axlweave Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 I listened to the short leak again and wonder if the song may actually be Oklahoma which is now Berlin. The reason I am thinking this is that Axl said he wrote the song during his law suits with Erin and Stephane and the the Oklahoma bombing was going on. The lyrics all caution made every chance was given no effort spared to save what we had. What y’all think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Azifwekare Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 It's pretty unlikely that the two songs are the same. 3 hours ago, lukepowell1988 said: Pretty sure Axl mentioned them as two different songs that time he came on the board and did a little Q and A thing didn't he? This is true. 3 hours ago, axlweave said: The reason I am thinking this is that Axl said he wrote the song during his law suits with Erin and Stephane and the the Oklahoma bombing was going on. Yeah, but a lot of songs from the CD era related back to Erin and/or Steph in some way. Oklahoma/Berlin is just one of many. And please, no one make another thread about Jackie Chan until something leaks... it just makes me sad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vloors Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 I thought it was only titled Jackie Chan as a working title and not the actual title because they were preparing it for the 1st rush hour film at that stage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edward Nygma Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 I was a little intrigued when the song first leaked and I what I heard I liked. Thing is its been numerous years since it first leaked and if the song would have featured in CD2 or whatever the proposed follow up to CD would have been called, it would have been cool. Personally feel its a long shot that we will ever hear the song in its full entity and doubt it will feature on any official release.

Azifwekare Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 Someone's got to leak the bastard sooner or later. After 17 years we finally got Silkworms, and we even got a clip (sound quality aside) of the mythical General, so we've still got a chance of hearing at least a bit more of it at some point.

What y’all think I don't think the song was officially given a name by Axl at least by 2008 when he was here on the forums talking about it, hence "working title" being Jackie Chan. Oklahoma would then be a different song I would assume Edited November 2, 2018 by WhazUp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duff mention coming from a rehearsal for it. Whether this is the song Fortus was talking about working on that had a Slash origin riff is hard to say.

donny Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 the lyrics, and the tempo, to me sound like something you would hear in an action movie. not the right type of song for a real life bomb blast killings dozens. i also think it was a song like SFTD and OMG that would only be on an OST and not a GN'R album.
