No comments for this song yet? I really like this song, and it's one of my favs from the album. It's an uptempo song with riffs and a sound that reminds me of classic The Cult (the band Ian Astbury fronts). From the guitar riff at the intro, to the 2 guitars during the rest of the song, it's a kick-ass tune. Plus, the guitar solo 3/4 of the way through the song is awesome, and leads perfectly into the chorus. Great guitar work from Slash om this track.
As for a meaning, I think this might be one of the more ambiguous songs on the album. It's definitely a song to get you hyped-up and feeling some energy. I think he's saying that we need to face our fears. The fear you feel deep inside isn't real, but more like an illusion that needs to be destroyed in order to move forward. The fear can also destroy you, but you can't escape it, you can't run forever, and you can't hide. So you must fight it, there's no other choice. For me, the part where he says "Rock-n-roll" is like saying "let's do this" or "time to kick some ass".
