    Wow...this is way better than I thought it would be clicking on it out of curiosity. They did Glenn and Jimmy proud. It was authentic and heart felt and not a lark. Axl's voice was unreal.

      Axl’s voice is ethereal!

    Got to see him sing this in person a couple days ago. It was one of the highlights of a totally awesome show. Beautiful vocals and guitars!!

      It was a highlight for me because I saw Glen Campbell play it on one of his final shows.

    That line will never NOT give me chills (you know the one), it doesn’t matter who sings it.
    All that being said, what a great cover

      This was the first show in the Moda Center since the pandemic started. I was ecstatic and looked up the set list before the show. I saw Glen Campbell do this on his second to last show ever.

      I was floored when I was watching it. Just saw Glen perform it a few years before at one of his final shows.

    Me in the beginning: Wrong song for this band, they will ruin this for me.
    Me listening: HOLY SHITBALLS AXL’s MATURE VOICE IS ON POINT.

      I always wondered when artists do a Las Vegas residency ever since I watched the movie Jersey Boys about Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons does that mean the artist owes money to the Mob and that's their way of paying back?

      I totally agree. I saw Glen Campbell play it on his final tour. Such a classic. I had to capture it. I saw it was on the set list from the previous night’s show.

    Axel Rose would make a great President . Seriously in comparison to Trump and Biden -he would be a thousand ti,es. Ore competent than either of the two clowns Trump And Biden. 😊

    Axl is no Glen Campbell. He should have left this song alone. Good grief man tune it up, there's people out there.

      C'mon, while I appreciate them doing this it is not better than the original. That's a ridiculous statement. And as far as a guitar player Slash is a very good rock guitarist. Glenn Campbell played all styles and with a ton of the biggest names in the business. It's good to be a fan but don't just drink the Kool Aid.

    • @johnrutlandmusic

      There are of course dozens of truly gifted musicians spanning the decades. What makes Glen Campbell unique, is that his pitch-perfect vocals matched his fretboard skills. But also, if you listen to his 'live' work here on UA-cam; (where there's numerous versions of the same song and where there's a bit of a guitar break)....you'll hear that guitar break played differently each time! Such was his talent, that he could (and did) improvise on the spot! Interestingly, it is BECAUSE he didn't read music, that this improvisional quality pervades his work i.e. he is not restrained by some notation on a page but instead was free to create fantastic guitar breaks and fills and this is the precise reason he was in constant studio demand, by the biggest fellow recording artists.
      Even with Alzheimer's, he appeared latterly on Jools Holland with a sublime version of W.Lineman....think he was 70 at this point....it will blow your mind!
      Rest in sweet musical peace Glen.
