UK BETTER SINGLE 5th January 2009
« on: December 11, 2008, 04:43:05 PM »
I was just looking on Ebay under Axl Rose and someone is selling a Better Promo CD that has been sent to UK Stations .. Anyway i was looking at the picture and there is a sticker on the case which says "Guns N Roses Better released 5th January 2009.

That could possibly mean an actual single release or i guess that the Radio will start playing it more from Jan ..  :question: :rockon:

As pictured/listed, rare promotional 1 track DJ jewel case CD promo with PR/info sticker on the back of sleeve

This has been sent to a VERY LIMITED number of UK radio DJs and so a VERY collectable CD for a VERY collectable artist(s).  This was sourced from a leading UK radio station.

Versions of tracks on this CD may differ in length/sound/format from any other (commercial) release.

I do NOT sell fake/copied/bootleg CDs; check my 100% feedback for assurance.

Catalogue Number: GNRBETCDP1

Just got my copy of the Promo,

Guns N' Roses 'Better' Released 5th January 2009

This is the second single taken from the album, 'Chinese Democracy' which charted this week at #2 in the UK. The album scored a record 8.4 million streams when the album debuted on MySpace starting last Thursday. This is the biggest promotion in MySpaces 5 year history, with every MySpace territory signing on to participate. The album has sold 2.6 million copies worldwide in its first week of release.

Great. And if we get a release date for the video now, I'll be the happiest bunny around.

Actually it says that it only sold "2.6 copies worldwide" which isn't a heck of a lot.  In fact how do you sell .6 of a CD?

Wow, it means US really sucks ( I mean Best Buy and lack of promotion really sucks )
only 1/10 copies sold in US...I guess it's usually about 1/2.

Did it really sell 2.6 million? If so, no way in hell can you call that a flop.
