dalsh327 Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 (edited) I wonder if "Down By The Ocean" wound up being something Izzy used for himself."Berlin" or "Oklahoma". Interesting titles, because Berlin could mean something like the Cold War, or something that reminded Axl of Lou Reed's "Berlin", most depressing album ever made.Skwerl said there were 10 songs, there's 10 songs mentioned above, so unless he says otherwise, these are prob. the songs floating around.

Stro Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 The Big Daddy SCOM is awful until the solo. Fuck. Axl sounds like he forgot to stop singing like Madagascar, the editing is bad, the mixing is weird. If that's what the rest of AFD 99 sounded like, I'm glad it wasn't released. The solo, drums, and breakdown is pretty boss, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alfa75 Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Wow, the 99 SCOM really kills the song. Finck's overly electronic sounding guitar and Axl's weak vocals pale when compared to the AFD version.Also pretty weak of Axl to have the first part be a live version instead of the far superior studio version. How to make something not so good sound better? Precede by something worse.Maybe it's better GnR broke up in the 90s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyler Drama Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 The first half is a live version from 1992 and the second half is the 1999 studio version. Random, I know.

cbgnr Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 People complaining about the raspy vocals on the above Sweet Child is funny when day after day all you read is rasp rasp rasp,well there you are.If you check out the performances from 2010 that is pretty much how he was singing the song live.

jman2000 Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 what about this ===> http://gunsnroses.co...te-lyrics/?wap2Is it fake??Yep. Fake. If you listen to the Checkmate clip I posted he says at the end, "all in good-". The lyrics don't have this in them so it is fake. If one is fake, most likely so is the other. Those lyrics for The General sound really stupid and don't think it's something Axl would write. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TiedHands Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 That 'Estranged' clip has been floating around for years and years.
