Ok...
I've spent the past many days listening to Guns N' Roses new album. All the songs are listenable and I like them all, but there are some that are slower than the ones that really rock...and I really like the ones that ROCK.
Here are all of the songs on the disk in the order I like them.
Better (Classic GNR)
Scraped (Love the A-yos!)
Riad N' The Bedouins (What the hell does this mean? Who Cares - LOVE IT)
If the World (The music of the song sounds like it came out of a Tarantino movie!)
Shackler's Revenge (Use your Illusion GNR)
Chinese Democracy (Classic Axl)
Those 6 songs are SUPREME. They are my favorites of the album, they are inspired and will be on the next GNR Greatest Hits. Absolutely Exquisite.
IRS (The attraction here, for a tax guy, is obvious)
There was a Time (Reminds me a little of Use your Illusion)
Madagascar (The movie quotes in this one make it so much better)
Catcher in the Rye
Sorry
Street of Dreams
These 6 songs are good. I like them. But they are somewhat...ordinary...Th e 6 in the previous category are SUPREME, these are just...Good. Bordering on great...but just not there.
Prostitute
This I love
These two songs are also...good...but they are slow. I enjoy them as background, but I haven't listened to them enough to say...CHOOSE them if I had the CD case in hand and was using the controls on the radio.
Anyone else listen to this album!?
