Have seen some weird shit on these polls - like Shadow of your love over SCOM (Just defies reasonable logic) but for Don't Cry to place so high on ONE and about to be bounced so early on TWO by the same people voting is a little hard to stomach

I'll agree about "Sweet Child o Mine" -- can't believe that got voted off so fast.

However, I disagree about "Don't Cry".  To me, the lyrics of the Alternate version are far inferior, making it a much different song.  I love the original "Don't Cry", and detest the alternate version.  Hence my vote, and many other voters by the looks of it.

The alternate lyrics are very awkward and it doesn't really deserve consideration on musical merits because it's no different musically. Frankly, I think it would be unfair to the other songs to rate it higher because of instrumentation it inherited. Just like Live and Let Die went out early because it's a cover. KOHD will do better because it's sufficiently original in arrangement.

Fair enough
I'm more of a melody/instrumentation driven listener than lyrics and it's the SAME song so that's where I have brain freeze trying to understand
I can get it if it went out quicker but to come behind some of the filler on this album that is still alive is what seems odd
Oh well - like you said - others feel the same so I'll accept I'm just missing the big picture

There are no fillers in this album - well, maybe number 14, but that's more an outro IMO.

There are so many deep cuts on uyi1&2 i dont think its weird that Dont cry is voted out by the core fans. I actually think thats tve case with scom also. That song is so much played and many of the hardcore gnr fans dont hold it as one of the jewls. Soyl is a really cool rock song.. not among the best, but since it got released as a single only a few years ago its still fresh!

Yeah - Idk...it sounds like what it is - a fun little turd that they smartly decided not to put on a real album when they had the chance so many years ago.
Now they bless us with this because there's nothing new they choose to release and it beats out SCOM even though it was not on Appetite
Coronavirus and the mental implications of it have reached new boundaries  :hihi:

Have seen some weird shit on these polls - like Shadow of your love over SCOM (Just defies reasonable logic) but for Don't Cry to place so high on ONE and about to be bounced so early on TWO by the same people voting is a little hard to stomach

I'll agree about "Sweet Child o Mine" -- can't believe that got voted off so fast.

However, I disagree about "Don't Cry".  To me, the lyrics of the Alternate version are far inferior, making it a much different song.  I love the original "Don't Cry", and detest the alternate version.  Hence my vote, and many other voters by the looks of it.

There are so many deep cuts on uyi1&2 i dont think its weird that Dont cry is voted out by the core fans. I actually think thats tve case with scom also. That song is so much played and many of the hardcore gnr fans dont hold it as one of the jewls. Soyl is a really cool rock song.. not among the best, but since it got released as a single only a few years ago its still fresh!
in any case i think the alternate versione has a better climax (axl’s voice change when he sings And when you're in need of someone, my heart won't deny you So many seem so lonely with no one left to cry to, baby)

Yes - 100%

I like the original better but back when these albums came out - that line always stood out to me as well and worked great into the song

Yeah - Idk...it sounds like what it is - a fun little turd that they smartly decided not to put on a real album when they had the chance so many years ago.
Now they bless us with this because there's nothing new they choose to release and it beats out SCOM even though it was not on Appetite
Coronavirus and the mental implications of it have reached new boundaries  :hihi:

I think the fantastic production on it that IMO beats the final AFD album helps it a lot. To hear the band in 1986 with the quality of 2017 like they're right there in front of you was indescribably cool to me when I first heard it.

Songs are voted out so fast. Maybe next time we should start with 20 points per song.

We can consider that for the final "best of the best" vote.  : ok:

With 10 points, one album takes about a week, so I think that's alright.

Hey Spirit

I may be alone here - but not only do I find this a fascinating poll but I really like when people explain their votes.
It's cool how one song can mean so much to one fan and then another they throw away like nothing.

Maybe when we serve up the final poll of all of the top 3 - we can encourage a little commentary in the process
Not a novel - but a few points as to why a vote went the way it did

Or maybe no one gives a flying fart about other people's take on a particular song  :hihi:

Idk - just like seeing some insights

Peace :peace:

With UYI I the vote result didnt reflecting my ranking but UYI II is pretty close

Breakdown
Pretty Tied Up
Locomotive
Estranged
You Could Be Mine. Are all really special to me.

Next batch would be
Civil War
14Years
Yesterdays
So Fine
I still remember rocking to the Cassette in my room when i was something like 5 years old. 20years later the obsession to these two records hasnt slowed down at all. After all they are my fav records ever.

But Estranged is No1

I'm glad and surprised to see the amount of love Breakdown has been getting. It has always been a top 3 on UYI II for me.

The lyrics and melodies are so catchy, especially "Now the damage done and we're back out the run" portion. It's such a telling tale for this band and what would come to be.

This round has been the hardest so far, picking a winner from here is going to be insane  :nervous:

I think Civil War should have probably beat YCBM because it has the diversity of soft parts, which only enhance the impact of the hard parts. And of course the beautiful wah work by Slash. But of course, it's a very tough call. Breakdown is highly underrated, but I still wouldn't put it in the league of the other tracks that were left.
