Title: Grand Funk Railroad "Bad Time"......recognize it? Post by: Naltav on December 18, 2006, 05:25:29 PM I just recently discovered this: A small clip of the song Bad Time.
Grand Funk Railroad "Bad Time": http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=10:3sbsa9rgq238 Recognise it? :) I've allways wondered where the acapella-bit Axl used to do before SCOM on the Illusion-tour, were from. Now I know! : ok: Title: Re: Grand Funk Railroad "Bad Time"......recognize it? Post by: Ignatius on December 18, 2006, 06:10:57 PM The Jayhawks did a cover too...I have it somewhere.? Highly recommended.
The intro Axl used before SCOM used to be one of my highlights from any show from that era. That intro fit so well with Sweet Child...later in that tour, Axl would cover Elton John "The One"...not as good though. Title: Re: Grand Funk Railroad "Bad Time"......recognize it? Post by: burnz007 on December 18, 2006, 06:14:05 PM Interesting... the beginning of the SCOM intro is from a Queen song called "Sail Away Sweet Sister"... I had always assumed the rest of it was too... but as you just pointed out it's not.
Thanks ! :smoking: Title: Re: Grand Funk Railroad "Bad Time"......recognize it? Post by: gokken on December 18, 2006, 06:15:55 PM Haha coool! Thanks!!

http://www.sing365.com/music/lyric.nsf/Sail-Away-Sweet-Sister-lyrics-Guns-N'-Roses/DB757168EA9A743948256EA80010C6C9 it doesn't mention "Bad Time"... but now we know it's both: Sail Away Sweet Sister Lyrics - GNR Sail away sweet sister Sail across the sea Maybe you'll find somebody That will love you half as much as me My heart is always with you No matter what you do So sail away sweet sister Cause I'll always be in love with you But let her be somebody else's queen I don't want to know about you Cuz too many others know what I mean And that's why I got to live without you I'm in love with a girl I'm talkin' about I'm in love with a girl That I can't live without I'm in love but it feels like I'm livin' it out I'm in love but I must have picked a Bad Time To be in love Title: Re: Grand Funk Railroad "Bad Time"......recognize it?

Title: Re: Grand Funk Railroad "Bad Time"......recognize it? Post by: estebanf on December 18, 2006, 06:22:22 PM ''Sail Away Sweet Sister'' is in included in what I consider the best Queen album: ''The Game'', 1980.
Brian May wrote that song. Amazing, but underrated Queen song. Title: Re: Grand Funk Railroad "Bad Time"......recognize it?

Post a clip if you got.... :beer: Yeah, I discovered The Jayhawks' version first when I got hooked on the Rainy Day Music-album. Went back and descovered Bad Time on the Tomorrow The Green Grass-album then did som research and found out that it's originally and GFR song... But I also recommend the Jayhawks' version. It's better! : ok: PS: Check out "Rainy Day Music" by The Jayhawks. Songwriting at it's best!! (oops, sorry! I mean next best!!!) ::) Produced by Rick Rubin.....
