Texas King Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 How do you feel about this popular rock song? I expect a polarizing result here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nova Carmina Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 I like it, but don't love it. I smile when it comes on the radio, but it's not in my iTunes library, whereas some other GnR songs are. Isn't the video the one with Slash soloing at the church out in the middle of Kansas or something? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluefox4000 Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 3 Stars. i like it but you couldn't escape the vidio back in old '91. I'm a bit worn out on it. Mick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laughedatbytime Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 The minimalism of the song and video was too jarring to appeal to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick N. Backer Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 It's a great song. I happen to think both of the Illusion albums are excellent. I saw them in 1987 opening for Aerosmith, in 1991, in 2017, and I was supposed to have seen them this summer at Fenway. They never disappoint live. All of their albums, except Chinese Democracy, still work for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Entre_Perpetuo Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 Great song. The Illusions are kind of a mess imo, but this is one of the highlights for sure. Slash turns in one of his greatest guitar solos. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chemistry1973 Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 Awful. The band of Appetite for Destruction was no more. November Rain is a bloated mess with really bad singing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_hi_water._ Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 great but not a favorite I mostly prefer everything on their AFD album not a huge GNR fan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurabw Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 I remember the first time I heard this I thought it was one of the greatest songs ever. I still do really like it, though I'm not that big a fan of GnR in general. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

driventotheedge Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 Saw it done live at the Pacific Amphitheater in Costa Mesa before the Illusions were released and told my (now ex) wife "that's going to be a monster hit". I liked it then and still like it now. 4 stars. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should’ve said: I wanted to vote for gonorrhea but had to settle for one star. Listening to Axl’s vocals is what I imagine testicular pain feels like.

invisible airwave Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 piece of poopdon't mince words. it's shit. How I feel about it's meh counterpart, Estranged, especially with that video. Axl swimming with dolphins. Only someone dancing with Mr. Brownstone would love that idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1-0-0-1-0-0-1 Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 Two stars. It has a couple good moments but there's a lot of bloat there -- not just in the song itself, but by the time this song hit MTV the bloat was in Axl's head as well.

Texas King Posted August 20, 2020 Author Share Posted August 20, 2020 November Rain is the most popular classic rock video on YouTube (over 1.4 B views). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texas King Posted August 20, 2020 Author Share Posted August 20, 2020 Listening to Axl’s vocals is what I imagine testicular pain feels like. You dislike Axl's voice so much, but you don't mind Brian Johnson's voice? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
