Re: what does Axl/GNR have to, to regain your interest 100%
when they're signing the copy of suicide does slash say he hates that photo then axl says how much he likes it then won't shut up about it for the next few mins??
maybe i've misheard & misunderstood..
Love Pretty Tied Up and OIAM.
Never really cared for Don't Damn Me. Maybe because I prefer UYI II to UYI I, but typically the UYI I fans I see praising Don't Damn Me, while UYI II fans stick up for songs like Breakdown and the alternate lyrics Don't Cry, which lyrically is stronger than the original. But I can understand why the original version is more popularized.
I just always loved this from the alternate cut...
...and when you're in need of someone
my heart won't deny you
so many seem so lonely
with no one left to cry to...Pure awesomeness
yea i love the lyrics 2 dontcry.alt far more than the original 2. n axls performance is fantastic. (shame he seems to not even know the lyrics to either version these days...)
don't damn me is a weird one. some really really shit lyrics, some really awesome lyrics, a bangin' tune & one of slashs all time best solo's.
breakdown i think suffers from being in an album alongside Civil War, Estranged, YCBM (& KOHD for some fans - 14ys, PTU, So Fine, Locomotive, Dont Cry for me). on any other GnR record Breakdown would be a standout track but it's simply overshadowed by it's grander company.
always thought PTU was one of the best Illusions songs. i absolutely love the izzy material on those records.
OIAM is one of the best Guns songs & prob is my fave on Lies but there's some fierce competition, it's a cracking record. in fact most GnR albums are pretty class! best band ever u guys!

Cool fan made video of the live era version. Good UYI clips from the tour, man, they were awesome, and what a fantastic song, its just beautiful.

Axl also says he wants to open for U2...."THAT IS THE GOAL"...funny. Slash doesn't even respond.
I think its pretty clear who the alpha dog was in that group back then. Izzy was the one who seemed to not give a shit.

Most singers are the leaders... They are the "frontman"... It seemed to me like Slash and Axl were the tightest for a while, or most serious about where they wanted the band to go and what they wanted the band to be. The other guys were very important, but clearly Axl and Slash were the two most important. Slash spoke on behalf of the band a lot.

I don't know if it was that Estranged video or the one from Chicago, but Axl was so into one of Slash's solos (the I think it was the dolphin sounding part). Obviously the man had a ton of respect for what Slash brought to the table. What the hell happened? How do you get from that to almost 20 years later STILL hating Slash?
We've all been close to people we are no longer close to. Hell, I've become friends with ex-gfs through facebook and had normal conversations with them all these years later - one of which ended really badly. I'm not saying we're ever really going to be friends, but it's cordial.
Time heals a lot of shit...what the hell could have happened that was so bad that 20 years later you'd still hate the other person that much?
