sad but true !copy stuff

A special combination of musical talent. I have loved the album for such a long time. But the overwhelming contribution of Simon Binks' riffs only dawned on me recently. Australia's best ever lead guitarist? I think he must be close to it. Australia's wealthiest guitarist? No. But my god he has given us with some diamonds and the amount of daily joy he has given to music listeners like me is impossible to measure.

best part of this song

[KG84C]

Guns N Roses ripped this on off, Crawl were around long before them, and better musicians.

[TOWIEONLINE]

@KG84C Simon would LOVE to read that.... :)

This song came out 6yrs b4 sweet child of mine,,,,,,Aussie artist aint bad

recently Men At Work lost in court because " Land Down Under" borrowed what seemed like a tune from a childs song called " Kookabara sits in the old Gum Tree" ( personally I couldnt hear what they were on about, but the kids song writer won in court ).. Now that I listen to THIS song by Aussie Crawl, there is NO DOUBT its like Sweet Child O' Mine".. I think they'd win in a flash in court. Lots of money to be made if they do! I say go for it.

@cunnamullafalla hang on mate,im hearing what you say about the sweet child of mine riff [first time id noticed].but australian crawl did this about 7 years before the gunners

[cunnamullafalla]

@Sirocco97 Im SO Sorry Sirocco, I just re-read my post and can see I've got the WRONG message out there. My point is Australian Crawl SHOULD take G&R to court as I feel they would win hands down. In fact since writing this post earlier today I AGAIN listened and was able to overlay the classic Guitar intro that is the Signiture of Sweet Child of Mine over the Aust Crawl original and it fits PERFECT.. So Im saying, Aust Crawl SHOULD take them to court. THEY WOULD WIN!. Again sorry about the mixup

[Sirocco97]

@cunnamullafalla dont worry about it champ ,if your not from australia you probably wouldnt know when this song was written ,and as for the gunners ripping them off, .it must be getting hard to write a piece of music, that doesnt sound like something else

[colorado5a2]

I see a problem.

People thinkin´ about bad music.

Sweet Child O´Mine is a bad song, Slash is a terrible player.

Australian Crawl is cool because of the combo of matching voices, good guitar players and pedestrian riffs. Not awesome, but a better combo than GNR, please...

[nickynoo75]

this song is not on the best of cd I bought

[Sirocco97]

@nickynoo75 it should be its a classic
