Is it safe to say....

That -THIS I LOVE-  blows Dont Cry out of the water, in terms of emotions, sound, guitar solo? or do you think that dont cry still is better.

Both the songs are amazing in their own right.  It'd be like comparing Don't Cry Original to Alternate lyrics.  Though Alternate lyrics own pretty hardcore!  I think the alternate lyrics compare better to TIL, personally.  More of a fair fight, because Alternate lyrics have that most amazing third verse, and of course TIL with the fourth verse and the sustained "heart" lyric.

Either way I think we can all agree Axl continues to be the most amazing frontman out these days.

Dude, when it came out I really felt that This I Love pissed all over November Rain, Don't Cry s kinda a different comparison, but I don't know, I might like Don't Cry better, but I really see them as very different
IT IS REALLY HAPPENING!

Nowhere near, the lyrics are somewhat basic in comparison to Don't Cry, same with the solo.
In a way, its as if the song relies on Axl to sound like hes about to cry to give it that emotional feel.

I think it blows Don't Cry, definitely not Alt.Lyrics version of it though.

He asked a question and I answered it. I also said what others around me have thought about it.

Not everyone is going to like every song or share YOUR opinion. Its called an opinion. I noticed a lot of people live and die on that song. I think its because they're just as emotional as the song is so it hits them harder, which is fine.

I just don't happen to be that emotional. At least not when it comes to heart break. The lyrics honestly make me sick. He sounds pathetic in contrast to something like "TWAT" or "Better" which are pretty much about the same thing.

The solo is really good though and expresses the sentiment well.

I don't think they compare. 

Don't Cry, the original, he's dumping her.  Don't Cry [alt version], he's cynical about love in general.  TIL he's a heartbroken wimp.  And I mean that as a generality because like it or not one of the stages of betrayal and heartbreak is rather wimpy.  I have no problem with this song being highly emotional.

it's so creepy to read these lines, CD was recorded by NEW GNR, the original lineup has nothing to do with it, they did have to do with don't cry, a different style that's so far from new gnr stuff so why you should say that pepsi and coke cola might be compared? :finger:

...today guns n' roses forums are full of useless posts like this one!
I know you were so happy when you left me and I also know you're unhappy now cuz you sleep with'em without being loved really,what a sad whore!
