just for the hell of it here is the best "vocal performance" i have found of the blues.

i think in a lot of the live versions of the Blues, axls vocals are terrible at the beggining, on this occasion though, awesome.

Thanks for the link. This version is better than the Italy gig.
Although whats up with sound at the end, it sounds like Axl's vocals are coming from pre recorded source.

i dont think its pre recorded at the end, i think it may be chris pitman doing back up vocals, i've heard that he can sound quite like Axl when he sings.

I can say with 100% certainty, that is not "pre-recorded."  I had a blast in New Jersey and that Better is amazing...I just wish December 19 had the same high quality and 2 cams.   

By the way, to those who haven't seen it live (which I know is very few here) the videos don't come close to the live experience.

such a beautiful song. Doesn't your heart get fluttered from robins first note??
Or even from franks 'Guns N Roses' beats and calls.

bet the latest one is the best but damn I love every performance of this song.

Dublin version was awesome I thought. Shame no pro version could show how could it is. Think once the general public hears this it could have cult appeal!

Rock Am Ring isn't the best version band-wise, but it was what made me a fan of Guns N' Roses. Sure Axl's voice isn't the best he has sounded on the track, but there is something very heartfelt about that performance.

The "Na na na na" give me chills every single time.

But the cake is a lie! 

I see you're thinking with Portals.

True, but the version that was played before the video was the one from the Illusion sessions.

On the 1st post, the link to you tube with better in Italy,      what is the song at the beginning of the video,  ain't going down no more?   I've never heard that before, what is that?

I like the Budokan and Osaka versions of Better. I also love the Holland one last year.
