Izzymacbeth Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 I'd mentioned in the GN'R Anything thread about Paradise City inexplicably changing 'set me down' to 'spin me round' over the years. Another that gets on my tits is 'feeling like a space brain' is now 'speeding like a space train' or something to that effect. There are others that I can't remember at the min but will add when I do. Do any of you guys notice these, have any more examples, and lastly do they annoy you as much as they do me? Cheers 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GnR Chris Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 Hasn't it always been "speedin' like a space brain" the second time though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IncitingChaos Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 (edited) I thought Axl said "Hell it's so Easy" in Vegas in April last year but I might have been hearing things or maybe that's how that line goes even though I thought it was "well" 8:05 he says Hell and I always thought it was Well also there's so slight changes to Street of Dreams depending on what version Axl finishes with but only in 06 Edited June 2, 2017 by IncitingChaos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyler Drama Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 In Catcher in the Rye, he says "And then the voices slipped away" instead of "ran away" or whatever it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always thought it was 'feeling' and not 'speeding'. Could be wrong though. Anyone have the album sleeve handy? Was ot not 'set me down'? Again anyone have a sleeve handy?

TheSeeker Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 Axl hasn't sang "sometimes I need some time on my own" during November Rain since 1993 - I'm guessing whoever programmed the teleprompters fucked up and they never bothered to fix it 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Modano09 Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 Was there ever any reason given for the teleprompters? Because if I can remember the word to every GNR song, you'd think Axl could have. And he was usually the most sober one on stage back then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supposedly so that Axl could keep track of where he was in the song, not that he couldn't remember the lyrics. Although videos like the WTTG above would argue against that since he was forgetting at the beginning. He's not the only one to use them. I know Aerosmith has them for Steven Tyler (and did 15+ years ago). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It probably allowed Axl to be as good as he was with AC/DC Bc he was accustomed to using one and not having studied the lyrics very long it allowed him to be close to perfect in that department Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
