  1. For those of you who have this, what do you reckon??? (This isn't a request for a link, by the way, I'm happy to wait a couple of more days).
  2. I mean - yeah, this is just so fucking weird, eh? I just can't understand what they were thinking. Is it : a) a sloppy cut and paste? b) Do they just think it sounds good? c) Is it an artistic statement? (Ie, a musical version of : 'right, fuck off Robin, let's bring in Slash').

  3. Does anyone know what style of song this is supposed to be? A ballad? An up-tempo rocker? I'm assuming that if there's orchestra backing, its not going to be one of the heavier GNR songs.
  4. I posted yesterday about being underwhelmed, but this version of the song is definitely a grower. Its a definite improvement on the old version. In particular, I like how they've removed the guitar part over the 'But how would I know how it feels' line. That guitar line kinda hid that chord change - and one of the main hooks of the song's melody. So its a definite improvement for me. Any thoughts? The original solo is definitely quite a bit better though, I wish they'd left it intact, or just had Slash do a version of that one. But overall, I'd give it a solid 7 out of 10. What's the consensus then? Is this song Axl reflecting on his regrets about how he acted towards Slash?
  5. In my opinion, for what its worth, its just...... okay. Just a kinda bland, forgettable mid-tempo plodding rocker. If a new band came out with this as their first single, it wouldn't excite me. I'm only listening to it because of the GNR name. I had to look up who the producer is, because they did a terrible job with the cut and paste of that guitar solo. And why even change the solo if Slash is just going to half-ass it and phone it in like that? As someone else said, if you removed it completely, it would make zero difference. Having said that, there are some nice touches, and some decent little melodic parts. I'm happy that we have it, as I love this band, and I'm grateful for anything we can get from them, but let's just say I'm not blown away. Its not going to be getting played on repeat like some of their earlier stuff, and even some of the highlights from Chinese Democracy.
  6. I actually like the dolphin sounds just after the solo (if that's what they are). Gives some consistency to the Illusions era, haha.
  7. I wonder if the start of the solo only sounds weird to us as we've all listened to the demo so many times. Maybe if we hadn't we wouldn't even notice that detail?
  8. I just don't understand the talk here about doing new covers. The band has already done enough covers to fill 2 albums. The ratio of covers to original material is already a bit embarrassing. More covers is the last thing they need.
  9. Just that the band have artistically given up. Its so fucking depressing.
