I'd say Absurd is easily the worst song they've released. At least My World ends quickly and isn't too repetitive.

I agree with this. Honestly, Absurd might take the cake for being the worst, even over My World, and that's because it took different incarnations of GNR to record, re-record, mix, and master a Frankenstein version of an already dreadful 20-year old song. At least My World was slipped in there without too much consideration. I can at least respect that as a gag. Still terrible, nevertheless.

I actually like So Fine for what it is, just a small quaint love song

It's cruise ship music that invokes images of men in frilled shirts and velvet jackets crooning to the backdrop of an electric organ player. This is why it must go.

You can wear them as long as you don't sing So Fine.

My World and I don't hate it...

Was there any point in wasting 24 hours with a round 1?😂

I’d make a pretty high wager that My World is the first to go lol

UY2 is kinda pointless because everybody knows it’s going to be Estranged. TSI will be the most interesting to see what is chosen. I reckon Human Being Or Ain’t It Fun.

I would recommend to announce Estranged as winner and let the other songs compete for 2nd place

GITR has the coolest intro and it rocks. Not sure how that counts for nothing even if someone doesn't like the lyrics. I don't have to relate to all the lyrics of songs I listen to. Sometimes I just want something that rocks and GITR is a badass rocker.

THIS! Don't understand why Get In The Ring seems to be one of the most hated songs around these parts. Musically I think it's great

There's also You Could be mine. And Locomotive. But yeah, Estranged will win most likely.

Musically it’s one of thier best guitar wise. It was a fun track back in the day. Slash opening with that guitar is awesome.

I went with Shotgun Blues, I just never really cared for it. 

I found My World funny to listen to - you know how you like to start laughing / crying from something that is so weird. 

[Arnuld]

My World, So Fine, and Shotgun Blues are three of the worst Guns songs on any of the albums. They will all go quick

TSI only has 2 good songs. Ain't it Fun is the clear best followed by Since I Don't Have You.

I fear that Since I Don't Have You will do the final round for TSI but to me that was always one of the worst songs of the record. I really feel some kind of love for almost every GNR track released with exception of a lot of CD tracks of course. But SIDHY is one of the few I really can't enjoy at all.

Agree. I'm not a fan of SIDHY. I sounds really whiney.
