It's hard to get into the music when the vocals are strikingly bad. I like the Houston one but Frank needs some work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pedrolg Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 Highway to hell is a very high pitched song. It is firmly on what would be thhe "mickey zone". Yet, Axl delivers every single line of it with rasp and venom, and it sounds awesome. I'm absolutely sure that, were it a GNR song, it would be mickeyed from beginning to end. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5fGGpHXKOX8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BorderlineCrazy Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 Just now, cremefraiche said: Neutral party just weighing in - I think the point they're making is that in 2010 AXL sounds better, not the band, or the song itself, just vocals But someone said this show's performance of the song was one of THEIR best ever and he answered with that video. I agree about the vocals being better (still far from Axl's best anyway) but that doesn't make the whole performance better. I understand Axl's singing might ruin it for some people nowadays but that's pretty much what his solo band was doing back then for most of the people. 2 minutes ago, IncitingChaos said: I agree the instruments are much better now, however the song is made or broken on Axl's vocals and you cannot sing a song like this with Mickey Mouse vocals.... these are the best 3 I could find over the last decade from 3 different eras...I like the 06 one the best due to the vocals being so precise.

Personally, I feel Axl has never been able to do YCBM justice after 1993. Some performances have been better than others but never close to the old days IMO. YCBM is my favorite song, the one that turned me into GNR when I was a little kid, but it's also the song where I just don't expect anything from Axl.

Did you guysfigure out what he said or meant Yeah that's what he said. Considering they were in the Yesterdays/ Used To Love Her / OTGM part of the set he was probably talking about any of the tracks that usually appear in that spot, those 3, My Michelle or either Catcher/Sorry/TWAT. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for responding, do you know what he meant Slash doesn't want to do a song or doesn't want to do what. Was Axl being sarcastic or something 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was Axl being sarcastic or something They have their own internal chat going on between songs that the audience cant hear, someone must have suggested "hey lets do that song" and then Axl jokingly replied that remark since he actually said it into the mic for everyone to hear. I guess it would make more sense if we knew what song it was, if it was a song like There Was a Time then it would make a lot of sense, rather unlikely it was a song like My Michelle but who knows! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyles Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 So I've been to three NITL concerts now and not once has he sung like Micky mouse. It's fucking weird that his voice sounds like that through the videos playbacks. I just don't get it. He sings awesome live. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LA_0013 Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 That 2006 performance was decent vocally. But the overall guitar sound is way to synthetic and electronic for YCMB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dead Flower Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 Was a fucking awesome show. Slash and Axl on the same stage = fuckin dream come true moment. Coma and Rocket Queen were my favs. Rocket Queen always good for a dance when played live. Good shit. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Double Talkin’ Jive, This I Love and Coma were scorned as was the shape Axl is in. It seems to be the only weakness any review ever finds. Once again, what in the actual fuck does his personal trainer do for him besides mix his post gig cocktails?! Frustrating to see that guy on tour with them everywhere and yet Axl doesn't look any better for it! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
