Skid Row: "Get the Fuck Out" or "Beggar's Day"?

Message Bookmarked

Back in 1991, Skid Row released two versions of Slave to the Grind. The "explicit" version contained "Get the Fuck Out" at the end of side one, and the "wal*mart" version had "Beggar's Day".

As an teen, I obviously got the explicit version, but now I wonder if having "Beggar's Day" would've been the better decision.

Or maybe, I should just pretend like none of that ever happened in the first place.

Beggar's Day? Is that a cover of a Nazareth song? If it is, Beggar's Day wins.

Get the Fuck out is great. I heard Beggar's Day once and wasn't impressed.

I bought the explicit version, my friend bought the censored version at our local wal-mart, I remember thinking that Beggar's Day was much better, and wishing I had bought that version. Of course, I haven't heard either song for a decade or more....

isn't this the sort of quandary that file-sharing was created to solve?

'get the fuck out' is very good. i listened to it a couple of weeks ago, actually.

four years pass...

'get the fuck out' is a terrible piece of shit. sebastian, i don't give two shits if you have a wife to go home to after you get a series of blowjobs from your groupies. corny, trite musical structure that sounds like you're trying to imitate motley crue's 'immortal' take on 'smoking in the boy's room'. fucking shite. 'beggars day' is obviously better and i haven't heard it.

slave to the grind is somehow still classic.
