Your favourite Axl vocal moment either live or on an album ?

[IrishgunnerII]

I was thinking about this over the weekend and was thinking which was my favourite one I’ve heard live or on an album(with the obvious caveats between the two), but one that I kept coming back to was the outro of Coma. I played it several times just to make sure and yes there are many amazing notes he’s hit and screams in other songs which would give you goose bumps they are so amazing, but those under three minutes at the end of one my favourite GNR songs is magical both on a vocal level and also lyrically. I struggle to even repeat the lyrics at the pace he’s singing them without being out of breath.
 

Anyway what are some others that posters here like ?

for me is don t cry london 87 when axl does the "cryy now babyyyy" with an EPIC voice so powerfull

[dontdamnmeuyi2015]

After the song "Don't Damn me" Axl screams "that sucked" Precious

 I totally love this song. So much of Axl in those words. True back then and so true now.

[November_rain]

MTV Awards performance with GNR and Elton John playing November Rain together. And the Freddie Mercury tribute singing Bohemian Rhapsody. Amazing performances and memories!

[martinb33]

I always found his voice very powerful when he sang Civil War in Paris '92, especially in the line "and history hides the lies of our civil wars". That long war/s at the end is very impressive.

[AxlRoseCDII]

The high notes in TWAT. So much concentrated power, talent and raw energy. One of Axl’s best moments of all time.

[Tom-Ass]

I don't know but he sounds absolutely amazing on the entire acoustic side of LIES...

[LandOla]

Perfect crime, Indiana 1991

[Draguns]

I have to say the last 3 minutes of Rocket Queen on AFD. Also the MTV Ritz show where  RQ was played. So raw and filled with emotion. The MTV Music awards when Axl came out and sang Free Fallin. It felt like it was an Axl Rose song and not Tom Petty.  As far as being there in person, I would say hearing Highway to Hell at MSG. I always thought GNR should have covered this song. It was great to hear Axl sing it in 2016.

I really love his vocals on Salt of the Earth

Actually I like nearly all his vocals pre '94

[mystery]

Probably the ending of Estranged with how soaring his vocals sound. Close 2nd would be the stream of conciousness ending of Coma. 

[DanteStraviosky]

Live: Perfect Crime Indiana 91.

Studio: There was a time high notes.

[Bitchisback]

Pussy full of maggots

[Mindray11]

The end of Shoot To Thrill, Back in Black, Thunderstruck, Stuck Inside, end of Hard School, high notes on TWAT, that bridge or whatever it is from The General, beginning of Nightrain in Tokyo 2009, Madagascar, Better, Rocket Queen

[axlvai]

Out pf likes today... to excited for the Uyi Boxset

I cant chose one..... but always listen the song of RQ on Tokyo 92. The outro is for another planet.

Nightrain Tokyo 2009 Axl is on fire!

[Fanboy]

The end of Patience, live version of American music award in 89, and there is also You're Crazy from the late show, or Yesterday live version in Vegas 92...

[B5Redeye]

RQ is my favorite song so I’m biased to the ending.

Love the ending to Estranged too….especially live.

[Dean]

There Was A Time

[Tom2112]

There are a lot, but Stands outs are the "goodbye" at the end of this I love. The outro of RQ on live era. The final verse of Used to love her on live era. 

I could go on.

That was fun!  I do wonder what the American audience thought of it at the time. I can't imagine many of them would be aware of UK Subs

[Rayno]

The beginning of This I Love. Always have goosebumps when hearing it.

[waxl1974]

Used to love the ending of SCOM back around 92 when Axl would just stand there menacingly repeating Chiiihiiiiiiiiiiiiiillllllllllllllllllllllld about 4 times before holding the last one for about 20+ seconds

We Will Rock You at the Freddie Mercury tribute was outstanding

WTTJ RIR 2001 Intro was insane

KOHD from the Marquee 87 which was on the AFD release in 2017

TIL gets me everytime

[GoodOlJohnnyK]

1. The outro to Coma, easily.

2. The last "Here I aaa-ay-ay-am and you're a rocket queen."

3. The rapid fire delivery of the last verse of Garden of Eden.

4. The high pitched shriek during the intro to Scraped. It used to make me cringe. Now I just love it because it's absolutely bonkers and ridiculous and I love it for that.

[StrangerInThisTown]

The only time Axl actually whispered the intro of Estranged, RIR '91. Goosebumps everytime and my favourite live version of it.
