How much impact

[Tronx]

How much impact could IRS have on the public?  Many think that the song isnÂt that great or powerfull, I personally like it and love it, but once again how the public will react to this song is a good question, we know that ¨better¨ is gonna be a hit no matter what, and other songs can make it also (Catcher in the rye, madagascar, blues, )

Do you think this is one of the weakest song on the album?

[BillBailey]

I think the finished studio will be light years ahead of the leaked demo. Anyone who has ever heard this song played live knows it is much more powerful then it sounds on that old track.  I think that the song could be a third or fourth single. It has that great intro that is very zeppelin esque...

[L!VE FREE!]

Of everything we've heard, it's probably lyrically the weakest, but the arrangement is dynamic. The final studio version will have a much more fast paced and build......one would think. That's what I really dig about the song.
Like at the climax of the song it when Axl screams "you know it's true.." which blends into the guitar. Shiver enducing. Then that sassy Bucketheaded solo. Oh My.

[Madagascar07]

Yeah the scream in it is fantastic, i really like I.R.S and for me it would be good as a 3rd or 4rth single. I think the public would like it, but then again who am i?. Its very powerful for anyone who has seen it live, good good song

The real impact of the IRS will be felt by Axl when he goes broke dumping money into an album and never releasing it and the IRS goes after him for unpaid taxes.

The final version is gonna kick some serious ass

I'm really not a pessimistic person (not sure on the spelling) but the longer this drama goes on I have to start to believe all my friends that harrass me and say Chinese Democracy will never be released.

Is that Oh My a George Deckay reference my friend?

None of the demos would have any impact on the mainstream at all.

Sure they might reach top 10 in the rock charts, but won't touch the main charts. They are simply not strong enough songs to warrant any excitement.

Hopefully they represent the filler, because if they are the killer the album is going to be a joke.

[Lucky]

I find CITR one of the best GNR songs ever...
top 5 definitely.

[Spprw]

I don't like that he's in that weak falsetto the whole time.. he should recrod at least another vocal track.. one in a lower register

I fail to agree with you there buddy. If Better doesn't hit the mainstream hard then there's only two things that could be happening;

. End of the world

Failing that

. The media are even more retarded than most people even dream of...

But yeah, I agree with the final I.R.S. is gonna be a lot better than the studio we heared, just like TWAT. The Blues goes without saying so does CITR - I have my doubts if Maddy will make it as much as the harder rocking songs, but I think it will do alright compared to some of the bawlzy music that's out there today.
