  • Amooo!

    

  • I like your clips!

  • i remember watching this for the first time and getting sooo fucking excited at that halfway mark where axl kicks in to overdrive, and thinkin "heee's baaaaack" terribly disappointed when mickey mouse came back tho

  • Boa d+

  • great song

  • IRS is a real awesome song in the record and the play it very good in the concert but i don't feel any vibes coming, do you guys it feels like it can't fill the stage..... at least to me... and that's just bad because axl is awesome up there.....

  • was Buckethead on stage? or was he not even in this concert :/

  • @22son24 Bucket left in 2004. :( He was my favorite GN'R lead guitarist (alongside Slash). I think this video's from 2006, so it's gotta be Finck, Bumble and Fortus.

  • @averagenikki haha thanks man

  • Axl at his best!

  • Best on Chinese Democracy hands down. One of the best by Guns ever. \m/

  • Holy shit - where the fuck is the 'Epic' button?!

  • pretty good still :)

  • 2011. ten years of chidem tour. its time to release the new album. hope they acctually do it in 2011

  • @Luxmaxnike Well, their playing Rock N' Rio this year, and they said on twitter "we have some music laying around." I think were getting new song's at Rio. As for a new album, DJ Ashba said he workiig on new song's with Axl everyday and has mentioned a "Christmas album." Which could mean a new album in December. I think well here new music later this year or next year at the latest. They have about 3 ablum's worth of material they could release.

  • Horrible live performance. Axl's voice sounds like a dog taking a diarrhea dump on a garbage can filled with rotten beef carcasses

  • @momurda99 All great singers have off nights or voice problems at one point or another in their career. Like you could even dream to do better.

    Just GTFO troll. Try to fix your life.

  • @momurda99 fottiti coglione...si sparla tanto di quest'album per la formazione del gruppo...questa è stata la ricerca di un'opera d'arte riflessa nei sogni di un artista leggendario..

    P.S.: e se non capisci l'italiano son cazzi tuoi scarica un traduttore...

  • Who the hell can watch this and still think Chinese sucks...in terms of a rocker this song can stand beside anything Axl has ever done IMO.

  • Take that f@#$ing POP TARTS! THIS IS REAL MUSIC!!!!

    So glad the Rock God is back to reclaim his throne!

  • Axl is great, i'm just sorry he doesn't have a clock! LOL

  • GNR's 2010 performances are FAR superior to this, as Axl's voice has got it's "rasp" back nowadays and he's finally sorted out the hair :)

  • @RussHoweINC But... Robin Finck > Slashba.

  • @PatrickRM7 *facepalm*

  • what happened to Axl's voice??

  • Great song....Axel still has it............can't wait for him and Slash to get back together !!!

  • Super song... Honestly... This could be on any GnR album and no one would mind. Chinese Democracy was pretty damn sweet for the most parts but naturally expectations were higher than anyone could ever achieve. I miss "real" GnR but personally I have nothing against Axel's Guns.

  • @Mii85

    Bullshit. It wouldn't belong on Appetite, where the band what at its rawest and best.

  • ha i cant believe u said great job GUNS...good song but there not guns all they are now is axl n fags

  • this vid keeps kickin' ass realy the greatest song i know at this moment. it has grown on me so much that i even have the feeling myself right now .... axl this is your best

  • Love the song but this is not the best performance of the song though.

  • great song!!!i just want to know if its a love song?

  • AWESOMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • En mi opinión su mejor tema. se viene su concierto en Barcelona!

  • Love'n this song at the moment.

  • yo a axl, le veo un poco cascao

  • i love this song, you can feel the old g'n'r-spirit...

  • Axl's like a wild animal.

  • @jgrantkerr Yeah, a wild animal I've wanted in my bed since I was 12 (17 years)

  • CHINESE DEMOCRACY-GREAT album...!!!.for this song you need to have POWER...but the only man who had that is AXL ROSE...!!!

  • @persyTh so agreed! He is/was totally magic, so powerful and mmmm

  • Axl keep rockin'

  • woW!!! i love axl rose, guns n roses and i love too much the guitarist!!!!!! thy're wonderfull!!!!! I think chinese democracys cd is the very best of

  • I am going to see them too, in the Netherlands.

    This will be my first concert and then the first time a great band like this one! :D

  • Best frontman ever!!

  • Can't wait to see em live , and on my birthday no less :D can't wait

  • i miss robin he is 10000 times better than dj ashba

  • does any one know if axl still plays guitar

  • @ALEXISNACEOSBYRNE yeah he plays on madagascar on the album or there was a time one or other

  • @ukilledmydog lead or rythm,likey rythm but you know..

  • @ALEXISNACEOSBYRNE He played guitar on a few tracks from ChiDem. When Axl was answering questions on fan sites someone asked him why kept him from playing guitar live, he replied skill.

  • still are a good band but not as legendary as old times, and axl's voice is not that good. but i still love the band :)

  • good job. best audio, and video, quality i've seen on this yet. wish axel wasn't such an a-hole, we'd have more of a selection.

  • i've watched this version so many times and still axl seems to amaze me in this vid

  • can ANYBODY tell me, after havin seen this...that Gunsn Roses arent still going STRONG?!

    FUCKIN AWESOME!

  • very good GNR 4EVER!!! FUCKIN JUSTIN BIEBER!!! FUCK LADY GAGA!!

  • When and where was this?!?! Some1 pls tell me!!!

  • @IgorBarasin, this performance was from the show Rock AM Ring in Germany, 2006. You can find the entire GNR ROCK AM RING show here on youtube.

    Nightrain and Knocking on Heaven's Door from this show were INCREDIBLE!

    Axl's voice has actually gotten better and much stronger since 2006. you can find lots of videos from the 2010 GNR tour of Canada and South America.

    Also, there was a semi-acoustic show at the Rose Bar in the US. it was brilliant & some songs from there are here on Youtube too.

  • id rather see him without them dreads he got

  • When and where was this?!

  • great Axl we all love you!!!

  • I can't believe people think this is so great. It's an ok tune in it's studio version, but after 15 years of waiting, it's hardly a masterpiece. That's true of most of the album. All the good songs have annoying soft parts like this one, and the rest of the songs are just crap.

    I see people talking about GNR being spectacular these days, all I see in this vid is a mish mash of good musicians who are slumming horribly and Axl STRUGGLING to stay even slightly in key. He sounds like shit live.

  • @Slimer049

    WOW... U think Axl is struggling to stay in key? REALLY!!!! I love these musical experts who prob can't tune a single instrument..... shut up and don't hate retard. where is he out of key you SImon wanna be, please, do everyone a favor, shut up and go back to your mom's basement

  • @pcaill What, are you 4? Insulting a complete stranger over a dildo like Axl Rose? Maybe YOU should go back to your mom's basement. Not liking something that sucks doesn't make me a hater. Maybe you like licking Axl's balls for everything he does, but I don't. Sucks is sucks. This is a so-so song and Axl, who was never that good a singer in the first place, fucking BLOWS now. He's not in key for most of it. Fact. Get over yourself, gayballs. You clearly don't know shit about music or musicians.

  • @Slimer049 awesome song. actually its the only one song on the album which kinda reminds me of the past and real great times of guns. and not only the song but the way it is performed also. when axl throws that stuff (i dont know the name of it, sorry, my english is poor) that holds the mic -its supersticious. thats axl as i know him from back in brasil.

  • hehe. okay, the guys say he is not able to sing anymore, hes only shouting out loud, and thats all. yeah, i agree, but see, what a piece of fckn rock legend: millions of people keep listening how he shouts all the time...

    :)

  • @vilmospadre

    Sir, clearly you have no idea what you are talking about. Axl Rose is one of the greatest singers ever, with a huge vocal range and several different voices.

  • @ERST105

    sire, i completely agree with you in this question, so i may have some kind of idea what im talking about:)

    axl is the greatest of all.

  • hehe. okay, the guys say he is not able to sing anymore, hes only shouting out loud, and thats all. yeah, i agree, but see, what a piece of fckn rock legend: millions of people keep listening how he shouts all the time...

    :)

  • WOW!!!!!

  • excelent song... GNR forever...

  • Gonna call the President Gonna call a Private Eye Gonna get the IRS Gonna need the FBI There's not anymore That I can do

  • The more I watch this, the more I begin to think this is the best GNR performance of any song..... Ever. Listen how pissed off Axl sounds at 1:05.

    This is great!

  • Love this song.

  • Comment removed

  • great song album sucks!

  • The old band was one of the best of all time but the new band musically is excellent and the album Chinese Democracy is truly outstanding.I have sen the old band 4 times, met Slash and seen the new band twice.I like all of their music.Probably my favorite all time rock n roll band.

  • he still dances funny :) lol

    i love GNR!!

  • Hey Wouldnt Zack Wylde be a good fit with GNR now???????????????

  • @frank2727 No, Slash, Duff, Steven/Matt, and Izzy would be a good fit!

  • I was almost frightened to listen to this but he sounds pretty good, especially towards the end of the song. Amazing that he can still pull off those high pitched screams at his age.

  • @ayambumba, you should watch his performances from the 2010 tour. he sounds unbelievable!

  • Axl can still perform faster songs, slower songs are problematic..

  • Really? what about This I love? maybe you should check that out... just saying

  • he got better,watched him at newer shows..much better!

  • actually the opposite is true and that is fairly evident on chinese democracy.

  • AXL's Still Got It

  • axl is the best²!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Axl is the best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Axl Roses = 1 words:

    BEST!!!!!!!!!

  • The best performance of IRS live... although Tokio 2009 rivals this...

  • Edmonton '10 was better. :)

  • one of my favorite of chinese democracy!!great to see it live!!!!!!!

  • i follow guns, and every time i can i go to their shows, i must tell you, axl didn`t miss anything, he is better than ever, his voicce is amaizing and makes you shake when he is on the stage, besides every one who was in the last show saw him touched, moved with each song, he has a new feeling. if you can go to see him live. Kissssssseeeess for you all

  • like guns or not theres no way a better front man in rock then axel he always gives 100% up there hes f**king great and the more u listen to these new tracks the better they get 5stars P.S JACKAL

  • god...it was great!!

    the best band in the whole fucking world.

    come to Isreal plzzz!!

  • free Palestine

  • a Voz do Axl ta foda !

    GUNS N' ROSES ♥

  • i agree, but to be fair he is almost 50 so it is to be expected :\

  • man i hope they come to america i wanna go see them

  • Wow, that was good. I used to like his old voice but i fucking love the raspyness in his voice now!

  • guns é demaisssss

  • Boy oh boy, I sometimes wonder when parts of this song was recorded, because he sings it (at some points) better than on the studio version.

  • When my brother was doing his taxes he was singing this song ! I had to laugh that GN'R came through with another great song on Chinese Democracy !

  • I am going to see them In Montreal and cant wait to see this ROCK LEGEND

    Great album, you rock

  • Wish they would come to europe :( I can only hope and wait...

  • @mcquick69 C'étais vrt bon à Montréal

  • @mcquick69 They are still amazingly good LIVE eh?

  • AXL isen`t the same enymore but if you realy like gnr you sholud shut up and listent to the music!

  • I think that the chinese democrazy live tour will shut up a lot of mouths...

    great live guns!

  • AXL ROSE is a fucken badass vocalist WITH a legendary band

  • axl used to wear an N.W.A hat onstage sometimes so obviously he loved the messages they were talking about. By the way im a black guy and i always loved G'N'R alot of early rap like ice cube, dr.dre, snoop dogg, and 2pac were great not like the shit now ( eminem, 50 cent amd the new dr.dre). the point im tryin to make is open ur horizons, peace out homies :p

  • oldschool gangsta rap was badass and GUns N Roses Are FUCKEN AWesome

  • strong catchy song

    I'm getting used to the new Axl and his guns thanks to U tube

    His voice is still great ! his moves are a little incicure

  • Nice Performance !!!! Axl Voice is Awesome

  • this isn`t the worst I`ve seen axl...actually, of his newest live performances (2004 onward) its actually not bad

  • there were a few times when I cringed. However, the majority was pretty good.

  • axl rocks one of the all time great front men, and there newest tracks are pretty good dont no why they never made any videos 4 them 5 stars P.S JACKAL

  • God I love this performance. His voice is a little shakey at the start, but is just so raw in the middle and end.

  • this song is so fuckin cool ! I love it...! *Gonna make it a federal case !

    Ahh.. Good Guns !

  • I love the words to this song and you can really get yourself grooving and dance to it !

  • axl didnt want to give up guitar based rock - there is a lot of that on Chinese Democracy. he just wanted GNR to keep growing and challenging themselves because stagnation kills creativity.

    slash's approach was more formulaic, doing the same crunch rock over and over. if Axl had followed slash's approach, GNR would never have been anything more than Velvet Revolver.

  • I agree with ya. I hear alot of songs from Chinese on FM radio. The radio station I listen to when VR first came out said that Slash needed to do something different because he was too predictable.I do know if Axl would of listened to Slash about not wanting to play Sweet Child 'O' Mine because he hated it, it's hard telling what would of happened.With the challenging of GN'R Chinese is great and glad Axl didn't give up guitar-based.

  • I actually agree with all that you sayed, but Axl really should change bands name. It's not Guns N Roses.

  • Thanks ! I have thought about that also but I feel Axl has the right to keep the band name that him and Tracii Guns put together. Tracii and two others members left leaving Izzy and Axl and it wasn't changed then. It's Axl's legacy but I did think maybe after Guns N' Roses an added word for example-Afterglow.

  • Is Axl not the same person? Yep, you're right. He's almost 20 years older... what did you expect?

    I agree with blueskiesbrowneyes .

  • great song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • i grew up listening to GNR too and i disagree emphatically with you and have every right to express this. develop the tolerance to accept opposing view points rather than pretending that people are "high" just because they contradict you.

    nobody has said that Axl has always been right about everything but the fact is that a lot of ppl have attempted to re-write history trying to make Axl into a devil.

    why has slash been in 3 bands and fueded with all 3 frontmen? why no comments on that?

  • blueskiesbrowneyes---you got my thumbs up 100%.I was very young when I saw GN'R in 1988 and Slash laying on the stage playing his guitar,that blew it for me.Man, Axl is alot happier now and the line-up is awesome.The connection is there.Alot of younger ppl don't understand that Slash was drinking very heavy and drugs to the point he was close to killing himself and made alot of bad decisions during this time.If Axl was as bad as Slash makes him sound why didn't Slash quit.

  • Nobody realizes that Slash hasn't been asked to join another band from what I have read and that may be because of Slash's drinking and drugs and speaking about Axl in an immature way that another band doesn't need that crap.Axl was the one who gave Slash a break in the first place because nobody would and that's the thanks Axl gets from Salsh.I don't know if those two are talking yet.Slash has done something to Axl that Axl isn't gonna let his guard down and Axl is very forgiving.

  • Slash left in Oct. 1996 which because Axl had interest in industrial and electronic music and Slash said he'd return only if Axl decided to return guitar-based rock&roll. Duff,Dizzy and Chris were up for a change,not Slash so he walked.I don't know how anyone can blame Axl for a decission everybody else in the band was for except Slash.

  • <3 stinson's outfit ;)

  • axl rocks

  • mmm good song still i would like that buckethead wuz still in GNR

  • i agree

  • 1 of the greatest bands ever!:D

  • Chinese Democracy is great..love every song. But Axl needs to get in your face like he used to on his performances in the past GNR performances. In the past he got in your face and people loved it, he needs to step it up!

  • agree... hope he does that in the asian tour in december..

  • I think chinese democracy is one of the best albums of GNR. it's different from the other ones, but that do not mean that it isn't good.

    and axl was and is still one of the best singers ever.

  • most of ppl didnt like chinese democracy becuse it isnt the same style of old guns, but if u see the lyrics, and listen to the music u'll love it, nice said man ^^

  • Even though i don't like any of the new stuff, or even the new axl i must say he's singing with all he got in this perform...i respect him for all his efforts

  • Chinese Democracy would be an awesome album if it were made by any other band, but this music doesnt sound like Guns N' Roses, the words are old GNR, Axl is still writing amazing lyrics, but the music is nothing close to GNR.

  • You're totally right!

    That's exactly what i and most of the band fans think, the album is the GNR worst album, but it's cause it doesnt deserve the GNR name. Axl has a lot of problems, but who doesnt?

    I didn't like any of the decisions he made and i think the breakup was a lot because of him, but even so I like Axl...the OLD Axl more...

  • youre saying that Chinese Democracy is "worse" than the ultra-average Spagetti Incident?

    Chinese Democracy richly deserves the GNR name. GNR was known for growing and inventing and thats exactly what CD delivers. hating the new members simply because the replaced the old makes no sense.

    as for the break-up of the old guys, why exactly are you blaming axl for it? slash has been in 3 bands and each time he has feuded with his frontmen. is that axl's fault too?

  • The album can be great as anything but IT DOESN'T SOUND GNR, i dont give a damn about who is there on the band now, if it sounded like guns i would love it, but it doesn't.

    I grew up listening to GNR i am not just saying because i dont have nothing else to do.

    If you like this guns, good for you, i don't. respect my point no one said i hated the new members, you re very high i must say. i blame axl and everyone on the band , but if you cant open your mind i cant do anything

  • again, that is a bankrupt point. what did "GNR" "sound" like, huh? they had hard rockers, piano ballads and they STILL do. to say that street of dreams, There was a Time, IRS, This I Love dont sound anything like the GNR of old reflects prejudice and nothing else.

    GNR always experimented with their sound and thats what CD does too. to expect tem to come back after more than a decade sounding like they did in 92 is remarkably daft and unrealistic.

  • dude i already said i dont give a damn if the musicians aren't there anymore, i liked them, but i also liked Axl. i just wanted to hear something from the new band and i didn't, got me?

  • well thats just a matter of your expectations then.

    learning to accept quality musicians for what they are is a worthwhile journey.

  • Lol these people are idiots man. No 80s band sounds the same like they did. I didn't expect CD to sound like AFD or UYI. CD was a nice decent album. The only bad thing is that Axl didn't promote the album well.

  • you dont like "any" of axl's decisions? like which ones? the others decided to leave- he didnt fire any of the original GNR guys.

    it was axl's decision to include Sweet Child o MIne on Appetite for Destruction while slash, duff and steven totally opposed it and tried to kill the song. SCOM became GNR's biggest hit of all time.

    good decision by axl, wont you say?

  • I NEVER said he made only bad decisions , so i won't even start to argue about this. Axl is not the same person and his mind changed a lot, so as his decisions.

    WTF I like Axl, hes great, but it seems people can't desagree with him in nothing or a lot of people who don't even try to think about it, just come and protect him, try to think, look at all sides of history

  • blueskies, I agree with alot of what you have said. I have heard many times that Izzy nor Slash liked doing the videos that were considered Axl's feelings with his break up with Erin. November Rain,estranged and Don't cry. They did not want to grow with axl's vision for the band. They were happy with the club seen. But I bet they liked the money !

  • I wish I had their money for a day !

  • such an awesome song, chinese democracy is my favorite album ever! the old stuff rocks and the old band were way cooler but i love chinese

  • fuckin' incredible ! \m/

    nowadays bands don't know how to do this kind of music...this is a anthem

  • wow

  • Axl is one of best front men of all time! Compelling and energetic!

  • only problem i have with this song is axl's dreds lol its a great song, no questions about it

  • Much better than that drunk ass slash and the rest of the crackheads.

  • IRS = Izzy Rose Slash haha

    "gonna need the IRS"

  • izzy

    duff "rose" mckagan

    and slash

    yeah man.never noticed that

  • ahh, he still does that side moon walk dance thing.

  • thy is duff wearing his pajamas?

  • that is tommy stinson, not duff mckagan. why do you think they call it "the new gn'r?" and it looks more like a suit than pjs.

  • Thats not Duff

  • It is Guns N' Roses. Axl doesn't care if it sounds like the stuff from b4. it should b somewhat different. overall it's a badass guns album. 3:47 is classic Axl Rose tho.
