So beautiful. Axl’s voice always gives me goosebumps. He’s the legend. Even tho i’m 19 now n couldn’t get to experience these at their time, i am so glad they are still with us. I saw them last july in vienna w my friend. It was the best time of my life. I picked up a bass because of Duff Mckagan, and I never gave up because of Axl Rose. God bless all of them.

This version came close to being included on the Appetite release, but they decided to wait and keep it for a later album. It's a shame. The final version released on UYI was typical of the overproduced music we heard from many bands during that era. The irony is that what appealed so much to people about Guns 'N Roses' music during the Appetite era (even up to the original release of Civil War in 1990) was the raw, emotional sound and lo-fi production quality. It was so counter to what was being heard on the radio and on MTV at the time. I remember thinking at the time that these guys were the real deal. It was the perfect marriage of punk, hard rock, and garage... Live at the Ritz (1988) is absolutely legendary.

I had this demo along with November Rain, Jumping Jack flash , Heartbreak hotel in 88 , I lived all the way down in Tasmania Australia and got a copy from overseas through tape trading. I was actually disappointed with the Use your illusion version as I LOVE this version, especially Axls voice . It was awesome to be 13 and having these unreleased songs on a demo, You thought you were in a small special club that had access to songs no one knew about.
@eastcoastmonkey

Yeah, you know ... I have heard that it used to be easier to get demos and tape trading living overseas than it was living in the U.S. Lucky you! Yes - I hate saying this about Shannon Hoon - cause he was a great guy and super talented. But, this song, to me, just sounds better with one person singing it. Sure, a little back up, but Hoon and Axl basically sing the whole thing together, you know? And i always felt that it sounded ... too busy that way? Or basically, what I didn't like was that I wanted to hear Axl's amazing voice. And no disrespect to Axl or Shannon Hoon or to Slash, because I know they all loved it that way. I just always thought it would have been good to do a version on UYI that was just Axl and then another version with Shannon Hoon. But - now I know I can actually buy this version. I didn't know that I could. I figured out I could buy the single that was released, which is similar, but not this one, right? Do I have to buy the special edition to get this one? The 1985 demo version? Cause it is NOT the one on the single that was released, correct? Thanks so much and I totally agree that this one is the best. But I think they all have their merit. Just a matter of opinion. It is just if you love GNR and you love Axl - you love Axl's voice. So of course you want to hear it as much as possible, right? Rest in peace to Shannon Hoon and no disrespect to him or to anyone in GNR, especially Axl and Slash who i know loved it that way!

I think it is just the three than you can buy. I love the original version - the one on the single. So much better than the UYI versions cause you can actually hear Axl's voice on it and no one is singing on top of him and because I just like it better with only one person singing. It just sounds more ... sincere? With one person singing it. Why would you ever want to cover up Axl's voice on a ballad, you know? lol. Really appreciate the link, though!

Possible I'm even forgetting another track that was on UYI that goes back to AFD era.
