does nobody think that better has been the heavy song axel is talkin about?i cant imagine any of their songs getting heavier than better

does anyone have any more info on the song "this i love"?


I think Axl meant that "This I Love" was, emotionally, the heaviest thing he ever did, not musically but feel free to prove me wrong.


you're right.  when This I Love was slated for a movie a couple years back, the lady that was fighting for the song to get on said it was the heaviest song, lyrically, he's ever written.


Actually, Axl said that himself back in 1992.

"I wrote and recorded a new love song that I want on the next record called This I Love, that’s the heaviest thing that I’ve ever done."

The Sp1at story about "the lady that was fighting for the song" clearly credits Axl for the quote, too.  That story does add, however, that the song is a simple piano ballad, now with drums, that is 5 minutes or more in length and it is a very heartfelt love song.

I wouldn't classify There Was A Time as a piano ballad though.

Neither would I, probably because it isn't. ;)
