tomazrui Posted February 22, 2010 Author Share Posted February 22, 2010 (edited) I think there's some love, alright And PLEASE don't quote GeorgeGlass, he's a cupcake, people. Yesterdays and Catcher are the songs I most look forward to hearing live. And I love Yesterdays (studio, demo, live performances, both official videos) great song.I wish I had the full video of Yesterdays @ Sao Paulo Yeah, I love it. This version is the one on Live Era, right?I was only nine :anger: Edited February 22, 2010 by tomazrui Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Granny Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 Axl is GnR. W all love Axl. GnR isn't GnR without Axl. GnR is GnR with anyone at any other 'position' but singer. I'm not saying current GnR is bad (I actually thing it's the best post original line up yet). But face it, not one memebrs opinion means a damn thing. No way say Ashba approaches Axl, "hey, lets play your old song Estranged"....Axl would laugh and say 'come again'? Why are you talking to me"?Yes, which is exactly what comes across if you here people talking about working with Axl, isn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granny Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 (edited) I have always really liked this song -- it was the complete antithesis of the other "ballads" on the Illusion discs -- fast, taught, to-the-point. Axl's vocals were at a peak on this track, and I think the music video -- in retrospect -- is almost eerily prescient. You could pretend that video was made from archive footage in the late '90s after the band broke up, and all the footage and the nostalgic style of the video itself would seem really fitting. It's almost like whoever put together that video could tell the band's days were numbered.This was kinda my impression, too. What I see is a disillusioned Axl, looking much older all of a sudden than in the other UYI vids and not just because of the unusual pigtail hair style. A band falling apart, each member doing his own thing already, no visible contact or interaction between them. Eery, that's the right word.

Nintari Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 (edited) When I saw this thread, I instantly heard Paul McCartney singing "Yesterday....all my troubles seemed so far away.....". Edited February 22, 2010 by Nintari Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweet child 76 Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 I always liked Yesterdays. Thought it would be cool hearing in an unplugged version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D.. Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 I would love them to play Yesterdays. As I would like them to play almost any songs out of the illusions really. But I'm already very pleased with the current setlists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheLionSpeaks Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 This line up could pull it off. I think it would go well right after or before If the World in the set list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
