why would anyone want to hear perfect crime? Roll Eyes



Possibly because it's one of the best songs from UYI I...



That's stretching it..... smoking

I'll say Roll Eyes. what about NR?

No doubt. The song is aggressive, but it's a total mess - If any song is guilty of overproduction in GNR's catalogue, this is the one I'd point to. The only cool part is when Axl yells "I said it's PERFECT!!"

It's the only original Illusions song that the band is going to play other then November Rain and You Could Be Mine, so I think the band must feel it's one of GNR's best.

I just love how the opening lines of Perfect Crime are sung:

Kickin' back in the shadows
Got no need for the light
Who's sorry now old timer
Look at how you've spent your life
Scroungin' for change
To put some money in your pocket
My how scratch does burn
Laughin' at the suckers as you pissed it away

But I got the time and I got the muscle
I got the need to lay it all on the line
I ain't afraid of your smoke screen hustle
It's a perfect crime
Goddamn it it's a perfect crime
Motherfucker it's a perfect crime
I said it's perfect



Pretty damn awesome t me.  For the record, NR is one of my least favorite song in the whole catalog.  I never bother to burn that when I'm make custom GNR CDs.  Perfect Crimes always makes the list.

Is that why the song was a regular on the Illusion tour.... Roll Eyes

Besides, it's not the bands opinion of the song we're talking about here.

Yeah, but it's still interesting.  I think it's a kick ass song.  Hopefully they play it tonight.

Good point. But opinions of songs, certaintly change over time i'm sure.

Just look at Down On The Farm. Sure, it's a UK Subs cover, but who ever thought we'd hear ANYTHING from The Spaghetti Incident in 2006?

Plus you never know. Axl might've told the guys, "hey, i'll sing whatever you want, you guys make the setlist. Go into the catalog and pick out your favorites, and i'll be there to sing them."

I think Perfect Crime is a great song, and I think it should've opened the show the entire run during the UYI world tour in 1991-93. It's still one of my favorites from UYI, and it just may be one of there's also. Who knows...

i like the guitar in the verse "...i gotta blind man followin me in chains, said its fun to watch...."

its simple but effective.

although i dont think perfect crime makes it in to the top 5 tunes from UYI collcetively or as a single album! peace
