killuridols Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 (edited) I didn't know this song before Axl mentioned it. Must admit I wasn't much of an AC/DC fan, only knew the hits. So I looked for this song and found this video with lyrics: And now it all makes sense... Those lyrics, hah! Sound like something Axl would write for one of those women who drove him crazy. Who do you think these remind him of? Stephanie or Erin? Also lets post here videos of this song live. It's a special song and I think it deserves its own thread Edited May 22, 2016 by killuridols Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Killer riff and pretty much eveything else. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Bond Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 The chorus riff is quite literally the same as the Sweet Child outro! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GNRmello77 Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 it more sounds like a Kiss song than a gnr song to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
axlvai Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 (edited) I feel that song like a GNR song. It was my impression. I love it. First time that i heard... Edited May 22, 2016 by axlvai Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ratrace Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 My personal fav song from ACDC, although axl didn't do it any justice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DocArunas Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 As expected, when he got his tush of the chair he started cutting words short because of breath, and started using less of his rhaspy voice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killuridols Posted May 23, 2016 Author Share Posted May 23, 2016 I dont think he was out of breath on this song. But it does sound weak to my ears. Many parts of his vocals here are not powerful, can barely hear him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sosso Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 (edited) It don't think that he was out of breath. Some songs are not suitable to sing for him, that's it. Edited May 23, 2016 by Sosso Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcon Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 That was a bit of a let down. The vocal for sure, but also the song didn't sound quite right. It was missing the sleazy disco vibe early on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is one of those songs where Mutt Lange's voice is the most prominent one in the mix (along with Bon's doubling), so I'm not sure Malcolm and Cliff were up to the task. It's a bit more than grunting. One thing I'll give this live version is Slade's drumming. Perfect. Angus did a mean solo too - close enough to the studio take but enough of his usual live improvisation. Actually most of it sounded pretty good save for the intro accenting (but Angus can't even do the accents in FTATR right half the time so I'll forgive him). Axl was okay. Not the worst clean I've heard from him but the raspier parts sounded much better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nevergotochurch Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 AMAZING song... probably AC/DC's best. I was pleasantly surprised to hear Axl cite that one as his favorite and I've been hoping it would mean they'd dust it off for this tour. Axl's been killing it with the band, and I couldn't wait to hear him singing this one.... but honestly, his vocals were a bit disappointing!
