2023 and this song is still so impactful. I think if this was performed today, you would not hear chuckles or laughs, but you’d also wouldn’t hear the crowd offended by the lyrics. I think it would be something to watch in awww.
This song brings bad feelings in it's words. Your comment just agree with them and shows what you have inside your soul. Rich or poor, we're all people trying to survive and be happy, no matter where...
If it wasn’t for the controversial lyrics I think this song would have been a huge classic that was played on the radio and everywhere else for decades
Well, don’t feel so bad cos we have at least 20 other classics from this band. I kinda like that this one is just for us… the people who were there and know it exists and had the album. On another note this video is incredible. What a time capsule. Wish we could see more from this session. It must exist.

Thanks to Mark Dice for reminding me of this song. Now, I’ve seen a live recording of it. I remember the days when this song got a lot of attention in 2018. I was in class with a joke of a substitute teacher, so it was one of those fuck all, do nothing, periods. I took off my jacket and my friend noticed I happened to be wearing a Guns N’ Roses shirt. He then asked me what my favorite song was and I said “it’s so easy”… or “patience.” He said… well, have you ever heard “one in a million”? I said I couldn’t recall… so I played it and we shared the earbuds. He was eager to see my reaction as the lyrics went on and I was a little shocked but I liked the song. During this, a girl in front of us asked what song we were listening to. I told her, and to go listen to the song. After about a minute went by, half the classroom turned into a real life Twitter debate. Some were arguing over what the best gnr song was, some were arguing over whether the song was racist, and some were disgusted that some have never even heard Guns N’ Roses!!! Axl had no idea that 30 years later, 34, now…people would still be talking about this song.
Cadê os Gunners do Brasil?????!!!! 🎉🎉 Falando daqui de Manaus!!! 💘🌹 E sempre vou comentar esse video enquanto eu sobrevivar nesse mundo maluco!! 1 setembro 2023 Completando 1 ano do melhor dia da minha vida!! Showzaço o Guns fez aqui em Manaus!!
Always been my favorite gnr song, first time seeing this video, so intimate and raw! Always will be my favorite, gnr with izzy is what made them!! So glad I got to see them back in 92 as a whole minus Steven adler! Was my first concert and remains my favorite! They did acoustic set player lies, but in all honesty don't remember if one ina million made the cut, talking almost 30 yrs ago!! But I appreciate this video brings back old memories!
If this ever gets censored then all of NWA, ghetto boys , biggies crack commandments and all the other good music in the world must be censored. Say no to censorship.
This concert is brilliant, I hope someone can enhance it one day. Glad to see the Gunner's do still have a heart, not usually them, but their record labels. I would have been about 16 or 17, when this was done. Started to listen to metal in my second year of secondary school 13 or 14, worked after school till from 10 to 15, used to listen to Pop back then. When I got to about 14 (According to Mum, my school mates used to hang out with me in town on a Friday night and party, one of their brothers was a little bit older, but had been listening for ages, so we used to go and sink a few beers and watch, what we had recorded onto VHS on the telly, still have those tapes) my best mate was into it and lean't me a few Cassettes. Had been working spent my teenage years torn between musical ambitions, education, and main interest ICT (Gaming back in those days). Might give it a go, should have the tools and hardware and A.I. does a good job. Did my first recording onto my old tape recorder whilst getting over a hangover and my mates got hold of it. Was called Granddad at the Ritz, that tape after that. It was terrible, with no Reverb or Echo. No wonder it takes so long to sing properly, then every now and then One in a Million like Axl turn up with a voice that was strong, able to do vibrato whilst sustaining notes and has the full range from F to F, some think he might ever have got higher. I did find a raw cut of them with no production year ago. It was also pretty rough, but it was from a concert. And they used to always sound terrible in the 90's until digital music/equipment took over. I wonder if they all have a copy, that they put on at parties from anyone still around?) In my top 5, probably 3, when I was younger and Lies and Appetite first landed. Was 20ish when Use your Illusion did, some of the songs on those two albums, resonated a lot with me then. Probably why I've managed to stick around, no matter how hard I tried. Lost a lot of friends to the lifestyle over the years. Ironically got sick, so had to give most things up, otherwise I would have been gone probably in a year or two and ended up so far away, working in a government job. No drinking or anything for 9 years. But kept on playing till I had to sell my gear and leave home for the first time (Small town's eh). Only 52, going by all my favourite bands still around, plenty of time, to make it. I managed to get on a CD Cover a few years ago, but it was a bit of a Gimic, by artist. But still super cool and he plays with Blaze Bayley in Europe. Amazing Classical Guitarist, does some GNR covers. Check out Thomas Zwijsen on TH-cam, here is a song link th-cam.com/video/uECVm6KDWdM/w-d-xo.htmlsi=niRpsyNJD2B5WmbX or www.kingofthestrings.com also has a .com address.

I love this song Axl says it like it is not afraid to speak his mind.The world needs more songs like this.But unfortunately everyone is afraid to speak their mind.
I wish they would play it as well, but they caved into the political correctness. I was going to buy the box set until I found out this song was removed. So much for the most dangerous band right. Just sad.
Axl Rose got accused for being a racist a homophobe and a hater for this song, but he wasn't any of those things he was just sharing bad experiences he had.
This is my favorite GN'R song ever. I can listen to it 24/7 & never get bored. It REALLY sucks that they can't play it live and left it out of their Locked N' Loaded Box Set.

Now waiting for a melting millenial snowflake or a phone zombie to write the usual genius reply 'OK boomer' to prove his mental disablility to the world.
because the music is haunting and amazing, but too bad Axl could not resist the urge to include racist, homophobic, xenophobic lyrics in order to manufacture gravitas and controversy. The sound would have still been great without the intentional shock value lyrics

Amo essa música, e conheci maioria das músicas do Guns, felizmente fui ao rock in Rio, nunca irei esquecer, tempos maravilhosos , essa música é a mais diferente e que parece uma bebida viciante.
Everyone gets this song meaning wrong, it's about a guy from a small town trying to get a bus ticket at the greyhound station. Your basically right next to skid row. At this time there where blacks selling gold chains and cops at every corner, it felt like a foreign country. 6th and Los Angeles is a corner in downtown LA.
@@Taz.K I don't consider those slurs. I consider them snowflake-designated-socially-unacceptable words that are actually quite accurate. Gay people spreading STD's and colored people always stealing stuff. What more is there to say?
The Reason they never performed the song live is because Slash refused to because off the offensive racial words in it and Slashs Mother Was Black so yeah They Played it twice one in a recording and one live as you see now
That's the line-up right there! The universe blessed us with those five misfits finding each other to make timeless music together. You're one in a million, baby...
I've always said that GN'R = THESE 5 GUYS ONLY
I play this all the time on my guitar and nobody gets it,....

No matter how you feel about some of the lyrics, it’s an absolute banger.
Yessir!!! It’s a sign of the times they lived in. It’s not meant to be or mean anything but that. ..Well said 🫡
Can you imagine a band as big as they were releasing something like this today. Has always been one of my favorites of GNR

@@ИннаГруздова-с7н Наверняка вы НИКОГДА не захотите включать эту песню на рабочем месте. Это может быть мгновенным увольнением с работы.
@@nicholaszeman4045 это в какой стране за прослушивание этой песни могут уволить с работы?
@@ИннаГруздова-с7н Я уверен, что в любой стране на рабочем месте, где есть трудоустройство по желанию. Более того, вас могут уволить, если там будут геи и если они зайдут и услышат эту песню. Там, где я живу в Америке, есть демократы и республиканцы, либералы и консерваторы. Там, где я работаю, преобладают либералы, там проходят дни Гордости, часто символизируемые цветным флагом. Демократы/либералы поддерживают геев и их политику, в то время как республиканцы/консерваторы выступают против их политики, такой как гражданские союзы. Если кто-то войдет и услышит эту песню, его могут уволить, особенно в состоянии произвольного поведения. Факультативный означает, что человек может быть уволен по любой причине или без причины, если это не дискриминация.
The lyrics are thee greatest!!
Masterpiece
Wow. When the world loved Rock N Roll!! Long gone
The world loves rock and roll more than ever.. It is just that the corporate media got so huge and clueless then only promote garbage now.. So all the good and great new rockers are all DIY. But it is all still here
@@michaelcraig9449 Most of the millenials and later Zombie Generations don't know what true rock 'n' roll is. And they don't care either. They have their phones and pussy JustinBieber style music to orgasm with. But as the great Neil Young once wrote . . . Rock 'n' Roll can never die. Now waiting for a melting millenial snowflake or a phone zombie to write the usual genius reply 'OK boomer' to prove his mental disablility to the world.
Why is this track not one of the greatest tracks ever?
because the music is haunting and amazing, but too bad Axl could not resist the urge to include racist, homophobic, xenophobic lyrics in order to manufacture gravitas and controversy. The sound would have still been great without the intentional shock value lyrics
@@WildbatBros yea I agree, the story of a narrow minded racist homophobe despite the good music. I am not offended I know racists bigots and their enablers exist
Он является самым лучшим , но он по глупости запрещён .
It is
It wasn't politically correct. 😁😁
GOOD OL' DAYS...when "political correctness" & "censorship" was not out of control.
GN'R = THESE 5 guys ONLY.
Yes sir! ( yes ma'am) Saw these 5 guys 2x . Once in worcestor- was epic. Once in foxborough- not epic. Lol
But that's GNR
@@thomasjdm7388 Unfortunately, I was born too late (1980) to see any performance of the original lineup. I wish I could travel back in time & watch every single performance of the original lineup.
Not using racial/anti-gay slurs is not about political correctness. Its about respect, maturity, and being a decent human being.
@@brockhampton3078 cry more lmao, nobody has to bend their ass over for you, and respect goes both way when it comes to words. Live and let live.
@@brockhampton3078 Exactly. It's only commonsense.
It’s on their Lies album,great song.
Im here because i miss Axl Rose too much
This is the perfect song for what Americans are experiencing right f'n now!
Playing it on my old axe in 2022. Still love it.
inherited walmart acoustic with 5 strings = axe
Damn. He could really sing then. Even just talking he sounds special and emotional. He was definitely one in a Million
To jest klasyk jestem🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱 słowa piękne
Good song, one of their best 👍
Одни из Наилучших ! ! !
Their best song ever
This video is amazing!!! ALWAYS LOVED THIS SONG🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🔥🔥🔥🔥🎸🎸🎸🎸
Amo essa música, e conheci maioria das músicas do Guns, felizmente fui ao rock in Rio, nunca irei esquecer, tempos maravilhosos , essa música é a mais diferente e que parece uma bebida viciante.
Adoro Gun´s mas essa música é literalmente racista você deve saber disso.
Três ou quatro versos supostamente são
There has only been a handful of really great Rock singers and Axl in his youth is up there with the best of them amazing voice he had
for sure
Hail Izzy Stradlin'
Triple love it
Great song!
Someone needs to find this Axl and show him the current version.
❤ love love love
Handsome Truth took me here.
Everyone gets this song meaning wrong, it's about a guy from a small town trying to get a bus ticket at the greyhound station. Your basically right next to skid row. At this time there where blacks selling gold chains and cops at every corner, it felt like a foreign country. 6th and Los Angeles is a corner in downtown LA.
Offended NPC's ain't got time for context homie. Axl just keeping it real.
Priceless!
Best GNR song ever! This is the only GNR band for me: Axl, Slash, Izzy, Steven and Duff!
Baddest ass voice in rock I sure do miss it. Axl was a beast and NO ONE could match his voice.
Your one in a million ,xxxx
Awesome song.👍
Needs to rereleased classic
Gun's and roses..☠️☠️☠️☠️🎸🎤🎤 Awesome
My life, my Soul, my heart... ❤
My Beautiful, Darling DM AR🌹🌹❤️❤️Your one in a million and more. No I won't make you cry DF AR🌹🌹❤️❤️
This is Guns
Wgere the hell is this and when? Amazing bit of music history! Thanks for the upload, unbelievable!!!!!
CBGB is the bar and it's around end of 1987 I totally forgot
This Great!
Thanks for sharing ❤️❤️
That's good stuff.
Thank you. 👍🏼 🤟🏼
joder, lo que daría por verlos en esos sus tiempos dorados 😔❤❤
Hubiera sido algo increíble, entre sudor, saliva, patadas y puños al ritmo de cualquier canción de ellos
" They come to our country
And they'll do as they please "
Classic GnR!
Still here 2023
wow such a hidden treasure!
This song could never exist in todays day and age!
But fans like you and me can keep it alive and make sure that people know about it.
Because it uses slurs?
Though it should! It’s art & art don’t need no censorship
@@Taz.K I don't consider those slurs. I consider them snowflake-designated-socially-unacceptable words that are actually quite accurate. Gay people spreading STD's and colored people always stealing stuff. What more is there to say?
Yet it does
Even MORE truthful in 2024...
Love it !
Ok racist and homophobic
Le random, youre definitely a kiddie toucher
@@gregkeller80 Me a peadophile ?
@@evatzug why tf are you here
@@gregkeller80 I know your a pedo fact !
Encore!!!!
Axl is a good singer
The Reason they never performed the song live is because Slash refused to because off the offensive racial words in it and Slashs Mother Was Black so yeah They Played it twice one in a recording and one live as you see now
Not true
Axl and slash are pieces of cat shit
@@slash4real872 This should be TRUMPS song @t his R@llies for 2020 LOL
@Buster Heini They @lso pl@yed it Live @t the Limelight CLub in NYC in l988. There;s @t le@st 2 llive performances.
@Buster Heini probably. Or at least cousins
