Has anyone read his stuff before and attempted to decode the meaning? Just curious, although some of his stuff is obvious https://www.flashlyrics.com/lyrics/izzy-stradlin I do it sometimes. I believe he always writes about something real. He doesn't make things up just to create a song, I think. Problem is to know whem he's talking about a situation that happened to himself or to someone else he knows. Then I get confused and give up on trying to decode the lyrics.

Fourteenbeers Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 (edited) If you witches, warlocks and fellow weirdos want to use like-buttons: go to the bottom left corner of this page (or any other page in this forum) -> click "Theme" -> change it from My GNRforum (Default) to "Default" Good news: you can use like-buttons (and few other new buttons too) and also see the likes on the posts. Bad news: the background turns white, really white and it's kind of irritating to the eyes (at least to my eyes) or maybe I should turn the lights on... that might help 16 hours ago, Tori72 said: I know. *sigh* So see you all in two years. Take care everyone! Bye bye Tori ! PS. somebody has been searching for Izzy since 1972. Hal searches everywhere for his pet lizard. https://www.amazon.com/Wheres-Izzy-Jeannette-McNeely/dp/0695403184 Edited August 30, 2017 by Fourteenbeers 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then I get confused and give up on trying to decode the lyrics. I felt the same way as I was reading them! Some were just odd, like , is this really a song?! But then there are ones like The Groper which are obvious. He's an enigma for sure...or is he actually so simple that it creates an illusion of being enigmatic?! 😂 Can never tell with that guy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't let them run you off. Is there any way to look up album sales? (not to compare them to AFD or UYI... That's just stupid ) but I'm kind of curious how the ju ju hounds did compared to Slash's snakepit and Duff's Believe in Me.

It's more like this threeunion doesn't deserve Izzy. But oh well, I'm sure you'll see yourself out.

I see I'm not going to get a serious response on my request. So I will continue to misinterpretate his lyrics. Anyway, this is Izzy's fault. He disappears and we don't have a real subject to discuss so it all ends up in fangirling (to the horror of men who use to check on this thread).

Tori72 Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 (edited) @kkferro72 there's this song when he sings about his niece. 2 hours ago, Majestic Beast said: Izzy is lazy to play even a gnr song,his solo career sucks and he spits the reunion cause of smaller offer axl did to him,he dont deserve to be into this reunion,too much ego and stupidness.

kkferro72 Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 "I don't mind" got pretty clear for me now. I still had to google the lemon expression since I'm not used to english slang and... wow! But I still don't get that vibe from "The Groper" (although the meaning of the word groper is clear on the dictionary). 10 minutes ago, Tori72 said: @kkferro72 there's this song when he sings about his niece.
