But I really like the new Guns and Roses song "Better" I've heard nothing but bad things about the new album and I know that its not the "real" G-N-R. but that particular song moves me, like when I was younger........Anyone else have similar feelings about this or other songs? 
Flame on!

the verses and bridge are ok, but that song has one of the worts choruses i have ever heard.
to me, it honestly sounds like when they were recording he just wrote in on the spot.. there is no melody no lyrics and a horrible vocal style
like i said...in the chorus,
the verse is sorta interesting.
but, by all means...you're cool to like whatever you want... but i seriously giggle when i hear that chorus.

If not, someone here needs to write it....probably would make a good blues number.

Flame on! | Personally I love the New Guns N Roses. Yeah, they are not the old Guns N Roses but they are still good. People just can't accept change.
Coincidentally, my favourite song from the album is Better  |

|  | Yeah, I've got the moves like Jagger. | | Join Date: Oct 2006 Location: G.R. MI | | | The first 5 or 6 tracks don't do it for me, but the rest of the album is pretty good IMHO.

Personal favorite song is "Sorry." Verse sounds like something Outkast would've done and the chorus sounds like an old school Sabbath riff only with on key vocals.
I definitely recommend the album to anyone who liked the direction that Axl took during the Illusions. Breakdown, Estranged, Yesterdays, Garden of Eden, November Rain, etc.
