Mr. Dude Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 I can honestly say that no Classic GNR song is over rated. I love them all. COMA really captures the essence of running a code. WTTJ is my all time fav song! And Madagascar is so hauntingly beautiful. It's really unfortunate that Axl had trouble with his ear piece at that VMA show.I wonder if someone may have intentionally sabotaged his equipment for that gig. I know several bands have had sound/equipment problems at the VMA- Pearl Jam and Neil Young immediately leap to mind. . They seem to have a history of monitor problems at high profile gigs (particularly festivals and medleys-situations where outside entities have the means, opportunity, and motive to impact their performance) so I don't think its out of the realm of possibility.

niceguy Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 TIL and TWATI mean wow, I cannot find anything special at all about these two songs, yet they are held up as some sort of White Album for the 2000s on this forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Little EMO Annie Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 . It's really unfortunate that Axl had trouble with his ear piece at that VMA show.Team Brazil should pay you to do public relations for Axl. The way you spin everything to excuse Axl's failures is pretty impressive.No payment necessary for telling the truth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodzilla72 Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 Seriously though, to answer the actual topic here, do all of the supposed "CD2" mystery songs qualify?You guys have been speculating about how fantastic and life-changing these tunes will be ("Thyme" and "Atlas Shrugged" & "Seven" etc- most of which sound like working titles but whatever) for so long...how could they possibly live up to these expectations after all these years? And isn't that the most overrated thing you could imagine?Hey just bumping my previous answer to the thread topic question- just in case you all missed it (read "intentionally ignored it") while you were arguing about whether Hendrix counts as hard rock or not.

I'm feeling less bloated today and I'm in a fantastic mood, therefore I'm cracking jokes.Seriously though, I have to laugh some times at the crazy things that people come up with the defend Axl. Dude wasn't prepared for the VMAs. Period. He's human, so that's ok. Was there a shit ton of pressure? Should he have prepared more? Yep, but he didn't. He rarely does. I'm not saying any of that is ok, but it's expected. I just don't feel any need to run around looking for other things to blame outside of the one and only thing there is to blame.

Słash Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 There was a time outroIt is a good song, but I do agree that Outro is over rated, well only 10% of the GNR fans would know that song, but it is over rated, Bucket did a great job, it sounds amazing, but it is not that complex, he is just using a kill switch which is his signature thing.

It doesn't matter. The only relevant question is: is it good? and yes, it is. It's great. Only Bucket plays like that. The techniques he chooses to use are of no significance, cause he's saying something musical. It elevated the song. It had no release before Bucket added his outro.

Little EMO Annie Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 Strange things can happen before live performances at Awards Shows. John Travolta slaughtered Idina Menzel's name before she sang LET IT Go at the Academy Awards. She did admit that it threw her for a second. But FROZEN was such a beloved movie that the world would have forgiven her if she totally blew it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
