Stro Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 As in when they were written/recorded. The vocals on the re-recorded SCOM sound just like the Madagascar vocals which leads me to believe that it was originally recorded at the same time as the first set of leaks. But that got me to thinking about the rest of them. What was the last song recorded? And when was it? Were all the songs done by 2004 when Bucket left?

seely Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 There are leaks of Better, TWAT, I.R.S. and Catcher from 1999. CD, Riad, Streed Of Dreams, Madagascar were all played in 2001 (As was silkworms), so those were all written 2000 at the latest. This I Love was mentioned in an interview with Axl from 1993.

Vincent Vega Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 I read somewhere Madagascar was written in 1998.Though it's not a Chinese D track, Oh My God was written (musically) in 1997 while Duff and Matt were still in the band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stro Posted October 26, 2010 Author Share Posted October 26, 2010 I'm trying to pin down when vocals were done. I think the finished versions of I.R.S., Catcher, and TWAT have the same vocals as the demos. The CD vocals sound like they were re-done in 2006, Madagascar sounds like the Live Era re-recorded voice, Sorry sounds like 2006ish, Prostitute is pretty much the 2001/02 voice. Scraped, Riad, and Shackler's sound like 2006 era as well to my ears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone who was involved with the band in 1995-1997, including Moby and Zakk Wylde, has commented that there were no vocals recorded. In 1999, Brian May said there were over 2 albums worth of just vocals. There was a snippet of the studio version of Madagascar put on a tour commercial for the '02 tour, and it had the same vocals as the album version. So Maddy's vocals definitely predate 2002.

And the reason for most songs have the same vocals from the early versions is that the vocals were provavly already good enough. And Chinese Democracy 06 has a different vocal then Chinese Democracy 08, imagine the even earlier versions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
