AxlRoseCDII Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 This song is honestly one of the best songs Guns has ever written, I really enjoy it. What do we know about it? Do we know who plays on it? Do we know when the vocals were recorded for both Tommy and Axl? Who did the solo? Would you guys have any interest in this song reworked on a new Guns album with or without Tommy? Let's discuss this awesome tune. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MADDOGJONES Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 (edited) It's a nice track. For me, as is, with Tommy singing it's more of a B side track, but it's nice. It was cool to HEAR they were working on things quite different from the songs on Chinese at some point. Cool track... Really wish GNR had released more original b sides on their singles. There are some tracks that aren't officially out there which would have worked well as b sides. Things that don't fit the vision of the album of whatever but are still good tracks. they only have shadow of your love, right?

Silent Jay Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 Tommy Stinson Axl Rose Bumblefoot (rhythm/lead), Robin Finck (rhythm/lead), Fortus (Acoustic?), Buckethead (killswitch at the end) Frank Ferrer I can't believe it leaked 4 years ago. FOUR. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silent Jay Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 After it leaked Beta once said "We don't need to put out anything now" - "Everyone took the fun out of everything" Which was very bullshit. And then a couple of months later, Axl fired her temporally for releasing Appetite For Democracy 3D. Then in 2014 Bumblefoot quit, and Tommy and Duff etc. Good times. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
megaguns1982 Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 I say, put izzy on lead vocals and it would pass as a UYI filler 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EvH Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 (edited) It's a nice track and was definitely great to hear something "new". But in all honesty, the song really goes nowhere qnd the crazy solo is totally out of place, in my opinion. Goes to show how desperate we are for new music...

Can't you download it from VIMEO as mp4 and then convert it in mp3. On Vimeo there is "Download" button. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrangerInThisTown Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 (edited) I really enjoy the laidback vibe on it, great track, would have been perfect if Izzy was on vocals. This song is actually really good enough that I don't care that Slash or Duff aren't on it, just good music. This is the sort of branching out I can see Guns doing, not some shit like Rhiad.

FOUR. Given the line-up, I'd say this came up around the time Tommy was working on Village Gorilla Head (with later overdubs by Bumblefoot, of course). Maybe Axl liked the song and asked him to use it for GNR, that would be an educate guess. I have a question myself: do we know for sure it's Frank and not Brain on drums? And how do we know Richard was on it too? Was it somehow confirmed or just guessing? Edited March 9, 2017 by Twinaleblood Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlterL Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 Damn I remember wanting it to be played so bad, I know I'm in the minority but I am a huge fan of Tommy Stimson and always thought that it would have sounded great in CD itself, maybe instead of If The World or as a special track or something. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surprisingly releasing AFD 3D was the stepping stone to a reunion...it forced Axl to sign off on a Slash DVD in exchange for Slash signing off on Axl's...Beta's little mistake had a good result Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

default_ Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 I like it the same way I like So Fine, great song and way better than a lot of what is on CD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZoSoRose Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 Its a good tune. Liked it then and like it now. Not a full fledged NuGNR track though, as Axls vocals are an after thought. It was a cool leak but not on the same level as a leak of something like Atlas or The General Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gackt Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 It's alright, seems frankenstein'd from recordings from previous musicians like most of ChiDem If it ever shows up again in a setlist or a new album, I'm sure it'll be a stand-out track with a little more polish 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AxlRoseCDII Posted March 9, 2017 Author Share Posted March 9, 2017 Does anyone know or have an educated guess when Axl laid vocals on it? I want to say 2001-2002 because it sounds weak but I feel like I could be wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's Ashba with that horrible intro riff, Bumble solo, Frank on drums, and probably Richard playing slide. Axl's vocals date to similar era and sound stretched in Pro Tools. I think its also someone else on the solo. The tone is different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naah man, you're dead wrong. 2004<x (so after VGH), Bumblefoot on slides, the guitar solo is robin & bumblefoot. There's absolutely no Dj. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
