breakdown
« on: June 30, 2008, 11:34:57 AM »
the song breakdown on use your illusion 2 is an amazing song. you hear very little about songs like breakdown or 14 years, and they never get air play on any of the radio stations, its always the same songs that have always been played and talked about.

yeah breakdown rocks, 14 years too great songs they should get more airplay but they never will simple as i think with 14 years its that whole axl vs. izzy thing in the eyes of the general public axl is the better lyricist/vocalist

There's so many songs from UYI 1+2 that don't get the recognition they deserve. Sometimes think there should have been a gap between the two albums.

They could of released a few more singles if they spaced out the two albums.

I love "Pretty Tied Up". But it's hard to beat "Coma".

Breakdown is definately an underated gem in the GNR catalogue, but they released 8  songs from the UYI records overall over the tour, so it would have been over-kill to release any more

Nope,Civil War is my favourite followed by One in a million,Nightrain and Hair of the dog. :tongue:

Just because someone doesn't like Breakdown doesn't mean that he doesn't like other non-commercial gnr songs....
