Vincent Vega Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 What do you guys feel are generally the most underrated or underappreciated GN'R songs?Myself:The Garden - a great psychedelia tinged song with awesome vocal and guitar work and great lyrics. The Alice parts are fucking awesome.Don't Damn Me - Great riff, great lyrics, another great vocal presentation from Axl, the bridge is awesome.Back Off Bitch - A great bluesy rocker that is just down, ugly and dirty. Pure venom. With an amazing intro. I like Matt's drumming on this one, too.Don't Cry (Alt. Lyrics)-- Everyone seems to prefer the original. I think this version has the better lyrics, Axl's vocals on this version are better. It's perfect.Since I Don't Have You -- I love it, even though it's a cover. It's fun, it's a great GN'R-style spin on Doo Wop. The weird Voodoo sounds at the end are random but really cool. Axl's vocals are really good on it.Black Leather -- Fucking sexy. Perfect guitars N' Vox.Sympathy for the Devil - An awesome swan song for GN'R, a perfect cover, Axl sounds great and Slash's solos are epic. The band sounds perfect in general and it's a great tribute to the Stones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love it.Since I Don't Have You - Mullets gonna mullet.Sympathy for the Devil - Great cover in no way ruined by a background guitarOh My God - Fucking awesome song, better than everything on CD save for TWAT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
estrangedtwat Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 Shotgun Blues.Axl says FUCK or variations on fuck (such as motherfuckin' and fuckhead) a total of SEVEN times in just over 3 minutes.That might not mean a goddamn thing to the kids on the internet today, but in 1991 when I heard this song in 8th grade, that was the hardcorest shit EVER.

jman2000 Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 Bran, and the rest of you pretty covered my list. I f'n love Get in the Ring and Garden of Eden. Sympathy for the Devil is good too. There are lots of under rated songs people just need to give a good listen to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
