emilxert Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 Well, one knows, having watched Axl's stage activity, I came to the conclusion that he lost his voice again (I hope not forever).Everyone noticed that during the Rio concert. After that Roses started to partly improve the situation. He can now sing about 3-4 songs from the start. Especially he's making efforts to have "Jungle" sung in his 2010 voice.But then..then he just gives up trying to sing the rest of the set the way he used to the previous year. It's just painful to listen to the outro of "Don't cry". I mean, the whole, let's say, drama just slips away, cause he makes the "Mickey Mouse" of himself. Same thing with "Child", "Paradise", "This I love" ( where his regular beast voice is required), I'd add "Estranged" (outro again), especially it's frustrating to listen to his inability to cope with "You could be mine", "Nightrain" and other energetic songs.I do hope that he reads this soon and will try to do everything the way it needs to be done. It's never a reproach or a command, just an advice.What do you think about this topic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JAxlMorrison Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 I thought Don't Cry at Izod last night was fuckin tremendous... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Natural Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 Axl has absolutely killed Nightrain and This I Love live.... Go to a show man, his voice sounds great, YouTube doesn't do it justice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Bond Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 He's found a good balance between the rasp and the clean vocals. He seems to "save" the rasp for the songs where its really needed. The recent shows haven't sounded anything like "Mickey Mouse" as the Rio show did. There's a difference between his regular clean singing and sounding like the "helium" voice. His clean vocals sound good when the suit the song (verses of Sweet Child for example) and his rasp kills when he needs it to (the last few performances of Jungle are nothing short of awesome). The energy is still ther,e so perhaps he's just adjusting his voice to be able to perform for three hours without cracking, losing it, becoming out of breath and so on.

ChristianGNR Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 (edited) Have you been to a show this year?And for the record, even in Rio 2011, Axl's voice was WAY BETTER than any 2002's show. Edited November 18, 2011 by ChrisMaciel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sooner5900 Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 I bet when Axl gets near 50, his voice isnt going to sound the same as it does when hes 27.... oh wait.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demon Wolf Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 It's improving as the tour goes on. Same story as in EVERY GNR TOUR EVER. While the rasp isn't all there yet, he is tonally much more secure in recent shows than Rio and starting gigs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saber_ Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 I think you should watch more than just one show. Just a thought. Or hey, y'know, maybe, y'know... watch the Eddie Trunk show where Eddie Trunk himself said Axl was unbelievably good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhazUp Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 (edited) His voice sounds pretty good now. Rio was absolutely horrible, but he really seemed to pick it up and change that for the following shows. Hopefully he can get back to his 2010 awesomeness, because last year imo was the best he sounded since 93 Edited November 18, 2011 by WhazUp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChristianGNR Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 I still think that Rio was not THAT bad. I was there and i figured that he was not great as 2010 shows that i went, but he was doing ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
