ChristmasFnatic Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 and which one has many crappy lyrics?For me, most would be UYI2, AFD is close though. Least I like is ChiDem, just depressing and borderline cheesy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PirateRadio Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 (edited) Use Your Illusion Deux, I guess. I like Estranged, Locomotive, Breakdown, and Don't Cry alt. Civil War tries, but for me, the instrumental is better. And who can forget My World (kidding).The worst...Jesus, Chinese Democracy. I like it. I can listen to it. But holy hell, it's a mess. I don't even care about the overproduction and clean, high pitched vocals. It's the damn arrangement and organization that just leaves me feeling...like what the hell happened here? Lyrically, the lack of choruses, or the drumming of choruses at inopportune times, is unsettling...in a bad way. Edited June 8, 2013 by Time to DIE!!!

TombRaider Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 Favorite: UYI 2Worst: random songs, not an entire album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shotgunblues1978 Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 UYI 1. Big fan of the lyrics on Right Next Door To Hell, Perfect Crime, NR, Garden of Eden, Don't Damn Me, and Coma especially. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimb0 Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 I can't decide between the one with Coma and the one with Estranged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Un42nutzly Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 DDMe is sick. "Sometimes I Wanna..." Is as punk as it gets! Followed by Coma, Prostitue and Estranged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EvH Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 I would add one vote to UYI 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T.wa.T Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 Best written is probably UYI2.My favorite lyrics are on Appetite and LIES.Then I would have to go with Chinese Democracy followed by UYI1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nosaj Thing Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 That's a hard one. I would say UYI II closely followed by UYI I and then AFD.Chinese Democracy lyrics are utterly awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest cbgnr666 Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 I can't decide between the one with Coma and the one with Estranged. Two of the greatest songs ever recorded imo.Awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GnR Chris Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 (edited) I don't think CD lyrics are awful as a whole. Some are bad. Parts of "IRS" and "Riad." But I love other songs like "Better," "Street of Dreams" and "There was a Time." Brilliant.I guess I'd have to go with Illusions 2 overall because of "Estranged," "Breakdown" and "Locomotive." Not to mention "Yesterdays," "Civil War" and "You Could Be Mine.""When I come home late at night don't ask me where I've been. Just COUNT your stars I'm home agaiYEEan."But AfD is unapologetic, straight forward and has some sweet lyrics, in my opinion. "Jungle" and "Rocket Queen." "Nightrain," "Sweet Child." Damn.

DieselDaisy Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 I must admit, Democracy contains Axl's poorest suite of lyrics. It is weird considering he had so long to prepare for that record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhazUp Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 UYI2 for me in terms of sheer creativityAFD while less philisophical lyrically has lyrics that are honest and fit with the music perfectly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alfierose Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 UYI 2 that might be an age thing maybe, if you asked the 18 year old me I might have said AFD. I like a lot of the lyrics on CD so would put that before UYI 1. To summariseUYI 2AFDCDUYI 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wasted Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 probably between AFD and CD. UYI are erratic. CD makes sense to me more these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useyorappetite Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 Can't decide between UYI1 and 2. too many great lyrics. you have NR and coma then estranged locomotive and civil war. and the rest of them are good too. besides GITR but i'm blaming that on duff.CD was disappointing cause i was expecting something better than illusions(witch has some of my favourite lyrics of all time). I was waiting for this great statement from axl. But it looks like he didn't spend much time on them they're mostly there to fit the music. But besides IRS, sorry and getting a little whiny on shacklers they're good. Prostitute, madagascar and STOD are UYI material.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Roses Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 (edited) UYI2 -> UYI1 -> AFD --------------------------------------------->>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> CDAnd how about Lies, i know OIAM's lyrics are shit even if it was misunderstood, but how about the other songs? Patience's lyrics are pretty good. Edited June 9, 2013 by Black Roses Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
