Is there a new version of this? Just wondering coz everyone is talkin bout OMG agian.


 peace

No, there's no new version.? But I think Oh My God is the only "new" song we're allowed to discuss at the moment, so that's why this thread's up here? Cool

Off topic but are you really going to all those shows in Australia?

Yes I am mate. I have booked everything apart from some accom.

edit: Are we really not allowed to talk about the other songs?

Damn, that is awesome about the concerts.  Have fun beer


As far as the other songs, I think we can talk about them in the context of live performances.  But some "recent developments" have made discussing the details certain songs off limits for the time being  smoking

I 100% agree with that. Ive been saying that forever. I can just picture a video for Oh My God similarly to that of Garden of Eden, with Axl staying put like that, and just singing his head off

I'd really like to hear OMG and RATB on this tour. RATB is one of my fav Guns songs. But OMG has got some balls and gets me really pumped.

I don't want to be a dick, but just because the vocals ain't to your taste doesn't mean they ain't propper. They are fitting to the style of the song.

I didn't listen to it for a long time, I just do it at the moment and it's still a great song.
everything is not totally well balanced,  but the structure of the song and a lot of its musical elements are great.
I hope we'll see a final version one day.

This is one of my favourite tracks right now. I really think ''Oh My God'' could fit perfectly, in terms of quality, in Chinese Democracy or, if its re-recorded, in an hypothetical new album. Axl's voice is incredible, and the chorus is addictive and catchy as hell. One of the best GNR outros ever. The only weak point of the track is the lack of a ''killer'' guitar solo.

I burned a copy of CD once to put in my car and I replaced SR with OMG (left right that at track 2) and I loved it there.

I wouldn't scrap any song of the actual tracklist, but I'd include OMG between Scraped and Riad.

IMO, the song would make a really fucking good playable track on Rock Band - listen to the drums.

Also, if I had a chance to get the individual master tracks, Id make it sounding less like a demo. hihi

one thing is sure, it deserves better than a bad schwarzenegger movie.
Axl said he reworked the track with the actual band (minus DJ Ashba), right ?

i think the song fits great with CD... when it first came out i didn't love the song.. i was so fired up for new gnr... and didn't really know what to make of OMG.... but after hearing the rest of CD.. and the progression of the sound of the band.. the song fits perfectly... i think OMG is on the more extreme side of the new sound meter and i just wasn't ready for it in 1999.  i think a song like IRS or TWAt would have been better back then to ease us into the new band...  i really started to get into OMG once some of the new demos started to surface and i burned my own version of CD and included OMG with the new tracks..   I would love hear the song again revamped as a bside or even as a rockband release... I think axl has said before that the song wasn't exactly what he wanted and is sort of a demo... its def missing the detail that every track on CD has.. come to think of it.. the song might have fit better on the demo cd i put together better than on the final CD.   kinda rambled here.. long story short.. great song.. .just took time for me to appreciate it.

Yeah apparently they remixed it with new vocals and a wilder intro with more guitar or something like that.
I'd love to hear that.. even after Chinese Democracy came out, this song is still one of my favorites..
