    this is the song that they played at my mate's funeral after he died, but I never was at the actual burial, because at the time, & had never been to a funeral before, I was living in a kids refuge at the time & I had to walk to the church, & I will never ever forget that because & I didn't realise that the church service was only the first part of the funeral, but the only thing that I couldn't get over was that for my mates funeral which I could not believe was that the herse number plate was 666, & I thought that that was in such poor taste, wether anyone was suspicious or not of the number 666, it still had no place for itself at the funeral of a 17 year old kid, & then after the church service I walked back to my refuge in penrith in tears, only to hear a few days later that they went on to the cemetery for his burial, which I was told was where they played "Don't Cry". & because my friend whom died had only just recently moved into his first place away from home, some assholes, that must have found out about it somehow, broke in to his place where he was living & ransacked the place, like a pack of low life scum, so that after my friends parents found out that their son died, they had to deal with picking up the pieces literally from a broken place, as well as their own broken hearts, & the last time I had seen my friend Aaron, I'd had an argument with him that was my fault, & mentally that really, hit me very hard because you just never know,,, then years later when I went to gaol, I had the most realistic dream that came to me of my friend asking me why I was so upset & so I told him, but he just laughed & said mate it's all right, I'm not dead brother, it's all good mate, I'm more alive than anything! that is when I had my one & only conversation with a friend whom had passed away, even though it was years later, & was a dream, "I knew that my friend thought enough about me to let me know that everything was all right", he gave me closure that dream was as real as every waking day, & even though I regretted our last time we met up & I had an argument with my friend that he let me know that everything was allright, I miss my friend Aaron.😔

      Those box drawers seemed really crappy. Rings in one and then the same exact things again but as pins? Really? Not even a different design? And then a bunch of cheap replica stuff that cost them ZERO to manufacture. The music stuff is great but the extras are lame for that amount of money.

I missed them on the American leg of Not in This Lifetime, I was sick (MTBI) and probably would have done more damage to my brain. So bummed! So here’s to hoping for new music!

    I freaking love GR now.. I was too young to appreciate it when they were popular back in the late 80s early 90's! So I love being able to hear back stories of the songs and how they were created from romances that happened to the band members! I actually hadn't even thought about Axl Rose up until I seen him at Lisa Marie Presley's memorial service! I was shocked first of all that him and Lisa Marie knew each other but then he started singing and I was like that does not look like Axl.. NOR did it sound like Axl Rose! Bless his heart I felt so bad for him! He has definitely lost his voice.. but he got his ass up there and did it anyways for his friend LMP! So that's when I started being fascinated with Axl and wanted to know everything especially back when they were popular I never had a chance to appreciate what a badass they actually were, and still are even if time has made them look and sound totally! I had no idea Axel had such a horrible childhood! He seems so much more happy now that he has worked through his childhood issues! I honestly thought that the drummer Steve Adler had died from a heroin overdose.. I was so thrilled when I found out that he is still very much live and well! By the way thank you so much for this channel.. very interesting 👌❤️

  • @lueyteledeluxe7457
    @lueyteledeluxe7457 Год назад

    Don't Cry is my favourite G'n'R ballad.
    ... actually, second to just one killer ballad, but it's not its' own song, it's an outro. I'm talking about the last part of Rocket Queen, of course.
    It's one of the very first songs I ever learned on guitar, chord progressions, intro fingerpicking part, and, of course, the epic solo.
    It was Don't Cry... Paradise City ( chords, riffs, lead hook, but not the actual solo)... Knocking on Heaven's Door (all 3× chords 😌...and those killer, oh-so-simple solos) ...In a Darkened Room (Skid Row - chords + lead hook + solo) ...Monkey Business (riffs + chord/riffs, but no solo. I play it now, tbo...) ...AND.... (🎺 BWOMP Bwer-bwer-Brerrrrrr!!🎶) Little Wing (Skid Row version. Intro clean (with a hair of grit) ...chords.. + solo.
    → Little Wing quickly became my go-to thing to play whenever I picked up a guitar in front of anyone. It impresses people easy - both non muso's, aswell as muso's - not just guitar players.
    And everyone has the tune stored back in their head...in the nostalgia part of the brain!
    And, unlike Stairway + Wonderwall.. it's approved of by other guitar players. We all play it our own way...have our own little take on it.
    I still go yo it often, 30 years later ... ☺️.

      Well, not if he actually used his brain, and embarked on using the authenticity and popularity of this channel to its' full potential, rather than just recite a load of so-called 'facts' or anecdotal stuff that's taken from televised interviews or lifted from their auto-biographies / official biographies, and then compiled into a short video...I'm not in anyway knocking the channel, I like the fella, but I've watched lots on here, including the interviews with Alan Niven for example...and there's nothing new being told really....and some of the questions weren't gonna give us anything new...why not use the authenticity of the channel, and its' growing popularity, and try to get Axl on here, and the others...Axl, being the most elusive, would be great, and Axl, knowing that this guy is genuine, and isn't gonna manipulate him in anyway, I really believe Axl would grant this fella an interview over show sycophantic talk show host whose knowledge of Axl and Guns goes about as far as Sweet Child and November Rain...Bet as soon as Axl hears that Alan Niven has been on, he'd be interested...why not...this channel will no doubt be known by GNR...who deserves some of Axl's time... a genuine, and loyal, life-long, enthusiastic and passionate fan of GNR and Axl, or some 'famous', and fawning, two-faced, talk show host that doesn't give two fucks about Axl or GNR... cares only for his shows ratings and his level of fame... I honestly think Axl would do it...it's genuine, and low-key...imagine that...all those years of reticence and then we get, as fans, Axl just being Axl. Be great.

      Age 12, having 4 cassettes was a big deal as my pocket money was not very high.
      Although, I had bank accounts with money in. So maybe I was quite wealthy really.

      Right !! It's Josh Richman, I'd really love to see GN'R Central do an interview with Josh. He seemed so cool in the Don't Cry Makin' Fuckin' Videos Part I video. I got the feeling that Axl genuinely liked Richman. I've always wondered whatever happened to the girls in the video too. You had Susan London, Axl's psychiatrist in the video, she was so hot and I wonder where she is these days. Then theirs the beautiful brunette that slammed a beer bottle on Duff's Bass backstage, I can't think of her name at the moment hmm...then u had Bridgette who rode with Slash in the car crash scene, lol. She was only 17 when she done the video and Omg she was Hot as Hell 🔥😍 I even heard Slash & Andy Morahan make comments on her tits, lol. She had the sexiest voice :) I want a know some NEW INFO I DONT KNOW !! Lol. I've heard EVERYTHING before that GN'R Central or anyone else ever post, smh.

    Hello. That's also my favourite. Don't You Cry Tonight. I thought it was called.
    I bought. Use Your Illusion 2. My friend claimed to have Use Your Illusion 1. But, I never got a chance to listen to it.
    Because he's boring. Kept repeating the same story over and over. Like his boring, married parents who had 3 kids.
    My dad, was an innovator, too intelligent to get interested by routine work. but only had two children like me. But, I stitched up my friend by recommending Geography. A trick, I played on boring people to destroy them. Was to give them wrong information. So, they had to get out more.
    Unfortunately, my sister. Went, on to complete a Geographical Degree. A subject which has destroyed our family.
    However maybe because it was on both records. Why, I liked that record.
    However my pal never came out and played especially. After I pretended to break his back. While we were playing WWF Wrestling. I had way too much respect for that organisation and recommend Mud Wrestling as a safer alternative to WWF, or WWE rules Wrestling.
    A good consideration for any premises not wanting to get sued for major damages.
    Dam. And insurance. Dam, life is too complicated as a Sole Trader!
    We got to team up folks?
    And, back breaking is well behind me now.
    I can't do the.
    TV Licence.
    The Insurance.
    Employers Liability.
    Public Liability Insurance.
    Possessions.
    House Contents Insurance.
    House Insurance.
    On my own. At least I got National Insurance, right?
    Sales? Be nice to get a sale. Sure. One item? £1 ? You want to browse for 1/2 an hour and. Then leave with my money?
    Sure, sure. Thank you! Come again! ruclips.net/video/GthC4WIuIxU/видео.html
    He pretended to be really hurt. And went away.
    Thank goodness my mum, did not care.
    Hands off Axle Rose? He is my future husband!
    Do you think, Slash driving that woman off a cliff, was a homosexual male thing? So Slash could have Axle. He killed his, girlfriend through jealousy?
    The jealousy of Axle being such a flirtatious singer. Always out there showing off, has prevented. Any serious relationship forming. Or, the band have an attention span of a goldfish.
    Limited actual charisma, can't sustain relationships. Don't have the, inclination to hire escorts with all that money.
    Surely Axle Rose might be able to afford a tribe of 20 children. With these gig tickets like £90 folks here in Tottenham, England.
    Maybe it's simply a trick and like only The Queen has a ticket and everyone else got a discount. Through tax credits?
    But if Guns and Roses get a slice of the gate takings, they must be millionaires umteen times over.
