Its a cover of Todd Rundgren's song "Dust In the Wind".
-Jeff
FYI- Dust in the Wind is by Kansas, not Todd Rungren.
FYI - Two different songs
And Rundgren's Dust in the Wind came before Kansas's. It's on his 1972 double-lp "Something/Anything?," which is a sloppy masterpiece along the lines of what Axl is probably shooting for. Kansas's Dust in the Wind was released on their 1977 album "Point of Know Return."
As an aside, I think both these artists are useful in understanding Axl's musical frame of reference. Yes, NIN and the newer bands will have an effect, but I feel Axl is at heart a prog-rock thinker. That is where he and the rest of his former bandmates split. They were punk/metal, Axl was prog-rock. The two don't coexist very well (although they did somehow on Appetite, when Axl's melodramatic bent was reigned in by the band).
People talk about Axl going for an industrial sound, or alternative. I actually expected an updated, highly produced prog-rock sound, something like ELO, ELP, Queen, Kansas, Pink Floyd, later Zeppelin, Supertramp. Basically the bands Axl was hearing on rock radio in his teens. Obvisouly there will be new rock influences, including Radiohead, which is essentially a prog-rock band for the 21st century, but I do think these 70s kinds of bands and this type of music will be the template of anything Axl releases in the rest of his career. Just look at UYI.

I think "Oh My God," not to mention "My World," fuels a lot of this speculations. ?After all, its no secret that he
is
in fact going in an electronic direction (the ex members have said it, and he says so himself in the '99 MTV interview). ?I think youre right, there will be a lot of ELO/Queen influences (for obvious reasons), but its just as likely will see NIN and White Zombie.

R&P: Is your new material more industrial? We hear that it is not very similar to that of your old band.
Axl: It is not industrial, the closest thing to that was perhaps Oh My God, but there are some songs that won't be on the album that were this way. There will be all kinds of styles, many influences as blues, mixed in the songs. But not so much inspiration of Aerosmith or AC/DC that was used on Appetite. Buckethead, his first influence and the reason why he grabbed a guitar for the first time was Angus Young of AC/DC. Several of the boys love to play AC/DC. It is only we will play other styles. When we tried writing songs in the old style of Guns N' Roses, they sounded too old, they didn't sound so alive. We could not make that. And I think that that also passed with the old Guns N' Roses. The songs composed by the boys for another album many years ago, everything sounded old. Then we tried to explore to maintain the band alive.

The ex-members can say what they want. They might not be the most reliable sources on what the new songs will sound like.
Just because they changed the sound a bit doesn't make the music techno, industrial or electronic.

The album is not gonna be industrial. People who don't like the new band usually like to say that, but except Oh My God and Silkworms (BOTH never played live after 2001), none of the new songs sound industrial to me. People should wait before they judge a music not even on the market yet.

Todd Rundgren isn't a band it's a musician.
