The last 1:30 minutes of the song are so kickass though. Like REALLY good, solos and Axl screams, 2 of the most awesome things about GNR combined into one section.

You have to get through the rest of the song though! Appreciate it is an unpopular opinion, I don't like that much of this record song wise which is a shame because I really like the production. Listened to it just now, it was exactly as bad as I remembered.

Human Being again for me!

Literally one of the best covers ever. 

Literally in your opinion.

I know this. I was talking about the second part, the cover of Big Dumb Sex.

Would have been cool if they had stuck in a verse:

Don't you, don't you wanna thrill me?
Don't you be afraid to tell me
Tell me if you think it's ugly
But don't you want to touch it anyway?
Now, I've been looking for a reject
And you ain't had nothing like me yet
So don't you think it's time for motion
I can take what you've been pushing, uh

Would have fit well.

For me Human Being gets the vote, great vocal recording, shit song, shit Kazoo section, just utter room temperature dogshit.

I'll take Johhneey over Look At Your Game Girl any day. I don't care about the Manson controversy, I just think it is a properly shit song.

Slash making a Bob Dylan song sound like Guns N'Roses was the best thing that could happen to it. The grump old cunt should be grateful IMO.

Still voting for Estranged even though it is the clear winner! Good choice overall though.

Civil War gets my vote again, both YCBM and Estranged are worthy of the win but I would prefer it if YCBM takes the crown.

What a fucking masterpiece this song (and all the others left) is.

Fucking hell, it's so sad that we'll never gonna get anything like this from Gnr again, just uninspired Chinese leftovers written by some long gone replacements. Fuck.

I always thought Locomotive was a glimpse into what the future of GN'R would have been if they had stayed together. Some of my favourite lyrics and guitar parts across their entire catalogue.

Civil War, can't believe Locomotive is getting so many votes! 

Pretty Tied Up gets my vote. YCBM for the win!

Very tough now, 14 years got the vote. It was between that and Pretty Tied Up, PTU just edges it for me as I prefer the melody and groove but there wasn't much in it at all.

Yesterdays got nothing for me

So tough now, Yesterdays is my last favourite out if the remaining tracks.

Locomotive. Just because a song is 10 minutes long doesn't mean it's "epic", or good for that matter

/jk, I don't mind it, it's just my least favourite of the bunch that are left.

I voted for DC Alt again

Going with Don't Cry Alt, I do enjoy the end half of the last verse, but the song should have been a b-side on the Don't Cry single rather than on both albums IMO.

It is already like picking which of your kids your are going to get rid of, very tough! Went with Get In The Ring in the end, it's not a bad song, but it is quite silly and the end rant has always been something that reminds me of a petulant little kid having a bit of a cry about things.

Epic, great job. I love the way your vocals climb in the chorus. And I was getting a bit of a The Verve vibe with the backing track. Moving song. 

Thanks dude, we put it together from the instrumentals we have for the second album, pushed myself pretty hard with that rising melody line! Strings and choirs are East West samples, amazing stuff.

Time to die So Fine!

ALL RIGHT, WHO THE FUCK VOTED FOR LOCOMOTIVE????

Death Squad unite!

Love it! Nice and heavy

Absolutely not. It's one of Axl Rose's crowning achievements as a songwriter imo.

As for the chorus, tbh, I kinda see it as a song without a chorus.

The verse is where it's at with Breakdown, especially after the solo with Slash adding those sweeping lead flourishes. I'm off to listen to Breakdown now....

So Fine can make me happpeeeh by getting voted out this round. Would take GITR and SB over this one.
