axl8302 Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 suprised this isn't a bba thread.Nah Slash played on the song so he would not have touched this one with a 10 foot poleMost songs on that list are good! Check the comments, it's like the worst list ever complied.It's a terrible list, no argument there. I take these things with a grain of salt. Who really cares what Spinner or any magazine has to say? NR is a great song to me, and that's good enough in my mind.But I was responding to the comment about BBA. He only posts negative articles about Axl/the new band. He wouldn't dream of posting a negative article about a song that the old band didSorry man, I quoted you by mistake. I agree completely about BBA... he's a major prick.

John Bonham Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 (edited) Bad songs by Good Bands? November Rain is awesome, and even the mainstream pretty much has an orgasm every time they hear it...In hindsight, it's definitely a classic, but when it came out, my friends and I all thought: "WTF? GN'R has gone gay?"a lot of people outside the fanbase see November Rain as GnR's shark jump.Yup. Edited February 4, 2010 by John Bonham Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I saw this thread I imediately knew that four specific posters would have negative comments about it. And surprise, surprise. Two of the four (including you) made negative posts.What kind of friends did you hang out with? I hung out with the musician/rocker crowd and I don't ever recall any of them saying it sounded like GnR turned gay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DF's right -- for as popular as it is, many people acknowledged NR as the shark jump.It's a really good ballad but I don't like it as much as I used to. I admire it more than I enjoy it these days. It's very bombastic and usually when I play it now it's more on a nostalgic level than anything else.Certainly not a bad song.

luciusfunk Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 Even more shocking, Radio Ga-Ga at number 2. I'll give them the fact that to most people, NR is way overproduced, but seriously, Radio Ga-Ga?This list bears no relevance.Dude, "Radio Ga-Ga" is the worst Queen song ever. And there are some cruddy Queen songs out there.Dragon Attack.I rest my case."My Baby Does Me" or "Don't Try Suicide".I rest my case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
