Sixes Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 Human BeingThat songs sacreligious!On topic:Since I Don't Have YouJumpin Jack FlashWhole Lotta RosieThats about it.as are Since I Don't Have You and Jumpin Jack Flash!True but they're pretty straightforward and lend themselves to Gunses abilities whereas the whole quality of Human Being by The Dolls was it had their sort of runaway freight trains, barely-held-together-by-a-string-but-just-making-it kinda quality to it that is absolutely deadened by the polish and sheen of TSI. I reckon anyway I much much prefer the Dolls version...hell I prefer the Dolls over anything by GNR and the Dolls Human Being had their devil may care attitude firmly entrenched with a casual looseness that gave you a feeling that they sort of, just might, fuck the whole thing up...but they held it together...The GNR version is an Axl screechfest, super duper polished and has no "feel". But it is a fun song nonetheless and less pretentious than anything else on TSI. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carburetta Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 So many. Couldn't really pick one. One of the studio ones probably, from TSI. Human Being and Ain't it fun being particularly bad ass. Love most of them. Don't care much for The Seeker it has to be said, or Sailing, Guns should not be covering Rod Stewart.

EvH Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 It's alright.This, especially because it's the only instance where GNR (or Axl's) renditions actually bettered the original. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brunzopolis Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 Hair of the DogHuman BeingKOHDAll three, to me, are much better songs than the originals. Jumpin' Jack Flash to me, is one of the greatest songs of all time. It's perfection. It seems unlikely that it could ever be improved upon. GNR's interpretation of it is very poor imo.

Nulla Lex Ink. Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 The cover of Todd Rundgren's "Dust in the Wind." I actually love it so much that if they were to make a new album and included it as an actual track, I'd be okay with it. With anything else I'd either despise it, or say "Alright, it's nice, but why take up valuable real estate with a cover?" With that I'd say "Alright, cool. Glad they did that."
