Duff27 Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 So pretty simple, of all the Chinese Democracy era songs, which one would you like to have seen be played by the illusions line up on the Use Your Illusion tour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damn_Smooth Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 This I love. It has a solo Slash could handle and Axl's vocals would have been better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
estrangedtwat Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 TWAT is the best.....but yeah, I'd have liked to have heard TIL without waiting almost 20 years for it, so I would've known back then it wasn't very good and to not get my hopes up.

RandallFlagg Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Prostitute, they DID play it, remember? That's why the band broke up cause at the last show in Argentina after they embraced Axl grabbed the mic and said 'That last song was about what this top-hatted afro-drunk junkieleatherfuck marionette is gonna put me through until Chinese Democracy comes out' then slapped Slash and dived into an open sewer that swept him back to Malibu. Y'all musta repressed the trauma. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Street Of The Blues Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Shackler's Revenge probably would have revived their popularity at the time and been a departure from the classic band sound. That's why everyone wasn't with it besides the drugs all kicking in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Facekicker Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Except Shacklers is a terrible song.Realistically, Twat, Maddagascar, Catcher, Prostitute & BetterCan't see TIL getting a run out with those awful lyrics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magisme Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Prostitute or TWAT are the only two I wouldn't have minded seeing. SOD would probably be the most likely, but that song is so fucking lame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doakes Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 This I Love would have been the only thing worth hearing from the Use Your Illusion lineups.As others had mentioned, that song was already being written in that timeframe and more importantly it was fresh in Axl's mind then.If there ever was this mythical "2000 Intentions" and Slash had compromised to play another ballad-- It would have been This I Love... And in this perfect world it probably would have transcended the previous ballads.Otherwise--I like Chinese Democracy the way it is. Top notch musicianship.It certainly should've come out sooner but it needed THAT many players and THAT many years to be made... Or else it wouldn't have come to fruition at all with the classic lineups. It became more or less an art experiment than a stadium rock album release to appease the masses. But they totally missed that late 90's wave of skewered, industrial, aggressive rock. Oh My God on End of Days was a good step.But they needed to follow up with Shacklers, Silkworms, Chinese Democracy (early rio version), Madagascar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wasted Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 IRS, Street of Dreams, There Was A Time, Catcher in the Rye, Riad N the Bedouins, This I Love, Prostitute could definitely been on UYI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

megaguns1982 Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 I think Catcher or TWAT, Slash could bring both of those song to an epic level, Although both songs are already pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Satanisk_Slakt Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 This I Love no doubt. It isn't great on CD and the lyrics are absolutely awful, but it's actually a really great song that just didn't reach its potential. I Slash and Duff would have brought it to another level musically and the lyrics, as bad as they are, wouldn't have seemed quite as pathetic if the song was written by someone who had been heartbroken a year before as opposed to like 15 years earlier.

username Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 Easily The Blues, in it's 2001/2002 form by the original band. It would be fantastic and I think Slash's style would really fit the song too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
