  • Banned in China: Apparently the Chinese Cultural Department has issues with the entirety of Chinese Democracy, despite just the title track bothering them. It's also the basis for a bad joke: Chinese Democracy is banned in China. Also the Guns N Roses album.
  • Fake Brit: "Down on the Farm"
    • An attempt at an English accent so dire, it makes Axl a prime contender for the Dick Van Dyke of hard rock.
  • The Pete Best: The original line-up was Axl, Tracii Guns, Izzy, Ole Beich and Rob Gardner. Yes, only two of them are in the image atop of the main page.
  • Troubled Production: Chinese Democracy, which used lots of money, time, and people.
  • Vaporware
    • Chinese Democracy, the musical equivalent to Duke Nukem Forever, took 15 years to be released.
    • The music video for the second single, "Better".
  • What Could Have Been: If the band hadn't essentially disappeared off the face of the planet in the mid-'90s despite being one of music's biggest rock bands at the time, there's no telling just how much bigger they could have become.
