To this day, still my all time favorite Axl moment .... the words, the timing on the delivery of said words

Axl Rose is 62 years old. It's fucking insane reading ya'll say shit like "years later" in regards to when GnR will get around to new music .... It's like there's no self awareness that this dude is 62 years old and has had a declining vocal capability for years now ... I swear some of you don't recognize the fact that this isn't 40 year old Axl from 2002 anymore ...

My joke wasn't about this forum, I was making a joke about a "News" section on Axl's website lmao

Most useless "News" section in the history of the internet ???

Bucket & Finck (and Huge) > Modern Slash

Love So Fine. Listen to it a lot. I never watched and never will The General music video. Probably will never listen to it again either (saying that after all these years is such a crazy thing)

Yeah, and I agree it doesn't need anything else. I think his songs the way they are are just fine. But many are, and I dont mean this in a negative way, basic. And with Axl & Slash, or even just Axl, these songs could be, sonically, bigger. An example: Spazed. With Axl on vocals, I feel this song would automatically be better.

When I first started listening to Izzy's stuff, there were many moments where I thought "Man if Axl sang on this, and Slash added some sleazy riffs, this would be a GnR song"

There are more Izzy songs I'll listen to over Slash songs. Slash's two solo albums have some good stuff, but Izzy's songs are just more raw and heartfelt. I recently listened to 5 O' Clock and Aint Life Grand and for the most part it was meh. Izzy's albums are more enjoyable.

If released & promoted traditionally, Izzy's work would definitely be more known. There's a lot of good stuff in those albums. River, start to finish, is fantastic.

I don't count random single song releases.

Izzy, like Axl, has also seemingly retired from releasing new music. Axl in 2008, and Izzy in 2010. Interesting coincidence.

Right. And 2010 was the rumored (and Axl-given) date for when ChiDem 2 would release, along with the remix album. We also know ChiDem for all intents and purposes was finished and ready to go in 2006 (and 2002 really), so 2007-2009 is the most likely timeframe for when the remix album was worked on.

I'm not sure about that. But we do know the remix album was worked on around the same time ChiDem was released, so most likely those vocals are from around that time as well. Definitely not after 2010. And since Axl planned on the remix album being released along with ChiDem 2, we can strongly infer he recorded those vocals specifically for the remix.

I don't. We know he rerecorded the vocals for This I Love specifically for that remix. And there's no other vocals used in those remixes from unreleased songs. It's actually, based on what we know, and the information we have, very likely that Axl simply recorded that line specifically for the Prostitute remix.
