Chinese Democracy: The Album

[TVC15]

Axl said 13 tracks will be on the album. I've been so excited about finally having high quaity studio versions of the 6 or 7 tracks we've heard so far that I almost forgot that their are 6 or 7 other tracks we have not even heard yet.

 

I'm assuming a few of them will be singles. Has the band mentioned the titles of any of these other tracks? I'm hoping they throw the new single on iTunes before the tour begins on October 20th...

check out the great site HTGTH --> "The new album" 

[bazgnr]

All I know is, the day the album comes out, I'm taking a sick day. ? ?
 

[mdttkk]

i really badly wanna hear the full version of Check mate (or whatever the song is called)

[Robman?]

lets not start that again,

well i'll be going after school to buy it, then listen to it 7 or 8 times, take it to school the next day, rub it in everyones faces, then listen to it another 7or 8 times

The funny thing is, I would always make fun of fans who were *so* into a band that they would do something like take off work for an album, a ticket, etc. ?Now, after the wait, the anticipation, hearing the leaks, seeing Guns in NYC this year - there is no question that I'm going to spend the whole day taking in Chinese Democracy when it's released. ?It's no longer "how could I take off work?," but "how could I *not* take off work?"

[TVC15]

check out the great site HTGTH --> "The new album" 

Hahaha...yes, but those have been posted for years (since 1999?).

 

[Eclipsed107]

I'll be getting it on the Friday before it comes out because my local record shop sells new cds behind the counter as soon as he gets them in.  So I'll have it a full 4 days before all of you (HOPEFULLY!)!

I'll be listening to it nonstop that weekend.  woot.

[Dadud3]

Ill probably download it once it "goes gold", and then buy 2 copies of it once it comes out.

[shoup]

The 13 songs:

1) The Blues
2) Madagascar
3) Chinese Democracy
4) Better
5) IRS
6) There Was A Time
7) Prostitute
This I Love
9) The General
10) Seven
11) Thyme
12) Ides Of March
13) Friend Or Foe

That's my prediction, it's fun to speculate.

[Steel_Angel]

most of the songs rumoured will most probably be on a dif album, not Chinese Democracy.. Better wasnt rumoured until axl mentioned it. And thats gonna be on the album.

[TVC15]

With its new intro, I think "Chinese Democracy" would be an awesome album opener.

 

[oneway23]

I was just going to post that...Watching the awesome uk comp dvd now (fantastic effort), and feeling the symphonic atmostphere in the intro, I am gonna go on record and say that CD is the opener.

[shoup]

Hell yeah it would. It would be just like that part at the beginning of Pearl Jam's Ten. End the album with that too.

[BigDeech]

There Was A Time should be the last song, its so epic and long and shit....perfect ending.

Well said,agree 100%.

1 It is the album track title.
2 It is a rocker.
3 New intro is kick ass;

Must be the?the opener song IMO.

[Steel_Angel]

will be the opener.. song.. 

[KIKO2K6]

will be the opener.. song..?

What is so funny ?!Maybe for a 15 years old boy,it is funny enought. ( xupa cu )

[Ak1nney]

No offense to TVC, but this thread kinda made me excited, and it turns out that it just sucks.

[Steel_Angel]

will be the opener.. song..?

what does a 15 yr old boy have anything to do with this thread? What the fuck.

[BluesGNR]

The opener will probably be something that we haven't heard before.. if it's something we've heard, it'd be CD.

10) Seven

My guess (You forgot Rhiad):
1) Chinese Democracy
2) The General
3) Better
4) Prostitute
5) Ides of March
6) Madagascar
7) IRS
Rhiad and the Bedouins
9) Thyme
10) Seven
11) This I Love
12) The Blues
13) TWAT

[WeHeldTogether]

Rhiad wont be on the album

[Reinaldo]

Rhiad wont be on the album

Ok, Mr. Mysteron2, just one question: why??
It was listed along with TWAT and Used To Love Her as an option on GNR setlist for the South California shows. Doesn't make sense to play a new song that is not on this 1st album.

some pf songs which we heard would be on 2 and 3rd album

[fabitch]

I wonder if oh my god will be on CD or not?

[Nytunz]

i really hope the new Oh My God version will be on the album! Would be great!

[feestybaby]

I love all the predictions and i really cannot wait, I dont believe the birth of my first child will be anything on the excitement and anticipation I'm feeling (ok slight exageration). But you guys missed 'catcher in the rye' from your predictions? I think that song has so much potential and I'd love to hear a studio version

[BlowUpYourVideo]

Dizzy said it wouldn't.

[masterdan]

Didn't someone once say it might be a double or triple album?  I DO remember someone saying there was 26 out of 32(?) songs done...  I'm pretty sure it's not going to be just 12 or 13 songs on this album, and if it is, I think there'll be another album coming out shortly after Chinese Democracy. 

[russtcb]

I really think that CD will be the first song on the album, judging only by the new live intro.

I somehow missed that.

Well, it'll make a good opener I think if it's true.

[WeHeldTogether]

big boss was wrong, we never got an annoucement, what makes the rest of his information true

[Steel_Angel]

we never got an annoucement,

Well! Aren't you just Link Central?!

Hehe....jk....seriously though, I need someone to help me work this board better. I can post well (that's subjective) and that's about it.

I need a class or something. lol

[AxlReznor]

1 - Better (that guitar intro just sounds like a good way to open an album).
2 - General
3 - Chinese Democracy
4 - I.R.S
5 - Madagascar
6 - Catcher In The Rye
7 - Prostitute
8 - Leave Me Alone
9 - Oklahoma
10 - The Blues
11 - Seven
12 - Thyme
13 - There Was A Time

I think every one of those songs we haven't heard yet will be heavy rock songs (mainly because Madagascar, CITR, The Blues and TWAT are all ballady, and I don't see there being any more of that kind on there).

And I think Riyadh & The Bedouins and Silkworms, as well as a re-recorded Oh My God will eventually be released as B-sides (or bonus tracks). ?They may do some covers for B-sides, too... *dreams of hearing a studio recording of their version of Sailing*

I believe that we heard that Catcher wont be on the album... someone verify that?

[AxlReznor]

According to Wikipedia, Richard Fortus confirmed that Catcher In The Rye would be on there.  I know Wikipedia isn't the most reliable source in the world, but still... if it's not on there, no major loss.
I believe that Axl did say he's not sure whether or not Brian May's parts will remain on the finished product.

[BlueTree'sandGreemGrass]

1 It is the album track title.

I've always said Chinese Democracy would be a great song to open a show / album. Bring it on!

It's true. Richard confirmed CITR on the album in some of his emails...

Didnt Axl say it wouldnt be? During the interview with the radio station (cant remember which one)

if it is then hopefully its been redone a bit, its a brilliant song, ive just listened to it too many times.

[GeraldFord]

I think IRS would be a good album opener.

Richard emailed me that CITR WOULD be on the album. It better fuckin' be. That's about the best Guns N' Roses song I ever heard. Now THAT does live up to the hype.

[BluesGNR]

Glad I'm wrong!!
