Title: Estranged Post by: Moonlight J on December 22, 2009, 10:01:34 AM Now I could be wrong, but is it possible Axl has a thing about numbers? Could this be why Estranged is such an elusive live animal?
For example: "Old at heart, but I'm only 47...." would probably sound better if he was 48, no? This could be the year, South American fans! Title: Re: Estranged Post by: Genesis on December 22, 2009, 12:41:46 PM No.
Title: Re: Estranged Post by: TomFriend on December 27, 2009, 07:37:01 PM I would imagine that the facts that Estranged isn't a particularly well known song (so no obligation to play it), difficult vocally, difficult musically, and takes up a lot of time had more to do with its lack of plays. Probably my personal favourite GNR song, all the same.
Title: Re: Estranged Post by: Ashba Rocks on December 28, 2009, 08:53:03 AM I'm sure i remeber some one posting that Axl doesnt want to play the song, i could be wrong but i think i remeber something being said that he didnt want to play it without slash...
like i said, i could be wrong Title: Re: Estranged Post by: CheapJon on December 28, 2009, 09:07:46 AM I'm sure i remeber some one posting that Axl doesnt want to play the song, i could be wrong but i think i remeber something being said that he didnt want to play it without slash... here's from the axl chat last yearlike i said, i could be wrong Quote Axl: Havin' a bit of trouble posting replies. Interrupted connection and all that. I'm pretty sure the questions were similar to "what's your favorite song on CD", Would you play any "new old" songs in the future from UYI, "what does "ok nevermind" mean in the blues from RIR 2001?" "do you listen to any underground hiphop?" "do you use PC or mac?"Here's some answers. Into Sorry musically most rt now. Estranged and Civil War probably somewhere. I probably just fucked the song up, wish it had deeper meaning. Sometimes but not underground! PC but I use both. my answer to the thread starter is no, if so then he'd only be playing it in 1990, 2000, 2010 and so on.. so it has nothin to do with numbers/age Title: Re: Estranged Post by: Ashba Rocks on December 28, 2009, 09:09:30 AM i must have dreamt mine it then lol
Title: Re: Estranged Post by: AxlsMainMan on December 28, 2009, 11:59:48 AM I seem to recall Axl describing some hesitance at performing songs like Don't Cry and Estranged back in 2001/2002 as well.
Obviously, and thankfully, that's changed :smoking: Title: Re: Estranged Post by: Ashba Rocks on December 28, 2009, 12:04:43 PM I seem to recall Axl describing some hesitance at performing songs like Don't Cry and Estranged back in 2001/2002 as well. Obviously, and thankfully, that's changed :smoking: at least im not the only one lol. well dont cry has been performed, lets hope estranged will be at some point, i would be really intrested to see how the band could pull it off, and what (if any) new bits would be added to it Title: Re: Estranged Post by: Jeramy on January 29, 2010, 01:51:36 AM that's ironic, i was thinking the same thing earlier today about him saying, 'im only 48'
Title: Re: Estranged Post by: superstarmc on February 23, 2010, 09:38:03 PM There are so many good songs on the illusion albums that would sound awesome in 2010. Particulary estranged and civil war. Dead horse, perfect crime, locomotive, breakdown and coma.

This could be the year, South American fans! yep.....as now he is 48! SOUTH AMERICA BE PREPARED FOR ESTRANGED!!! ;D Title: Re: Estranged Post by: cyalex on February 24, 2010, 03:35:09 PM Axl no only has to change the "28" part but also the "I'm much too young" as it does no make any sense with "48" :hihi:
Maybe He could replace it with "I'm not that old to let love breake my heart" ;D Title: Re: Estranged Post by: jacdaniel on February 25, 2010, 08:45:50 AM Quote I'm sure i remeber some one posting that Axl doesnt want to play the song, i could be wrong but i think i remeber something being said that he didnt want to play it without slash... I don't think Axl gives a fuck about Slash or any of his work in GNR at all. He'll do Estranged if he wants to when he wants to.

He'll do Estranged if he wants to when he wants to. i think on this occasion he does give a fuck, coz that was a really heavy song for him and slash came up with that riff, i dont believe all the "bad blood" thats between them would change the fact that song means alot to him and he cannot ignore slash's part in that song, otherwise i think he would have played it already, you cant say its not one of there greatest hits! |
