This is the best version of don’t cry I’ve ever heard,axel’s voice is so pure and haunting .I’d love for them to release a cd of just their early demo’s just to hear how clear axl’voice was,just beautiful.
it's 1985. recorded in Mystic Studio in 1985 along with WTTJ, Think About You, Back Off and Anything Goes. This version is in standard tuning. In 1987 GN'R played Eb Tuning
The guitar solo sounds fantastic in that key. I do like the key change that happens in the record version. Because it adds a lot of dramatic affect to song and Axl absolutely crushes it. This is amazing as well. One of their best songs for sure.
I sang this at work yesterday. Raised an eyebrow with my boss. "Are you singing Guns N Roses?" "Yup!" I haven't sung this since 1987. I couldn't believe I still remembered the lyrics!
2:49 I LOVE this part! his voice is so soothing, n' comforting, the other night I thinking about how I barely have friends, n' the ones I do have, I don't get 2 see often. I wish I was friends w/Guns N' Roses Original Lineup. My little comfort buddies.
gosh, i hope no one from gnr reads this! they'll think i am rude and crazy! i love those versions too. seriously. but just always wanted one with just axl and when i heard one with him it was even better than i imagined it would be!!! thanks for any info, y'all! or ... if i could get a copy of the one from the 87 ritz show or even a copy of it from the bar performance (not sure what club or bar it was). but those will prob never be available. thanks so much.
Talk to me softly, there's something in your eyes Don't hang your head in sorrow and please don't cry I know how you feel inside, I've, I've been there before Something is changing inside you and don't you know? Don't you cry tonight, I still love you, baby And don't you cry tonight Don't you cry tonight, there's a heaven above you, baby And don't you cry tonight Give me a whisper and give me a sigh Give me a kiss before you tell me goodbye Don't you take it so hard now and please don't take it so bad I'll still be thinking of you and the times we had, baby And don't you cry tonight Don't you cry tonight Don't you cry tonight, there's a heaven above you, baby And don't you cry tonight And please remember that I never lied, oh And please remember how I felt inside now, honey You gotta make it your own way but you'll be alright now, sugar You'll feel better tomorrow, come the morning light now, baby And don't you cry tonight Don't you cry tonight Don't you cry tonight, there's a heaven above you, baby And don't you cry Don't you ever cry Don't you cry tonight, baby, maybe someday Don't you cry, don't you ever cry Don't you cry tonight
Dá para ver que essa música é na década de 85-88, a vos do Axl está semelhante à voz de Patience. Essa versão da música é especial porque poucos conhecem
A voz dele ta tão encorpada nessa versão 😚😚 Linda demais, eu amei! Eles eram como uma chama de tão ardentes, essa música tem um peso tão grande no coração de qualquer um
Yes - the best way to put it. I have a hard time describing it and have said it sounded more sincere, but genuine - yes. I love the 86 live roxy version. It sounds great.
tracii guns once said Axl had been working on november rain since at least 1985, now i understand what he was talking about! more than one song was long in the process!
well actually that song has the 2 versions. the other one has different lyrics. and then the original one. but didn't know that there's a first version in 1987
esta es la version (PLANA) esta viene siendo la primera voz sin apoyos, ya que en la version de estudio tiene 3 Tonos de voz suena este y suena uno como en susurro suavesito pa darle mas cuerpo y tambien el Agudo Caracteristico de AXL. minuto 3:15 Amo ese cambio de voz en el tema loco... y cuando eleva la voz, sera el mejor por siempre AXL ! aunque le hayan pasado los años lo sigo viendo como si estuviera joven. RESPECT GUNS N' ROSES !
En la versión de estudio suena la voz de Axl y Shanon Hoon. Axl lo invitó para que participara de la canción. Es más. Él aparece en el video cantando en la terraza del edificio.

And l love this version of this song with the classic 85-90 lineup. I wish they used this version instead of that pointless alternate version with different lyrics. Axl's voice sounds amazing here. He was in his prime
because it is sincere and more natural. that is my feeling on why it touches you more. i never ever liked shannon hoon singing over axl's voice. i mean, why on earth would you layer the vocals of another singer over the vocal of axl rose? who has one of the best and unique singing voices of all time? it made no sense to me. i mean, i know axl really liked shannon and he basically gave him his start by letting him in the studio to play on stuff. so i guess that is the answer right there. no offense to shannon hoon. he is talented. and rip. but, i mean, come on. people wanted to buy a cd with axl rose's iconic voice on it.
Used to play this song in a band in Germany but on one particular occasion I decided to go full Jim Morrison and let's just say I could play it very well !!!
This is a perfect example of how a producer strengthens and also ruins a song at the same time. Mike Clink made this track a star hit when recorded on USE YOUR ILLUSION I, but also took away this magic.
This is not 1987, this is from their first ever studio session in mystic studios of august of 1985, that’s why it sounds so different, it’s identical to the version on the 1985 demos they released with the AFD box set, here’s a link to WTTJ from the same session ua-cam.com/video/Vvo8EwgWzY8/v-deo.html
Fun fact, this is one of the first Guns n Roses songs they ever wrote as performed as a band. They actually originally wanted to put it on AFD but decided to save it for later.
this also goes to show, how much they did the production and arrangments in the songs, they just needed better audio quality and a little cleaner sounds, and that was it
Was this ever officially released? How did you get your hands on the track? The version on the Lock n Loaded Box Set cassette is rather different. Thanks though!
This is the most beautiful version of this I've ever heard and possibly the most beautiful gnr performance ever

Talk to me softly, there's something in your eyes
Don't hang your head in sorrow and please don't cry
I know how you feel inside, I've, I've been there before
Something is changing inside you and don't you know?
Don't you cry tonight, I still love you, baby
And don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight, there's a heaven above you, baby
And don't you cry tonight
Give me a whisper and give me a sigh
Give me a kiss before you tell me goodbye
Don't you take it so hard now and please don't take it so bad
I'll still be thinking of you and the times we had, baby
And don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight, there's a heaven above you, baby
And don't you cry tonight
And please remember that I never lied, oh
And please remember how I felt inside now, honey
You gotta make it your own way but you'll be alright now, sugar

A
Please versi tracii guns or original line up 1985
This is not 88
This is his voice in 1985 if you listen to the early 1986 shows.
A voz dele ta tão encorpada nessa versão 😚😚
Linda demais, eu amei! Eles eram como uma chama de tão ardentes, essa música tem um peso tão grande no coração de qualquer um
Pra mim é a melhor da banda, essa música tem a cara do Guns, principalmente essa versão em específico
1987!
For all the hard rock blues songs that GNR performs, this ballad was their first song!
They also have a really good one called Shallow that’s from this era that you should check out too it’s awesome
This version sounds more genuine
Yes - the best way to put it. I have a hard time describing it and have said it sounded more sincere, but genuine - yes. I love the 86 live roxy version. It sounds great.
Nothing can beat OG Guns. Its not available.
This is amazing I've never heard this version before until now 2021 insane.
Like this better!
Recorded in 1985.
Omg axl’s voice 😍😍😍🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️ ugh I love it and him 😘😘😘
E eu pensando que não dava para essa música ficar melhor 💖
pensei o mesmo kk
If you listened to the other 1986-1987 live versions
And also the alternate lyrics
Absolutely beautiful.
missed that moments..longing for gnfr forever......
love from Jakarta
Duff's bass part is simply awesome!
My heart is crying 💚 Pure version
Tô viciado nessa versão!!!!!!
Then you would be addicted to the Marquee Club 1987 version too!
Axl nailed the song at the end.

Good job on discovering this and my channel
Hermosa version, la mejor, tenian que lanzarla en el primer album
Slash's vibrato in intro of guitar solo gives me a chill. Album version doesn't have that.
Damnnnn.....I freaking love this
With these guitars tones, reminds me Nazareth!
That's one of Axl's inspirations
Yes like love hurts..I know axl liked them
I discovered the song "Love Hurts" because of this comment. Thank you, my friend!
@@Songguy1985 I also recommend that you listen to "where are you now" by Nazareth
Actually this song came from "Dancing In The Moonlight" song
The last of their kind... still missing this kind of music
i like ur pfp
And still missing the golden days of Ajax as king of Europe...
Steven adler on drums!
Very cool.... shows how the song evolved
if this was on Appetite as it was supposed to be it would’ve been the biggest hit on the album
Yeah this is so raw. Maybe we think like this because we listened the album version so much.
Yep. also because Power ballads were near their peak during the mid 80's. OG Civil war had potential as a hit too
Why wasn’t it on Appetite?
Talk to me softly
There's something in your eyes
Don't hang your head in sorrow
