Just wondering |
| BradJarre 19.03.2010 04:56 |
No, When he sings GNR its absolutly great... But when he sings LIVE!, Or even worse, QUEEN SONGS!, I get the intension to puke all my guts out! |
| pittrek 19.03.2010 05:08 |
I did like him |
| david (galashiels) 19.03.2010 06:37 |
i thought they were ok.good solid set,and i enjoyed knocking on heavens door.. gnr can be a very good rock band......but but. when they are pissed or druged up,or when rose throws one his major strops,they can be shite. still dont know what or who he was shouting at the concert when he shouted...shove it. maybe protesters about something.i dont know.. but i liked the set. |
| david (galashiels) 19.03.2010 06:40 |
forgot bo rap later on..not a good combo him and elton. bit like lemmy and neil sadaka.. bad move i think. maybe the band trying to get both sides of the gay or not gay argument together as one. for me it didnt work. |
| freddiefan91 19.03.2010 06:58 |
Something happens to him when he is singing bo rhap he looked slightly exhausted for a few moments |
| Rubbersuit 19.03.2010 09:34 |
Sure. It was GnR at their absolute peak (popularity wise anyway), Axl had always been very complimentary about how Queen influenced his music and it seemed natural that they be there. When him and Elton sang together it was a nice moment (especially after the song One in a Million). |

He truly was worthless. The most you can say is that he was rasping, toneless, aimless, uninspired. I won't even go into the more negative aspects. |

Seal's one of those people for me that could sing the phone book and I'd still be riveted. He can't possibly make anything complete crap. |

Axl can sing in unique ways, but sometimes he does a horrible vocal. When he said "buddy" at the concert, it sounded like "muzzy"... so, I didn't like his vocals at the concert. |
| marcenciels 20.03.2010 08:11 |
tough day for a lot of them... sheer heart attack would suited Axl better ? i think Benny hill would have been a good choice ;) |
| koldweather123 20.03.2010 10:24 |
Well the problem for Axl is the one thing Freddie was quite possibly the best ever at was his middle voice, and thats the one thing Axl really hasn't got a great deal of IMO. Decent enough with the low notes, and obviously can nail the high notes but the middle range which Freddie did sing in is something I think he has always struggled with bar maybe the very early days. If there was one song that I'd imaigne Axl would nail, its surely a song like Gimme the Prize, with its raw power even into the higher notes I'd reckon he'd do a decent job of it, but songs like WWRY seem to be the types he struggles more with. Finally it should be noted they were in the middle of a monster world tour so Axl's vocals probably weren't as strong as they could be....and yes Axl was a huge queen fan, I'm not sure there are many others who have covered a part of sail away sweet sister afterall like he did in 92. |

I am one of his followers, and proudly so, and it is becauseI do regard him to be one of the greatest singers of all time. I can't really comment on the Freddie Mercury concert, since I've only seen bits and pieces, but the way he sings his own stuff is IMO extraordinary. His range, his unique pronunciation of certain words, his versatility, the emotion (such as rage) that he puts into his singing, his ability to dramatically speed up or to slow down and his tone all combine to make him IMO one of the greatest singers to have ever lived. I think he's an absolute freak. |
| dougie 20.03.2010 14:04 |
Roger Taylor sure liked Axl's performance. In fact, Roger said that Axl's performance, not George Michael's, gave him the most exhilaration on the day. Personally, I thought Axl did fine. He did what he does. I agree with the earlier post that it was a tough day for the lot of them. |

I'm not a fan of Axl's voice and personality. He squeels like a pig. I liked gnr's first albums, but I gave away my copies of Illusion 1&2 years ago. I've been at the FM tribute concert (10th row from front). GNR's performance of their own 2 songs was really very good imo. I didn't like him singing WWRY and Boh Rhap. He looked and sounded very insecure about his lyrics. Axl's performance together with Elton John was a very big surprice because in that period Axl had a very anti-homosexuality attitude. Their version of Knocking on heaven's door, recorded at the FM tribute, was released as a single and a big hit over here in Holland |

Maybe I follow these guys like Axl, not because I think they are a 'cool bad ass' type but because I do think they have talent. You don't think he has talent, fine, but it's merely your opinion. Other people do have the right to have a different opinion. What I find sad is that you are so unwilling to acknowledge that other people have the right to an opposing opinion, you either attack their taste or you act as if your opinion is fact. |

I do think that Axl is a great singer, but if you are genuinely interested in why I like Axl, then I will tell you. I suspect that you aren't interested at all, except to derive some kind of amusement from it. Little Skippy, I will note five things: 1)You are the person who first brought up sexuality back when you attacked Queen's male fans. Even now, you keep on bringing it back. You say that I have a sexual identity crisis (not really), yet you are the HOMOPHOBE obsessed with my sexuality. 2)I know EVERYTHING about you. EVERYTHING I said about you was true. You don't like Queen, you are homopbobic, you are barely a teenager, you are a disgusting troll, you are so so incredibly stupid that to call you an idiot would be a compliment. Oh, and considering that there are quite a few award-winning authors, who spell alot using one sentence, and that different countries have different rules regarding spelling; it is you who needs to go to school, that is if your parents allow you to go to school. 3)You say that I have self hatred, except I'm not the one who refers to other members as dumb bitches and cunts all the time. I also would be very wary about calling me a shitty person. After the filth that comes out of your mouth, you have no right to refer to anyone as a shitty person. At least I have friends. Do you even know what that word means? Have you ever had a friend? Doubt it. BTW, I'm only a 'shitty person' to you, not everyone. You deserve it. For you are a shitty person to everyone on this board, probably everyone in your life. 4)Those lyrics offend you? LOL. For someone as repulsively stupid and homophobic as you, you're not on particularly safe ground to talk about being offended. It's like the KKK complaining about racism! 5)When it comes to liking Axl Rose or any other artist, I don't need to justify myself to you of all people. Whether you think I'm a hypocrite or not doesn't really concern me. I have better things to do than to waste my time thinking what little Skippy thinks of me. You know, if you had any intelligence at all, you could seriously ask me how do I reconcile my love for Rose with his homophobia, but as a stupid homophobe whose only reason for being on this site is to troll, I want nothing to do with you. |

I find it interesting that amazon finds skip, a person she never met a homophobe by a few things he wrote. Most likely joking around. Axle in turn obviously wasn't Joking when he sang those lryics, but he's gods gift to the world, lol. I do think that Axl is a great singer, but if you are genuinely interested in why I like Axl, then I will tell you. I suspect that you aren't interested at all, except to derive some kind of amusement from it. Little Skippy, I will note five things: 1)You are the person who first brought up sexuality back when you attacked Queen's male fans. Even now, you keep on bringing it back. You say that I have a sexual identity crisis (not really), yet you are the HOMOPHOBE obsessed with my sexuality. 2)I know EVERYTHING about you. EVERYTHING I said about you was true. You don't like Queen, you are homopbobic, you are barely a teenager, you are a disgusting troll, you are so so incredibly stupid that to call you an idiot would be a compliment. Oh, and considering that there are quite a few award-winning authors, who spell alot using one sentence, and that different countries have different rules regarding spelling; it is you who needs to go to school, that is if your parents allow you to go to school. 3)You say that I have self hatred, except I'm not the one who refers to other members as dumb bitches and cunts all the time. I also would be very wary about calling me a shitty person. After the filth that comes out of your mouth, you have no right to refer to anyone as a shitty person. At least I have friends. Do you even know what that word means? Have you ever had a friend? Doubt it. BTW, I'm only a 'shitty person' to you, not everyone. You deserve it. For you are a shitty person to everyone on this board, probably everyone in your life. 4)Those lyrics offend you? LOL. For someone as repulsively stupid and homophobic as you, you're not on particularly safe ground to talk about being offended. It's like the KKK complaining about racism! 5)When it comes to liking Axl Rose or any other artist, I don't need to justify myself to you of all people. Whether you think I'm a hypocrite or not doesn't really concern me. I have better things to do than to waste my time thinking what little Skippy thinks of me. You know, if you had any intelligence at all, you could seriously ask me how do I reconcile my love for Rose with his homophobia, but as a stupid homophobe whose only reason for being on this site is to troll, I want nothing to do with you. |

Axl Rose isn't homophobic anyway, he was angry and the song was a way to release his tension at people who had harmed him in his past. Remember, these guys were poor white trash from the streets of LA. That's what the duet with Elton was about. Elton and him decided to work together to dispel the negativity around GnR being homophobic. From Wiki: In response to the following accusations of homophobia, Rose initially stated that he was "pro-heterosexual" and did not understand homosexuals, and spoke of negative experiences in his past, such as a seemingly friendly man who let him crash on his hotel room floor and then tried to rape him. [3] He later softened this stance, and insisted that he was not homophobic, pointing out that some of his icons, such as Freddie Mercury and Elton John, as well as the head of his record label, were bisexual or gay. In his final public comments about "One in a Million" in 1992, Rose stated, "It was a way for me to express my anger at how vulnerable I felt in certain situations that had gone down in my life. It's not a song I would write now." |

Axl's voice suits his songs and some of them are great (November Rain comes to mind). His surprise entrance for the rock finale of Bohemian Rhapsody gave me goosebumps the first few times I saw it on video. How he spins and then the fireworks erupt from the floor. The audience goes wild. For a few seconds, he owns the place... and then he starts singing :S. Not a good vocal performance, by any means, but he sure set the house on fire. A quick adrenaline rush to everyone there. I saw him live with his Gn'R cover band a couple of years ago and I felt I was in the presence of a major rockstar for the first time in my life. His voice was very powerful and he had all the attitude. Nobody even cared the show started almost 4 hours late! haha |

Queen was one of the first rock bands I became a fan of (not too long ano...late 90s). And soon after I started listening to other bands too. The band that really attracted me at this point was GnR, and Axl's vocals had a lot to do with it. But soon I realised, like someone already said, Axl's voice is tailor made for certain type of songs and sucks if he is singing some other type of song. I have only seen the tribute concert on DVD, and I thought his Queen + section was OK to bad. But the GnR sections were awsome. I did watch a concert of GnR where he covers Sail Away Sweet Sister and I was so delighted because it was totally unexpected. I rememebr I posted about it on this forum at the time too. And I'd really like to see that footage where he talks about Freddie/Queen in Budapest. And about those racist/homophobic lyrics posted above....I am shocked. If he actually wrote those, then I give him the finger. |

Amazon, honey, don't respond to him now....that'd be appreciated. There's nothing you or he can say to end this, and you'd only be stretching it further. And destroying another thread. |
| koldweather123 25.03.2010 20:42 |
I wouldn't say Axl is a 'good' singer but he has some much venom and rasp in his voice which makes it good in a totally different way to Freddie Mercury. As others have said he was stunning at what he did. He couldn't do what Freddie did, but to be fair I doubt Freddie could do much of what Axl does, though I bet he'd do a killer November Rain! |
| deleted user 08.04.2010 19:10 |
I think he was just great - I wasn't a fan of guns n' roses at the time but in retrospect he was perfect. He captured the spirit of Queen and Freddie Mercury perfect (especially as a 90s star). Cheers, Peter Cetera |
| koldweather123 11.04.2010 19:59 |
Without a doubt Axl was/is the hier to Freddie's stage presence, I think you only need to look at the way he moves around the stage to see that. Also, I rather think Knocking on Heaven's door became Axl's 'eh-oh' so to speak, its clear he got that idea from Freddie I think! |

The thing about Axl Rose is that he's just got a hideously irritating singing voice. It's so awful, it's not funny anymore, and I'm usually pretty tolerant. It's not that he's a bad singer, he has just chosen to develop his talent into something completely gruesome and unlistenable. Everytime I hear the long wail at the end of "Don't Cry" (I think that's the name of the song..?) gets me shivers in anticipation of my bowels dropping out and strangling me. Thus far I've been lucky enough to have avoided that fate. Anyway, no I didn't like him at the tribute. To be perfectly honest, I'm pretty convinced he murdered the whole epic happening with his presence. Axl Rose was probably the reason for Elizabeth Taylor getting drunk or high and overdoing her little speech, Liza Minnelli forgetting to bother about singing properly, Robert Plant doing one of his worst ever performances and Brian May f**king up some of the solos (to be fixed later for the DVD) amongst other little mishaps. |
