wasted Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 A sub question should be why/how/what is One in a Millionrated so highly? my theory is if you don't think it's racist it's musically badass and lyrically fascinating. Or is it Die hard-itisis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or is it Die hard-itisis. Or younger fans who think it's a cool song because it's politically incorrect. There's a difference between politically incorrect and offensive though. Political correctness has to do with the use of certain words regardless of the context. OIAM would still be offensive if Axl said "blacks" and "homosexuals". The words just make it worse. Or Donald Trump supporters Edited July 25, 2016 by Blackstar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you by take care me. The navigating process is actually interesting for me. I don't mind doing it (even more, I want to do it).As for writing down the songs' names, you can also write their abbreviations, if writing the full names is taking too much time.I'm sure it's doable in 10-15 seconds.

Or is it Die hard-itisis. This song got me in a lot of arguments and in a damn near fist fight in junior high lol. There was no question that I was a huge GN'R fan in school and when the OIAM controversy broke, all eyes were on me, at least it felt like it. As I stated in another thread, a lot of my school mates could not understand why I would continue to listen to GN'R during that time, being a black girl. I even had someone tell me, "You're stupid and confused, they don't want you as a fan, they hate you. Have you looked at your skin lately...you're not white." Even then I understood what was up. It was simply art. As ugly as the lyrics were, I knew it was characteur and not how members in the band personally felt. Our school had the coolest music teacher who gave us an assignment to submit a popular music ballad for our choir to learn and perform. I brought Lies and submitted Patience. She liked it, not sure if she had heard it before though. She picked my song. We were going to learn Patience, that was until parents of some of the other kids complained to my music teacher because they were aware of OIAM. She asked me to bring another so I submitted Tesla - Love Song. Our teacher went with a one from Luther Vandross instead...but this is how all the drama for me started in school surrounding this song. OIAM marks an I interesting point in my teenage years. That being said, it rates very high on my list because of it's raw and gritty feel. I love the chord progression, and Axl's vocal delivery in this one is stellar. You're right...There is probably a next to nil chance of seeing this one on any set list in the future, (especially with the current racial tension and political climate, here in America at least). However, if the band ever wants some instant press and a bit of notoriety once again, all they would need to do it dust the cobwebs off this one and throw it in the set list lol...

wasted Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 So I think people like it because it's either un-pc or rebellious or just kind of interesting with great music. It has a darkness that kind of off sets the lyrics and makes them seem more brooding or ominous than just ignorant arrogance. Maybe some of this stuff makes people think it's deeper or better. It's like the difference between Burton and Nolan Batman for me. It's just that Patience is the most successful song, so OIAM is seen as the best. Like Nov Rain v Estranged. Rocket Queen One In a Million Coma Estranged Prostitute are the cool songs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
