Here Today... Gone To Hell!

I don?t understand why a lot of people dislike "Bad Apples". It?s got a good text and it rocks! I would put it in the same category as "Anything Goes" - not a hit - but definitely a good rocker. And it is light years better than "My World". For those of you who don?t like it, try to give it a chance again. :)

I think it's much better than Anything Goes. It's a damned good song with an amazing guitar solo, but the vocal melodies are weak  :( That's why a lot of people dislike it.

I used to skip it... ten years ago.
I haven't skipped it in a real while.  8) 8) 8)

You live and learn...

I have a soft spot for "Bad Apples", since it was the first original song off the UYI twins that I heard.  The South Florida rock station I used to listen to had received a demo of it in early 1991 and gave it airplay several times before being ordered to cease and desist, and I happened to get it on tape.  It was different from the final in that Dizzy's piano wasn't present yet, and it started with a "1,2,1,2,3,4.."
    It was exciting to hear it on the radio becasue it meant that stuff was being done and there was new music somewhere out there...I used to bring the tape to a local independent music store and they would play it over their sound system.  Brings back good memories.

Personally, i really dig that song. ;D

In fact, I like the song very much. I think it's different and original. I really can't see what's wrong with it or with the vocals. The song is very good and it deserves an appropriate place in the GN'R history.  : ok:

It a really great rock n`roll number and especially the solo kicks ass

I like this song, but it's in the bottom category of GNR songs. Anyhting Goes is much better, but the solo in Bad Apples is one of the best of slash's

It rocks!
Great Solo, cool kick-ass lyrics!  :beer:

I Love the lyrics : ok:

I love the song.. in fact i love it sooo much i tattoed the logo from the old Bad Apples single on my forarm... about 8 inches high.. it looks fucking bad ass and alot of people ask me what the fuck it is from....

yeh, i don't get y people don't like it, i wouldn't say it was great or anythin, but its ok. oh and anythings better than 'my world'...

i like that song, it isnt my favorite, but i do like listening to it. When i first got the cds, i would listen to all  the songs over and over again in order. when i do that, i just seem to like all the songs, so i never skip it, cause i like all the songs, every single one.

p.s. the solo and lyrics rock  :peace:

I like the song ok, catchy. It has a rockabilly sound. Maybe it was written at the same time/session as Too Much too soon

I always loved Bad Apples.  It's a really cool song.  The only thing that bugs me is the production.  The clarity and volume of the lyrics is not where it should be. 

yeah, i agree. it's a bloody good and underrated song in my opinion :yes:

I wonder why they played live only once? It's a kick ass rock song, much better than Bad Obsession, RNDTH, Dead Horse etc.

I liked it the first time i heard it, gotta a funky sound to it, especially the bassline  :drool:

Good song...one of those songs that if another band released it it would be a classic, but with GN'R it kinda gets lost in the shuffle as another really good song.

I only like the chorus... Hmmm, have to hear it better

the solo of bad apples rox. the lyrix r good and funky. but theres something a litl perfect. its beta than anything goes but theres sumthing a litl missing.
