I really love VR but never compare anything about any of their songs to a masterpiece like Coma.

this song isnt anywhere near that caliber of a song in any way shape or form.

my fault I misunderstood.

watching the video and hearing the song a couple of times im starting to really like it, I hated it when i first heard it but I hated CB when I first heard it.

it will definitely grow on me even more and I like it. its cool

and i cant wait to go watch Fantastic Four!

Well, Gn'R had a lot of time to come up with Coma. They added it to their third album mind you even though it was composed years before, me thinks. Although I doubt VR would try a epic like coma. They are missing a key ingredient in Izzy. ?Dave just doesn't have the personality. Scott could probably handle something like that. But it would take work. Scott isn't known for his lyrics like Axl. So, it could happen. they would have to work on something like that... this song is still twenty times better then anything around today.

Am I the only one to think that Slash duff and matt, without Axl, have "nothing special" as a band?


mate, you're opinion matters no more than anyone elses... and believe me... if I had the chance to see either Velvet Revolver or NewGnR, I take VR ANY day.? Slash is my favorite musician of all time, and Axl comes no where near close.

See?? What you're doing is hoping that everyone will think you're right... but in fact, you're talking out of your ass.? VR have at least sold a few million records now... Axl's sold shit.? Another thing is that, ask any Stone Temple Pilots fan and you'll find that in fact, they'll likely tell you that Scott is the something special for them, and again, Axl wont come close.? Opinions.? Not worth shit to someone who disagrees.

Scott Rules, and STP is very special...I would never compare him to Axl...I love them both.... But Velvet Revolver is CRAP? Undecided
and I think this video is the living proof of that......

The solo was kinda cool but the rest of the song is just.......horrible

I liked a lot VR at the begining, their show was one of the best I've seen. But almost 1 year later, it's becoming boring. That's why I said "nothing special".
To compare, 4 years later, the blues and madagascar still give me feeling

love the song
video is ok
but VR definetly has a sound. and it rocks.
i'm sorry. i love the new gnr. i love the old gnr. and i love vr

but these 3 entities don't have anything to do in the same sentence. why ?

One is an OLD band that doesnt exist anymore
The other is not a band yet, has no cd out and doesnt exist yet.
The last one is real band with an album and a life.

how come when slash comes on a the screen with a guitar and a solo is about to start, i get goose bumps.
god, he rules Smiley

Now I love just about everything Slash touches and I'm not here to say that VR is a cheap knock off of GnR or Stone Temple Pilots, I think they're great and the music is better than most everything else coming out right now, but Come On, Come In didn't really do anything for me.

I don't know what it was, but it felt like the music didn't match the lyrics, the lyrics didn't match the video, the video didn't match that weird ass dancing they all seemed to be trying to do, and nothing matched the solo.

I'm not a musical expert by any stretch of the mind, but that song just seemed poorly put together, but that's just my opinion.

no u'r not. watching that i only though how much i love gnr and why VR is nothing like it. i love them as musicians and specially for what they did in the past. but what' they're doing right now is not my cup of tea.
the video itself had some good shots. but nothing that will keep me thinking about it for 2 long. prob their worst video.
and the song is way to boring. doesn't sound like gn'r to me. but they are a different band and it's cool they're having their own sound. it just doesn't do much for me...

It's cool to have your own opinion on VR and I respect it but they aren't ever going to sound like GNR..  I don't think they ever wanted to and if they ever did, it would be the opposite of opinions, people would start saying they sound too much like GNr they should have their own sound.  I personally like the VR sound, it's different now a days to have a great Rock N Roll band that kicks my ass when I blast them in my car or at home.

absolutely not, i think so too. axl was what made guns n' roses so great, and slash contributed alot to it. without him they are helpless to receive the same acclamation as with guns n' roses.
and not only that, scott weiland lacks everything axl's got. voice, stage persona, that "aura" about him that made him the centre of attention once he walked in a room and the mystery that is axl rose. weiland's a washed up junkie and slash and duff know it, they're just trying to stick together as a band once again and pick up the pieces from their former careers.

The sooner you people realize that this is NOT Guns N Roses, the sooner you will stop comparing VR to GNR.  Yes, Axl may have been the mostly the center of GNR, I agree as I am an Axl and old GNR fan.  When I hear VR and when I see VR in concert, I don't expect a GNR show.  I expect a VR show and let me tell you seeing them live and seeing Scott in action before my eyes, 12 rows away center was enough for me to see that Scott can take a crowd and make then his own, he ruled that stage along WITH, Slash, Duff, Matt and Dave.   He doesn't need to be the center of attention, they as a band make them what they are, not one person, that is what makes a band isn't it?  That is what I saw up on that stage.

it's pretty simple if you like the band you support them and enjoy them, if you don't there's plenty of music out there to keep you busy until cd comes it.. beer
