At 70 yr's old I'm glad tha I never had a " comfort zone" when it comes to music! A particular genre may not be among my preferences, but I have great admiration for talent lyrically and instrumental. Having grown up in the '60s I was very fortunate to experience the sounds of the time!
Music is the one thing that bridges the gap between generations. I would love to have been there for the sixties and seventies music. I was a teenager in the Late eighties early nineties and they just don't make music like they did in the Sixties and seventies. And I loved the nineties, They just don't seem to have the same depth to their music.
The #1 best selling rock debut of all time. No other debut rock record and a lot of pop rap and country debuts can’t touch it either. The singer axl rose stepped off the bus in In LA for the first time coming from Indiana and this grizzled homeless dude was looked at him and said “Welcome to the jungle baby, you gonna die!!!” That was the inspiration for the song and first part of the video with street hustler then the hooker walking by. Love the look on his face as the song builds.
@@steelyspielbergo - Ah, I've got to disagree. The chorus to "Think About You" is amazing. If I had to pick a weakest link on Appetite it would be "Out to Get Me."
Back in the eighties in never would've imagined that in 2023 I'd be walking down the grocery store isles hearing this song playing. With time comes change.
Every reactor (with any music taste) makes the same stank face when hearing this song for the first time, it’s hilarious and never gets old lol. Great reaction!
Not bad once they eventually get on stage or if they decide to even show up, I'd be willing bet their tour manager was bald, he most likely pulled every last strand of hair from his head, the poor bastard.
And it was......1986 when we first caught this on the bus ride home. And from that point on a GNR fan for life. And all that came with it. Some damn near 40 years later this album is still the most rocking album out there. A pantheon of 80's rock.
Yes! Great reaction. My favorite band all time. This song was off Appetite for Destruction, one of the greatest debut albums ever. Sweet Child o Mine and Paradise City are the other hits off that album you should check out. The only had a couple more albums after that because Axl Rose, the singer, was a diva. Amazing voice, but he was constantly late to shows and it led to conflict mainly between him and Slash, the guitarist. Slash is amazing too, you can definitely hear his guitar skills more on the 2 other songs I mentioned. Happy exploring!
Slash & Duff returned to the band in 2016 & the band is really tight & happy these days. Axl & Slash had worked through their old issues, which are no longer relevant to them touring & rocking together :)
In an interview Axl said that he got the inspiration for this song from what somebody told him when he first got to LA. The pictures in the video show some of what it was like fresh off of the bus and trying to find his way.
First time I heard this song too tonight. It was their break through song. Before this song they were a local LA club band. Song is about young musos coming to LA in the 80s.
My favorite band of all time it’s like listening to an orchestra or a master class, every time . Please do sweet child of mine it’s their first biggest hit it’s insane ❤
I heard an interview with Axl once where he said the inspiration for the song was a kid gets off the greyhound from huckleberry anywhere and steps into the LA/Hollywood jungle where they are prey. Hence welcome to the jungle. I came to SoCal a 17 year old hick so totally relatable
I've seen one where he said he was in New York lost in Harlem and asked a black guy where they were at and he told Axl you don't know where you are your in the jungle baby your gonna die and that is where the song came from
This song is about him moving to LA and getting into the concrete jungle. Mostly the drug game doing and selling drugs - "if you got the money honey we got your disease" "you can take anything you want but you better not take it from me" etc. etc. He moved to LA with like $10 at the age of I think 17 to become a rock star and had to survive. That's what it's about. Actually right as he got to LA he got off the bus and walked up a freeway and a started talking with a black guy that told him and his friend "Welcome to the Jungle"
This is my first time seeing one of your reactions and you picked a great song for me to start off from, cause I love this song and band. So keep up with the hard rock and metal songs, cause trust me, you won't regret it...oh by the way, I absolutely love your hair!
I can't remember the exact year it dropped, I'm thinking 88-89 but it was legitimately a nuclear bomb dropping on the music scene when Appetite for Destruction, Guns N Rose's first album dropped, they went from a relatively big draw rock band in the LA scene to exploding across the entire world in a matter of months. Every single single they dropped from the album went straight to the top 5-10 on billboard over and over and over again reminiscent of another classic masterpiece, Thriller. Different genre, similar impact. They just had that "thang" whatever IT is, they had IT IN SPADES AND SPADES. To this day, the only other song that even comes close to this is AC/DC's Back in Black to me. It's a certified skid row classic.
The raw energy alone on this album is amazing. Add to that the fact that all 12 songs could have been hit singles in and of themselves and there's your recipe for the best debut album of all time!
It’s great to step out of your comfort zone! There’s so much good music out there to discover from everyone!!!! 😅❤ I’ve had a crush on him (when in his prime) for a few years now lol. Come on now they’re not inappropriate - it’s a song 😝. Check out Sweet Child of Mine, Mr Brownstone, November Rain, etc
Since you loved that beginning, you should check out some LIMP Bizkit songs. They have that same hyped-up aura. Makes you feel like you can tackle the world!
Excellent analysis Guns and Roses is 🔥🔥🔥recommend you . Pearl Jam Do the evolution or Porche live unplugged 1992 already in that year supporting Pro Choice contradicting MTV one of the best bands of the 90s and they are still playing and touring the planet, totally recommended Regards from Chile South America..
You are on the right track. The band was huge in the beginning but imploded after they got the fame and money. A common story. When he was young, lead singer Axl Rose was sexy, talented, and intense. But if you listen to Sweet Child of Mine you'll hear another side of him and the band. Welcome to the Jungle and November Rain are still my favorite songs by GNR.
My favorite band of all time. Of course Paradise City and Sweet Child of Mine are two songs to check out but one of my favorites and a completely different sounds is a song called Estranged.
But but but but.... I don't see any "THANKS" button to click for $$'s! Did you forget about that "THANKS" button? I hope not, because it, you'd be missing out on a lot of $$$! And I just discovered your channel last night, and this is your third reaction that I watched. Both Righteous Brothers songs & now, G-N-R. You just gained a sub for life! I absolutely LOVE your style of reacting! You put so much true emotion into every word you say. The look on your face, shows exactly how you feel about whatever you are reacting to. You are genuine and REAL! And I better STFU now, because I could ramble on endlessly, about how truly AWESOME you are!✨🌹☮🤘🏻👍🏻🔥🏆
GnR are awesome, back & then & also nowdays. They have a few albums which you can check out, but they still rock. Axl Rose (lead singer) has an amazing vocal range, great charisma, and also has a reputation which goes ahead of him from many years ago & he has come a long way since then & he is not deserving of all the bad comments he gets, in 2023, he is such a brilliant frontman, he is a good guy, loves & cares about his fans, still rocks the stage with GnR & he seems to be very happy these days :) Please do more GnR reactions :)
Back in the day this was the first music video I ever saw in my life. Before I watched it, music really wasn’t important to me. But after I saw it, boom, I was all about all of the songs and the albums and the artists out there.
still the best selling debut album of all time, considering "albums" are rarely sold now it will remain so even after nearly 40 years, that speaks volumes
Love this reaction! Between the lead singer Axl Rose & lead guitarist Slash.... girlllllll... my 1st 2 crushes! Lol... Please react to more Guns N Roses 🥰🙏🏻🥰 The entire Appetite for Destruction album is 🔥
Slash, with the long fall of hair and the hat, one of the most creative and accomplished guitarists of all time.

Greetings, I grew up the same in the 70's✌✌Blues, country, jazz, hard rock, metal, fusion, pop. Good is good!
"Those noices are inappropriate."
Axl: "you're welcome." 😅
Listen to rocket queen
The #1 best selling rock debut of all time. No other debut rock record and a lot of pop rap and country debuts can’t touch it either.

AXL ROSE. One of the greatest frontmen of all time.
Apart from the riots and fights he has caused this comment is one of the most true comments in the entire world
And now hes two of the greatest frontmen of all time.
Freddie mercury and lead singer from steelheart would like a word
Axl Rose the biggest cry baby in rock and roll
I can't think of one better. He got in the zone like michael jackson did. Just without the pedo stuff.
Every song on that album is a total banger!!! Not one filler!!
To me My Michelle is probably the worst song on the album and it’s still pretty damn good lol
@@mtdreams72 No, it's one of GnRs best songs!
@@mtdreams72 Hell naw it's one of the highlights
@@mtdreams72 My Michelle is on the best, Think about you is the worst
@@steelyspielbergo - Ah, I've got to disagree. The chorus to "Think About You" is amazing. If I had to pick a weakest link on Appetite it would be "Out to Get Me."
prime axl was untouchable, peak vocal mastery
Lead singer Axl was born in Indiana and took a bus to Las Angeles. The culture shock was huge 😊 he was 17 or 18 years old at the time
"Those noises are inappropriate"...and then she rewinds lol
"Those noises are inappropriate." EXACTLY right. Lol. Best ever.
I was strickly an R&B,rap music teen until this fell in my lap. Music has no discretion about who it grabs. Total Jam!
Back in the eighties in never would've imagined that in 2023 I'd be walking down the grocery store isles hearing this song playing. With time comes change.
Bless their beautiful hearts. I have no idea how they’re still all alive. I’ve seen them live twice at work in 2017 and 2021.🔥🔥🔥🔥
SLASH BABY ‼️‼️‼️❣️❣️❣️😍
YAAASSSSS
This is a masterpiece. What an intro from a band to the world.
5:53. On the first listen!☠️Right on!🌸🌿
Yeah I hear it. I heard it when it came out and loved it lol.
Every reactor (with any music taste) makes the same stank face when hearing this song for the first time, it’s hilarious and never gets old lol. Great reaction!
No Worries Ashley
Axl would dance with you in a heart beat ❣️❣️❣️
Axel Rose is lead vocals. These guys were incredible to see live with AC/DC.
AXL*
Not bad once they eventually get on stage or if they decide to even show up, I'd be willing bet their tour manager was bald, he most likely pulled every last strand of hair from his head, the poor bastard.
This is most likely how it went.
Before a GnR tour 🤘🧔♂️🤘 "is everybody ready to ROCK?"
Half way through...😟🤞
At the end...👴🏳
@@irocitZ , every time I went, they showed up.

Appetite for Destruction is arguably the best rock album of all time. 🔥
And it was......1986 when we first caught this on the bus ride home. And from that point on a GNR fan for life. And all that came with it.
Some damn near 40 years later this album is still the most rocking album out there. A pantheon of 80's rock.

@Keren Olivero true. Axl grew up, no more drug abuse for everyone. Basically everyone became an adult.
The Greatest Debut Album.
The best selling debut album worldwide of all time
For me, your smile was the masterpiece 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Welcome to the 80’s! Specifically Los Angeles in the 80’s( jungle)
It's good to get out of your comfort zone!☺️❤️ Axl Rose...he's so freakin young here!
The best part of this video is you saying “this is inappropriate” and then proceeding to rewind to watch it again. Well done.
Me in the 80s with a lot of prince songs😂😂
Back then everybody listened to everything and it was great.
In an interview Axl said that he got the inspiration for this song from what somebody told him when he first got to LA. The pictures in the video show some of what it was like fresh off of the bus and trying to find his way.
First time I heard this song too tonight. It was their break through song. Before this song they were a local LA club band. Song is about young musos coming to LA in the 80s.
One of my favorites from early childhood because of my older sister who was a metalhead and raised me on music like this
My favorite band of all time it’s like listening to an orchestra or a master class, every time . Please do sweet child of mine it’s their first biggest hit it’s insane ❤
That record is on of the purest forms of hard rock ever....its a diamond. Glad you like it. Great era....miss it like the deserts miss the rain....
Inappropriate!!! Rewind and play again!! ❤
I heard an interview with Axl once where he said the inspiration for the song was a kid gets off the greyhound from huckleberry anywhere and steps into the LA/Hollywood jungle where they are prey. Hence welcome to the jungle. I came to SoCal a 17 year old hick so totally relatable

November rain is a great one by Guns n Roses.

Yes the Hollywood Club scene where all the Rock Band played and lived was very WILD. 😅😅

Pure art,pure masterpiece!
To me this is one of the best GNR videos ever.
Honey Congratulations YOUR LIFE STARTS.....NOW!!
It's an allegory about life!
They have literally 30 great songs
This was my sophomore year in high school. Epic! Many live shows too
OMG they were all so young !!
You nailed the theme of the song EXACTLY. Welcome to the jungle outside of your comfort zone. It only gets better.
The raw energy alone on this album is amazing. Add to that the fact that all 12 songs could have been hit singles in and of themselves and there's your recipe for the best debut album of all time!
Thanks for reacting to this classic song Ashley! So happy you enjoyed the song. Love watching you jam to this song. On to 15K subs!
Yes, it is a masterpiece
No doubt bags of talent
Great commentary. It is a jungle in the streets yesterday past and today.
Great balls of rock n roll fun.
Hell yeah, you rocked it! Subscribed! Rock on!
You nailed it
Not many know that not long before Eazy E passed, he & Axl were talkin about workin together. Shit would have been straight fire.
RIP Eric.
The 80s baby, best fun time to be a teen!!!!!
Hes the most bad ass front man of all time, W Axl Rose
Wow! It’s like discovering a treasure!👍🏻👍🏻
Axle Rose is his name, the album was " Appite for destruction "
This takes me back many years :)
It’s great to step out of your comfort zone! There’s so much good music out there to discover from everyone!!!! 😅❤ I’ve had a crush on him (when in his prime) for a few years now lol. Come on now they’re not inappropriate - it’s a song 😝. Check out Sweet Child of Mine, Mr Brownstone, November Rain, etc
Where you been This was voted the number one rock song of all time!
BANGER 💣 You NAILED the interpretation
Great reaction
Since you loved that beginning, you should check out some LIMP Bizkit songs. They have that same hyped-up aura. Makes you feel like you can tackle the world!
Hi my beautiful Queen.😍 Thank you for this reaction. This is one of my favorite songs too.👍
Excellent analysis Guns and Roses is 🔥🔥🔥recommend you .
Pearl Jam Do the evolution or Porche live unplugged 1992
already in that year supporting Pro Choice contradicting MTV one of the best bands of the 90s and they are still playing and touring the planet, totally recommended
Regards from Chile South America..
Yeah, we heard it in 1989 and have been listening to it since. They have about 10 more just as good. Enjoy!
The 80s music was a master pieces
best reaction to Guns I’ve seen 🤙
Grats on opening your mind to other styles of music!
I’ve been working for this guys a couple of times. Fun 😎 Great reaction 🙏

One of their first songs. Normally no hair spray. Epic band. November rain. Axl rose lead singer. Slash guitarist.
He's not a performer nor an artist he's all of the good good musician in one body... he's Axl Rose baby🤘🤘🤘🤘
This is a masterpiece 🎉
I don't care about Guns 'N Roses, I just clicked in because your picture on the thumbnail is amazing.
My favorite band of all time. Of course Paradise City and Sweet Child of Mine are two songs to check out but one of my favorites and a completely different sounds is a song called Estranged.
High energy rock.
But but but but.... I don't see any "THANKS" button to click for $$'s! Did you forget about that "THANKS" button? I hope not, because it, you'd be missing out on a lot of $$$!

Welcome to one of the best rock band
Your my new favorite! Now its time to watch Paradise City, ok? XXxx
GnR are awesome, back & then & also nowdays. They have a few albums which you can check out, but they still rock.
Axl Rose (lead singer) has an amazing vocal range, great charisma, and also has a reputation which goes ahead of him from many years ago & he has come a long way since then & he is not deserving of all the bad comments he gets, in 2023, he is such a brilliant frontman, he is a good guy, loves & cares about his fans, still rocks the stage with GnR & he seems to be very happy these days :)
Please do more GnR reactions :)
Fun fact: the guitarist Axel Rose also played the guitar solo on Beat It by MJ
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
One of the best musical experiences you'll likely ever have is listening to GnR's 'Appetite for Destruction' full album from beginning until the end.
this is something you have to taste - Beth Hart - Am I The One Live At Paradiso
Back in the day this was the first music video I ever saw in my life. Before I watched it, music really wasn’t important to me. But after I saw it, boom, I was all about all of the songs and the albums and the artists out there.
WELCOME!!! KEEP GOING!! GNR KIX A$$!
Axl was so pretty when he was young.
please do "sweet child o mine" and "november rain" they will blow your mind and give you an idea of how epic this band is..
if you think those sounds were inappropriate maybe skip Rocket Queen (though it's one of the best tracks on appetite)
And genuine, too (allegedly), if I remember the story correctly
Axl Rose is a vibe!
Every person who has ever seen Morgan Freeman's _'Lean on Me'_ has already heard GnR's _'Welcome to the Jungle'_ in time.😁
The whole appetite for destruction album is a masterpiece. Could be the greatest album of all time.
still the best selling debut album of all time, considering "albums" are rarely sold now it will remain so even after nearly 40 years, that speaks volumes
Love this reaction! Between the lead singer Axl Rose & lead guitarist Slash.... girlllllll... my 1st 2 crushes! Lol... Please react to more Guns N Roses 🥰🙏🏻🥰 The entire Appetite for Destruction album is 🔥
