RichardNixon Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 I was just looking through the Billboard 200 and GN'R's Greatest Hits is still there and has been (on-and-off?) for nearly 20 years. I was thinking if GN'R released a companion album it would surely do well. What are your choices? Greatest Hits: Volume 2 1. Nitetrain 2. Mr. Brownstone 3. Rocket Queen 4. Used to Love Her 5. Dust N' Bones 6. Dead Horse 7. Coma 8. Pretty Tied Up 9. Locomotive 10. Estranged 11, Oh My God (maybe use another version) 12.. Better 13. New song 14. New song Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New song Some of those aren’t really considered “hits”. We (the fans) consider them great songs but RQ and Locomotive weren’t singles.. so they’re not “hits”. I think what you have listed would be a “Best of” and if ever made that could easily be a 2 disc compilation 👍🏼 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get what you’re saying but then it would be an album of the other singles/promo singles that were lesser known, very low charting songs so that defeats the purpose of the term “greatest” hits. The Garden is one of my favourites but as a single it didn’t do too great at all, Pretty Tied Up is another favourite, single wise, didn’t do good either. It just wouldn’t make sense as a “greatest” hits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom2112 Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 Well if they were releasing a best of or another greatest hits, they have to release it with the hits otherwise it's not going to perform, and tbh if I had it in my cd changer in the car they are songs I still want to hear every now and again too. So... jungle ISE SCOM Rocket Nightrain YCBM NV Dust N Bones Jive Estranged Dead horse Pretty tied up Live and let die SIDHY Yesterdays Heavens door (live) Better This I Love SOYL *A good new song... which remains to be seen* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokingarthur Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 What’s left? Subtract GH1 and you’re left with basically the other half of what little music GNR has recorded. It’s almost laughable. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first one in theory made sense but came out at such a low point for the band and without any involvement from the partnership that was created regarding the old music. Take out the last 3 songs and put in Brownstone, Estranged, and Used to Love Her and its as good a GH collection as you're going to get. Better packaging would have also gone a long way.

The Matinator Posted February 10, 2023 Share Posted February 10, 2023 1. Shadow of your Love 2. It’s So Easy 3. Move to the City (1988 Acoustic) 4. Nightrain 5. Garden of Eden 6. The Garden 7. Dead Horse 8. Pretty Tied Up 9. Estranged 10. Hair of the Dog 11. Oh My God 12. Chinese Democracy 13. Better 14. Hard School I tried to keep it in the spirit of the original and only include “hits” so all the songs besides Hard School are all charting singles or had a music video made for them.

Gordon Comstock Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 It's kind of surprising they didn't release another Greatest Hits in 2016. It could've sold really well if they'd capitalized on the reunion hype, especially if they added a couple new songs. Basically just replace the last 4-5 songs on the first GH with Nightrain, Better, Hardschool (or whatever CD leftover they would've done before the Village leaks) and a studio version of The Seeker or something... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because this is Guns n' Roses and they hate us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
