Man that sucks, which means mine will b edited too then

[jellyhead]

This edited version isn't new.  It's the radio version that was released as the single in 1993.

Is the song remastered too???

[Dont Try Me]

Is the song remastered too???

no, none of the songs, they all sound the same as on the albums they come from

[ppbebe]

> the word "cunt" has been edited out
just like "Michelangelo?s loincloth".

[jellyhead]

Is the song remastered too???

no, none of the songs, they all sound the same as on the albums they come from

They are newly remastered, check the credits.

They are newly remastered, check the credits.

if that is the case.....why does it sound exactly the same to my ears as the original album versions?

Because mastering/re-mastering isn't a big deal.  If you listen to old Bowie or Led Zep stuff that has been remastered you'll notice a difference.  With GNR, the tracks were recorded to the highest standard so remastering doesn't make to much of a difference.  Things i have noticed on GH are that the drums are bigger, some backing vocals are more pronouced.  It's all very sutle and most people wouldn't notice any difference.

You will probably have to use good HiFi-equipment to notice the difference.

Completely off topic

Is KOHD the Days of thunder version or the UYI2 version?

UYI2.  It would've been cool to have the DOT version, i don't have it on cd.  Nevermind...

[tp4ever84]

Some of the songs sound better and others sound exactly the same.  I'm listening to it on a 6 speaker home theater system though.  I think the cd is worth it if you have a hifi speaker system.  I wish they would remaster all GNR cd's.  Except let Axl and the rest of the original band remaster them this time.  

GNR for fucking ever.

[shaun]

It`s funny, over the past few days every record shop i walk into has a stack of GN`R Greatest hits for sale and they`re playing GN`R non stop. Needless to say, i have not brought a copy for myself. I have those tracks already  

[Dizzy]

Another reason not to spend money on this bullshit CD.

[MR.BROWNSTONE]

That sucks they had to edited it.   I guss when it goes on sale in the U.S. you will be able to buy it at Wall-Mart then.

[erose]

it's funny how they put an explicit lyrics tag on it whern there aren't any bad words in those songs .... just like there aren't any bad words in the wttv dvd....

[Jizzo]

It has a PA sticker?

[dave-gnfnr2k]

is since i dont have you censored too??

[Mattman]

What the hell is this?  Guns N' Roses were originally the baddest rock 'n' roll band on Earth.  Now, they're getting the word "cunt" bleeped on their Greatest Hits album?  Why is it even necessary to do this?  This is a band that used to say what it wanted, whether you liked it or not.  That was part of their appeal.  In fact, part of the reason why Axl used words like "nigger" and "faggot" in "One In A Million" was to prove that nobody could tell him what he could or could not say.  And now they're censoring "Ain't It Fun" on GN'R's Greatest Hits.

I mean, Axl isn't to blame - after all, the record is being put out without his permission - but it's still a bummer.

[badapple81]

I would have rather the swearing stay and a sticker on the front like the UYI sticker  

[kockstar99]

haha i remember that  

"This record contains objectionable lyrics, if you have a problem with that go buy something from the fu#$%ing easy listining section"

or something like that... that was funny....

lol, actually it was "This album contains language which some listeners may find objectionable. They can F?!* OFF and buy something from the New Age section."

Thats fucking classic.... i love it...

[grog mug]

Why is this song on GH anyway?  What a terrible track list, hopefully this 3 album plan will come through and there will be an all new GH cd to buy in the future.  

[Dizzy]

I have the original CD release of The Spaghetti Incident with a similar sticker on the front.  It says.....

Chock full of unsavory subject matter and explicit lyrics, etc etc etc.....so don't say we didn't warn you

[Captain P?l]

as far as i know GNR was the pioners with a PA sticker!!!

  I have that sticker to. when i opened the cd i liked it so much i alctually kept the sticker and put it on my binder or something. That is truly retarted how Aint It Fun is censored. If Geffen felt that strongly about it, why dont they release a clean version and an unedited version of Greatest Hits?

[kockstar99]

coz that would cost money... They are trying to make money not spend... That and coz they are Record company full of fuckers... fuckers and cunts!!!!

[matt88]

I just bought GH 2day, and listening to aint it fun with the cunt edited takes away the power of the song. It's a fuckin insult

[D]

that whole god damned shitty song should be edited out, how fuckin shitty that aint it fun and sftd is on there and no estranged

ive listened to estranged 6 times in the past 2 days and its amazing how they omitted that shit and put those 2 lame ass songs on there, no rocket queen or nightrain

WHYDONT U JUST......... FUCK OFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

haaha theres no MR Brownstone either!!!!
If they were going to pick Spagetti incident song and edit it,  it should have been "Hair of the Dog"  That one was at least on the radio, censored and uncensored..

[D]

since day one on this board ive vocally declared my distaste for that fucking aint it fun song

its an ok track, dont get me wrong, slash's work is awesome but lyrically its garbage, wow he says cunt, oh my god thats so cool he said cunt, mike monroe is garbage and that song is a piece of trash compared to any original gnr song

gnr 6 god damn cover songs? that makes GNR look like one big god damn talentless j0ke which is far from the truth! im very hostile and pissed off this week so over look me somewhat everyone but the more i think of aint it fun the more i agree that this shit aint fun at all, it sucks! it really fucking sucks!

[kockstar99]

is since i dont have you censored too??

Its is not... Yep Were Fucked??

That line is in the cd

[jellyhead]

Guys, this edited version of Aint it fun isn't new and wasn't created for GH.  It's the radio edit version that was it released as a single in 1993, read the GH notes.  Pick up a copy of the original Aint It Fun single and the swears are edited out.

[gnrforever666]

this is the reason i am not going to buy it is because of the edited song.
