The SONG shines through.
Muddeled sonicly & visually~
THIS version hints at Manson (?),
& suicide. The guitarsolo is unfocussed, the voice stays at same intensity throughout...
I'll take TR take on MOOGY composition any day...........RR

Least I forget ~
Rick Derringer solo on "original"
is concise & emotionally on pitch with the piece. Technicly a handful
& fantastic lesson for anyone who wishes to grasp the best of the instrument's magic. Thanks to Mr.
Derringer for dropping by that day !..............RR

Hi, I'm the guy that made both the mix and the video, and I just wanted to let you know that I'm very appreciative of the original composition, and of Todd's work. The GNR mix in this video is not what Axl or GNR intended, but just my personal mix. The guitars, drums, etc. were all a bunch of additions by a crazy fan. The song - as played live by Axl and Slash in the early 90's - was just piano, voice and a simple guitar solo. Axl was very respectful of the original. This mess of a mix is just a fan mix with a million things added to make it sound more like a GNR song, so please don't take offense to it. The video was one of my first attempts, and I hope it doesn't take away from the message of the music. My respects to Todd and his extraordinary work......"evader"
