Title: Eddie Trunk Post by: Bostonrose on June 07, 2006, 03:17:53 PM Did anyone hear Axl say this on the Eddie Trunk interview
Axl Rose originally pitched the video concept (which was later to be rejected) of "Sweet Child O'Mine" to be about an Asian women who brings a child into a foreign land, only for it later to be found that the baby was dead and filled with drugs (in an attempt at drug trafficking). This fact was revealed in a surprise interview Axl Rose did on Eddie Trunk Rocks, in May 2006. Title: Re: Eddie Trunk Post by: busngabb on June 07, 2006, 03:22:47 PM Yeah he said it. A pretty sick video that would have made.
I think it would have completely changed the way the song was thought about. No longer would it be a happy song, like a walk in the park. Title: Re: Eddie Trunk Post by: GunsN'Gravy on June 07, 2006, 03:24:47 PM It seems like Axl was going for the ol' gallows humor with that, but maybe not.

This fact was revealed in a surprise interview Axl Rose did on Eddie Trunk Rocks, in May 2006. He left Marilyn Manson in charge to express it in the video of his version of "personal jesus", 17 years later. Well, manson's baby was filled with money... :yes: Title: Re: Eddie Trunk Post by: HoldenCaulfield on June 07, 2006, 04:53:44 PM Yeah, he kept saying that he was dead serious and whatnot, but I really doubt it ;)
Title: Re: Eddie Trunk Post by: SINSHINE on June 07, 2006, 05:26:19 PM I heard that comment, however, I don't remember him saying that it was a 'dead baby' carrying the drugs, rather the idea of a mother holding what appeared to be a baby in a blanket that was actually filled with drugs. Correct me if I'm wrong, though.
Title: Re: Eddie Trunk Post by: nycangel on June 07, 2006, 05:27:40 PM yea i dont think he was that serious, i think he was messing with us, to see how many people would start taking it serisouly and start talking about it,
or... he was telling the truth, afterall he is axl, noone ever really knows whats going on with him Title: Re: Eddie Trunk Post by: cobalt on June 07, 2006, 05:43:25 PM How would that even fit with the song? I think he was kidding...
Title: Re: Eddie Trunk Post by: darkmonth on June 07, 2006, 06:53:23 PM Yeah he said it. A pretty sick video that would have made. I think it would have completely changed the way the song was thought about. No longer would it be a happy song, like a walk in the park. lol ... did you just quote Axl from Tokyo when he said about Estranged being kinda like a walk in the park? LOL. Funny.
