the outro to NR is awesome-vocals, guitar everything.

However, I don't like the fake strings and bullshit on the first half....would have been much better with simple real strings, acoustic guitar, and Slash's electric solos.:peace:

Estranged is the shit...all Gnr fans know that. Somebody needs to start a discussion going on the Axl piano epics. Only use Estranged, Breakdown, TIL, and NR....those four because those 4 are the only piano Axl tracks where he gets sole writing credits. TWAT and Prostitute have co-writers so don't include them.

The chorus kills the song for me, but I have grown to enjoy the entire instrumental and vocally the first two verses prior to the solo....can't listen to the outro just because it is the chorus just repeated over and over

This,

So if she's somewhere near me
I hope to God she hears me
There's no one else
Could ever make me feel
so alive

I hoped she'd never leave me
Please God you must believe me
I've searched the universe
And found myself
Within her eyes

is as well written and honest as this,

When I find out all the reasons
Maybe I'll find another way
Find another day
With all the changing seasons of my life
Maybe I'll get it right next time
An now that you've been broken down
Got your head out of the clouds
You're back down on the ground
And you don't talk so loud
An you don't walk so proud
Any more, and what for?

Axl is hammered.
