+Morgan Karmichael I do agree normally but to play devils advocate here the show is about the vocals. It's a singing competition. The guitar would have taken focus away from that especially since her vocals were actually quite weak
eddie sanders Yes which is basically what my comment should have suggested.... however it is a singing competition, when you have only around 3 minuted to do your thing you are not going to use a minute + for soloing I think I would have screamed like a girl however if Slash had walked out half way through to kick he arse
+Sir Boast-a-lot I totally agree. The guitar solo IS the song. That being said, this girl will one day be famous is she gets the righ mgr. and song. Simon always looks to the business end of singing as you should if you want to make a living at it.
+austin teutsch mmm beg to differ slightly i love this song because of the interplay between axls vocals and slashes quitar licks When axl sings slash is quiet and when slash winds up axl is quiet that is what makes that song for me (oh and the awesome bass and rythme that holds the song together)
+Brett Mciver Thank God!! Someone shares my opinions.. Axl's vocals in the original are incomparable..and the feel which comes through his screeching chorus and the outro!!! gives chills everytime...same case with almost all other song in AFD..!!
Sorry about SLASH but he's got to understand this even the people have to understand this Lucie only has 4 to 5 minutes per performance on X-Factor so that's why they had to skip his guitar solo from the beginning.
Ant B Nope not really. There are plenty of bands that can cover songs without screwing them up. But songs won't be forgotten or won't "fade away" because they are that great. Songs like 'Sweet Child O' Mine' is one of those songs.
They don't do these songs to be just like the original artists. They will ALWAYS modify it for the singer's voice. ALWAYS! I thought she knocked it out of the park. Great job!
Ohoho u r so stupid that you goin on the writing mistakes before u saying something about the message?! Haha if u would speak my language i would destroy u in any way haha biatch
I get standing ovations at karaoke when I sing this, or should say attempt to sing this, not that I am a great singer but for having the balls to try it, I take my hat off to this chick she did a really good job on a very difficult song and trust me I am a big axl rose fan
I'm sure musicians would have loved to play the whole song but i'm pretty sure they have to cut it down to 3-4 minutes, otherwise i'd go there and play shine on you crazy diamond lol.
The competition is not about playing guitar. If she loves the song maybe must try to do a full version elsewhere, live and with a good guitar player for the solo, or a good band in general. Then we can see and judge.
Mate, listening to Guns N' Roses makes you know as much about music as the other 100 mil people that bought they've records (rofl GnR are sleaze/hard rock actually but nevertheless)
Demosthenes9999 No, making the song "her own" is stupid, I always hated when people would take the song and change the rythm and the style.. makes no sense, if the song is made that way, there's no point in changing it.
I do think Simon knows talent when he sees it. I got to give it to him, he is a genius. He owns the X Factor. He is the creator, producer and judge in it. He is like god in this show. Simon left American Idol and that show is struggling now.
It's in the paperwork you have to sign. The producers and editors can do whatever they want with you and your style once you are accepted. Which is why the contestants often get makeovers and have to sing songs that they don't really like.
I saw that some of u said that it's nothing without the solo, i'm a singer and a guitar player and i love this solo very much but u must understand that this is not a solo competition, it's a vocal one and this girl has covered this song in her own style and sung PERFECTLY!!!!!!! Instead of wasting your time by watching music videos if you are not a passionate of music just watch Teletubies or Spongebob etc etc............. Short minded.......
Why do musicians always feel like they have to explain to the rest of us what we like and don't like.It's arrogant of you to think that we don't understand. Music is for the people of the world as is TH-cam,not just those who have a gift of music or for those that you deem passionate. I don't feel like we are the ones short minded here.
one problem.. we ALL have the original G&R RECORDING.. which is as perfect as a song can get. That recording is damn near the TOP of recording history. NO ONE can match the recording
she did the song in her own style, was watching a interview on BCC America they were talking about differnt acts doing Guns & Roses songs, with Slash . Slash said he would love to do this song with Lucie Jones he thought she had a Great Voice & did it in her own way. He went on to say that Lucie & Fergie were the only 2 women he ever heard that could do justice to this song
people before you have any right to complain about any of these singing competitions. you need to take a short course in musical appreciation. these are covers for a reason, to allow the person show off their talents, not to be the artists that originally made the songs themselves
God bless! Believe in your heart and confess with your mouth that Jesus Christ is our Lord and Savior and died on a cross for our sins so we may live again in Heaven where there is no pain or suffering! God is our Father and Creator and raised His Son Jesus from the dead! Confess and repent of your sins and God will freely forgive you! Trust in God and live for Jesus as He died for you! 💕
that comment's old af but it's not that they can't sing,it's just that Axl's literally has a vocal range of 6 octaves aka something most humans dont have lmao
Ok,I never saw this before, and, after reading all the comments I was ready for a disaster. Is she Axle? not even. But wtf ppls?. It was a dam good, fresh, and somewhat original piece, some of the background music could have been switched just a bit to fit her better, but I think she did very well.Unlike some of you, I actually used to perform live, and to see her go from that 40's? ballad or whatever it showed in the flashback, to this- very good. Not Excellent, but with some changes it would get there, and maybe even be a good cover song to add to her upcoming album.
I see so many negative comments but she sounded good. Her voice had some grit which a song like this needs and its a show with an alloted amount of time for each performance so if they included the solo there wouldnt be much for her to showcase her vocals. Her look screams rock and with the hair and everything she reminds me of avril levine. I think she did a good job and doesnt deserve all the negativity in the comments. I do realize this was years ago but when lucy was on x factor i quite liked her.
Lucie, you have a great voice, you are a good singer. But this is G n' R, it's rock, you don't have that kind of voice to cover this. Axl had, he did it fucking awesome.
Pretty shitty rendition of this song! Absolutely absent was the lead guitar work which was so crucial to this tune! They must be run of the mill background musicians!
+Timms MC but sometimes people try to hard to get that certain voice and end up strained in the throat and trashing the song. this is truly a difficult song to sing.
Congratulations, giving the world a new version of an awesome song... i dont mean to offend anyone talking ''she ruined an old classic'' and shitt its just a new version... GnR are still legends she shown good taste and shown her voice in a great way...:)..some ppl pretending they are hardcore GnR fans talking how noone can replace axl WHICH SHE DIDNT TRY.... enjoye her singing guys... LUCIE KEEP KICKING ASS!!!!
Great job of a tuff song truth be told I only watched it because I love the song Danni minogue sure knows how to get the best out of her contestants just look at this years Aussie x factor winner Dami im I mean What a Change from geek to Pop & Rock freak !
Lucie gave the performance of the entire series. Lucie has really risen as a shining star and rocked it this week.
Lucie, that was a most wonderful song ever!!! Very, very, very well done!! I'm most proud of you, and your singing was super great!!
Axl was the only one who could sing this song.. No one else not even axl rose today
true
true shit
Ofcourse
Nescafe basement sweet child
first of eleven?
From so many years ago you stood out in me and my daughters eyes.You did amazingly well!Great voice
You can't sing this song and not include the guitar solo. it just seems broken if you do
+Morgan Karmichael I do agree normally but to play devils advocate here the show is about the vocals. It's a singing competition.
The guitar would have taken focus away from that especially since her vocals were actually quite weak
eddie sanders Yes which is basically what my comment should have suggested.... however it is a singing competition, when you have only around 3 minuted to do your thing you are not going to use a minute + for soloing

+austin teutsch mmm beg to differ slightly i love this song because of the interplay between axls vocals and slashes quitar licks
When axl sings slash is quiet and when slash winds up axl is quiet that is what makes that song for me (oh and the awesome bass and rythme that holds the song together)
+Brett Mciver Thank God!! Someone shares my opinions.. Axl's vocals in the original are incomparable..and the feel which comes through his screeching chorus and the outro!!! gives chills everytime...same case with almost all other song in AFD..!!
I came in, paused the video, read the comments, had few good laughs, and then I left. :)

And I did that too.

Yaa
Sorry about SLASH but he's got to understand this even the people have to understand this Lucie only has 4 to 5 minutes per performance on X-Factor so that's why they had to skip his guitar solo from the beginning.
FABULOUS Lucie!! Just adored your amazing singing. xx
This is the song we didn't know we needed from Lucie Jones, brilliant!
Respect to this girl but it was difficult for her to reach Axl's scale. That defines Axl's greatness, that man was genius, his attitude ruined him
His attitude made him axl rose if not he's just bill bailey.
Hes not ruined at all..he needed time to face his demons and grow out of his anger..His anger was honest and that gave us Appetite For Destruction!!
@@flyme2themoon720 Exactly. He was always genuine
The magic that Axl Rose and Slash created is completely lost here.
OMG.... pop artists shouldn't cover GNR
For real
Is this GNR or puppies and roses n wtf is with those high pitched frigging vocals
Rahul drums project M I mean, Axl's vocals are pretty high pitched but the music sucks.
if the next generation don't cover these songs they will fade away....its about respect
Ant B Nope not really. There are plenty of bands that can cover songs without screwing them up. But songs won't be forgotten or won't "fade away" because they are that great. Songs like 'Sweet Child O' Mine' is one of those songs.
lol the guitr player is so good at posing, but where is the solo huh?
Charaf B. It’s so fake. He’s strumming way down the neck while the main riff is going on.
They don't do these songs to be just like the original artists. They will ALWAYS modify it for the singer's voice. ALWAYS! I thought she knocked it out of the park. Great job!
Wow that's the best version of that song I seen in a long time wow good work Lucie
I think that Lucie’s a great singer!!!
She put her own twist on this song!!!
That’s why it isn’t liked
She's no Axl. If you cant do Axl don't try Axl.
no1 cant do axl
R.L. Vanzant Myles Kennedy did a better job look him up
@@charliekline3975 no
HIS NAME IS AXEL ROSE NOT AXL JUST TRYING TOO HELP YOU OUT
@@justinl.shults7217 his name is Axl. wtf is wrong with you
There are a few songs that woman can't cover in a good way.....This is one of these songs!
No fergie actually sounded pretty good when she played this song with slash
akasha khan Ok if you think so! I can't agree with that. Fergie's performance was still like a Bitch would do.
Christoph Gaber You're a tone deaf fool, Fergie killed it. Youj're the bitch lol.
Habe? Go get an education idiot.
Ohoho u r so stupid that you goin on the writing mistakes before u saying something about the message?! Haha if u would speak my language i would destroy u in any way haha biatch
you nailed it. I grew up listening tothat song😂👍👍👍
I get standing ovations at karaoke when I sing this, or should say attempt to sing this, not that I am a great singer but for having the balls to try it, I take my hat off to this chick she did a really good job on a very difficult song and trust me I am a big axl rose fan
How can you not think this is insanely amazing?! She completely owned it! Definitely should of won that year
Udhhdhudhufhuduuddudurhudh8dudh
Wow wow this girl is stunning!!!! Her voice is just amazing!!💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
No solo = half of the song missing. This is big poop. Nobody can play guitar these days? Oo WTF?
the guitars were not plugged in.... haha!
x48042
I haven't seen that :P That makes it more of a poop! :D
I'm sure musicians would have loved to play the whole song but i'm pretty sure they have to cut it down to 3-4 minutes, otherwise i'd go there and play shine on you crazy diamond lol.
Now a days they didn't appreciate solos/instrumentals, it bores them, that makes the music today lame.
The competition is not about playing guitar. If she loves the song maybe must try to do a full version elsewhere, live and with a good guitar player for the solo, or a good band in general. Then we can see and judge.
I love it! She's so beautiful.
Her singing is amazing, but you can't just do this to a gnr song. This is almost as bad as the banjo remix of paradise city.
Mikeology check out cover by a Pakistani in nesface basement Pakistan
GOOSEBUMPS. Well played!!
How can the judges comment on her performance when they know next to nothing about rock music, let alone Guns N' Roses?
Because the objective isn't to mimic/cover the song, rather, to take it and make it her own.
Mate, listening to Guns N' Roses makes you know as much about music as the other 100 mil people that bought they've records (rofl GnR are sleaze/hard rock actually but nevertheless)
I know, we need Axl Rose, Michael Starr, Gene Simmons and David Lee Roth to judge this
Demosthenes9999 No, making the song "her own" is stupid, I always hated when people would take the song and change the rythm and the style.. makes no sense, if the song is made that way, there's no point in changing it.
she ruined the songs meaning.
I do think Simon knows talent when he sees it. I got to give it to him, he is a genius. He owns the X Factor. He is the creator, producer and judge in it. He is like god in this show.
Simon left American Idol and that show is struggling now.
Sweet child of mine with a nice country accent. Beautiful !
crazy how much she's grown and achieved she is literally my favourite singer and actress on the west end
It's in the paperwork you have to sign. The producers and editors can do whatever they want with you and your style once you are accepted. Which is why the contestants often get makeovers and have to sing songs that they don't really like.
I love this song and I love to hear it Being covered too.
Just brilliant.

Myles Kennedy is better at singing SCOM than axl these days although I agree axl in his prime was in a class of his own
+Neal McCullough disagree with you both, i think step brothers did it best.
+Mansoor Beast
better looking though
+Neal McCullough are u kidding me?? Kennedy is prolly the worts pro singer ive have ever heard

one problem.. we ALL have the original G&R RECORDING.. which is as perfect as a song can get. That recording is damn near the TOP of recording history. NO ONE can match the recording
It was a great performance! Just because it wasn't the performance some of you were used to does not change that.
I love that voice. Amazing.
A different, yet amazing version of sweet child o mine
Well done ;)
Brilliant effort, loved that!!!!

I liked it more than others ive heard do it like Fergie, and Crow, and Myles Kennedy. At least she didn't destroy it. Tough to top Axl.
brandon242 true
True and Fergie has a Nice voice but Just didnt hit the right notes.
Damn doing rock is crazy hard very few do it right.
oh girl sing what you want , but never ever a song from Guns n Roses...never please , all will loose that`s so
Siggie Rosengarten check out cover by a Pakistani in nesface basement Pakistan
