  • I love this song & yea, Im Guns N' Roses fan.

    Axl's fucking GREAT singer I ever seen in my life.

    he's my God.

  • i prefer this version to the album version. still a great album, plenty of great singles on it, like madagascar, this i love, sorry, better and scraped.

  • yeah i like this song especially the last part

  • sweet vid, epic song (:

  • also in the newer version, the band is kind of screaming the nanana's, it sounds better when they're humming it like in here

  • They almost ruined the song without brian may guitar parts, its sounds very amateur now

  • Rubbish, thats just your finck hate talking, the new guitar work is clearly better to anyone who isnt a hater.

  • Better? Pull your head out of your ass. Brian May's work was superior and the man is a legend in Rock. Finck is just another medicore face in the crowd.

  • See you just proved my point, Brian may is a legend and Finck is relatively unknown. So you base your opinion on that without objectively listening. And after chinese democracy has been out for a while, finck will be better known. The solo wasnt one of brians best anyway, it was more like a 10 second bridge than a solo. So I am not saying Finck is better than May, I am just saying the new solo is better.

  • My opinion has nothing to do with rock n' roll stature. Finck is not a very good guitarist and is not worth being mentioned with Slash or Buckethead. It's kind of funny that he ditched GNR a 2nd time. Axl should have kept Brian May's work intact, it was much better than the garbage finck and bumble contributed to this song.

  • Well then lets take neither opinion as fact. After all music is subjective. I like Fincks solo much more, as I said to me May's is more like a 10 second bridge than a solo. And I also think bumble's outro is one of the greatest moments in guitar history (future history).

    Am I wrong? no, are you wrong? no. Music is subjective.

  • Hey Meesh, check the itunes charts tommorrow night and you will see the album is number 1 in the US and many other places. It number 2 in Australia at the moment on itunes.

  • yeah i saw it on the forum

  • I think I like the first solo better on the demo... it's more memorable right now... but I think I like the outro solo on the album better, although this version has some great licks after the 5:00 mark.

  • pues la han cagado con la version final y en grande =(, ni siquiera esta es la mejor version, anteriormente hay otra mejor que esta y que fueron malogrando cuando agregaron mas efectos de sonido y demas cosas

  • todo el mundo le reclama ahora a Axl porqué es que se cambió esta primera y perfecta versión por la final. Se ha malogrado la que hubiera sido la mejor canción del album.

  • one of my favs off the album good choice =)

  • This is amazing! I wish this were on the album. Brian May kicks ass!

  • Why did they remove Brian May's solo!

    It's the best solo i've ever heard!

  • Hmmmmm... there are some moments I like the album version better, but overall I think this demo is nicer overall. The music isn't mixed as much in the demo. Seems like the album version throws heavier guitar riffs in odd spots. Especially in the intro and the midpoint of the song around the 2:00 minute mark.

  • i like this demo better than the finished version thats streaming on the myspace page

  • Rage Against the Machine is so much better than this band. Fags listen to shit like this.

  • wouldn't that make you one for listening to it as well? or are you immune to your own pathetic opinions?

  • MEESHENATOR1, thanks for putting this up. Do you have the album yet? How do you like it? I love it!

  • Call me Meesh :D, yeah I got it on Thursday and Its absolutely amazing, Im tipping big things for Chinese Democracy

  • whats your favorite song? I cant choose between "catcher", "there was a time" and "this I love"

  • definatly Catcher In The Rye, then If The World followed closely by Street Of Dreams

  • The funny thing is even Slash said he liked the album. He was asked in an interview and he could have said "no I havent heard it yet" if he wanted to be polite, but no. Slash went on to say the album was great and Axl is a Genius!

  • Brian May's guitar parts have been removed...word is the other guitarist butchered the first solo, but the outro solo has been turned into amazing. thats from the ppl who already have chinese democracy in their hands

  • I have it in my hands, I like the new version more in every way.

  • So do I, its just incredible

  • I'm back again, this song is seriously amazing.

  • spread the word

  • This video is hilarious, it's like a really awesome emotional song with retarded looking cartoon characters, for some reason it really makes me laugh.

    Seriously though, this song sounds awesome and I just can't wait for Chinese Democracy to come out.

  • I've looking at the pre order tracklist on iTunes and this song seems to once again be called "Catcher In the Rye"

  • i WOULD Be so happy if this was the album version

  • the other version is supposed to be 10x better than this

  • but unfortunately its 10x worse

  • thats where you're wrong :D

  • you can stream the whole album for free on gnr's offical myspace right now, not sure if they will keep it up or just a teaser.

  • Sounds like Queen.

  • I feel the same about old folks, everytime I see them makes me wish I had a gun.

  • LOL

  • how a body took a body, and gave that boy a gun.....

  • best song ever.

  • little bit early to be making a call like that, don't you think?

  • no because all the songs have leaked except maybe 2? shacklers revenge and if this world are ok but if these are the studio versions for the rest of the album then its garbage.

  • its a demo from around 2000-2002, and every leak you've heard bar If the World, Shacklers Revenge and Chinese Democracy are all demos. :)

  • i hate it that this is the gnr without slash but most of the songs are really good

  • doesn't this song have something to do with John Lennon?

  • When i asked on the Chinese democracy video leak which song Brian May is in soemone replied saying this song, and also said the song is about the murder of John Lennon. Mark Chapman was obssessed with the book called Catcher n the rye

  • Brian May's played parts in 4 Guns N' Roses songs, this song 2 others and another song called Atlas Shrugged, but I don't think his parts are still on Catcher N' The Rye

  • I only looked for this song for the Brian May solo . This song is good but I not a fan of Guns new stuff becuase they shouldnt go under the same name. I read in this mornings paper Brian May was taken out of the album and that he was dissapointed.

  • My favorite part of the song is the middle between 2:00 through 3:02

    Hopefully this song receives the attention it deserves. No clue why the released the chinese democracy song first. Sounds like a leftover 80's song slighly modernized for the new millenium.

  • I hope they keep the Brian May guitar parts on the album.

  • they didn't

  • really how do u no?

    cuz it sux if they didnt...

  • because the early early leaked versions are obvious that he's playing on it. the new ones and the finished is completely different.

    plus

    some dude said he's seen the sleeve and no credit to may is given. so that sucks

  • This song was perfect as it was, and Brian May's solo just took it to greatness, but with it gone, it's like a deflated balloon.

  • I hope they release the song "best of me" I found it in 03 or so on napster, great song

  • yeah its on the album, but its called If The World

  • great song......!!

  • Hey Meesh, happy birthday buddy :)

  • cheers mate!

  • You guys watch...This song is going to go down as one of the all-time greats...

  • and the best part is, its not the final version :D

  • Yup! These people have no idea what they're in for from this band...and there's still 2 more albums of material recorded..

  • ok man its a great song but idk about best song of all time

  • What you have to remember is its only a demo..and a bad one at that..wait till the album comes out..

  • true, well see Nov 25th if that stays the release date,

  • I hear Brian May recorded for this song, I hope his parts remain on the final version.

  • Sadly, it won't... There has recently leaked a new version of "Catcher" and he isn't...

  • great song but

  • This song is amazing; it will definitely garner a lot of airtime on the radio. Guns N Roses have finally returned.

  • Thanks for the post i feel this song will do well along with I.R.S TWO GREAT TRACKS.

  • AWESOME song :) Can't wait for Chinese Democracy. November 23, this song will be on it!!!

  • 25th now! (:

  • wow i'm ettin pissed it was Aug then oct now Nov

  • It's back to the 23, officially according to the countdown clock on the GNR website.

  • love Kingdom Hearts, Love this Song. nice job dude!
