Im obviously in the minority here but I like it much better than the demo. This for some reason was the one demo that just didn't grab me. But I love the finished version.

Just heard the new version from the GnR myspace, gotta say I love it. I was pretty nervous about it since hearing the snippets of the songs on that swedish music site, and seeing everyones reactions on here the past week. Thank goodness its not near as bad as some were making it appear. I like rons contributions to the song, as well as its slightly harder edge(compared to the demo that is).

I love the outro... it really is perfect considering it's about John Lennon getting shot... it really adds a sad, sudden impact.

Hmm, I don't know.

This tune is somehow not growing on me. Together with Sorry this song is a kind of low point of the record. They are still good songs, somewhere 2.5/5 but I don't know, the song doesn't make me relax and listen to it.

The Demo was the best of the leaks....Now its like the 5th or 6th best song. Still Great but something that was great was that the demo sounded really simple, now its a bit too busy.

hopefully the May version will be released as a B-Side.

Brian may's solo would not mesh with the rest of the record...his smooth bluesy style of guitar playing would not go along with the rest of the songs on the album...I loved the leak, but the final version is great too, and that is how it had to be

The link is miles better, this version is good but the leaked version was GREAT.
The song took a step backwards when they re did it. If it was BH doing both solos he would have nailed them but BBF and Finck butchered Mays solos

I can't understand the hating on this song, it's a great song that's just been made better! That final verse is arguably the best thing GNR past or present have ever done. My fave so far

The only thing I hate is the little shredding in the first solo, it seems out of place and sounds like a step back, but outro solo is far superior to Brian May's version - longer, clearer, heavier.
