Man, I have loved this song since 7th grade. Probably the first rock song I ever got into.

I remember in 7th grade we had dances every month, and if anyone wanted to bring a tape, the DJ would play it. So my friend and I brought Don't Cry. Hahaha everyone hated it and called us "headbangers" (evil word at my jr. high) for the rest of the year.

    Did both versions have the same video?

    Have you seen 'the making of', PBM? I cried the first time I saw it, still get teary eyed sometimes...him & that beautiful smile...just magic.

    no
    the alternate version was just them performing on top of the building.

    the VHS for the Making of Don't Cry is a must have for any GN'R fan!
