  • I hate covers and thought that I would hate this. I like this better than the original. The mood fits this version and seems more authentic.

  • this is definately tongue in cheek. let's face axl rose is a ficking poseur. thanx fer the joke.

  • Love this verison!

  • This is the only way possible I could come close to enjoying a GNR song.

  • As covers go this is so damn good, all you Guns n Roses followers who say this is a sham, a spoiler, rubbish? come on people, it could have been so so much worse couldn't it? ...............

  • Why does everybody think that he has the right to spoil this song?..

  • This song is the beautiful and beloved daugther of hard rock: an inocent blonde girl with porcelain skin and shinny blue eyes... AND NOW SHE HAS BEEN BRUTALLY RAPED BY THIS SHITTY COVER!!!!!

  • @Xehen Oh shut up you silly person

  • @Xehen Hush now...let the stillness of this moment, caught in a perfect yet fragile bubble of serenity, wash over you like the silky soft ripples of a cool mountain spring. Allow it to embrace you, as if it were a familiar, yet long lost lover...and just like taking a deep, full breath, let if fill your inner self with the radiant warmth of love and peace...as you slowly exhale, let it draw the anxiety and tension of out of you. Be calm and find your happy place where you can gently rest.

  • Whoa, this is freaking amazing...

  • "The Best" can't be copy better:)

  • Sheryl Crow can get bent.

  • Listening to this version is like lying under a shady, lone maple tree on the highest hill, surrounded by rolling sea of other smaller grassy-green covered hills. It's one of those brilliant, sunny, mid-summer days where you look up and see giant, puffy white clouds moving lazily by as they make funny shapes of animals and faces. It's all contained by the upside-down, 'bowl' of the azure sky. You can just lie there peacefully, forever gazing up, with a cool breeze blowing by every now and then.

  • @dustymiller65 Oh my god you just painted a perfect picture of the song LOL! I love your description

  • @jonathan4me Thank you! Have a pleasant (and, Luna-sleepy) day. >:o)

  • @dustymiller65 - Day tripper! ;)

    

  • @qrowqer7 *bows* Thank you! ☺

  • @dustymiller65 what else could one ever want more? d(^_^)b

  • @dustymiller65 totally

  • none but the real gnr should ever play this song

  • @aron065 Yeah!!!

  • ZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZz

  • DON'T HATE ON A GREAT COVER BITCHES!!!! XD

  • Great cover XD

  • Interesting but not better than the cover by Taken by Trees.

  • Que hermoso cover!!!! y su solo me lleva a experimentar unos sentimientos,se nota que esta cancion salio del corazon!!

  • BEAUTIFUL !!!!!

  • I would hate to look in to her eyes and see an ounce of pain. I wish I could tell someone that but they would take it the wrong way. Great song great cover

  • Blows the original out of the water.

  • @Videodrome24 disagree.. =)

  • when a song is excellent,, leave it that way people!! try to do songs your own way..you'll always end up to be a copy cat after all!!!

  • GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAAAAAAY

  • @MrFergy3210 just like you!

  • lolz Luna and their covers. It's good though.

  • this cover kinda scares me...so i think ima just mosey on outta here...

  • well, I happen to like it...

  • @mattbrougher me too.

  • Esto es un cover señores, no tiene sentido hacer una versión de lo mismo, Luna, tomó esa canción y la trajo a su estilo, quien ha escuchado Luna sabe de que hablo.

  • only Guns n Roses... GUNS N ROSES... 

  • Comment removed

  • Omg this sucks more than fergie

  • this is great...........NOOTTTTTT!

  • this is a great version.

  • how the hell did i end up here im like dead serious W.A.T. T.H.E. F.U.C.K.

  • hnnggghnghnhng heartattacked

  • things are not good or bad by itself. we think them as this or that. just a song, just enjoy it. keep yourself here and now and let feelings pass through you as water pass the river. just be

  • this album cover is starting to freak me out! those eyes are gigantic!

  • Easy now people! 3 ways a cover can result - 1: Equal 2: Better and 3: Worse .-)

  • So slow and so sweet : )

  • Obviously the Guns version is better, fucking hell who the fuck isnt going to think so considering the wrote the fucker. Its not like if somebody else does a different version of a song, it always has to be shit just because they changed it. Its not against the law to like two different versions of the same song u know! Personally i think this is a very good effort and the song has been adapted into their own version. Kudos

  • @Phoenix1664 I agree just like "Live and Let Die" , obviously Paul McCartney's original version is vastly superior to GnR's cover version. The only difference in GnR's version is they played it a bit heavier.

    But I give them credit for the effort they put into it.

  • This is not ment to be the original why can't ppl get that in their heads personally I like this version and the original is better yes but this has a nice sentimental feel to it

  • Its beautiful !

  • This completely Fails to capture the true feel of this song, it has to be the laziest attempt at this song I've ever heard, no character or colour. It's as if they just played whilst sitting on a couch. What a bore

  • @StealthR31 people don't cover songs to make it have the same ambience and 'feel' as the original. I'm glad you didn't like it. You're a bore.

  • @hotsalvation101 if you cover a song than you like it right ? so then you would understand the message, feel or ambience that is required, i'm not saying make a replica but to me this cover is very monotone and lacks the emotional character the song requires to be delivered.

    why would you be glad someone doesn't like it if you do ?

  • @StealthR31

    i think you're listening to it for the wrong reasons, this music is a different genre

  • @mynameismeowth i know it is a different genre, i'm not a musical noob, i can appreciate all genre's but my opinion is that this is a butchery of this song.

  • a xillion times better then the original.

    if i didn't know any better i'd say this was a Luna or Galaxie 500 song.

  • sooooooooooo sleepy zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

  • was very good slow

  • this hurts to listen to...

  • you need to know this band in context. If you like the band (or doing downs) this is a great version!

    Get hundreds of silly faces for just $.99 on the app store!( Its awesome! )

  • Good version, I like the sentimental touch. He is talking about his memories. So this version really captures this. I wish the singer were better.

  • wow cool version

  • I forget who said if you're going to cover a song, make it your own. Luna makes this their own. No, it's not GNR, nor is intended to be. Comparison is foolish apples and oranges. This is beautiful trippy Luna in all its splendid wander.

  • WTF?!?!?!?

  • that's  SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Sheryl Crow cover is better this version sucks =)

    but the original version is better than all covers =)

  • Love it! 

  • sucks!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • thumbs up if your penis is as small as mine.

  • I think this better than the taken by trees cover ..

  • Thank you for posting this!

  • The cover by Taken By Trees is by far the best.

  • Omg, no no no the original is so much, so much better then this bad cover!!

  • cualquiera, esta es una versiòn tranqui, me recuerda a jefferson airplane, a sus lentos

  • linda voz pero...donde esta la adrenalina y la pasion? D: ademas no escuche ningun "sweet love of mine" ni un "where do we go, where do we go now"

  • @agusrevenge esto no es rock ni metal, tiene una onda hippie el tema, capisci?

  • @volframia666 ok, pero ni como tema hippie rinde :S muy linda voz y muy malgastada! :S ademas eso no qita la desaparicion de esas frases qe dije o.o besoo~:3

  • Waaay better than the original - few covers can claim that. Chill is a much better fit for this song than the way Guns' n'Roses wanked it completely. Well done Luna. But thanks to Axl and Slash for the words and chords!

  • @Debaser987  boooooo!

  • Comment removed

  • no no no.....I didn't liked this version.... :(

  • no!

    slash was da bomb!

    bt nt bad :)

  • Me encanto el solo

  • has a surf guitar vibe

  • good and smooth in my ear

  • pedazo de version!!

  • Never heard this version, was really good...nice soft and mellow.

  • Guns n'Roses are the GREATEST BAND EVER err. Um. Well, they were all right when I was sixteen anyway. Luna, on the other hand were and are still PHENOMENAL!

  • ok yes they did drink drugs to sleep before they recorder this

  • @Raymantico shut up! who ask your opinion about? 

  • The rest of the song is pretty cute, but the original is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay muuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuch better than this.

  • Fuck! The begining (0:01 - 0:20 )sounds exactely like a slower and calmer version "It's No Game (Part 1)" of David Bowie! It's fuckin' amazing!

  • muito legal !!!

  • what happen with this musicians?they drink drugs to sleep before recorder this??

    ´´woooooooooooo sweet chilllld .....zzzzzzzzzzzzz.....o mine..ddãããã `` so bored ,go to fuckin hell! ps: i dont speak english, so fuck you!

  • @cldslash Yeah man English is overrated

  • @cldslash u don't speak english? thank christ for that.  :)

  • Comment removed

  • @stephenmyers99 pois é amigo,eu não falo inglês,é apenas um exercício...ahá,te peguei,não entendeu nada né,quem manda ser uma marmota!

  • @cldslash I dont know what that means, but i'm sure it's derogatory LOL

  • @stephenmyers99 you are completely wrong,you dont know what means cause you are ignorant.

  • @cldslash if you dont speak english go climb back in your tree and play with your bongo drums you backwards hick douche. love it or not dont make derogitory comments for no reason on a good cover of a good song

  • Very nice. Simon Hadfield.

  • Proved, there's no way NO WAY you can top the original sweet child O mine; personally I think this version is soooooooo boring but that's beacouse I don't like dream pop that much; but I have to give it to this guys they at least make this song their own

  • nice change to the song

  • i won't take it what it is bcuz it fuckin' sucks

  • I'm very big GN'R fan. I love them. And that version is very very good..

    Very big llike for Luna ;)

  • OK! We don't need to argue with people that only listen what other people listen. Their musical taste is just so common that we don't need to discuss with them. Let's listen Dream Pop, Shoegaze and Noise Pop, and don't worry for the useless comments, just ignore them... and keep listening Luna!!!

  • They made an already great song better, so why is everybody bitching up a storm?

  • I think that it's funny that, of all the songs by Luna, this cover song has the most hits. Because their own stuff is ten times better.

  • q lixo vai imita otro!!!!

  • @gringo7305 não é imitação, isso se chama um 'cover' e da pra fazer de qualquer jeito, como quizer!

  • I love luna.

  • Don't mess up, G' N R !

  • This is great!!

    

  • No need to compare versions of songs. just take it for what it is. good lord.

  • It's actually quite simple. If you don't like this cover, you're musical retard and know nothing about excellent music.

    Thus, I suggest going back to their Gun & Roses version. Or they could stick with cheezy boy bands, or talentless, recycled Hip Hop or the country band that lost their lost chicken. Just leave us to enjoy what was a brilliant and truly underappreciated band from the early 90s to the mid 2000s. I've give 10:1 odds these same morons have never even heard of Galaxie 500.

  • God.. this is Wonderful, quienes fueron los 39 idiotas q no les gusto esto :?

  • For a ballad version of this, I'll take the Taken By Trees version...

  • beats the pathetic sheryl crow cover for sure

  • thanks -J- :D

  • GNR aint gots nothin on Dean.

  • gay

    

  • you are all idiots. die!!

  • better than bonnie tyler

  • this is garbage

  • alot of people hat ethis, but i love it lol

  • ehhhh not bad, but thats why sweet child of mine is great because it can be sung like this. guns n roses definately better. maybe if leonard cohen sang in this version could be better.

  • this sucks. if you cant pull it off then leave it alone. wish people wouldnt TRY to cover legendary songs like this

  • what

  • such a chill song.

  • the cover of this song goes back to references that the original meet up of the galaxie 500.. some members (a;; of whom couldt play instruments) suggested doing GnrR covers, to which dean gave an empathic no. years later here's a cover made his own. great stuff!

  • Nice - real nice  !

  • what a gorgeous, calm and sweet cover,

    i'm really enjoying right now

  • In any case in case of a female voice is "Brava" not "Bravo"!

  • Bravo - to use an English phrase. You said it. You meant it. It means the best. Bravo. You fell there.

  • Of all the covers of this song... I admit, you just can't beat the original. You just can't cover a song like this, but these guys... Bravo! They did a good job!

  • that is horrible the guitar is completely out of tune and it sounds like folk music.

  • that's quite funny, but you are wrong.

  • Thank you, Dean Wareham!

  • @LuisManolo36 you're an idiot. But I suspect many people have told you this.

  • @LuisManolo36 LOL...I just typed the same thing on another version of this song. And I'll do the same for this one....ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ­ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ­ZZZZZZZZ

  • perfecta maravillosa canción gracias la versión es triste y hermosa THANK YOU a very beautiful and sad versión.....

  • I love that song

  • Axl is not dead you idiot

  • @tupayaso

    he is to me...

  • I liked it till he started to sing..

  • fails to have the impact of the original and lacks the originality of Taken By Trees' version .

  • i like this cover. of course its not as good as the original, i love taken by trees version and now this one, theyre both good.

  • George18264 Agreed :)

  • This songs big enough to take all versions

  • Love it til he starts singin. Hes singin it too low, i could of dun a bettr job tbh

  • pls wake me up when its over................ -.-

  • how?

  • Can we stop arguing over this and the Taken by Trees version and just all admit that they're both better than the Linkin park, Kelly Clarkson, and Sheryl Crow covers?

  • Comment removed

  • I liked it until he started to sing..

  • Pretty cool

    4/5

  • cant decide which version i prefer.. taken by trees, this or even guns and roses version. i suppose there all very different so i cant really compare them :)

  • OMFG That's horrible! It's shows how to destroy one of the greatest song!

  • wtf u on about?

  • taken by trees... hands down.

    of course after the original, that is.....

  • I LIKE UR VERSION, VEY VERY GOOD, AND RELAX AND MORE ROMANTIC VERSION....ITS GREAT !!!!!!!! ;p

  • I just heard the Taken by Trees version the other day in a pet store and love it also. Both versions are awesome.

  • Absolute wank!

  • esta vercion esta machin

  • Far better than the dismal Taken by Trees dirge. Dreampoppy.

  • MY GOD - how boring is that?!?!!
