For anyone that cares, a clip from 'Coma' was used on BBC 1's Top Gear last night.

From memory, it was when they were introducing the new Ford GT40.

I just can't get into Coma...I've listened to others' opinions on here and gave it man chances but I can't see it being even in the top 10 of GnR songs.

Lyircally, it is probably number 1, simply brilliant. Musically though, its good in the first half of the song. I know everyone says it has an amazing ending but I disagree. This song could have been so much more in my opinion. What is the point of having such genius lyrics if they are rambled and muttered up to the point where noone can understand them. Also, I know given its subject matter, maybe the intention was to make it sound chaotic, but all the melody was sucked out of it by the end...and it just sounds like some guy talking really fast...except mumbling.

By the way...that one line "Please understand me" is probably one of the greatest sounding parts from the GnR catalogue, imo. It's beautiful and haunting at the same time...from that point onward, the song just gets worse. I hope I can change my mind and appreciate this song more.

'Coma' is the absolute most brilliant song ever written, IMO.

The way Axl delivers the ending in that song is absolutely mind blowing.....
