Guns and Roses on Chinese Democracy
A surely unique perspective. God knows what it all means, but you can "watch" the extremely static video and listen to the song on youtube here. Lyrics below, courtesy of Prof. Don Clarke. Don't think they'll be performing at the National Center for the Performing Arts anytime soon.
CHINESE DEMOCRACY
It don't really matter
You'll find out for yourself
No, it don't really matter
I'm gonna leave this thing to somebody else
If they were missionaries
Real time visionaries
Sitting in a chinese stew
To view my disinfatuation
I know that I'm a classic case
Watch my disenchanted face
Blame it on the Falun Gong
They see the hand and you can't hold on now
Cause it would take a lot more hate than you
To stop the fascination
Even with an iron fist
All they've got to rule the nation
But all I got is precious time
It don't really matter
Guess I'll keep it to myself
No, it don't really matter
I guess you'll leave this thing to somebody else
Cause it would take a lot more time than you
Have got for masturbation
Even with your iron fist
All they've got to rule the nation
But all I got is precious time
All they've got to rule the nation
But all I got is precious time
It don't really matter
I guess you'll find out for yourself
No, it don't really matter
So you can hear it now from somebody else
You think you've got it all locked up inside
And if you beat 'em enough they'll die
It's like a walk in a park from a cell
And now you're keeping you're own kind in hell
And if you're Great Wall rocks blame your self
While they all reach out for you hand/help?
And we're out of time...

Even when Chinese can't have democracy, which is dangerous to their mental health, they can at least line up and get money:

Oh good, a song made by a band. I bet they're now 'leading experts' on China as well.
This will just mean more shallow people who listen to this song think they're 'experts' on China and Democracy and smear more bullshit on the issue.
Now why couldn't they sing a song about Edmund Burke and his thoughts on the French Revolution?

[...] The world’s biggest rocktease, Axl Rose, finally released "Chinese Democracy" two days ago. A rumor that the album contained backwards verses from Mao's "Little Red Book" was repeated on ABC's World News Now on Monday morning by anchor Jeremy Hubbard. But the actual title and lyrics on the album were enough to spark an intense reaction from a writer at China's Global Times, which was reported throughout Western media. Time's China Blog has reprinted the title song's controversial lyrics. [...]
