Post by: jarmo on October 02, 2004, 10:12:20 AM Izzy wrote the lyrics for "You Could Be Mine" about an ex-girlfriend of his. I find that hard to believe. I mean, Izzy wanted to add a line form an Elton John song? I suspect Axl had something to do with the lyrics too..... /jarmo Title: Re: Stephanie's question do's any one know who "you could be mine" was based on?

I had always thought Axl wrote those lyrics, but many people on this board have said the same thing I just said. Apparently, Axl said onstage once that Izzy wrote the lyrics about his ex-girlfriend, though Axl may have contributed some also.

I'm pretty sure Axl had something to do with the lyrics but the chorus is very Izzy, "With your bitch slap rappin' and your cocaine tongue" is very reminiscent of "Double talkin' jive get the money motherfucker" Edit: 11.15.02 - Fargodome, Fargo, ND opening acts: CKY, Mix Master Mike attendance: 6,575 set: Welcome To The Jungle, It's So Easy, Mr. Brownstone, Live And Let Die, Think About You, Knockin' On Heaven's Door, You Could Be Mine, Sweet Child O' Mine, Out Ta Get Me, Guitar Solo [Buckethead], Piano Solo, November Rain, Rocket Queen, Madagascar, The Blues, Chinese Democracy, Patience, My Michelle, Nightrain encore: Guitar Solo [Robin], Paradise City audio/video recording?: audio notes: GN'R hit the stage around 10:08 p.m., with Axl wearing a University of North Dakota white Sioux jersey.
