no it was Axl....sometime in a late 2002 radio interview. No way to tell what he considers them to be.

the three Buckethead songs...interesting. The only song I don't like on the album is Shackler's Revenge.

I like the lyrics except for this line...

"You close your eyes
All well an' good
I'll kick your ass
like I said that I would"

that line makes me cringe in a way certain lines in Shotgun Blues and Get in the Ring make me cringe. Get in the Ring is still the most cringe worthy Gnr song ever recorded-IMO.

What's terrible about the lyrics in Sorry?

Apart from "I'll kick your ass" I can't think about anything that's even remotely bad.

While we're on the subject...

People can think what they like about the music and structure of the songs on Chinese Democracy but don't tell me that the lyrics are crap too.

Feel free to call me a nutswinger but that would just be pure lies.

If there's one thing Axl will never lose it's his ability to write brilliant lyrics.

Another line in Sorry that sounds out of place is near the start where Axl says

"I don't wanna do it" sounds forced and rushed.

I like that one with the silly voice....literally makes me laugh cause I could see him stoned in the studio cracking up while singing it.
