dgnr Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 (edited) So following @thedemocracyrose idea of rating the top 5 concerts, why not rate the top 5 songs? 1- Back in Black(the 'sings it like he means it' says it all) 2- Thunderstruck(those screams, that rasp ) 3-For Those About to Rock(his voice just fits this song like a glove) 4- Rock or Bust(he gives a whole new life to this song. Everyday I find myself singing it) 5-Hells Bells(because it's inhumane. He has to be a god to pull this of so perfectly) Edited June 17, 2016 by dgnr 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeez Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 Hard to choose five... To me he was a breath of fresh air to most of the songs. But these are the five songs that came to mind first. 1. If you want blood 2. For those about to rock 3. Hells bells 4. Hell aint a bad place to be 5. Shot down in flames Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

night prowler Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 (edited) For me this would be like the classic comment of choosing between your children ... (even though i only have one, but ) .... I think he did good on all eventually... some took a bit longer to get the groove and rythm and tempo ... I felt that you could tell he perhaps not used to sing that "slow" .. he more agressive and forward pushing on his own material ... (exept ballands... yes of course) ... so imo he had a little problem with BIB and and FTATR and a few other in the beginning but that got better quickly ,,,and after that i think he did all realy good... Then it just comes down to favourites... and again i could pick all easily... but i have said and i say again.. High Voltage ,,, it looked like they had a blast playing that ... and that Axl realy liked that to ... and...Hell Aint A Bad Place To Be... The thing he did good excelent ....was to get that phrasing and accentuating right on both how Bon sings and how Brian sings ... that impressed me... and then he put his vioce and energy and little bits and pieces of his style on it to .... im absolutely sure no one else would have come close.... at the end it was... just like he never done nothing else.... I thought he was awesome on Givin The Dog Abone .. to ... ALL OF THEM ... Edited June 17, 2016 by night prowler 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Archer Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 Can't pick really. I love em all. My favorites keep changing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oaka Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 1. You Shook Me All Night Long 2. Hells Bells 3. Back In Black 4. For Those About To Rock 5. High Voltage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerage5 Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 Tough choice - the only songs I don't really think suit Axl's voice are TNT and Touch Too Much (And in defense of that one, it may get better if they do it more). If I had to pick 5 though... 1. Shoot To Thrill 2. Thunderstruck 3. Given The Dog A Bone 4. Rock Or Bust 5. Shot Down In Flames Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibbo Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 (edited) 1. Rock Or Bust 2. Back in Black 3. Thunderstruck 3. Given The Dog A Bone 5. High Voltage All great apart from TNT and Touch Too Much still ok Edited June 17, 2016 by Gibbo 27 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Archer Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 Great to see all the love for 'Given the dog a bone'. Axl slaughters that one. Also, I'm pleasantly surprised to see the appreciation for Sin City. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IncitingChaos Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 i see some got a bad first impression of touch too much but I thought Axl was exceptional on it in Denmark...he really just said screw it I'm going to sing this like Axl not Bon. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never really was that keen on it until someone was talking to me about the lyrics. i'm a lyrics person thoughI also love a good beat but when I found out what the song was about I really started liking it.. a LOT! it would have made my top 10 if that was the choice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IncitingChaos Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 (edited) and Dirty Deeds really caught on I think he sounds great here too...it just seems like a fun song to sing Edited June 17, 2016 by IncitingChaos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shot Down In Flames TTM was pretty damn good (speaking mostly of Axl, the backing vocals are horrid) in Aarhaus. Way better than Prague.

Bumblefeet Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 1. Thunderstruck 2. Sin City 3. Rock n’ Roll Damnation 4. If you want Blood You Got it 5. Givin the Dog a Bone I'd still like to hear more Chris Slade tracks, Big Gun ofcourse, but some more Razor's Edge material like "Fire your Guns" or "Rock your heart out".
