ZoSoRose Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 For just a 3 minute track, its pretty interesting The lyrics are a little silly but I appreciate them because it sounds like honest Axl. The verse melodies are very early 2000s pop, but it sounds cool with the little piano intro and lead guitar lines. The chorus is classic Axl and heavy as hell and then the solo is great. I also dig that its Verse/Chorus/bridge/Verse/Chorus. Its to the point but also a little different in terms of structure. Sorry's structure is similar with only one chorus before the bridge. I think this is an awesome GNR song and what I want from unheard material. A finished version would be great Crazy that this and State of Grace didn't exist to us a few months ago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Live Like a Suicide Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 (edited) I think this song could be a great hit if they polish it up, keep Brian and give Slash a solo on the end.

You're all alone now You forgot about the others you were begging for You're all alone So talk to the ones that you once ignored You're all alone Used to be a little crazy now there's so much more You're all alone This is how i hear the chorus: "I got a lot more than i bargained for You're all alone now You forgot about the others you were begging for You're all alone So talk to the ones that you once ignored You're all alone now You used to be a little crazy now there's so much more You're all alone" There is a third set of vocals over the chorus, but i can't make them out.

Alejandro GNR Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 I love Axls singing here...specially the hey heys (I think they show Axl still wants to be himself haha) That solo doesnt fit...get Slash there and we’ll have a GREAT song Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, that split second cut at 1:34 during the first chorus seems to cut out 'now' in the third 'you're all alone' line. Does anyone else notice the same? Maybe i'm just hearing shit.

I said this in an earlier post, and hate to say it, but reminds me of N'sync or Backstreet Boys. I'm also getting a little Eminem in the chorus. Wish it didn't because I love the tone axl sings in and I think the chorus is cool.

My wife puts up with A LOT from me lol. I converted an entire level of our house to a music listening area / arcade / bar and she put up with it. She's seen GN'R in like 5 states, including about half a dozen times in 2011 (the worst of all GN'R tours). She deals with my total obsession with music and often re-works our finances so I can buy whatever ridiculous boxed set I feel I need next. The list goes on and on. Having said all of that, if I even remotely suggested that she get back in the kitchen, she would slap me so hard I'd start thinking Silkworms is a good song! 1 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flayer Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 I would love to hear Perhaps extended by another minute or so. The chorus around “you’re all alone” is too sweet to hear just twice, I’m always wishing for more at the end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnrfan2001 Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Yes make this longer The voxophone effect i think that's what it is called should be longer too This is interesting I like it and that bass is very cool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powerage5 Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 I've listened to this song so many goddamn times since Friday it's ridiculous. This song is just so infectious to me, been a long time since a song has struck a chord with me like this. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lies They Tell Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 This song is a great example of why I'm such a fan of Axl's voice. He uses it in so many different ways and this song has another version of Axl voice that we've never heard before. This is why he's a genius. How many other singers have so many different voices? I can't recall even one. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be totally fine with music area, arcade and bar. We don't have a basement (British) but the entirety of our garage is filled with motorbikes, pieces of motorbikes and oily rags. Your wife is winning I reckon. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oneway23 Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 First time hearing this on headphones, the guitars sounded more like Finck than May. a little more TWAT than Catcher, I don't know. Are we sure this is Brian? A huge fan of this era, but, this song? I don't know...this song, like seemingly so much of the CD stuff, has some very cool components that never really coalesce. Yes, a tight mix and professional mastering sheen would help, but, this one just meanders. Never really gets to the next level for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yoshimura Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 (edited) Keep it at 3 minutes. The length is perfect. A compact mid tempo epic is needed. There are already long enough epics. If it keeps you wanting more, then it's done its job. Edited September 17, 2019 by yoshimura 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
