Definitely a GNR reference. Rob made references to a lot of other songs in his songs. There's this one. "The sign in the road says I'm going nowhere"
is a nod to "Two Fists Full of Nuthin" by the Bruisers. "Maybe someday we'll find ourselves a way" is a nod to "We'll Find a Way" by Ducky Boys. "This
is the end" on the Ramallah EP is a nod to The Doors. "Hello. Hello again" from Sinners & Saints is a nod to Oasis. And then there's a reference to
John Lennon's "Gimme Some Truth" in a song on "Kill a Celebrity". I think he does it tastefully because there's a fine line between a tribute and a
rip off. |
Yeah, I knew a few of those, my favorite being the Bruisers nod. I knew you were into GnR bigtime but wasn't 100% sure if Rob was.
