JAxlMorrison Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 I know mostly all of us hated the original Greatest Hits. Most bands have more than one Greatest Hits type album, the Doors and the Rolling Stones for example....so what if they released a new hit album? What would you title it, and what would you include?THE LEGACY OF GUNS N ROSES1. Welcome To The Jungle 2. Nightrain 3. Mr. Brownstone 4. Paradise City 5. Sweet Child Of Mine 6. Rocket Queen 7. Used To Love Her 8. Patience 9. Live And Let Die 10. Don't Cry 11. November Rain 12. Civil War 13. Knockin On Heaven's Door (Live Era) 14. Estranged 15. You Could Be Mine 16. Hair Of The Dog 17. Chinese Democracy 18. Better 19. Street Of Dreams 20. There Was A Time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kill Devil Hill Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 I just hate greatest hits albums in general. Doesn't feel like a real album because it's a compilation. There's no journey or anything. But if it's a greatest hits album, then it really should just have the highest charting Guns N' Roses songs on radio, no? Since it's "greatest hits" and not "best songs according to hardcore Guns N' Roses fans." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I know. But I have seen all types, and they apparently all have their own definitions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For instance, Estranged would make a Best Of, but not a GH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flayer Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 (edited) No particular order here. Hard choice to make. Some of these, like Coma and Locomotive and the Chinese Democracy ones, might not have been "greatest hits" but were certainly among the "greatest songs" and deserve a spot in the tracklisting. And I don't really believe in the whole "we need a token song from every album" thing, there's definitely no reason why a few of the best songs should get left off to make room for something from the Spaghetti Incident and the Live Era and whatnot.1. Welcome to the Jungle2. Sweet Child O' Mine3. Paradise City4. Rocket Queen5. Nightrain6. It's So Easy7. Mr. Brownstone8. Patience9. Estranged10. November Rain11. Coma12. Locomotive13. Civil War14. Better15. There Was A Time16. This I LoveAnd then if we use the B-side CD idea we can sneak in some extras that we really don't want to cut1. My Michelle2. Out Ta Get Me3. Think About You4. Used to Love Her5. Knockin' On Heaven's Door6. You Could Be Mine7. Don't Cry8. Live and Let Die9. Breakdown10. Oh My God11. Chinese Democracy12. Shackler's Revenge13. Street of Dreams14. Sorry15. Madagascar16. Prostitute Edited March 1, 2012 by Flayer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweersa Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 A greatest hits wouldn't be necessary until one or more new records is released.Why would anyone put the Chinese Democracy song on it? One of the more weaker songs on that album IMO, and was a poor choice for the first single. Better would definitely make it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so you'd understand why...that's what really got that song over for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apollo Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 I'd rather have "The Unreleased Tracks of Guns N' Roses"Great idea. I know the original post is a hypothetical one ...but I wouldn't spend $18 on another greatest hits type album. I already have ALL the songs on CDs, so is rather burn my own disc than pay for another one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
