brock landers Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 (edited) the only conclusion i can come to is that his voice was shot in 2002Check this out for the difference Then this is 1992, same song, TOTALLY different vocal rangehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OfekOfvOlhEin fact watching the 2002 version, i have no clue what the fuck those guys are doing LOLthe 2006 version, while not that great of quality, has MUCH more of the 1992 Axlhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=psa4Yxn37Coso one has to wonder what happened between 2002 and 2006!

FinckFortus Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 Axl's voice:1988-1991 > 2006 > 1992-1993 > 2001-2002Axl's voice was screwed for most of the illusions tour, especially in Tokyo. He was obviously at his best in 1988-1991 though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allen8R Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 It's simple. In 02 he was fat and out of shape and he just wasn't fit enough to sing and yell and rack up his average 50 miles on stage per show. So in 02 he sounded winded.A8R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ions Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 (edited) It's hard to sing like he does - period. His voice may be inconsistent, but what he represents goes much further than technical excellence with regard to singing. I've said it before. The like-minded know what I mean. "Our soul hero in his soul mobile." An instantiation of the archetypal hero. And he's going to succeed.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hero_with_a_Thousand_Faces Edited October 26, 2006 by Ions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ions Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 His voice has NEVER been consistent except for when he was young, playing clubs, and had not done extensive touring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leisure Rules Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 Personally my favorite show is Paris 92 . I think its the peak pf Axl's voice which afterwards starts to decline slowly. Its natural because of the big 3 year world tour. Right now Axl is back and rocking. I've been to the europe shows but from what I've seen in youtube the american shows are even better regarding his voice. Axl is back and we'll see him perform great shows. His voice is really cool right now and its most probable to get even better..Now we know better and feel better - Chinese Democracy is comingPEACE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bax Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 He blew out his voice during the 1st Hammerstein show and Sebastian Bach recommended a docter and vocal coach, so I assume the instructions he received allows him to sing much better than he did in 2002.

Allen8R Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 (edited) This is sweet child from 1992. There is no aruguing that it is the worst axl ever sounded, even worse than 01/02.u can't put 86-90 in the same category as 91-93.A8R Edited October 26, 2006 by allen8r Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

damagedgoods Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 '86-'93 > '06 > '01-'02Kannon.i agree. the rasp is what axl's about. when i heard the vma's 02 i thought he sounded like a school girl. it's obvious he doesn't want to or can't sing like that anymore. it probably hurts. to me his voice in tokyo in the "archetypal" axl voice.and if your going to compare rq's you have to use the second half here is invasion 06:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gLm8niwgMvQand my fave rq second half is tokyo 92, the way he sings "paaaaaaiiiiiiiin" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ions Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 His voice has been worse/better at times, but come the fuck on! It has never been consistent. Ever. This argument is futile in my opinion. He still rocks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr.drummin Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 2006>2002>1991 IMO. 2002 musically is much better than 1992, but Axl's voice isn't. 2006 is great and every performance in this era is at it's best.(RQ from Novarock '06 is much better).
