GnR Chris Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 If it's a fake, it's a damn interesting one anyway. It sounds like the same style as Tonto. Also, I've now decided I like "Don't piss down my back and tell me it's raining."Did you ever think perhaps someone purposely mixed it in the style of Tonto to lend it more authenticity?

The more steps you add, the more contrived it gets.I'm by no means certain it's real, but I'm also not certain it's a fake.

Funcadelic Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 I don't get it. Why wouldn't we have been ready for a hiphop-album back in '02 when he already had the look? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The more steps you add, the more contrived it gets.I'm by no means certain it's real, but I'm also not certain it's a fake.Not really more contrived. Everyone was all about that info released of all the gnr behind-the-scenes stuff. You see "better" remix. You see Brain submitted an mp3 via email. So the stems recently got released and perhaps someone thought, "Hey, I'll make a "Better" remix. From that point, it isn't difficult to model it after a certain style. Personally, I don't see the Tonto influence. I was just throwing it out there as a highly plausible fake. Whoever is gonna do a remix they pretend is real is likely a fan of Guns to begin with, thus they would know the steps to take to make it seem more legitimate. Shit, I would, if I had any musical abilities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flayer Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Hahaha if someone was trying to pass this off to the GnR fan community I think they would have done it differently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nonlinear Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Sounds completely amateur. Those samples are just plain ridiculous, like it was made by some kid who is just learning. if this is official, Axl really needs to find a different circle.

Guest RonMexico82 Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 If this is official it is the sound of Axl's complete mental disintegration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
axlsalinger Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Not really fair, because even if this is real, Axl probably didn't have much to do with it, it would just be Brain's remix of the song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RocketQueenGNR Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 If that is legit it's awful. Man that sucked.+1... Damn, I couldn't listen the whole song... Better is a good, very good song, but it's got raped by this remix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

axlsalinger Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Everyone in the GNR camps knows that we are dying for something new, especially at the start of a new tour leg. Obviously they're not ready to play something new, maybe they decided to throw us a bone (Brain's Better remix) instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
