Epic doesn't mean great.

Estranged wouldn't be half that good without Slash's guitar.

What if, what if, who are we to say that... sorry it's theory. The song is a fact.

It's like saying that 'well, Jimmy Page did a great job on Since I've Been Loving You, but who are we to know if another player wouldn't make it even better?'. It's too much rambling in the fantasy land.

You should change that 'a' to an 'e' and market yourself as John Fogerty's long lost son. Would be a way to get some publicity.

I'm intrigued by this because that first song was killer. I still listen to it from time to time. Listened to it alot those first few days, but there's so much music coming out I quickly moved on. I think thats what artists nowadays have the most trouble overcoming... the massive amount of competition and the fact people just bounce from artist to artist and have limited time to really dive in and key in on one specific artist/group.

Good example...

I was on a huge Tiny Masters of Today kick a couple weeks ago. Listened to their new album for almost a week straight. I've moved on to Frou Frou's album which I had never even heard of until a few days ago. Amanda Blank's album will be leaking any day now, and then I'll be listening to that non stop. I'm in my mid 30s, and if I'm doing this, the younger generation is even worse.
