My favourite tends to differ a little bit over time, but as of now I voted for Estranged.

Strong contenders are Civil War, Coma, Dead Horse and 14 Years.

Tough call....
Perfect Crime because it was the openr to the 1st GN'R concert I attended..You Could Be Mine, because it's sooo classic..Locomotive because it's sp bad ass w/ great lyrics..Coma because GN'R have never been so heavy N' 8 minutes w/o a repeating chorus, Breakdown because it's a lyrical masterpiece, I could go on, I can't decide.....

Title: Re: Guitar World Poll: Your Favourite UYI Song
Post by: AtariLegend on August 05, 2011, 01:19:37 AM
I voted Estranged.

Coma, then November rain would be 2nd and 3rd for me.

Man they're all so great but I'll have to go with Don't Cry.


Title: Re: Guitar World Poll: Your Favourite UYI Song
Post by: Loaded NightraiN on August 06, 2011, 08:41:19 AM
Wonder why they only have one Don't Cry? They are not the same song


Title: Re: Guitar World Poll: Your Favourite UYI Song
Post by: Estranged#9 on August 07, 2011, 11:56:32 AM

The alternative version is the only Gn'R song that I can't listen to, the one that always gets skipped, the original is perfection :love: to me and as such I don't want to tarnish that view of one of the song's I want playing at my funeral for those that I leave behind... The other two, SCOM dedicated to my kids and Think about you for my wife and how we've lived our lives

I had to go for Coma.  Its nice to see Coma do so well.  (currently 3rd).

Civil War, YCBM, Dont Cry, November Rain, Dead Horse and Double Talkin Jive all deserve a mention too.

Never being that into Estranged myself... looks like im alone there.   :)

Estranged is holding in there, But its down a few points

I really hope it wins... May just be what we need to get it played live in concert this year!!

It changes day to day..week to week..year to year...

At the moment I'll go with..

1. Locomotive
2. Coma
3. 14 Years

Other favs include..

Pretty Tied Up
Breakdown
Estranged
Dust N' Bones


and if the live version of Double Talkin Jive was on the cd I would vote for it..I love the energy the band had when they played it live

That is tough, as I love many of them.  Voted for Coma, though.

How did "My World" come in 18th?  And how is "Bad Apples" last?  And "Get In The Ring" number TWO?  Strange list.


Title: Re: Guitar World Poll: Your Favourite UYI Song
Post by: Layflats on September 06, 2011, 12:52:51 PM
CIVIL WAR

Easy answer. 'Don't Cry'.


Title: Re: Guitar World Poll: Your Favourite UYI Song
Post by: Kaleigh on September 07, 2011, 10:21:22 PM
It'll always be Coma for me, but second and third place would probably go to Don't Damn Me and Locomotive.

It's apparent that people were taking the piss out of this poll with the rankings of the songs.  But "Estranged" coming in at #1 is a legit pick and deserves to be. The rest of the list I can't put much faith in regarding its legitimacy amongst true G N' R fans.

The whole poll was/is stupid. If you looked at all the comments on there they were all from people trying to be funny and all thinking their comments/opinions were original; all just taking the piss out of the albums and Axl, blah blah blah. There was no way that poll was ever going to be anything close to legit. What they should have done was post it here at HTGTH, The G N' R Bar and/ or some of the other top G N' R fan boards and get their answers there. Would have seen a much more accurate poll.

I guess it is cool though the albums are getting their due attention for their 20th year in existence. Can't believe it will be 20 years. Man, makes me feel old. Would be awesome if Axl and the boys played some back wall material from them during these upcoming shows.
