Axl Rose amazing performance with his natural voice in London July 2 2022

[@rios39]

It must be frustrating that he can’t do the high vocals with the rasp power but singing like this makes him still sound better than 95% of anyone else

[@Meridianmachine]

This sounds like Axl again. So much better than the other way. Use your natural voice Axl, still got it.

[@stefstef8812]

This sounds fucking awesome. His voice is so powerful, he should sing like this from now on. I don't care if it's one octave down, it's amazing.

[@Skelesys]

this is the way he should sing from now on! his clean voice was always amazing and gives his throat a bit of rest...

[@nebpenney8010]

If he did this but belted out the odd scream here and there i think people would would apreciate it way more

[@cddc785]

Someone in the band please show some balls and tell Axl he sounds better with this lower voice. We know he's always had this in his locker, it just baffles me why he chooses not to use it. The 'never to return' at 1:44 sounds so fucking cool.

[@Isabella-wm3th]

Estranged with that low vocals was EVERYTHING!!!!!

[@Skelesys]

the way he approaches Nightrain, with a much lower range, make it sound cooler, even more similar to live versions from the 90s. The low raspy sounds great

Axl´s voice is a trademark but let´s be honest about it. We don´t want him to hurt his voice more than already is. But this sounds better than Mickey´s voice. Now is time for him and the guys to work in a new sound if they want to continue. And for those who had the pleasure to listen to the original VOICE and see the band at their peak. Accept the fact that we will never hear it again but at least we have the original members still playing.

I don't understand why so many people keep lying to themselves. If someone was covering a Guns song and singing it like this, people will fill the comment section with insults. I'm a big Guns fan, but we need to accept Axl's "old school" voice has been gone for years now, this lower sining might be a better way to cope with it compared to his Mickey voice, it would be nice to hear whether they can make new music in this range

This is his natural vocal register. He's done the damn falsetto for 40 years now but he can't keep it up anymore and it sounds bad.
