Chewbacca 348 Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 It's just Axl suing himself. Link to post Share on other sites
IncitingChaos 5,798 Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 It's probably Axl. Now he can sue Slash. It's his fault if the chord progression is the same. Axl just wrote the lyrics. Link to post Share on other sites

I know both songs well, and I don't hear any similarities. They share some chords,but in a different progression. Comparing the melodies doesn't fit either. I'm sorry, but I just don't get it.

Where do you hear a similarity?Someone mentioned it in a previous thread. The bass line sounds similar to SCOM's main riff. It's just a point that several songs have similarities to other songs made before it. Link to post Share on other sites
