the first side of CD what would you choose to have flow and maximum impact.I'd go something like this,1. Chinese Democracy2. If The World3. There Was a Time4. Scraped5. Sorry6. Madagascar7. This I LoveI never get over epic'd with this track list.Having thought about it I would have the following;Chinese, Shackler's, Better, Catcher In The Rye, There Was A Time, This I Love, Prostitute.

Fin Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 How would rearranging songs that are already in there make it perfect?Improved flow, pace, moods, etc. Of course, people may have different opinions about what is perfect and not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Underhardy Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 How are there so many Sorrys? It's my least favorite from the album by a long shot 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fin Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 How are there so many Sorrys? It's my least favorite from the album by a long shotIt's different than the other songs on CD. Changes the pace in a good way imo. But I can understand how one could find it a bit slow and boring. Some people have complained they think it sounds a bit too autotuned, which I can somewhat agree with. Maybe that's something they've fixed for the remastered issue.

DR DOOM Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Haha, if the uninitiated bought the album and it started with TIL it would just get ejected and frisbeed ( a lot of people did that with the actual track listing anyway)My World is more credible than that pap.That's not what THE OVERWHELMING majority of people waited all that time to hear from "Guns N Roses"- get the fuck out of here you lunatics.It's some shit versions of some good to great songs ( with a couple of stinkers in there) and no matter how you slice it the Chinese Democracy album that got released just isn't very good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
