prez Posted October 13, 2011 Posted October 13, 2011 I don't mean never play it again, but it's been in the set for ten years. Switch it out for Prostitute or TWAT. Quote
iftheworld Posted October 13, 2011 Posted October 13, 2011 (edited) I don't mean never play it again, but it's been in the set for ten years. Switch it out for Prostitute or TWAT.Most of the songs they play are twenty plus year old songs. Does that mean we should just start dropping them because they're old? Fuck no. I'd rather hear Maddy then Prosty. Besides Prosty just doesn't fit in my opinion with what they are doing right now. Edited October 13, 2011 by iftheworld Quote
Yesterdays-Civil-War Posted October 13, 2011 Posted October 13, 2011 I don't mean never play it again, but it's been in the set for ten years. Switch it out for Prostitute or TWAT.I'm not so sure about Axl actually singing either of those things. They are both hard songs to sing and both very 'studio' songs, whereas Madagascar is much easier to sing and (some) live versions are even comparable to its studio counterpart. Quote

It's just too slow and mellow compared to the other songs besides TIL. Quote
tarheels180 Posted October 13, 2011 Posted October 13, 2011 i like maddy, i just think that chinese has even more to offer that we havent heard live as much. scraped and riad i would take in a second as a sometimes replacement, but i know they are hard for him live. id rather hear twat, prostitute, or catcher sometimes too. in all honesty, if the world is the only song off chinese that i dont LOVE you know? maddys good, but lets get a good mix going. i know i know, they dont play the songs for the internet, they play them for the crowd. still would be nice though Quote

It's just too slow and mellow compared to the other songs besides TIL.prostitute has its place. but i do agree with that assessment. the information we got about this song did not fit the bill. night train meets november rain, fire and ice, you will fall out of your chair when you hear the guitar solo, etc. its good, and i would be happy to see it live, but i would much rather see civil war or twat.

Kill Devil Hill Posted October 13, 2011 Posted October 13, 2011 Prostitute is one of the masterpieces off of CD. It's almost up there with TWAT and IRS, and I like it more than SoD and Better even...But as a live track, Madagascar > Prostitute. Quote
riot Posted October 13, 2011 Posted October 13, 2011 am I the only one to really miss if the world live?! I mean that song reached another level live!!! Quote

I haven't seen the board give it that much love.A lot of my post was personal opinion, by the way... Quote

suckerpunched03 Posted October 13, 2011 Posted October 13, 2011 i think most people see irs as a good filler type song. and maybe thats all it really could be. however, its the one song that to me, feels like the gnr swagger. great outro. its one of the songs i still blast on cd. well, i blast them all... but im not the average fan.

Coma16 Posted October 13, 2011 Posted October 13, 2011 (edited) ITW is killer live!!! Not sure why all love for SR though... Too many backing vocals Prostitute is a pleasant way to close out the album. Doesn't work so good live tho Edited October 13, 2011 by Coma16 Quote
Apollo Posted October 13, 2011 Posted October 13, 2011 And that is why CD is such a great album. Most albums have a consensus favorite or best song from a group of 2-3. If you polled all members of thia forum, every song would get first place votes. But who votes for I think About You or Get in the ring as the top songs on their albums?CD is an amazing album. Quote

The Leaked version of TWAT was better than the final version. But the final version was still amazing. Quote
Kill Devil Hill Posted October 13, 2011 Posted October 13, 2011 I think IRS just is awesome in every way. I can't find anything wrong with it and always end up replaying it. I think Axl's finest moment is, "It's such a crime, you know it's true." Quote
