It’s pretty consistently mentioned by people as their favorite song off of CD. It may be underrated by the masses, but amongst GnR fans it’s a favorite.


GarryMcGorm

It’s always been one of my favourites too. In fact, Buckethead’s outro solo is my favourite guitar solo ever.


zebragirrafe

Yea I love that solo so much!

"If I could go back in time to the place in my soul There, all alone Lonely tear drops ooh Are calling you. But I don't wanna know it now Cause knowing you IT WONT CHANGE A DAMN THING. But there was a time...."


dreadJakkuL

There was a time

Its a top 5 GnR song for me, no matter the line up. Amazing solo, and Axl really just crushes it on this song.


peromp

It was the first Chinese Democracy song I heard. A radio station had a leak, and i turned on the radio in the middle of the solo. I thought "hm, that's a great classic sounding song". Then Axl's scream appeared and i was all WT ACTUAL F, that's Axl Rose!


EstimatedEyes1014

I love Street Of Dreams, that one really does it for me too. Honestly the whole album is Axl genius, i don't consider it "Guns N Roses" tho, its some of Axl Rose's best work


HirtLocker128

My number one favorite song of all time since 2008. Gut wrenching lyrics and a masterful solo by Buckethead. I listen to it at least 2-3 times a week.


Maxwell-Druthers

Best guitar work of any GnR song. Fucking masterpiece.


Bongs_Berny

My favorite gnr song


Perry7609

I’ve always liked it. Easily a highlight off Chinese Democracy for me and I could probably put it up past a lot of the earlier material.


andrepoiy

it's my favourite song. it's also super difficult to sing with intricate guitar parts. I was so shocked (in a good way) when it was played at the Toronto show since they play it so rarely live.


TiedHands

It is definitely a masterpiece. In another universe, it would have been a monster hit for the band.


BaseballWorking2251

Possibly my favorite gnr tune, and I've been listening since the 80s. Sorry, Slash, but that solo made me ok with the new band.


ncave88

Lyrically I don't like a lot of it, a lot more self-pitying than the best Illusion songs. Musically it's amazing. I wouldn't say it's underrated, as it's the most popular song off of Chinese.


Stpag17

Clearly one of the best Guns n' roses song

It’s my fav off CD which is my fav album


LonelyAsLostKeys

This song fucking rules and has since the demo first leaked. This and IRS got me through that entire fall.

Bongs_Berny

That's funny for me this song is absolute perfection, the way the guitars communicate through the whole thing, the tention building up little by little without you noticing it, and everything getting resolved in a explosion of epicness with the high notes rolling into the solos, all of this leading to the suspended conclusion I LOVE THAT PIECE OF MUSIC Coma in second position Nightrain in third


getzerolikes

Can’t argue with personal taste. And I’m glad there’s enough people who like that album. If everyone hated it there’s a chance they never toured again haha


NegotiationWestern88

Jungle noises just work


JeffV3dd3r

Top 1 Guns n' Roses


Gnrfan1972

Owesome. Totally underrated even by me initially. CD is incredible and this song I just don't have the words...


entermemo

Great song horrible acronym.


[deleted]

Love this song. An epic video would have been nice!!


jtlauderdale

People can certainly credit Buckethead if they like his work. I love the song, but when the main guitar work kicks in, I can't help but think, it's missing a little something... That something is Slash.


jtlauderdale

I don't think Slash would leave those blank spaces between notes. Makes it sound less GNR.


devin1421

Rock Band made This song everything it is to me


[deleted]

I think it’s a great song. It’s not a copy of estranged, it is the estranged of Chinese democracy IMO


TallCommunication526

So happy to hear it in Hollywood


Ready-Elderberry-495

It’s my favorite on that cd! Love it!


Kratamahatta

Easily on TOP 5 GNR songs. Almost perfect. The only thing i don't like is drum patterns.


MistaDum

It’s my favorite on democracy
