They are in six sements and part 2 or 3 start with Axl wearing his cop hat, back before Lies was released, and Axl mentions that there will be a song on Lies about the bus staion. Years later he tries to explain the song and the part about "hooray for tolerance!s and cops" or however it goes, and everyone thinks he is making it up and trying to cover his ass. But he clearly says, before Lies is out, that there will be a song about the bus station.Here are the interviews, really cool to watch. You get to see the REAL GNR talk about life as GNR and before GNR And also Axl talking about jumping into the pit to kick security's ass for fuckn with his fans !! Thanks Axl !! Who says he doensnt give a fuck about us? http://youtube.com/watch?v=wfAsnLBHLgA part 1http://youtube.com/watch?v=Yk8poZhZGhw aprt 2http://youtube.com/watch?v=fxGXHrJHGV4 part 3http://youtube.com/watch?v=MisTOaSAkbY part 4http://youtube.com/watch?v=CWdZqTd91Gg part 5http://youtube.com/watch?v=xmKYb3y2efY part 6Look at Axl teeth...before he had $$ Edited December 22, 2006 by gnfnr2006 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right, it's "trying to make ends meet".Btw, singing "radical's and racists" still don't make up for the stupidity of the line you for some reason chose as you favourite one. My family are imigrants in Sweden, and if you can't understand other cultures and sexualitites maybe you should change the lyrics to "ignorants and sexists make no sense to me" and look in the mirror while you sing it. It's pretty ironic when an american white boy sings it though, I'll give you that.Axl explained it as the mood of one day and that he was aiming it at some particular persons and maybe that was true. And yes, Slash called him on the lyrics but I guess in the end he bought Axl's explanation. Good song though, but those parts of it are not good lyrically, just ignorant.

He was pissed about the fact that people come to this country and refuse to learn how to speak english. He wasnt talking about all immigrants, but the ones who come here and wont learn english and run off the people who ARE citizens of this counrty. We have a big problem in this country with people coming here, living off of tax payers money, opening businesses and not paying their taxes, then selling the business to another family member to keep from paying taxes, and then they look down on us Americans. Its easier for an immigrant to come here and get money from the US govt to start a business, or get food stamps, then it is for someone who was born here and pays taxes here. Immigrants are WELCOME is this country, but they need to remmeber they are now in AMERICA and need to act accordingly. Unless you have been where he's been and seen what he's seen, you cannot understand where he is coming from. And please dont misunderstand me- im not saying its ok to talk shit about all the people he mentioned, but you have to have experienced what he is talking about.

You see the problem I'm talking about when you try to save the lyrics with such things? I'm saying that with those lyrics Axl drew a line between GROUPS OF PEOPLE and that's stupid if he was referring to specific PERSONS. It's funny how people still think it's OK to group people in the catagory of immigrants like they all are the same and come from the same place. Axl had no way of knowing citizenship of the ones you claim him singing about and was using general terms just like any other racist would have done. I just think there are better ways to talk about the issues he claims he was aiming at when he later on explains the lyrics.As for the part about "walking in his shoes" to understand him, maybe he should try walking in the minorities shoes before attacking them. What comes around goes around I guess.Maybe we are hijacking the thread with this discussion and for that I appologize.

However, I always took one in a million to be overblown. Like the main character in the song is "One in a Million", somehow special, and he can think all of these things and say all of these things, but not get in trouble because he's special. I always thought that Axl was poking fun at this mindset of people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gnfnr2006 Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 Axls words have offended alot of people. But thats one of the reasons why we love him. He says whats on his mind and doesnt give a fuck what anyone else thinks. Again, im not saying its ok to talk shit about GROUPS OF PEOPLE. And until you have been a minority, in a scary situation, and experienced what he is talking about , you just wont understand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
