Sandi Thom - November Rain (Guns N Roses Cover)

During my world tour stop in Scandinavia and inspired by troubles in my relationship at the time, I took to the famous beaches of Esbjerg, Denmark to film a video for my cover of Guns 'n' Roses 'November Rain' - coincidentally, in the rain, in November! One of my fave songs of all time.

My first wife left me after 25 years together. Today, February 23,2024 would have been our 50th anniversary. This song hits extra hard tonight.

How lovely! Sandi does this song justice and I wish her all the best. She can hold her head up and know that she has a legion of fans loving her. This is better than the original in my opinion as she lived it and survived and moved on. I listen to this song every day and have since KZbin offered it. She's beautiful and an amazingly gifted artist. 💋 💕 🌹 rosita xxx

Right now seeing this and hearing your voice and knowing the spiritual path that I am on it made it clear that the final step was in letting go of the blame placed upon me.

[@Nihilianth]

"Way better than Guns and Roses"? You're completely off your rocker. This rendition is absolutely beautiful in its own way. But, definitely not "way better." You don't understand this song... Or music in general....if you think this is "way better." The original goes through all the traditional stages of grief, which includes anger. Axl Rose's raspy grungy voice is emotionally raw, and perfectly imperfect. There's a reason she chose this song to cover. It inspired her. People don't cover other musicians' music if they don't pull inspiration from it. So don't knock GnR. They're the ones who wrote the lyrics and the tune.

[@darkshadowlord8394]

This version. That voice. Way more moving and real than I have ever heard.

[@scottshamblin1962]

Dear Sandi, I am a singer, songwriter, performer. Your interpretation of this song blows me away. You inspired me *like crazy* with November Rain. I am in Mexico, learning this on my Nord. The Fender Rhodes track is UnGodly, wow. Your vocal emotion and believable storytelling aspect of this song. Wow, you freaking nailed it sister. Peace and *keep this up* wow, you are sooo good.

[@magalia.7552]

When I look into your eyes I can see a love restrained But darlin' when I hold you Don't you know I feel the same? Nothin' lasts forever And we both know hearts can change And it's hard to hold a candle In the cold November rain We've been through this such a long long time Just tryin' to kill the pain, Love is always coming, love is always going No one's really know sure who's lettin' go today Walking away If we take the time to lay it on the line I could rest my head just knowin' that you were mine All mine… So if you want to love me then darlin' don't refrain Or I'll just end up walkin' in the cold November rain Do you need some time on your own? Do you need some time all alone? Ooh, everybody needs some time on their own Ooh, don't you know you need some time all alone I know it's hard to keep an open heart When even friends seem out to harm you But if you could heal a broken heart Wouldn't time be out to charm you? Oh, oh, oh And when your fears subside And shadows still remain, oh yeah I know that you can love me when there's no one left to blame …OOH YEEAH So never mind the darkness, we still can find a way 'Cause nothin' lasts forever, even cold November rain MMM… Do you need some time on your own? Do you need some time all alone? Ooh, everybody needs some time on their own , don't you know you need some time all alone.

I love hearing original GNR songs in these cover formats, because it just proves time and time again how incredible Axl and the gang are at writing phenomenal music and compositions.

[@97warlock]

GNR didnt make it awesome .... We did. The ones that spread the word & talked anything about it, and called mtv & requested it. Otherwise its just a regular ole song, nothin special. ..... BUT Time has made it special, because it takes us back to a simpler point in time. Weve heard this song SO very many times that we learned to like it & learned to appreciate it, But upon very first hearing it the very first time, it wasnt special or incredible at that time, but now it is. -if that makes sense.

[@szoya5365]

yes he was a genius songwriter, all their songs are top hits not just 1 per album, unlike nowadays most "stars" do... and yes, those were simple times, but songs were a lot more complex, now we live much more complicated times, but today's pop hits are so much more simple....

@@97warlock man... I get what you're getting at, but there are certainly songs, and unquestionably for a number of us this song, that are special from the moment you first hear it.
