Aussiegun Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 People whinge about the tracklist, but I think if you were going to cronicle the rise and fall of GNR, then that tracklist is about right. Sure its missing Estranged, but on a single CD it would take a good portion of it. At worst Id swap LALD or KOHD for ISE or Nightrain.

moreblack Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Can't really bag on the song list, it had the songs people want. That's why it keeps returning to the charts every couple of years... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YOUCOULDBEMINE. Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 (edited) The first Greatest Hits was shit.how so? it had their Greatest Hits. It delivers what was advertised.There are at least 4 or 5 songs that just don't belong there.They should've made a Best Of instead of a Greatest Hits.EDIT: And ''shit'' was a bit over the top. But they could've picked better songs. Edited January 26, 2012 by UcudBmineCD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Bond Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 I get the whole "greatest hits" concept. But having no Nightrain or Estranged sucked. Way more significant than the spaghetti stuff or the sympathy cover.Indeed. What would have suited Guns better is a "Best Of" rather than a "Greatest Hits" because the latter implies hits only so you miss out on some great songs. The problem with the album as it is now is that there are too many covers. What is it, like five or six tracks on it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saphyra Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Good and now if only fans can actually buy CD it would be up there as well....but i heard it is nowhere to be found in the US?For example, I bought all 6 CDs through ebay. People also can do that if they can't find where to buy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Best Of is a different story altogether. That one would most likely be 2 discs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Georgy Zhukov Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 (edited) There was suppose to be a Greatest Hits Vol. Two.but they couldn't find any?Well no Geffen decided to focus their energy on Chinese Democracy. It was suppose to come out in 2006. I am sure the joint Axl/Slash/Duff lawsuit over GH did not help.Vol. II could have had It's so Easy, Nightrain, The Garden, Estranged, Hair of the Dog, maybe even Oh My God, Chinese Democracy, Better and SOD if released today.Those are it for the singles of course.Edit: Dead Horse too.Edit: Mr. Brownstone, My Michelle, Rocket Queen..
