lukigol Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Was it 2012? Right now this song should be kick off from the setlist cos it is so fuckin weak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lies They Tell Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 The fact that he sang it without rasp already in 2002 gives hope that some day we might see some raspy You Could Be Mine's again. But it's unlikely. In 2010 YCBM was pretty awesome, but in 2011 the rasp was gone. It's one of the best GNR songs though, so it's unlikely that it'll be dropped from the setlist. But I do agree that it's one of the weakest sounding songs currently. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AxlRoseCDII Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 (edited) He's been having weak performances of the song for years, 2011 is where the falsetto crap started. I agree that Axl needs to either rework the song or just drop it entirely, as the Mickey voice flat out doesn't work on this song. It's a song that's supposed to be badass and is a heavy rock track, and his Mickey voice makes it sound like a grandma got drunk on a karaoke night.

If Axl can sing If You Want Blood he can sing this right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The falsetto shit started in 2002, it sounds no different than 2011, he went back to it again 9 years later after dropping it in 2006-2010 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fanfzero Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 I think he did one raspy performance in 2011 or 2012, like he did with Rocket Queen in Philly 2012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soon Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Wish he'd at least use rasp for the "oh" and "ha's" in the verses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
