Sosso Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 (edited) Someone has raised this question in the show thread and I would like to know your opinion about it. I think that Axl should be the one on the lead vocals. Melissa has a great voice, but is better suited as a background vocalist. Maybe she can change my mind, idk.

kever20 Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 Her live performance of Sorry with Brain was pretty cool. Would not mind an official release of that. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azifwekare Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 If Izzy, Duff and Tommy have songs where they do vocals, I don't see why not Melissa. She's got a good voice and could add an interesting dynamic. I would rather a duet than full lead though, I've never been able to really get into the songs with Axl just on backing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AxlRoseCDII Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 Kind of off topic, is it weird to anyone else how Melissa’s gone radio silent on social media? Hope she’s okay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
estrangedtwat Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 Maybe she's just acting her age and realized what a colossal waste of time social media is? Nah, doesn't sound right. Women love that shit, no matter their age. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soon Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 I think she was working as an influencer for the sugar/candy industry and then when she got sick due to her diet she posted a warming about that diet. Therefore she lost her job as an influencer. Hopefully Guns pays her enough that she just doesnt have to shill for free boxes of M&Ms anymore. OT: Sing lead on what though? Like Axl leaves stage and then she sings SCOM? That cant work. But a Mel solo spot where she sings a cover (nah, I cant believe I just promoted the idea of MORE covers! ) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Id have to hear it before I could say if it'd work too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viruzzz Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 I won't mind it, but I don't think it would happen. People want Slash, Duff and Axl, and that's what they'd probably get, for the right or the wrong reasons. But I think it could be good to give her a solo spot in the shows... Better than hearing seeker every show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doakes Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 Fantastic idea. Hopefully they give her a spot to perform something similar to the haltime remixes with Brain. Let her introduce the lesser known songs on tour. She'd sound amazing on the open of Eye On You. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moreblack Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 She's a good singer, but I'm not sure for rock. She's more of an rnb pop sounding singer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Guapo Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 She should sing the "love's so strange" lines in Locomotive, like many have mentioned since they started playing it live again. Apart from that, maybe something similar on a new song where it would make sense lyrically to hear a womens voice interacting with Axl. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
double talkin jive mfkr Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 (edited) you know you did you did you did = on live and let die sounds very nice i'd like to see her bust out garden of eden in all seriousness, she should be busting out half the lyrics/choruses of the songs considering AXL is fucking done - here are songs she could do don't cry entire song, rocket queen outro, locomotive outro, dead horse intro/outro, patience outro, then izzy and duff take care of the rest again AXL is done - try and find one song that he's nailed since 2017 - you won't find one Edited November 10, 2019 by double talkin jive mfkr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Free Bird Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 Melissa on lead vocals? Why not? On her own solo LP. But please not for GNR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGeneral Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 Let her and Axl do "Paradise by the Dashboard Light", the full performance. I'd pay just to see that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom2112 Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 Yep, let her come out front and show up the red headed one. I have no problem with her singing lead vocals on a song. I also have no problem with her singing a duet with Axl. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, Chinese Democracy. But yea, he's hit or miss on pretty much everything else. Usually miss... I wish they'd crank Melissa's mic up during Locomotive, and let her sing co-lead vocals on that.

Mendez Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 I think Melissa would sound great on colead duties on some metal riffs, like what Axl did with Sebastian Bach on "Stuck Inside". Very moody and heavy atmosphere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
