*Possibly* The General, terrible quality cell phone recording *NO LINKS*


Recommended Posts

The intro is so pink floydish, kinda like going down, and then in the middle, sounds a lot like Maddy. And then from nowhere, it begins to be a Slow, dark, heavy, kinda like doom metal thing. It's my 3rd favorite GN'R song so far

Sounds like a good rocker, I like the melody, however I do have to say that this song will never live its hype. Not sure if it's made to be a hit song or a single. It seems kind of like a regular song like IRS or Scraped. I don't think it has the potential of Better or Chinese Democracy, speaking of New GNR only of course.

That description goes for the fan made?

Thanks! That must be what I heard. It was 3:56 which seemed longer than I thought though. 

I heard lot's of things some time ago but 3:56-version is kinda new to me.
Is there more to tell about it ?
(*NO LINKS* ofcourse)

So it's the orchestral intro and then goes into the Evader version?

were there more leaks of TG than just that original really really low quality one? Cuz that is the only one i have heard so far  ;)

There's the orchestral intro that was played live (and a 'studio' version, fanmade AFAIR), the low quality cell phone clip, and Evader's remake of the cell phone clip (Silkworms-style).

Anything else labelled as 'The General' is going to be fanmade or just a different song entirely.

Does anyone know what the lyrics to the Evader version are in the second verse between "...to the young" and "My hopes, my dreams..."? It's not the same as the first verse. Every set of lyrics I've seen misses that part out.

The spoken bit? I can sort of make out "That's all folks..." and then he says something else.

It's right after "to the young" when the music first drops out, there's a similar verse in the clean vocal style, but with different lyrics. 

This is what we've come to as a fanbase: trying to find, and then dissect lyrics for, a fan-made reconstruction of a shitty cell phone recording of an unreleased track because the band/label refuse to release anything new in a decade.

It's fun to be a GnR fan.

[Chorus]
Do you remember who did it?
Who did, that to you...
Who would do this, to you?
Who would do this to you? to the young!
Who would do, that to me?
Or hope to use the fact you knew me
Who wants to lose?
To lose
To lose

[Verse]
My hopes, my dreams have died
Now I rest my hate in the rumors as they're pushin' through
There's a child now chained to the bed now
To me it's time I'm always workin' and I'm gonna get out
I think it's high time you should fuckin' die, child
I think its time you've broken everything inside
I won't be ever satisfied
This is why, baby, you know I got you

[Chorus]
Do you remember who did it?
Who did, that to you...
Who would do this, to you?
Who would do this to you? to the young!
Who would do, that to me?
Or hope to use the fact you knew me
Who wants to lose?
To lose
To lose
