adamsapple 703 Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 Is there a GNR song that is generally held in high regards by many but you hate it? I for one despise November Rain. The only thing I like about this song is the coda and Axl playing piano himself at least for one song in concert, but those three hours it takes to get to the cake just don't work for me. I think it's way overrated and GNR has at least 20 songs that are better than this one. But I understand why many people love this song, it has a really good message. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Blackstar 8,736 Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 Better. I understand why it's considered a good song and it's the most popular CD song, but I never got to love it, personally. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It's pretty much the definition of overrated. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JimiRose 263 Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 To be overrated it has to be one that is at least popular to qualify right? So Bad apples, so fine etc wouldn't count as they're not rated highly by society and most GnR fans (obv not all) So I'd have to say Knocking on heavens door. Dylans is better. GnR circa 2006 played it better live. The album version and the current live version is so dull. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
