Axl's Vanishing Point monologue at the end of "Breakdown" is pretty funny/creepy.

I always like the other version of "Don't Cry", mainly because of the change-up in the bridge/last verse...

Both kinda crap, honestly.

II's a better "rock" album, for what it's worth.

I gotta vote for II as well, but just by a little bit.

If only becuase "My World" is the only glimpse we've ever gotten of the industrial/NiN-like direction Axl wanted to take the band in.

HAHAHA!

Ah yes, "My World." Ah yes indeed.

I liked 1 better but can't remember too much now.

#2 was actually my favourite rock record of that year until I heard Nevermind. Which was more a comment on my boredom with R&R than my love for G&R. Haven't played it in yrs, but still fondly recall "You Could Be Mine", "Civil War", "Locomotive", "Shotgun Blues" and a few others.

Haha, what about that "Oh My God" soundtrack song from a couple of years ago???
