I love so much this album and I think this song in this version is a masterpiece. Axl' s voice is amazing so cool in his different tones.... He' s a great great rock singer.....my favourite
They made this whole ep in 1 day literally they all sat down and made this and patience is a huge hit but all these songs are awesome its just a acoustic jam take it for what it is ...it sold a lot of records
One In A Million is definitely worth a reaction. Adults tip toe around lyrics now like we’re infants. It’s a song that tells a story, some people may not like it but some people don’t like a lot of things. I think songs like One In A Million are the point of music reaction vids. Listen to the song and like it,love it or trash it when it’s over.Just my opinion.
One in a Million is such a misunderstood song BUT I would HIGHLY recommend not reacting to it has the N-word, the word Faggots etc are in the song. Remember it was 1989 and even then Axl got a ton of shit for that song. They also didn’t perform it live. Slash, who’s half black, approved the song Bc he knew what the viewpoint of the song was meant to be. But in 2021 I’d stay away. Bc unless you grew up and listened to the countless interviews from the band, especially Axl, had to give about this song you will, like most, not get the point of the song. It comes off as very racist and homophobic but it wasn’t. But it’s not easy to know that. So I’d stay away.
Just pointing out you have listened to this song before. This is the acoustic version of "You're Crazy" which you listened to when you were listening to Appetite for Destruction.
Love GNR and this album!! So glad you are doing this one. As far as One In A Million it depends on how you view the song. Some people think that it is his personal views and some people think it is how he was viewed by others. I did see an interview with Slash saying that although he didn't totally agree with the lyrics he absolutely knew that Axl wasn't a racist. Hope that helps you a little. Great reaction!! 🙂
One million is a great song. Like he said he came from a small town to start a new life in a big wide world. He never encountered black peoples or gay people, the words he used in the song are the only words he knew to describe them they were the only words that were used. They were the times. He would never use them again.
Best description of this song! You can change your world view and you are not to blame for something that your parents and surroundings teached you growing up
@@katara69 why Thankyou. They are Axl’s words one way or another from interviews where he had to defend himself and the song which he had every god damn right! . 👍🏽
I heard this when I was 8 years old (1987), my brother brought this album home and I put it on the record player. It was the first time I heard the F word in a song, but I wasn't phased. It depends on how it's used I guess. 😁
I forgot how good this song was Axls voice on this whole EP was literally incredible his vocals on this patience and one in a million and used to love her is just amazing
One in a million is a song Axl wrote about when he first moved out to LA from Indiana. He rode a Greyhound bus the whole way, and when he got off the bus he’s writing from the point of view of a scared and prejudiced character, which is who he was at the time. Was he still that way in 1989 when he wrote the song? Opinions differ. They did remove it from future editions of the album. I get what he was trying to do, writing from the point of view of an angry, hate filled person, but I wish he wouldn’t have used those words. As he said later, too easily misinterpreted. Even if you say you’re playing a character, people we think that’s how you really feel and hold it against you. Musically, it’s brilliant. The words just overshadow everything.
Well if you can get past your Hangups and believe what Duff that it's just a song from a specific perspective then you will find it one of the million is one of the best songs you've ever heard. It is epic
I'm crazy (haha) about this slow motion of "You're crazy" that I can sing by heart for the fun. I definitely agree with you when you say that "his voice is the thing carrying the entire song" because even if the music is quite nice, it might sound somehow a little flat compared to everything he's doing with his voice. Try to sing it with a karaoke version and you'll feel really lonely. Haha! That being said, I also enjoy this one because it shows his voice's potential. I wouldn't really compare it to "November rain" which has a completely different rythrm and feel to it and of course a spectacular instrumental accompaniment. Let's say this is another one of GNR's facettes. Perhaps you prefer a richer musical background?
Axl's vocal performance is definitely what makes this song. I enjoy it for that reason, although I still prefer "Used To Love Her", Move to the City", "Patience", and "Mama Kin" over this song. I really love Axl's voice on this album, it feels a bit more raw. Maybe the AFD tour wore it a bit ragged.
I'd say you've listened to about 70% of their stuff, albeit half of the remaining songs are covers. As far as this song goes, I think its a banger and Axls vocals are what carry this song in a good way. I like it better than Appetites version. Also One in a Million is a great song and yes, you can put it up on TH-cam. It just aged poorly considering the time period we're in right now
I would still react to one in a million because it’s a good song. Musically it’s great but the lyrics are controversial. Take out the racial slurs and it’s a great song! There are some reactions of one in a million so I think it’s possible to react to it without it getting blocked. If you do react to it, keep in mind that Axl is basically telling his own story of moving from a small town to LA, having nothing, and what he experienced
I subscribed to you because you're one of the only reactors I watch that was willing to take such a deep dive into GNR, and I've been waiting for you to get to this albumn! I like the acoustic version of You're Crazy better than the Appetite For Destruction version. The best version of this song happens to be the 'clean' version that they did on a late night tv show (Guns N' Roses You're Crazy Live 1988 in case you're interested and I would love you forever if you actually reacted to it because NO ONE does). The instrumentation and Axl's voice in that version meld a lot better, his voice is perfection in that song (think: if Robert Plant of Led Zepplin and Janis Joplin had a love child, it would be Axl Rose in that performance). th-cam.com/video/wWOebV2lLqc/w-d-xo.html
Same Song as on appetite obviously alot slower. This was the way the wanted it to sound originally but were made to speed it up for appetite for destruction
One in a million is a very good song but the homophobic and racist slurs in the lyrics are definitely an issue. It is a product of its time. I loved it as a teenager but I personally decided to stop listening to it more recently due to the lyrics. I would suggest you react to it anyway and then make your own mind up.

His Voice 👌🤘
Incredible!
Amazing
I love so much this album and I think this song in this version is a masterpiece. Axl' s voice is amazing so cool in his different tones.... He' s a great great rock singer.....my favourite
Axl's live vocal on this track entertains me to no end
I love Axl Rose best Front man to walk around
💯
when he stayed for the whole set, no doubt about it. Not the most "professional" performer in rock history. When locked in, Axel 1 of 1 🤬
Best voice in rock history
It's way way up there, definitely.
They made this whole ep in 1 day literally they all sat down and made this and patience is a huge hit but all these songs are awesome its just a acoustic jam take it for what it is ...it sold a lot of records
You have heard it. It’s on the Appetite For Destruction album. Have you forgotten already?
Indeed, it's a slow motion of that one Nick; please check it again ans compare the differences. It's really cool.

Axl shines with his vocals in this song
This song was made to be slowed down the groove is so funky but when they do it live with the same groove but electric guitar its soooo hard
Just pointing out you have listened to this song before. This is the acoustic version of "You're Crazy" which you listened to when you were listening to Appetite for Destruction.

React to this song in concert, You are crazy live Argentina 1993
Well if you can get past your Hangups and believe what Duff that it's just a song from a specific perspective then you will find it one of the million is one of the best songs you've ever heard. It is epic
In my opinion you should react to gnr live they are just too good in concerts

Love this- had it on cassette and my best friend and I sang it with every nuance his voice had- good times 😊👌
Ayeeeee
I ♥️ this song, it's the best in this Album...but it's my opinion 😅😅😅
You didn’t realize you’d heard the song before
Best version. Although the live version which is this one only faster(but not the afd one) is pretty damn cool
I'd say you've listened to about 70% of their stuff, albeit half of the remaining songs are covers. As far as this song goes, I think its a banger and Axls vocals are what carry this song in a good way. I like it better than Appetites version. Also One in a Million is a great song and yes, you can put it up on TH-cam. It just aged poorly considering the time period we're in right now
Yeah this song slowed down is such a funky groove it fits it so good def better then the appetite version
Have to totally disagree. His voice is amazing and it is my all time favorite.
Mine too
Crazy not to enjoy guns and roses with one of the best rock vocals in history.
You should react to "one day" by Lovejoy
I would still react to one in a million because it’s a good song. Musically it’s great but the lyrics are controversial. Take out the racial slurs and it’s a great song! There are some reactions of one in a million so I think it’s possible to react to it without it getting blocked. If you do react to it, keep in mind that Axl is basically telling his own story of moving from a small town to LA, having nothing, and what he experienced
It was a different time, before this whole snowflake insanely PC stuff, when a person could say things and not get crucified for it. Great song.

His best vocal performance hands down
@@katara69 Agree 100%!
Yes I love that performance, they also did "Used to Love Her" at the same show. I often recommend for people to watch it.
@@michaeljfoley1 Yes! I love the performance of that one, too. There's a video of both performances together floating around on here.
Same Song as on appetite obviously alot slower.
This was the way the wanted it to sound originally but were made to speed it up for appetite for destruction

One in a million is how the world was at that point in time, that's it's,its a great song one of my favourite up the gunners
@@davesquashmcconvilleOh, I do agree. That is why I did mention it being a product of its time. That is how things were back then.
