Crash Diet Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 Each also has at least one track sung by other members of the band: lead vocals on "So Fine" are performed by bassist Duff McKagan - the song, that was dedicated to punk rock musician Johnny Thunders, who died from a drug overdose before the recording of the album.

GnR Chris Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 "So Fine" isn't awful, bacardi. Rather, I should say I don't find it awful. It's clearly on the lower-rung in terms of Gn'R output, but it's nice as a change of pace, sort of like "You Ain't the First." A lot of people hate that one, but I've always thought it pretty cool.

alfierose Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 I don't hate this song but whenever I listen to it I always think cruise ship singer. That's kind of what it reminds me of, I imagine a guy in a tux proposing to his girlfriend whilst the band plays on. It seems one of the most un GnR songs recorded.

I bought the album and frankly it's very good indeed. One thing though, Duff is only a special guest on the album and he plays only 3 songs. I thought he played bass on all tracks but no...

themadcaplaughs Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 Used to like it a lot more than I do now. Whoever brought up that cruise ship comparison is on the money. You love it because Duff is clearly having a great time, yet you are still a tad embarrassed for him. That being said, it's in a good place. A nice breather between the more experimental (for Guns N' Roses) "Locomotive" and full on grandiosity of "Estranged." It's a good little breather before plunging into the last part of the album. I'd compare it to a James Iha song on a Smashing Pumpkins record or a Rolling Stones song where Keith sings. It's just nice to have a reprieve. I suppose it's also a sneak preview of what we would get on The Spaghetti Incident. I've always gotten the vibe it was kind of thrown on simply for the mere fact that Duff was ousted from singing "Get in the Ring." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
