I really like "Our House", by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young. But I guess it would be thread drift to mention it here.

I always liked the one where at the end Axl shrieks, "SO YOU CAN SUCK ME", and then, spoken, "TAKE THAT ONE TO HEART"

Their punk rock cover album had 4 or 5 great songs. I think their Dead Boys cover was the best of the bunch.

"What's so civil about war anyway?"
"Some men you just can't reach. So you get what we have here. And that's the way he wants it. SO he gets it!"

No doubt Mike. Pretty flimsy when compared to AC/DC.

I like both:
'Sweet child of mine'
'Welcome to the Jungle'
I never really did like Axel's voice or delivery all that much, but I figure all stars, if you cut them loose to solo have something to show. For example a country star might get up at an awards ceremony and play three cowboy chords while a 6 piece band does the work for them. Yet if they had to do it themselves they most likely would have a lot more to show than three simple cowboy chords.
Same with Axel.
I don't know where, when or how...
One time I heard a recording of Axel doing a semi classical piece.
No weird inflection or 'pop' trills and thrills, just straight up melody.
I was blown away, man can that guy sing. That made me realize that guy could prolly screech and gyrate apoplectic enough to scare even Joe Cocker, or lay down a sweet soulful melody to rival even 'JT'

SS not to punt your adoration of GnR but....
They did a concert w/ Metallica in Canada and Metallica had an accident with a flash pot. Burned the Heck out of Mettalica frontman ( Hospitalized). Gnr could have saved the day and played a solid set but Asshole Rose didn't feel like it. They did 2 songs and stopped playing, a riot brokeout many people were seriously injured all because GnR couldn't step up to the plate. If Mike O says they can't work and I say they are Punters... That about covers it.
Sometimes you have freinds that will step up and cover your back and then theres the rest.. GnR is the rest. They have a few good songs but so does Barbara S and that Canouk Chichk C.D.
