2020_Intensions Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 Fun little idea I thought up. Let's say you want to introduce a friend to GnR who either hasn't ever heard any of their music, or only casually knows of the hits like Sweet Child, Jungle, Paradise City. Instead of tasking them with listening through a whole album, you put together an EP. What four songs would you have somebody listen to to give a good taste of the band? Mine would be: 1. Perfect Crime 2. It's So Easy 3. Yesterdays 4. Hair of the Dog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Live Like a Suicide Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 Everyone knows Appetite, so I would give them Live Like A Suicide and then ask for the copy back. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackstar Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 (edited) II think 4 songs wouldn't be enough, so I'd make it a 5-song EP (edit: no, 6 songs, actually): 1. It's So Easy 2. Nightrain 3. You're Crazy (Lies) 4. Civil War 5. Estranged 6. Locomotive Edited March 24 by Blackstar 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

invisible_rose Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 (edited) 1. Rocket Queen 2. Ain't it Fun 3. There Was a Time 4. Coma I picked something from each major era/album, but avoided the likes of Civil War, YCBM, Patience, Estranged & (maybe) Nightrain because I'd be surprised if even casual fans hadn't heard these. Otherwise, it would be exactly those. 1. Nightrain 2. You Could be Mine 3. Civil War 4. Patience Edited March 24 by invisible_rose 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cosmo Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 SCOM YCBM TWAT You're Crazy (Acoustic) Estranged Technically it would surpass the length of an EP (25 minutes) but since no one's really worrying about that, this is my choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
