Broskirose Posted June 24, 2014 Posted June 24, 2014 Love Scraped. Was psyched to hear it live in Worcester, MA in 2012. Only stop on that tour where it was performed. Yeah, and it hasn't been played since. I was there as well. Surprised the shit out of me! 2
D-GenerationX Posted June 25, 2014 Posted June 25, 2014 Mixed bag, this one. Vocal intro is just so unneeded and goofy. Like the lyrics, even like much of the music. But of all the songs that sound like it was made from cut up parts, this one is the worst offender. 1
Nosaj Thing Posted June 25, 2014 Posted June 25, 2014 "this one is the worst offender" Nice way to sum it up.
GivenToFly Posted June 25, 2014 Posted June 25, 2014 It's truly awful. There are only four GNR songs I dislike (Scraped, Silkworms, I Don't Care About You, Loot At Your Game Girl) but the other three have at least some redeeming qualities. Scraped has none.
GN'R Lies Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 I like Scraped but understand the general opinion of it. For me it's inspirational and a message to FIGHT for what you believe in. It's not a story or an example of its use. It's the monster than keeps the belief burning.
Axl4Prez2004 Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 I've got 3 kids, one of whom was born after CD came out.I had Scraped cued up to be my youngest son's first song. Played it 1st on the way home from the hospital. I find the lyrics to be incredibly positive and motivating.btw, 1st songs of my older kids were SCOM and PC respectively.
BangoSkank Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 One of my least favorite GNR songs (the beginning drives me nuts and the main riff is a little generic), but really dig the live version. The band seems to have some extra energy on songs they helped write/create.
Rovim Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 (edited) Please understand: Scraped is shit. It's insulting. It's sub par. To think Atlas Shrugged wasn't released because there wasn't enough space on the disk for one more song, yet Scraped was released. Edited June 26, 2014 by Rovim 2

To think Atlas Shrugged wasn't released because there wasn't enough space on the disk for one more song, yet Scraped was released. Yep, one of the worst Axl moments. Terrible song. Terrible lyrics. 1

I...just...refuse. To listen to it. 1
14 Years Of Silence Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 I like the song and the lyrics. I think everyone can relate, some days you feel like you can do anything and other days you feel like nothing goes right. For Axl I think this sense of highs and lows is even stronger as we've seen by his actions. 1

EvH Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 'CAUSE I JUST WON'T LET YOOOOOOUUUUUU (say that this song is good)
RandallFlagg Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 Isn't the word UNconquerable? With disinfatuation and homefuck and STAHP Axl is an innovator of strange words.Why the hell's it called Scraped anyway?
Guest Gunns Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 Isn't the word UNconquerable? With disinfatuation and homefuck and STAHP Axl is an innovator of strange words.Why the hell's it called Scraped anyway?Because Axl tried scraping the blip out of the song but couldn't . The blip is unconquerable
RandallFlagg Posted June 27, 2014 Posted June 27, 2014 Is that when he says my life's a catastrophe or something? I do remember a blip in the song where it warps kinda a bit but thought my cd got scratched.

RandallFlagg Posted June 27, 2014 Posted June 27, 2014 I might scrape half the song off until it gets to the better part, now I just need to locate the exact place of it and etch OKAY NEVERMIND midway thru Street of Dreams.
maynard Posted June 27, 2014 Posted June 27, 2014 people are saying the blip was intentional. axl apologists are a weird bunch.
LoadedNightraiN Posted June 27, 2014 Posted June 27, 2014 people are saying the blip was intentional. axl apologists are a weird bunch.Axl confirmed it was intentional
