EccoTides Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 Awesome intro, awesome solo... but the rest needs alot of work - The lyrics / lyrical structure of the song is too chaotic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vicious Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 i think its a great song and is definetly going to be on CD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adnan Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 It's an okay song. But the problem with all the versions we have is that Axl's voice sounds like a mixture of a sheep being castrated and beheaded all at once with Dracula sucking blood out of Axl's penis.The one instance where the Mickey Mouse voice is really really there.

Tyler Drama Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 Does Anybody Really Know How "Rhiad" Or "Rhyad" From "Rh*ad And The Bedouins" Is Spelled? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vicious Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 i'm pretty sure its Rhiad, all my bootleg versions spell it that way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
W. Axl Kev Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 The song is called 'Rhyadh and the Bedouins'. Everything else is a fatal mistake with poisonous consequences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adnan Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 It only makes sense that the Rhiad in the title when put together with the Bedouins part means Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia.Probably that's the way it really should be spelt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

axl_rose_gnr Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 I always thought it was Rhiad myself like, but who knows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Birdie Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 rhiad aint bad, just needs some work, and better lyrics than "ohhh, ohhh ohhh, ohhh, ohhh oh oh oh oh"and maybe a good quality version wuld help.I liked the 'ohh' bits from the song. :(But to be honest, right now, I would kill for a decent version of it so we can actually get a fair listen at it, since the live versions on the song do what might be a good song little justice.

andy-robertson Posted April 22, 2006 Share Posted April 22, 2006 (edited) this is such a non topic i really dont know why i bothered posting in it.... well i guess 13 pints of guinness and 1 more post on my count might explain it i suppose.who really gives a shit how it's spelt, either you like a song or you dont. what the hell would have happened 30 years ago? [<<<< i mean without the internet to discuss these things] would you have thought - 'well, that song sounds ok, but i wonder how it's spelt? if it's with a [DELETE AS APPLICABLE= Y, I, H, however the fuck you want to spell it] then that's ok, but any way else... oooh, I'm not too sure about that......come on!!! a song is a song. either it strikes a chord (no pun intended) or it doesn't, does it really matter how you spell a word in its title?
