Robo Axl Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 The ending ruins Sorry for me. The last twenty seconds are practically unlistenable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashysdad Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 I don't know about you guys, but I think Sorry should be the third singleIt's by far the worst song for a single..."Sorry" is really overated by alot of the fans. The song just does nothing for me. Poor lyrics and very repetitive (not in a good way). Probably the worst song on the album and GNR's most boring song."Street of Dreams" has the most potential because of all the songs on CD it sounds the most like "old Guns" so the casual fans may latch onto it. Who knows?Don't agree at all. Great lyrics, beautiful music, great melodies and a killer guitar solo. I think "Sorry" is one of the best songs on the album.AliAgreed Ali. Saulhudson88 - we all know you're biased dude, you obviously have it in for Buckethead. Why don't you go and sit in the VR forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Longpig Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 Great lyrics, beautiful music, great melodies and a killer guitar solo. I think "Sorry" is one of the best songs on the album.AliUICH!!Great lyrics?!!!?!!! ?!?!?! REALLY?! It sounds like something an 8 year old that was pissed with his brother would write in 2 minutes. "No one cares about you", "I'm sorry for you not sorry for me", "I'll kick your ass like I said that I would"... NAH! And the music is VERY out of date and something Meat Loaf would release these days.I would be embarrassed if Sorry was released, it's bad enough it's on the album. It's the only song I don't like on CD, so don't label me a "Buckethead hating mullet" or whatever people do here when people don't like a song.

sandycat Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 I dont know about this one. I think TWAT should be the "ballad" if you will. I think it sounds more like classic gnr and people will relate better to it. I like street of dreams, exept for the first few lines. The words are good, but it almost seems that axl struggles to get to those high parts, once that part is over, the song is really good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I realize those will always be traits of Axl's but I don't need to see them so celebrated as if they are noble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D-GenerationX Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 (edited) But that is the side of Axl that I hate, the side that sucks.Its like Eddie Vedder. I love Eddie Vedder. My favorite other than Axl. But I could do without his left wing kook fringe nonsense at election time. And as a result, songs he writes with that mindset are not my favorites.

I don't really find that noble. It's childish. Being totally honest, but still having perspective and self awarness is far more noble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never said what he said wasn't important, as in what he said in print. I was referring to his songs. The songs resonate for me deeply because of the honesty which with he expresses himself.And, yes, I respect his honesty in interviews. But, that doesn't mean that I would do or say many of the things he does or says. As I indicated very clearly in the portion of my post you did not bold.Ali Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a shame to see someone with so much talent shoot themselves in the foot over & over again. But whatever music he creates or performances he gives I will be there.
