Here Today...


« on: June 09, 2006, 12:42:04 AM »

Is The Blues the new Don't Cry?  Meaning, is it that power ballad that the public is going to connect with and turn into a huge hit.  They are both soft, meaningful songs that are about the same subject and both have great guitar work.  I really think The Blues is going to turn into a huge hit the way Don't Cry did.

Wait to hear the studio version first, the lyrics in the blues are better.

I think the Blues is going to prove much more timeless than Dont Cry - DC has aged kind of badly compared to a lot of their other stuff.

I love the Blues.

I actually think The Blues will probably be better than Don't Cry as well. We can't know for sure, because the studio version never actually gets released, but it would not surprise me.

I doubt that anything will top Estranged.

You guys are nuts.
Don't Cry was one of the best GNR tracks ever while the Blues isn't even the best out of the 5 songs we've heard.

It's missing that real hard hitting guitar that Don't Cry had. The solo is perfect even though it's not a shred fiesta.

No. It can't top Don't Cry... Not unless they completly change it on CD.

The Blues is already leagues above Don't Cry in terms of music and lyrics, IMO.

I found Don't Cry to be really dated, and not in a good way - the lyrics have always struck me as really corny.

i love the blues and don't cry but i think they can't be compared at all, the blues's got a different sounds and elements, it's a modern song with old classic hard rock things that's what makes it by its own a wonderful piece. it's going to be a hit just like don't cry in its time . the blues ?sounds is pure and fresh. IMO.

Are we debating if its going to be more successful, or if we like it more?  The former can be debated, the latter is pure opinion.

I don't think it will be more successful than Don't Cry, because DC hit number 10 on the hot 100.  Its hard for a rock band like GnR to do that in today's rap/hip hop era.

I personally think the blues (especially rio 3 version) is a better overall song.  But not by much.

Quiet you! Your opinion is not fact...

Anyway I think the blues has an awesome solo. More catchy than anything in don't cry.
