cqleonardo Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 Never really liked the alt version, the UYI I version is pretty much one of the best songs ever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom2112 Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 It's not. If jungle had an alternate lyric version people on here would like that more. Don't Cry is perfect, people are just bored of the other because they heard it too often... well that's my guess. The alt one is fine, but I'd never listen to it over the original or want to hear it performed instead of the original. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweersa Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 I always thought it was stupid they included both versions on the UYI 1 and 2 combined CD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UseYourDemocracyIII Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 I am infatuated with the old version, it's really high on my list of top GnR songs (I find it relatable). What I wouldn't give for Don't Cry Extended Edition...add a second short Slash solo in there and you're good to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homefuck Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 Since I've always just listened to the music (including vocal melodies) and seldom the lyrics I'll go with the original version of don't cry. Better phonetics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ixtlan Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 I’ve always assumed the Alt lyrics were intended to assure the next big single Don’t Cry would be available to fans regardless of what album they purchased. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
