username Posted September 9, 2004 Share Posted September 9, 2004 Who has heard this version? I have...and I think it is about the best version I have ever heard of this song. The GnR version at the Mercury Tribute is VERY close....but I think this one is slightly better.Actually...it sounds terrible. I saw it on video. At the start you see Bob, or what's left of him. Completely broken down by drugs and God only knows what, skinny has hell, as pale as an a4 paper, doesn't manage to hit one single note right.....and it just gives you goosebumps all over! It's in some way very fitting for the song. This guy, broken down, in a way more dead then alive, and then singing Knocking On Heavens Door. I LOVE this version!If you haven't heard it.... right click, save as (I hope this link works) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellyprice06 Posted September 9, 2004 Share Posted September 9, 2004 I don't like this version, and it's mostly because my brother played it ten times in one night so he could learn the harmonica part. Bob's voice is annoying, but since he's the writer of the song, and GN'R did a kick ass version of it, then I have to give him a lot of credit.
