- Estranged. It’s no coincidence that the best songs on both Use Your Illusion albums are their longest. Axl Rose was always way more complex than your average hair metal bozo, and he pours all that complexity into Estranged, a rushing torrent of emotion and the highwater mark of not just the Use Your Illusion period, but of GN’R’s entire post-Appetite For Destruction career.
- Civil War. The song that infamously did for Steven Adler – the drummer was fired after failing to nail the drum track after umpteen takes (drugs might have been involved).
- Coma. Use Your Illusion I’s closing – and best – track is as claustrophobic and disorientating as November Rain is grandiose and daft. Slash and Axl have separately said they were inspired by bad drug experiences, and Coma is an overdose set to music – a jarring, 10-minute journey that phases sharply in and out of consciousness, complete with bleeping ECG and the distant gabble of doctors’ voices.
- Breakdown. The greatest Use Your Illusion track that nobody ever talks about. A southern rock song played bunch of Hollywood brats, the seven-minute Breakdown has almost as much going on as November Rain: hammered piano, a twanging banjo, multiple time changes, see-sawing guitars and a spoken word section lifted verbatim from cult 1971 movie Vanishing Point – it’s all in this exhilarating, kaleidoscopic, hugely under-rated mini-epic.

Oct 3, 2023 · It’s, without a doubt, one of the best songs from the Use Your Illusion recording sessions.
