  • Dear lord, what did I just listen to...? I'm sorry, this is not the guns and roses from '88 at the Ritz. It's not even in the same universe... You're kidding yourself if you think this the 'Same 'ol guns!'. I gave it a chance but this is not guns n roses...

  • Damn... I had heard that this song was horrible, but this is actually DAMN BADASS! I had bought Democracy, and thought it was OK. Before yesterday.

    I listened the whole album through 2 times, and now that I think it... it rocks! No matter what ''Real GnR fans'' say, Chinese Democracy (and this song) kicks ass!

  • Buckethead

  • Fuckin bad ass song!!!!

  • Jeez, I don't remember but I know I heard this song years ago. And its the exact reason I haven't heard it since then. I liked the Chinese Democracy CD but I'm so happy he didn't do this. There were parts like Shackler's and Better that I didn't like but this takes them to a whole nother worse level IMO.

  • i stopped to listen to chinese democracy even bought it and still was far from impressed sorry guys

  • @MurderNun fair enough, at least you gave it a try, most people don't even bother listening to a song (which are all free online so its not hard)

  • Is GNR waiting until there is literal Chinese democracy before they reunite and create another masterpiece?

  • Chinese Democracy starts now...

  • First time hearing this track, I like it! I've always heard it mentioned, sounds more like thrash metal than industrial...I guess the vocal effects are industrial...great track!

  • My favorite song from gnr

  • this looks like aces high form iron maiden

  • this is the first gnr song i ve ever heard

    downloaded it from napster , thought it sucked

    manson was better

  • this song would have fit perfectly in between "shackler's revenge" and "better" :D

  • I'm a huge Dave Navarro fan, it'd be interesting to hear what he would've done if he had been a full-time member of GNR. In my opinion, he's a better guitar player than Slash. Slash just plays the same shit, Navarro plays it all. Heavy, chordy, textured, flashy, jam-based, funky, etc.

  • @NickODU2015 Obviously you havent listened to all of Slash's stuff then.

  • @foogledoo32 Wrong, I've listened to every GNR album and the first Velvet Revolver album. I'm willing to bet you haven't listened to all of Jane's albums from start to finish. If you had, you would know that Navarro is better than Slash.

  • @NickODU2015 Obviously that's your opinion. Nobody can say who's a better guitarist. All I'm saying is that if you listen to "Don't Damn Me", "Breakdown", and "The Garden" you would realize none of it sounds the same. All I'm saying.

  • @NickODU2015 listen to Slash's solo album. Almost every song is completely different and its great. The guy might be overrated at times, but he does shine every now and then also.

  • OMG!

  • OMG I CAN'T DENY THIS!!

  • just a random thought...Avenged Sevenfold would do good covering this song...just saying

  • At first I was unsure about this song, now I'm obsessed with it. People just need to give this and Chinese Democracy a fucking chance.

  • My new favorite:D

  • this sounds like megadeth lol

  • @FallIntoWinterr Yeah, the chorus is very Megadeth.

  • D'la musique de blaireau!

  • Dave Navarro

    The Sous of this song

  • This cannot be overplayed.

  • wow.... that sucked

  • @Tombinater but that song is more hard rock, the real style of guns n' roses, than every tracks of Chinese Democracy.

  • in honor of the original band I guess?

  • Intro is awesome

  • after my freinds (they are stupid because the ONLY song they listen too is sweet child of mine) forced me to listen to sweet child of mine a MILLION times i finally got tired of guns n roses. then i heard this :D. also my freinds think because i listen to all types of rock,and a mix of everything that im stupid.stupid people

  • @dawusupman i know how you feel man, im like the black sheep of my group of friends (music wise) :P 

  • better than all tracks of chinese democracy

  • @grdoo1 I disagree. I think Chinese Democracy was an excellent album.

  • He was an excellent album but the others albums are better!

  • better than most of chinese democracy. maybe they shoulda just saved this one lol

  • Oh my God !!! Suuuperrrrr

  • on which album is this song? i never heard it before? i looked on chinese democracy, but i dont got it. could it be because i am in europ or something like that?

  • @kistucs - It was heavily rumoured to be on Chinese Democracy but it never made it to the final release it seems... this song IS on an album though - the End of Days Soundtrack has this song as the song featured both in the movie and in the end credits of the movie. Hope this helps you :)

  • @CitroenC407 thanks m8

  • @kistucs - No prob :) WELL worth getting the End of Days Soundtrack just for this song alone :) That being said - the entire End of Days CD is actually decent enough aswell aside from this song :)

  • @kistucs chinese democracy was supposed to come out in 1999 and this song was released in 1999 for the end of days movie in anticipation for the album.

  • @kistucs End of Days soundtrack I think. 

  • The only thing I have to say is OH MY GOD!! Although the song is ok, it sounds nothing like Guns N Roses... Just compare this song to "Patience", absolutely everything is different: the guitar, the voice, the drums and the bass. It must be the proof that Axl Rose is an amazing composer.

  • I understand why Slash wanted to leave when Axl wanted to make music like this, this is not bad tho but Slash would never agree to play music like this.

  • its sound like coma

  • Gosh, what an ugly song!!

  • @ZR1Terror NO YOU'RE UGLY!

  • pordios! quien canta?! este no es Axl!!! así menos se llaman Guns N' Roses

  • yeah this song is and always will be badass and it is pretty old school sounding in my opinion, its right there with garden of eden and perfect crime and right next door to hell, everybody wants a band to progress but when guns n roses does it people hate, grow the fuck up, guns n roses old band or new kicks fucking ass and your denying yourself true expression with with mindless hate, after all teh only one whos lost in the game, is you :)

  • yeah this song is and always will be badass and it is pretty old school sounding in my opinion, its right there with garden of eden and perfect crime and right next door to hell, everybody wants a band to progress but when guns n roses does it people hate, grow the fuck up, guns n roses old band or new kicks fucking ass and your denying yourself true expression with with mindless hate, after all teh only one whos lost in the shuffle, is you :)

  • A true fan would never say something like: "They are great now as well as they were great back then". There is no band who is great about one person especially GN'R where everyone had his special charisma and this made the band so great. Without the others Axl has only the old hits and nothing else! Every true fan of GN'R knows that only Appetite for Destruction is a TRUE GN'R's album. After then without Izzy and Steven it wasn't the same.

  • whoa...this does not sound like guns n roses. im disapointed. to heavy metal for me. what happened to classic rock with these guys/.? i miss the old days.

  • Guns N Roses was is nothing without Slash.

  • asqueroso esto

  • chinese democracy is good... the people that criticize him is because never stopped to listen

  • @belsinhaeu No, it's because they compared it to AFD or Use Your Illusion

  • @NickODU2015 no one should waste time comparing things; up because it will not make any difference.

  • Slash & Axl was the bests

  • this sucks!!!

  • @youkid1991 shut up

  • @Lifeisbeautiful848 how can you tell me that this sounds good?

  • Early Guns were better, but there are no GnR without Slash, this is Axels solo album, and Slash made one solo too, and it's fuckin' great, far better than this, at least in my opinion.

  • Is this one of those songs Axl recorded as a 'joke' like My World? I mean he SAID it was a joke once everyone heard it... know what I'm sayin'?

  • what a shitty fkn song...

  • one word ; slash

  • i was born in the wrong decade ):

  • guns a perdido su toce de hard ese parece metal industrial o mas bien basura metal no mamen por eso slahs se salio del grupo me decepcionas guns.

  • que fea rola :S eso paresese metal industrial, no hard rock!!!

  • tracii and thoughs other guys never made it anyware when slash and duff steven and izzy ware in they ware the real guns

  • DAMN the last line!!!! i lost.... awesome song though <3 gnr.

  • Axl's voice was terrible in 2001. I would pay anything for him to sing it present day. his voice is godlike now

  • wtf? Axl really gone wild!!!!!!! GnR is known as a pure hardrock band!!!!!! this sucks! metal rock sucks... you only shake your head like a retard.... no lyrical stuff

  • @CloneCaptainV2224 this aint true. are you saing that back in black, iron man and many others famous metal songs are bad?

  • @Luxmaxnike pretty much... and i don't see no metal rock in ac.dc as i don't see no hardrock in them... that is a fake band.... dunno how the hell they got that famous

  • @CloneCaptainV2224 thats not true in my opinon, but i respect your`s anyway. so, what bands do you like?you can reply in my canal page since this isint our private chat

  • love this song and love the way axl performs it!!!! tremdous job in 2001!!!

  • my new fav song from axl!!! love to watch him perform this!!!

  • i love that song ! i like new Gnr and they were pretty good live in Quebec last year. That new guitar player Ashba is fucken good and i think he's hot :D

  • Oh geez, I usually love all GnR, Even Chinese Democracy, but I do not like this at all! I just sounds like when they wrote it they didn't care about how it sounded and just wanted it over with. Just my opinion feel free to flip out of me now xD

  • @Jordanafran yeah. they didnt made nothing for along time, so they didi this shit single just to fill the black. chinese democracy although took time but is one of the best albuns of guns.

  • I love the song. I love the 'new' Guns just as well as the old. But I must ask. Why the picture? This by far is not the original Guns N' Roses.

  • @austinwessonmusic777 Axl, Slash, Izzy, Duff, and Steven? Umm.. yeah, that IS the original Gn'R. The real G'nR.

  • @saulhudson420 no..the originally member is Axl rose,tracii guns,izzy,ole bech, and rob gardner......but slash is the longerst lead guitar evr stay in gnr..and he is god of lead guitar

  • @saulhudson420 'Oh My God' was not recorded by the original GN'R. That is why I raised the question as to why the hell this picture is on this video.

  • @austinwessonmusic777 Ohhh, nevermind, I misunderstood.

  • @saulhudson420 It's fine haha. Some idiot is still trying to convince me that Axl, Slash, Duff, Izzy, and Steven recorded this.

  • Comment removed

  • @austinwessonmusic777 Isn't this precisely the original G'n'R? Everyone else joined or left later

  • @mirdrin The original gigging, recording line-up of Guns N' Roses would be W. Axl Rose. Slash. Duff McKagan. Izzy Stradlin. and Steven Adler. The people who recorded this song would be Axl, Dizzy Reed, and a bunch of other people who I cannot recall.

  • @austinwessonmusic777 There is also Dave Navarro, Tommy Stinson and Paul Tobias

  • sounds like it is more close than chinese democracy

  • thumbs up for the people what hear this song why read the biography of GNR

  • @The3MINEM LOL!!! its not cool to spy on people..( in my case slash autobiography..=) )

  • this is compressed beyond listenability... its like listening to sound ebbing through a concrete wall

  • pero, porque no te callas!?

  • load of shite slash duff izzy adler and axl was the band guns n roses do not exist anymore just some man tryin to keep the name going by seelin out his real music style. axl is a dick the real gnr played far better music than this gnr is dead

  • still better than the song by usher

  • wrong pic

  • Comment removed

  • This is such an amazing song!

  • thats really cool

  • @AxlRemix while i do agree this is an awesome song, i gotta disagree with you, Chinese Democrazy was the worse album ive heard in a long time, and i am a huge Gn'R fan.

  • this song really reminds me of the old gnr, especially the singing and couplet,

  • omg axl looks sooo sexy n hot in that pic!!1! :)

  • Awesome song!

  • can't wait for this to be released

  • @aFuckingTroll this was a single released in 98'...

  • @spooky57571 I meant properly released and remastered... Axl said they were working on it, changed intro, added guitars... anyways.

  • @aFuckingTroll End of Days soundtrack 1999

  • pues si... Axl es un hijo de puta, los guns eran los mejores cuando estaban Duff, Steven, Izzy, Slash y el puto de Axl, despues vinieron 150 mas y se hecho todo a perder

  • no ps yerick es gay

  • only good gnr song without the original line up (not including adler)

  • Best chorus I ever heard. So catchy. Well that is typical Axl for you. Making perfect songs.

  • oh my god!!!!! i cant belive this was the very last fucking guns n roses song!!!!! shiiiit!!!

  • @condeguga What do you mean? This was made in 1999. Without slash.

  • This is fucking awesome! Can't wait for the version with Buckethead's solo on it.

  • Really good. If DJ and ron and richard changed some parts around it would be the best song ever. Chorus is best.

  • @8bitJoker Listen to chinese f'n democracy!

  • This really is the worst GN'R song there is. Even Chinese Democracy (the whole album) is better than this.

  • @mbarrett12

    Not entirely true this song is better than some of the songs on Chinese Democracy

  • @ShotyKilla It's 100% worse than everything on Appetite, UYI 1 & 2 and even The Spaghetti Incident

  • @mbarrett12

    This song is good because it has strength in it's lyrics and btw

    if you don't like it then why are you listening to it!

  • @ShotyKilla Lyrics don't make a song. They add up to a song. I listened to it because I saw it on a list of worst songs ever and never heard it, and I didn't think Guns would make an abomination like this

  • @mbarrett12

    If this is an abomination then why does it have 83,000 + views

  • @ShotyKilla You can't rate songs on youtube views. Paradise City has 3mil so this is pretty low

  • Comment removed

  • @mbarrett12

    The reason it's on a list like that is because the guys who made it were probably mad that old Guns broke up. Just a bunch of whiny fags who have nothing better to do. I admit, it's not the best song but it's surely not the worst. I admit i hated it when it first came out, but after a while it grew on me. It's pretty good. but that's my opinion, you have a right to hate it.

  • @Irishleatherneck Old GN'R are the only GN'R. It's just WAR now. W. Axl Rose. It's definitely worse than any song on AFD, UYI 1 and 2 and even the Spaghetti Incident

  • @mbarrett12 There is no old GN'R, there is only one true Guns N' Roses, and it's fronted by Axl Rose. And you're an idiot.

  • @Cyanarchy Wow...are you like 10? The old Guns N' Roses was Axl, Slash, Duff McKagan, Izzy Stradlin and Steven Adler. How you can say that the true GN'R is the one now means you're not a real GN'R fan. Axl pushed all the other band members out and now THIS is the true GN'R? You're the idiot.

  • @mbarrett12 GN'R was Izzy Stradlin and Axl Rose, and if you've heard ChiDem you'd realize Axl does just fine without Izzy, nonetheless, I'm very excited about the song on the next Guns album that is co-written by Izzy, Down By The Ocean. Axl didn't push them out, they chose to leave.

  • @Cyanarchy Oh yeah? Tell that to Popcorn and Gilby........

  • @beanolabub Adler was a junkie, and Gilby was never meant to be permanent. "Axl phoned me one day and told me that he had written some new stuff that wasn't like the old material. So he thought that my way of playin' guitar wouldn't give these new songs the right sound, or the way he wanted it to sound. But I wouldn't say that they fired me, or that I quit. My job as a guitarist in Guns just "stopped".

  • @Cyanarchy

    except for steven, and actually, by the way he was acting towards the band, he almost forced them to, as they couldnt force him to leave as he owned rights to the band, and it wasnt a band anymore.. he acted as if he ruled supreme to the bad

  • @Hebamundo Whatever is necessary to get the junkie who can't play right out.

  • @Cyanarchy

    which junkie..? :S

  • @Hebamundo Popcorn.

  • @Cyanarchy Your right because GNR without Axl is just a band.

  • @diablo9333 I'm not sure I understand what you're trying to say, could you clarify please?

  • @Cyanarchy Oh my other comment didn't appear. Well you wrote something about no old gnr just one fronted by Axl Rose and I was agreeing with you with my last comment.

  • @diablo9333 Oh, thank you for clarifying.

  • @diablo9333 And Axl without the Gn'R band, is just a joke and a BRAND.

  • @iconiclust New GNR is awesome. Screw slash.

  • @diablo9333

    Fuck you Filthy swine. Slash is awesome

  • @ShotyKilla Well I like slash as a player put not as a person. He screwed up to many people's lives.

  • @diablo9333

    how

  • @ShotyKilla Well ask Axl, Scott and the Members of GNR and slash's snakepit. He moves onto new bands every couple of years because he gets "bored" of playing the same songs. He just filed for divorce from his wife and before GNR he just left the band he was in when he played with them for longer than he knew Axl. He is all in it for money. If he cared he wouldn't be like he is today. Everything he does is commercial. He goes to a signing every week just to promote himself.

  • @diablo9333 hmmm let me see why not ask Duff, Izzy, and Matt sorum instead of asking two frontman that our waste cases. I like the new GN'R and Axl but common Slash is way better and be serious here how much more promotion does he need? he's already well known through out the world he does the signings for the fans.

  • @18andLifeSR Well sure for the fans but when you get to those signings he promotes himself for people who haven't heard him aka little kids(not calling him a rapist fyi). I don't hate slash I just think the spends too much time promoting where new gnr has had at least 4-5 shows sold out without a ton of promotion.

  • @diablo9333 but the thing is Axl is smarter by not promoting himself because people already know how he is. He is always late for shows, it took him over a decade to do Chinese Democracy, band members are always changing because of him. I believe ther wer 4 different guitarists on chinese damocracy whereas Slash still sells out shows and tours and yes promotes himself, but why not? Look at how many fans he has already that do promoting for him.

  • @18andLifeSR Well it is not how you think. I mean how would you feel if your best guitarist just left and now you have to replace him. Slash as most people say is irreplaceable which is why Guns has took a sharp turn so Axl can find a guitarist. See Buckethead just came in 2001 and he already got pissed off because a record wasn't out by 2002. GNR never worked on anything after 1993 so obviously they would have nothing(except a few songs). Right there would make 3 and the rest are in guns so....

  • @18andLifeSR Guns has also been promoting themselves but only through t-shirts and so far only 1 or 2 tv ads(done by the event they are playing at). If slash was so that he wouldn't need all this promotion. A friend of mine said a friend of theirs went to one of slash's concerts and it only had like 300-500 people. Obviously the promotion isn't working and it is because he does it too often.

  • @diablo9333 don't do that friend of a friend bullshit man... Guns started working on new music in 1995 and that is also when Slash left because Axl was being a dick as usual. Slash stated that Axl was being a dictator, same reason why the rest left as well. I love Axl's new music and Slash's, but I'm pretty sure Slash is just a better business man. If you had your own company are you going to just let the people come to you without promoting? of course you're not.

  • @18andLifeSR Yes you are right. They were working on Sympathy for the devil for a movie. ONLY ONE SONG. That isn't even close to enough to put on an album. You usually need to make 24-26 songs and then the label chooses what ones they like the most. If you haven't noticed Duff is like slash's puppet. He loves Axl now but hated him when he left. Heck he went on stage with him a couple of months ago. Axl is Duffs friend again and he has no problems with Izzy or Matt(as said in an interview).

  • @diablo9333 actually incase you didn't know which you obviously don't, Slash was working with Axl at the beginning of Chinese Democracy and then left because he didn't like Axl's style switch to a more industrial rock. You need to stop focusing on Axl's point of view as well. Slash stated in an interview that it was possible for a gunners reunion and he would for the fans but when Axl stated that he would die before reuniting with Slash, Slash changed his mind because of Axl's usual stubborness.

  • @diablo9333 either way man they are both being littl girls about the situation. Guns N' Roses (original) is my favourite band but they need to grow up and do this for the fans, seriously how can you hold a grudge against someone for over a decade unless ther is something they havn't said.

  • @diablo9333 I like Steven Adler's frame of mind though, "I put prayers in with Jesus and God all the time. 'Please just go talk to Axl,' I say. "I love the stuff we did together in my heart and my soul. It needs to be taken out of the shell and put back in the world. Two generations of people have already missed it. I think it's unfair".

  • @18andLifeSR At some point Axl may get something out with Steven. 

  • @iconiclust Axl was always the band.

  • @horrorjunkie92 I would say slash

  • @horrorjunkie92 you're so wrong
