Question
Hi misses Josee :p,
I have a few questions about a song, It so easy. I'm going to write an article about it and  I would like to have some information: how many did they sold, when was it released, what's the song about, something you see in the never released video, and a whole bit small facts so actually everything. I hope it isn't to much but thank you anyway

Yves

Bonjour Yves!

Avec ton nom, j'imagine que tu parles français?  If you don't speak french, tell me, I'll write in english :)

It's So Easy fait parti de l'album Appetite For Destruction qui a vendu plus de 28 millions de copies.  Duff McKagan, le bassiste de GNR, nous dit que la chanson porte sur la vie des membres du groupe à ce moment là:

"It's an account of a time me and him [West Arkeen], and also the rest of the band, were kinda going through.
We didn't have money, but we had a lot of hangers on and girls we could basically live off of...
Things were just too easy. There's an emptiness; it's so easy.
Duff - Hit Parader March 1988".

L'album a été lancé en 1987, et un vidéo pour It's so easy a été tourné en 1989 mais n'a jamais été sortie.  Une version modifié du vidéo et sortie plusieurs années plus tard (1999).  Je n'ai jamais vu la version qui n'a pas été sortie, mais dans le vidéo de 1999, on peut en voir quelques images.

À bientôt!
