Izzy Stradlin - Sweet Caress

[Newfoundlander1986]

As much as I LOVE this song, I get chills thinking of how amazing it would be if Axl were on vocals and this were a GNR song.

[cmc1438]

@DrMisterAleksa amen

[joe72793]

Izzy Stradlin, the master mind behind guns and roses. fuckin genius

[1984NIGHTRAIN]

izzy rules

[dcklng06]

Beautiful song

[superlenny07]

IZZY, DUFF, SLASH IS GNR...AXL, MATT, DIZZY IS MHHHH, IS...IS..MHHHH ...

[izzystevee]

izzy rocks

[TheRoitto]

@NicoEmma1 I agree. Speeding up the tempo by just a bit, adding Axl on vocals, Steven on drums and plugging the guitar to a cranked Marshall you get a GN'R song.

Izzy is just so fucking awesome.

[nickj1706]

izzy rocks!! he's such a good musician!

[Lunaa1611]

G'n'R are not and will never be shit stop saying that!

[hammer95618]

Great songwriter, very overlooked and underrated...........

[alijav091]

@hammer95618 thats because he wants it like that, he dosnt do promotion or marketing for his music..

[josefine84swe]

I love this song with every little piece of my heart!

[MrKacper143]

the world was never the same after old GNR with Izzy Slash Duff & Axl

[SweetGunsOMine96]

How I love Izzy's voice! ♥

[TWHueyGuitar]

This is an awesome song, that deserves to be huge.

[suzenceto]

izzy was the spirit of guns n roses

[MyMalusi]

MADE IN GUNS N ROSES

[arganion]

IZZY AND AXL FOR ME IS THE SAME LENNON N' PAUL, JAMES AND LARS AND OTHER FUCKING PARTNERS

[glamrockcowgirl]

@arganion u forget the most important jagger and richards!

[arganion]

@glamrockcowgirl wow, of course, EXACTLY they're like Jagger and richards, and of course that you know, Izzy used to get inspired in Keith, even at his dressing!

[glamrockcowgirl]

@arganion Yeah. Plus Axl has said many times that he was very influenced by Jagger's writing, and most importantly his stage presense:)

[PetiSluff]

i adore his voice, it's sooo beautiful <3

[DrMisterAleksa]

everyone sad that guns n roses are shit coz slash is out. but the truth is that they are shit coz izzy is out

[stradlin62]

@DrMisterAleksa let's put Duff in it too. But in the end Slash is fuckin' amazing..

[luuizcn]

@DrMisterAleksa they are shit cuz both is out, that's what i think.

[glamrockcowgirl]

@DrMisterAleksa ya. they were playin shit far before slash was out.

[Lunaa1611]

@DrMisterAleksa

i respect izzy but let's be honest slash is legen- wait for it -dary :D

[frabs91]

@Lunaa1611 izzy wrote the slash's solos :P..and he is a better player...but he isn't curly and so....

[aoifeluvzk]

Izzy's still sexy....This song is gorgeous love u izzy x x x

[luukrawks]

I love Izzy´s style of music. Nuff said.

[glamrockcowgirl]

see this man rite here is the reason gnr got as big as they did without izzy they r nothing

[alekszanver]

he look like al pacino from the godfatther 0_o

[Rochellka]

Izzy - the brain and soul of Guns n Roses !

[798Marcos]

im live in brazil man

and i fuckinhg love izzy,guns and etc

we are whithout good music around here

[kmsampare]

Izzy must have had some sweet parents!

[bastardson73]

this song is no masterpiece; the drumming is offtime in parts, the vocals are so-so, the song needs work basically

[114underground]

@bastardson73 and you need to wash your ears basically

[bastardson73]

@114underground no its an objective statement; the drumming is offtime at least twice, and the vocals are somewhat dull in in terms of production; i listened to it thru studio monitors. i didnt imply it was a shit song or anything like that, just that it seems to have been rushed in the recording process. its a fact that izzy didnt like to do multiple takes when he was in gnr and this seems to be the case still... maybe its a demo, i dont kno... but listen to it again closely ok

[114underground]

@114underground All you said is sure right but you know I've heard things like Chinese democracy and others with all it's fucking production and perfectionism and Izzy's simple demo recordings still wins for me just because of the fucking music feeling ok cheers

[rpont953]

@114underground I couldn't have said it better. Right on

[cotchford1969]

Everything Izzy does turns to gold!

[tpda1990]

Izzy fuckin' Stradlin the heart and soul of Guns N' fuckin' Roses

[rafael101222]

Izzy Forever, Sou BRAZILeiro ii acho você muito foda mano' sz

[MarsMetaller96]

*___* Sweet caress <3

[ardee1978]

Noe that's what music is FUCK YEAH IZZY!!!!!

[TheBluenocturne]

*.* What a beautiful voice! *_*

[sexjunglevillavo]

exelente es uno de los compositores mas grandes de la historia el era el 40 porciento de guns n roses aunque no lo crean el compuso mas de la mitad de las canciones :)

[NYCSubwayFreak]

Such a beautiful song..Izzy f'n rules, the best...Too bad people don't know real music...Izzy, your the best! My favorite gunner.!

[kblp]

Izzy alone composes better Music that Velvet Revolver and NEW GNR. Izzy is just amazing, this song has so much emotions, he is an amazing composer. the NEW GNR is a JOKE, Just a band by axl and his hired retards, It would be great to see Axl,Slash, Izzy, Duff and Steven Together. They created the Magic of Guns N Roses.

[Luxmaxnike]

@kblp I wouldn't say better music tha vr, because he acctually wrote stuff for VR and "Contraband" would be the best album of the deacade if Weiland hadn't fuck it up.

[Appellusiomocracy89]

This song should be huge.

[glamrockcowgirl]

IZZY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Souledzeal]

ＳＨＵＴ　ＵＰ　ＡＮＤ　ＥＮＪＯＹ！

[vesidude]

This is one of his best.

[glamrockcowgirl]

i love izzy i look up to him so much!!!! when u look @it hes actually a much better guitarist than slash dont git me wrong love slash!!! but izzy so underrated!!!!!!

[798Marcos]

aaaaa, fuckin good song

100000 time better than new gnr or velvet

[MrBluntsworth420]

I really like this, but it just can't compare to Chinese Democracy..if given a fair chance, "Chinese Democracy" is a fantastic record.

[bkbniteowl]

Doesn't anyone remember Izzy and the JuJu hounds?

[lookjpa]

Izzy is a fuckin' good singer, doesnt surprise he made some gnr's songs.

He with Slash, and he with axl rose are just perfetcs. But i dont like Axl rose , slash and izzy. I like axl rose and slash =D. Duff are good too.

[TheTKDkidd]

great song , izzy is a great guitar player but he sings fuckin' good to.

[sdpf98]

100 times better than new gnr but not better than slash vr and snakepit

[798Marcos]

thats true, izzy its 1000000 better than new gnr or valvet

and he sings very much, a didnt now that

realy,,he have a great voice.

[kblp]

Izzy alone is 10000 times better than the "NEW GUNS N ROSES" and "Velvet Revolver"

[plantguy666]

ALL the talent in gnr was behind rhythm guitar and we didn't know it.

[LeoricConDaga]

@plantguy666 i figured it out long ago D:

[Panathinaikos1996]

It's so IZZY...!!!

[ANAVOLXTREME]

IZZY IS THE SHIT!!!!!

[0wn3d17]

@ANAVOLXTREME FU : ) waiting for your CD

[ANAVOLXTREME]

@ANAVOLXTREME F ME !? FU U!!!!!!!!!!!! COMMENT SAY'S IZZY IS THE SHIT NOT IS SHIT DICK HEAD......

[GUNSizzyROSES]

Izzy my favourite artist!!!!

[comesqueezetheworld]

[stutaggart]

[STimo95]

@stutaggart

[herowithpsp]

Happy belated birthday Izzy!!!

[FlavyG]

Today is Izzy's birthday! So Happy B-Day! :D

[HeeyJuuude]

I can't stop to listen this song <3

[SweetGunsOMine96]

Izzy's voice is beautiful *.*

[qotsadet]

great song. this doesn't make the radio, yet non-talented "bands" whining is considered "new rock", and is on the radio. I don't get it. That is why I stopped listening to the radio. I am not old, I just have good taste in music.

[CrazyMangoGuitar]

@qotsadet yes!! someone understands!!

[jimmybec]

Awesome musician!

[MaxDaymond]

who remember "Where's IZZY "sign from don't cry ?

[purplesnowleopard]

@MaxDaymond i do i do lol

[nightofear]

@MaxDaymond Did you find him? Just teasing

[MegaOffender]

@MaxDaymond HERE`S IZZY

[vesidude]

@MaxDaymond Yes, Im wondering where he is.

[velebr3]

@MaxDaymond That is so epic, who wouldnt remember? :D

[GunsNRoseses]

@MaxDaymond

me :(

[luukrawks]

@MaxDaymond Who doesn´t? Axl was an ass.

[robolew666]

I prefer Slash's music, Prefer the bands he's in and prefer his style... But can't help feel thinking he's selling out. Come on, Fergy? Kidrock? At least Izzy is playing stuff he loves

[danee9339]

this track is way too short!!! i would listen to this for 10 minutes

[superlenny07]

holly shit, izzy is a mother fucker music man!!!!! why axl, why did u let him go in the best years and albums?

[bernardopaiva94]

@RobbyBobbins I think it is on the criteria of everyone. All of Slash and Izzy's music is very good. One person like more one, other likes the other way around, but the music is good in both sides.

[RoteFedern]

Why shouldn't you care about touring? Is there any better way to share music with people than playing infront of a life audience? why is slash's music not as valuable as Izzy's? that's stupid.

[MichaelJordanable]

@RoteFedern

Izzy was writin way more songs than slash or axl... thats fact

[JulietaStradlin]

the best song ♥

[AnipoptoSSS]

the coolest guy ever...

[elarabelardani2]

better of best of guns n roses there is not doubt

[MrTephama]

@roberjr618 Izzy is the better guitarist, the best rhythm guitarist in the world. Slash is defenately not the best lead guitarist.. ''opinion''

[missheidee]

wow!!!!! great song! he still has that something!

[Arsen828]

he is sth like dylan

[stradlin62]

@nimfadora111 yeah.. :_ |

[stradlin62]

missing you so much!! Won't you plz come back together with Axl, Slash and Duff. Why did you leave GN'R back in the days, Izzy? Keep on rockin' fellow!!

[bernardopaiva94]

@NicoEmma1 In fact, after Izzy left, Guns N Roses would never be the same. They never wrote any more songs after his exit. Guns N Roses will always be the Appetite for Destruction line-up, their music, appearence and attitude were something that, until today, was never reached musically.

[YourFat3e]

@bernardopaiva94 mmm i think Guns N Roses will always be the Use your illusion line up with matt and dizzy

[bernardopaiva94]

@YourFat3e No, Guns N' Roses is the classic Appetite for Destrction line-up.

[YourFat3e]

@bernardopaiva94 then use your illusion line up is better

[raffysparrow]

Tá ligado, ele e o Axl são tipo o Arnaldo Antunes e o Nando Reis nos Titãs

[Velcherr]

Izzy's awesome solo records and the shitty ones by Axl and Slash make me sad that Guns N' Roses never stayed the way it was born...

At least we still have Izzy =)

[RoteFedern]

@Velcherr speak for yourself. slash's solo stuff is great.

[RoteFedern]

@RoteFedern wow....brilliant. did you came up with that yourself?!

[RoteFedern]

@Luxmaxnike gosh, youtube is full of retarted people. get a life.

[Khalev1979]

you know.. its izzy and axl together...writing and singing which makes the best songs...really makes me cry from hapinness when i hear it toghether, and dont forget slash when its needed! =p

[donnamatch225]

What kind of dumbs don't like this?

[cherrysunbrust]

damn I've never listen to Izzy Stradlin's solo Music. Its Amazing! I love his Voice :D

So sad that Guns doesn't do music do anymore. But also the solo music of slash,duff,Izzy and Matt are good as well! :)

[Patricop]

@cherrysunbrust yes, axl killed the guns n roses, and it will never be the same.

[cherrysunbrust]

@Patricop

you're right! it will never be the same...

[77guns19]

I'd shit my pants if I got to meet Izzy. what a fuckin cool dude. Where's IzzY?? love ya brother,if ya ever read this!!!

[Lukith66]

sounds alot like dire straits, but izzy is the best !

[mbolnimation]

this is totally beautiful song. once I heard it, i gave it five stars with no doubt in my iTunes

[CottonDooda]

I like this song. :D Izzy is such a cool person, he's been in the making of GnR since the beginning and he was partly responsible for Axl coming to Hollywood. He's almost like the heart of GnR. He's seems so chill and doesn't have a huge ego with fame and money...I mean he quit GnR when they were hitting it big. Izzy's one of a kind. He seems to be doing good with his solo stuff. Good for him!

[jolteon43]

@CottonDooda he sure look a very kind person

he was behind about 20-30% of the lyrics of guns n roses

[BenefitionToDrumminn]

when i heared this song i started to cry :D

cuz i was so happy, he is my biggest idol :D,manwho brought up gnr to the top,and got out cuz he wanted peace, luv him :D

[traktor5657]

izzy just izzy......

[emascarri]

I like this, but it sounds a little too much like "human wheels" by Mellencamp.

[AliceNesti]

izzy's songs are so catching *-*

[Styk0s]

@AliceNesti catchy

[Nine20Eight]

Cool song.



[bernardopaiva94]

Let's clear something. Considering Axl, Slash and Izzy's work, I gotta say that Izzy's work is the most valuable. He doesn't care about selling or even touring. He just want to play his music. He lives his life without concerns and that makes his music great and , in my opinion, better than Axl's music and as good or even better than Slash's.

[sueellen360]

@bernardopaiva94 and more original, Slash is like Joe Perry all over the place O_o

[bernardopaiva94]

@sueellen360 Not so dramatic like that. Better are the two combined, Izzy and Slash.

[sueellen360]

@bernardopaiva94 oh yeah but don't take it in the wrong way, i like slash but really dude...

[bernardopaiva94]

@sueellen360 Yes, you think Slash is Joe's copy.. In some thinks yes, because Joe was a huge influence on Slash. Like Jimmy Page was on Perry.

[sueellen360]

@bernardopaiva94 but actually Perry is more influenced by Jeff Beck

[bernardopaiva94]

@sueellen360 And Slash always say Jeff is his biggest ''guitar speaking'' influence.

[sueellen360]

@bernardopaiva94 Slash started to play because of Joe, he said Joe is his guitar hero (well, we can guess just looking at them xD)

[bernardopaiva94]

@sueellen360 Joe's 70's style is terrific, like Slash's style.

[sueellen360]

@bernardopaiva94 is this slash at 7:30? /watch?v=1FKk9C0xNmU

[davidmaxpower]

@sueellen360 no tattoes no slash

[sueellen360]

@davidmaxpower it was a joke, geez!

[simplyrockblog]

@bernardopaiva94 couldn't have said it better myself!!! Izzy was the true reason why GNR ever became what it became!

[onepinkrose]

@simplyrockblog Wouldn't have got anywhere without Axl's lyrics. Just type in 'Duff and Slash interview 88' and it's the first vid that comes up, and on it Slash clearly states that Axl writes their lyrics. 

[chinmullet420]

@onepinkrose: and watch or read any interview with axl and HE"LL say izzy did just as much of the lyrics as hhe did.

[floghit]

@bernardopaiva94 aye but he's abit screwed in the head, gnr made him insanley delicate

[roberjr618]

this is an amazing song...wish he would still work with slash more.



[Motorhed95]

@roberjr618 Slash would drag him down. I mean look at what Izzy has achieved; an excellent solo career. Axl has done amazingly with GNewR, and what has slash done? Created some lousy albums that people only bought because of the name. I mean Slash has even had to resort to using other famous names on his albums. Axl and Izzy have done the best.

[MrMijuskovic]

@Motorhed95 Dude you are so retarded,you dont know what the fuck are you talking about...

[Motorhed95]

@MrMijuskovic I clearly do. Even from the way I wrote a real comment and all you could do is insult me shows your obvious arrogance and ignorance.

[stradlin62]

@Motorhed95 GNewR ah ah ah ah

[roberjr618]

@Motorhed95 dude slash was named the best guitarist in the world behind jimi hendrix for the past five years....the only reason ppl are buying the new gnr shit is cuz its got axl and he does have one hell of a voice. izzy is good but not close to as good as slash could be with his damn feet. get ur facts strait buddy.

[Motorhed95]

@roberjr618 Best guitarist or not, his albums are doing worse than Izzy's.

[roberjr618]

@Motorhed95 how are they doing worse???????? he just keeps selling and selling he doesnt even need to put out records people are still gonna buy his old stuff. slash is a legend. legends never die. they just get bigger and better. i dont have a oproblem with u man. i understand this is your opinion but im sorry to say that more ppl will back me up with what im saying than what ur saying.

[Motorhed95]

@roberjr618 I have nothing against you either but think of it this way;

It's not HIS old stuff, it's Guns N Roses. A band is a single unit.

Secondly [for example] Chinese Democracy peaked at No. 1 pretty much everywhere. Slash's album peaked at 88 if I remember correctly. He once was a legend, and I'm not disputing the fact that he's an AMAZING guitarist, but nobody really goes to a record shop with an intention to buy his stuff. They see it and pick it up. He's nothing without GNR.

Opinions

[moe17moe]

@Motorhed95 . mmm yeah and GnR is nothing without Slash. Chinese democracy sold because of the name GnR. It's a not bad RnR record but not better than Slash's velvet revolver.Izzy is the shit in all of this. don't even care to sell records, just puts em online for download. and plays when he wants to in a pub having fun. that's what it's all about anyway.His music I play the most.

[Motorhed95]

@moe17moe But that's like the first thing I said; Izzy is the coolest out of all of them. He didn't care about suing band mates, he just wanted to play music. Why do you think I'm watching this video? =)

[moe17moe]

@Motorhed95 , yeah I actually agree on that. I was more commenting on the slash is nothing without GnR. I think that GnR is nothing without Slash ( or Izzy!) and the album was nr.1 ? here in Holland nowadays you have to sell a couple 1000 and you are nr.1. Chinese democracy was average at most.Ha but you are right when you said"opinions" Each YT user has one :)

[gunsnroses1ful]

@Motorhed95 according to billboard top 100 slash's album peaked at number 1 and it's 40 right now with 16 weeks on it

[gunsnroses1ful]

@Motorhed95 according to billboard top 100 slash's album peaked at number 1 and it's 40 right now with 16 weeks on it

[GunsNRoses7272]

izzy is best :)

[stradlin62]

@GunsNRoses7272 Yeah, indeed I dare took his name..

[pinkpanther446]

@AstalaMisti Non of them were innocent but it is not Axl's fault for the line up we once knew moved on.
