can't believe i'm saying this, but it's grown to be one of the highlights of the album for me.

Glad it's not just me.

All my GNR mates hate this song, but I listen to that vocal melody and the power of Axl's voice in it and I think it's awesome.

Ahem...?

Not all, I’m quite fond of this song too. Guitar wise, it reminds me of an updated Jungle intro at the start, crossed with a bit of Led Zeppelin influence.

Vocally it’s ok too, aside from some bits in the chorus that sound very cut and paste together.

But overall, it’s one of the better rockin moments on CD

i think the instrumental version of the song is what made is really grow on me (also true for shackler's).

i never realized how badass the main riff is. i also really like the little guitar slide during the chorus for some reason.

i'd love to hear the current band jam on an instrumental of this. that would be killer. just keep ax away from the mic!
