I'd like to hear the reasoning for the change of name - The Blues is a much better title for this song imo.

Love the song though, always been one of my favourites!

Noticably improved from the leak, the new intro and outro is orgasmic. The first killer track

10/10

Brilliant arrangements, touching lyrics, some of the most satisfying vocals on CD, finck's best solo on the album, killer ending that will make your hairs stand on end and radio friendly.

For several years this was my favorite track of the six new ones (the ones played at Rio and Vegas).  Still love it.  Glad they brought the electric guitars back in the intro, but then why'd they drop the drums in the intro?!?  I'll listen to both this and the demo equally I think.  Robin's best guitar solo in my opinion.

In my opinion, the song has alot of what "November Rain" and "Yesterdays had, in the sense that it utilizes that Elton John-inspired songwriting. Chinese Democracy's best moments are on the ballads, which makes Axl GNR more of a band geared toward singles. It attempts to reveal that Axl can pull something off alone. The solos on most of the album are not the solos that Slash performed. Slash was capable of performing some of the best guitar solos of the 1980s, better than Eddie Van Halen's. These guys are better off, as rhythm guitarists. This solo is alright. This song is good.

Anybody know that Chinese Democracy is a trilogy? Sebastian Bach said so. That means that Axl has three chances to screw up. Great. The history of GNR is going down the drain.

In the CD booklet, they skipped a line and flubbed the next one...

HAS COST MORE THAN IT SHOULD FOR ME
WHAT I thought was true before.. etc.

So glad they added the lyrics for the new ending though!
