Better
Guns N' Roses

No one ever told me when I was alone
They just thought I'd know better.. better...
No one ever told me when I was alone
They just thought I'd know better.. better...

The hardest part this troubled heart
has never yet been through now
To heal the scars that got their start
inside someone like you now
But had I known or I'd been shown back
when I'd long you'd take me
To break the charge that brought me home...
and all that won't erase me

I never would not that I could
No matter what you paid me
replay the part
You stole my heart
I should have known you're crazy

If all I knew was that with you
I'd want someone to save me
It'd be enough
That just my luck
I fell in love and baby...

All that I wanted was...

Now I know you better
You know I know better
Yeah, now I know you better!

So bittersweet,
this tragedy won't ask for absolution
This melody inside of me,
still searches for solution
A twist of fate,
the change of heart kills my infatuation
A broken heart provides the spark
for my determination

No one ever told me when I was alone
They just thought I'd know better, better...
No one ever told me when I was alone
They just thought I'd know better, better...

All that I wanted, was...

I know, you know, you know better
You know, I know, you know better
Now you, know me better

I never wanted you to be so full of anger (anger)
I never wanted you to be somebody else
I never wanted you to be someone afraid to know themselves
I only wanted you to see things for yourself

All that I wanted, was...

Now I know you better
Yeah we all know better

All that I wanted was...

I know better
I know better
I know better
I know better

If I were you,
I'd manage to abhor the invitation
Of promised love
that can't keep up with your adoration
Just use your head,
and in the end you'll find your inspiration
To choose your steps that won't regret
this kind of aggravation

No one ever told me when I was alone
They just thought I'd know better.. better...
No one ever told me when I was alone
They just thought I'd know better.. better...

is it me or is Bumble's rhythm parts at the choruses really loud. Still the track still gives me the chills it did when i first heard it leaked.


Harley Davidson commercial revist?

[osw]

Could be better 

[Randy Jesus]

The one thing that remains the same is it is still a Pop-Rock Track. Very good and doesn't get boring.

[Journeyman]

what can i say...it always had single written all over it, and now it is!! It doesnt get boring, its totally new and unique the way it sounds

[I ARE ESS]

i love the little additions
they make the song really interesting
always loved it
but it was very straightforward on the demos
and now it seems to have extra depth
the vocals are superb and the lyrics reallys tand out as i dont think axl has a song like this on an album before

[ShePoutsHerBest]

I am listening to it now, for a song I've been hearing since 2006 it really never does get old, fucking love it

Ya we cant forget about the song that will probley be the commercial/marketing success for this album!


Its like "Better" is the backbone/ Big Brother to all the songs !!  Always a classic , never go wrong 

[DOASHK]

they are playing the whole album on the wrif in detroit, but when they played better they edited out the first "no one ever told me when i was alone" parts and skipped write to the verse... weird.

[UcudBmine]

It didn't improve a lot, but I still think it kicks major ass

B+

[dave-gnfnr2k]

Better got worse and worse with every version we heard and this final version almost ruins the song


The the added guitar part over the bridge terrible and you can tell it was just tacked on and feels out of place, as is the new drumming that is louder than the rest of the drums is a distraction. It was stupid to have Frank just add those. The song is still good but these almost run a great song and make the song seem like a cut and paste job and feel disjointed.

Also the songs volume is screwy, it gets louder and soft throughout the whole song like someone is messing with the volume on the stereo.

[roboaxl]

I've never been as hot on this song as others, but I must have been listening to it wrong because the album version really surprised me by how good it is. Great track
B+

[Starscream]

I'd like to see a physical release of this single in Europe
