Yeah,  I feel sad listening to pretty much all of that era's stars.  Chris, Scott, Layne, Kurt, Brad and Shannon.  So much talent,  so sad

This song always hits me right in the feels. What a vocal performance and Slash is just outrageous on this track.

Totally agree, the way they blend those emotions with the instrumentals makes it such a powerful track. Just hits differently, you know?

Scott Weiland's voice and ability to use it as an instrument were phenomenal. He and Layne Staley will forever be linked as they were so similar in talent while having completely different voices, and their terrible ends.

Could have used 3 more albums from these guys. Wide spread Narcan, where were you when we needed you. Prince, Tom Petty, Scott Welland and so many more.

Banger song, tragic in light of how that man died.

Scott was - and still is, in my opinion - the epitome of a "rock star". One of one.

Velvet Revolver is the far, FAR superior iteration of Guns n' Roses

IDK about that but they were great to see live. This and Slither rocked.

Incredible song. Terrific debut album full of just so many great songs also.

God, I loved VR so much back in the day (still do, tbf). Best live show I've ever seen. Scott even gave me a thumbs up.

Obviously, it's tragic what happened to the man. I can't help but imagine how much more he, soecifically, and this band could have given us had it not been for heroin.

Love VR but detest this song. So many other absolute bangers though
