One of the most recognizable guitar riffs in history. Slash is a BAD MAN. 🎩🎸🚬
heck yeah...i learned that sht in the late 90's for a class talent show
I so loved the riffs and solo's in this song.
He's not a bad man. He's certainly bad ass though!!
Slash is definitely one of the greats!
The solo in this is a fave of mine. Slash is a god. The pause, the wah, the mutes. An epic 20 seconds
When my daughter was in high school, this song came out. We pumped this song when I would drive her to school events. She has blonde hair and blue eyes so when I hear this song now, it's her I think of. She's almost 50 years old. It's still her song. Loved your reaction, guys. Thanks for the journey back in time. Take care and be well. Peace.
God bless you hang in there
I could have written exactly what you wrote @cnatview. Identical scenario clear down to the blonde hair, blue eyes and she’ll be 50 next year, and her younger sister will be 47 this year. Good memories!
Time sure flies eh😎
@@sundayze We have two daughters...one will turn 52 in late August of this year, the other will be 47 in late September. G & R reminds me of their high school years, too - along with Tears for Fears, Sting, the Police and many others. I was still teaching back then, so I was up on all the latest music from my students and MTV at home. I love 80s music.
Glad youve had those good times with youre daughter...I didnt have this with my father or anybody.
I love this song. I'm disabled and can only stand for a very short time but at my eldest son's wedding he had this played and came to the edge of the floor, where I had been sitting watching everyone dance to great rock tracks all night. He came to me and took my hand and held them as we danced to this. I only made through half of the song but it's a memory I will hold in my heart forever.❤🤘💋
What a sweet child of yours
Dios te bendiga 🙏🏻
I consider this to be the most iconic hard rock song of the 1980s. It's a monster of a song.
If you remember Axl Rose playing piano, you probably heard "November Rain."
Yes, I saw you do that reaction.😊
Best GnR song ever and probably the best music video of that year.
@@TheJoshuaPimentel Yeah, this and November Rain.
I love Axl Rose and Guns-N-Roses! ALL of their songs are awesome, especially November Rain!
November Rain is the first video that was made before you tube to reach 1 billion views.
Slash grew up in a very creative family in England. His Mom was a costume designer for John Lennon and David Bowie. His Father was an artist who created album covers for Neil Young and Joni Mitchell. His creative genius runs in his genes!
Thank you for sharing that!
He did start there, but when he was 5 or 6 years old they moved to LA. His mom met his dad while she was in France at a university for Fashion design. Yeah, he did have an Uncle David Bowie.
Slash is 1/2 African and 1/2 British
almost, 1/2 African and 1/2 FRENCH @@scottfoote3099
The girlfriend of Axl is Erin Everly, the child of one of the Everly Brothers. She is gorgeous but bad relationship so it didn't last. I believe this song is about her.
Did you know Axl's vocal range spans across five octaves (almost six) from F1 to B6, the dude could sing. Love all your videos :)
Yeah, and he's also capable of singing semitones
Singer Axl Rose was also classically trained so his vocals are amazing!!!
Axl Rose trained with vocal coach Ron Anderson, who also coached other famous rock and pop artists, but he was not classically trained.
What...? Classically.. nah
Five Octave Beautiful!
"Sweet Child O Mine" is a song that will never die. There's just something about it. They put together something really special with this one. IMO it's to counted among the best rock and roll songs of all time. As close to perfect as one can get. Again, in my opinion.
did you know that Slash never wanted to play this song? he hated it, only at first im sure.
@@sherryjohnson2152 Right? He hated it until It wa$n't $o $tupid after all. I get that. I bet they all grew to dislike it after a while.
@@jafquist27 I'm sure it had become their most requested song. I always loved it from the start. Slash won an award for that beginning rif. I bet he was happy with it after that ;)
I agree.
I agree with you 100%. Very well said. I don't know about you but I grew up in the 80s so I grew up with this music. I love seeing people that haven't heard this music before listening to it and falling in love with it. We need to bring back this kind of rock music and hair metal.
Guns (and Axel Rose) at their best. This was quintessential 80’s rock&roll.
*Axl
Back before i heard he became a dick to his mates
Band named for Tracii Guns and Axl Rose. Tracii Guns left the group before they hit it big and went on to form LA Guns, a group with a little but comparatively small success.
@@ChaosRouge he always was. It didn't come to be known right away
@@bamachine LA guns and Hollywood Rose: Guns N Roses
The opening riff that Slash is playing was something he use to just play as a warm up lick. He said he got it from a carnival ride!! Crazy where stuff like this comes from.!! Legendary!!
Axl Rose’s voice
+
Slash’s guitar
=
One of the best bands ever
The part where they sing “where do we go now” came out of the writing process of the song when they were stuck and Axel said “where do we go now” then he started singing it, over and over. Next thing you know it’s one of the most iconic moments in musical history!
My favourite part! Hate listening to this song on the radio because I'm ready and able to sing along with all the where-do-we-go-now's and they edit it to make it a minute shorter. Takes all the fun out
-axl !-
@@lauramartin7675 agreed. the radio edit is not that good...
You should check out “Paradise City” by them. My favorite GnR song
For real… it’s just one of those songs that groups you and you have to jam with!!!
I suggested Paradise a while ago...an absolute MUST for J and his rock leaning
rileyandmike Don't forget " Patience "...epic as well.
You Could Be Mine is my favorite
I mean...how about civil war??
The tat on Axl’s arm is of Erin Everly, his girlfriend at the time of this song.. her dad is one of the brothers in the ICONIC early rockabilly groups The Everly Brothers. You NEED to check them out. Harmonies tighter than Axl’s pant.
Axel married Erin Everly.
Yessss!!!!! The Everly Brothers
NO Freaking Way 🤓 I never knew that. Very Cool. Preeeesh 🌜🌛
They were rock n rock not rockabilly there is a difference
late but, no. it looks like barbie von grief (the muse of rocket queen, tho- the one who's moaning in the bg was adriana smith) but then adriana and marc canter (old friend of band) said that it's monique lewis (a girl who dated all the first line-up gnr according to tracii guns, n the girl who inspired songs like don't cry (orig), think about you, etc.). nothing are 100% sure so asking axl would be the only way to confirm it lol.
My dad had this song play during his funeral lol. He was 38, I was 15. This song has always been a banger too me since he passed.
💔😢
So sorry that he died so young.....😢
_my mom passed away when i was 15_
_years old and my dad 10 years ago_
My God. I’m just a random person on the internet, but that’s very touching. I’m sure you are very loved 🙏
Slash is actually a far better guitarist now he’s sober than he was back in the day when they were on top of the world.
HAH! .... they were better when they were on Heroin and Skinny!!!!!!!!! C'mon
He was always great, just too wasted sometimes. Izzy balanced him out well. There is something about being young and hungry.
Slash has better feel before, now he's more on fast shredded in terms of fast alternate picking and exotic scales...
@@jgilbertify That's what I say , You could actually die and stay DEAD ,i know from First hand experience. I Drank a fifth of Jack Daniels in 5 minutes ,feel into a coma and stopped breathing 5 times. My Mom got me to the hospital and they kept bringing me back to life . my cousin said I couldn't drink the whole bottle so I showed him,. I was 5''7 120lbs at the time and my blood alcohol Level was,414. I told my Mom what I saw while clinically dead and she asked IF I was ask do I want to go back to my Earthly Life, I told Her I Loved her BU would have left this world for the one on the Other Side. For someone to say Guns-n-Roses were BETTER when they were Skinny and Strung or Drunk is like asking Guns-n-Roses to play Russian Roulette . I also know those who said it wouldn't do that to themselves.
It was must suck to be utterly wrong
The singer is Axl Rose. The combination of Slash's guitaristry and Axl's voice was really something to hear.
Not just those 2 but the whole band. Axl, Slash, izzy, Duff and Steven. At this point in their career the guys were so close they knew exactly how to play together. While I like that Guns has reformed without Izzy and Steven the same magic isn't there.
this is one of the greatest rock & roll songs of all time. it was HUGE on MTV when it came out...HUGE!!! everybody was playing this song. it was the perfect song to come out at the time, and it stands the test of time. beautiful. 🥰🙂
This is the iconic Gun’s N’ Roses. And you just have to love the “hair band”/grunge cross over.
This is my teenage years! My all time favorite song, singer (Axl Rose), band and guitarist! November Rain, Don't Cry and so many more! Welcome to the Jungle baby!
Mine too... Golden years of music and life in generell.
Same here..miss those days 😪
Welcome to the jungle, paradise city, patience, knockin on heaven’s door, civil war…….so many great songs.
Yeah, civil war is a beast! :)
Entire Appetite for Destruction album, every track a classic.
You could be mine
Anything Goes
Don’t forget November rain and don’t cry
One thing that makes this song so unique and awesome is it has and will be copied forever, but will never be better than this performance!
As a kid I thought Guns N Roses had 2 singers. My mind was BLOWN when I found out Axl Rose was one guy
Fun fact....the line "where do we go now?"...was actually Axl Rose asking the group where the song went as they were stuck....so it was just incorporated into the song.
The opening riff was also just a scale exercise that got the Slash touch.
Correct. The band didn't have anything else and Axl didn't have more lyrics, so the producer told him to keep singing that line and the band "jammed" around it.
@@module79l28 I didn't know that. Wow.
It's funny because I found that out a few years ago and I was like "I knew it!". I use to tell people back in the day that it sounded like Axle didn't know what to sing and was thinking out loud. "Where do we go now?"
BTW: "Guns N’ Roses “Illusions Trilogy.” For those unaware, the trilogy consists of 3 videos that form a mini-movie.
The videos in this trilogy are, “Don’t Cry,” and “November Rain” (from the Use Your Illusion 1 album), and “Estranged” (from the Use Your Illusion 2 album)."
I loved those videos when I was a kid. That was around the time artists began really getting into the acting side of videos and not just jumping around a stage.
When ever this comes on radio I cry. I was a teenager when this song came out. Two of my friends would sing this to me. Tragically one of them was killed in a drunk driver accident about a year after this song came out.
The song that started it all off for them.
Saw G'N'R on the Use Your Illusion tour. They played for 3 hours.
The lead singer is Axl Rose
Yes it was awesome I know too
I saw them in '91, a few months before the "Use Your Illusion" albums were released. They played a *great* version of "November Rain," but Axl ruined the concert by storming off-stage and leaving the band out there for quite a long while. He did that again when I saw them in '92. It was so disrespectful to the band and to the fans. I never went to see G'N'R again.
@@christianman73 '91 for me too. Axl didn't leave, but did make us wait over an hour after opening act(Skid Row) finished before they came out to start,
They came to St. Louis a year earlier, Axl assaulted a person in the audience using a camera, then Axl stormed offstage, the broke his mike so the rest of the band followed him, and there was a 3-hour riot where concertgoers were tearing the seats out of the auditorium. Good times. Now THAT is rock & roll!
You and me both. It was back in 1993 in Athens - Greece. I was only 14-15 years old, had no ticket so me and my best friend sneaked in the Olympic stadium 2 hours after the starting time from an opening in the outer fence BUT since GnR were two hours late, we were actually on time! They were late because they had to finish a golf game back at their hotel as they said so people were pretty angry. I missed Brian May and his band that opened the concert but although people were angry at first and Axl had a bad temper about some people taking photos (he had the security guys to "take care" of them), It was something else!!! We had to walk back home after the concert since the subway was closed because....they were late and as you said they had a 3 hours playlist. That was a 7 hours walk from one side of Athens to the other and then we had to endure the panishment from our parents but worthed it!!!... Now that I thinκ about it, people that were on that tour 28 years ago, should get vaccinated as soon as possible :P
My husband dedicated this song to our Autistic son. He is definitely his sweet child(now an adult) Great reaction!
Just curious, does your son also like this song?
@@jamesjohnston9225 He is non verbal and doesn't really react though when he was a kid he use to run around when we played it. He knew this was daddy's song for him!
@@frandistabile4723 Thanks
Wholesome
It feels like no one ever gives Duff Mckagan enough credit for that iconic bass line at the beginning. Instantly recognizable. Loved Izzy Stradlin too on this song.
One of the greatest songs ever in the history of mankind! Masterpiece
It’s easy to forget how well Axl Rose could sing. But Slash has always been a guitar god.
Little known thing, the main riff was actually just a finger exercise Slash did before recording and playing, Axl heard it and wrote lyrics for it
Soooo I had just gotten off work…then I saw her…crossing a field in a summer dress, long brunette hair flowing in the breeze, I whip my car across 3 lanes to go see this vision, this song comes on at that very moment, I started rapping like I never did before, now mind you folks I don’t have much game, cept right then and there…”Been working on it every since I came to this planet…ain’t quite there yet but I’m getting better at it”…
(Pettie Pablo)…I think…anyway she new what song I was referring to and she laughed …can’t help but smile every time I hear this song….whew…peace
This is one of the greatest guitar solos of all time. Probably not usually mentioned in that conversation, but should be.
This song...as a guitar solo with no other instruments or lyrics......is played nightly across America today by ALL levels of bands as their end of night closer.....a classic that leaves audiences begging for more will never die....
this is one of the biggest bands of all time. and the most popular 80s band ever in this genre. axl rose the lead singer has the biggest vocal range in the world of all time of 7 octaves
Journey and Van Halen ruled the early eighties they were followed by Def Leppard Motley Crue and then Guns n' Roses.
Facts.
You are forgetting one other band that ruled the 80's. A little band called Metallica!
@@chrissarina981 guns n’ roses was still the biggest
@@randycomerford2038 again guns n’ roses was still the biggest. i’ve never liked metellica and guns n’ roses has so many more iconic known songs. metellica has about one song that is iconic and everyone knows which is enter sandman, and even at that sweet child o mine welcome to the jungle paradise city and november rain were bigger hits than metallica’s biggest hit
Guns N Roses, Aerosmith, AC/DC, ZZ Top I mean the list goes on, there’s such wonderful music out there! I was born in 81 and my dad was a die hard rock fan so we jammed to these bands at 6am before school 😂
Welcome to the Jungle - GunsNRoses.
One of their greatest songs! And they have so many more! One of the GOATS of Rock!
His name is Axl Rose, which is what he changed it to, after changing his name, "William", to "W." (because it's the name of his father that be never knew), and being in a band called "Axl" that he was really into. I just read up on it; his friend convinced him that he should use the name for himself.
I heard that he secretly admired Axel f by Harold Faltemeyer 😉
It’s also an anagram for oral sex
Man...I miss the 80's. TIME IS THE HOURS THAT COME AS THEY COME JUST TO PASS.
Where do we go now was actually a legitimate question.
My favorite gun n roses song. 😎
Funny thing. Adam Scott was the actor in that scene of Step Brothers doing this song. I played Axl Rose on an episode of Parks and Recreations which he was in. We had a laugh. Love your reaction videos. You two are amazing.
Slash was doing the opening riff as an exercise when Izzy started playing along. Unbeknownst to them, Axel was upstairs writing the lyrics to it.
This song had a special significance in the film 'The Wrestler' starring Mickey Rourke and Marisa Tomei. Especially the final scene...very heart-wrenching.
Ok now I gotta watch the Wrestler
Slash is mixed race, black dad and white mum, born in England - brilliant guitarist, wonderful reaction. Love from Wales. xxxx
I love how y'all moving to different things. She's moving to the guitar and he's moving to the drums the fast beat. I really enjoy your reactions.
Written for his wife Erin, the daughter of Don Everly of The Everly Brothers.
Played a big outdoor concert in Melbourne (Australia) in the early 90s. It was an unholy event :) I was an attending volunteer firstaider. Treated people for heat exhaustion at 8.00 in the morning. Was pulling out people with hypothermia at 3 the next morning. It was insane. ..... I think Slash had a relationship with his guitar. :) Try Welcome to the Jungle
Skid Row. I remember you. My all time favourite song. One of best singers EVER!
You have to listen to the full version it's even better. Absolutely one of the best guitar solos of all time
The lead singer is Axl Rose. You reacted to November Rain another one of their iconic songs
That whole Appetite for Destruction album was 🔥🔥🔥 Axl Rose has such an iconic Rock N Roll voice. Gotta check out Welcome to the Jungle. It’s a workout vibe, for sure!
I think it’s kinda cool that the last lyrics in the song are “where do we go” because they didn’t know what else to say or how to end song so they just sang “where do we go” till the end.
Their masterpiece. Even people who don't dig their music love this song.
Axle Rose the lead singer trained his voice to sound like Janis Joplin.
Bloody hell, he failed miserably then Ian.
Nowhere have I ever heard that.
@@macinfloydvolk it was an odd statement by the singer when asked about his vocal inspiration during an interview.
Magazine not video.
( can’t remember what magazine off hand but it was also in a trivia book I ran across years later)
HUH?
@@ianstradian i think axle may have been extremely involved in mind altering substances and or trolling the interviewer . You know he hates the press
SRV was somehow able to communicate more of his soul through his guitar than anyone who ever lived, you can hear how he felt. Slash is one of the greatest guitar surgeons to ever live, so precise and skillful.
You need to listen to their cover of Knocking On Heavens Door, you will love it!❤
Guns 'n Roses - Rocket Queen (Tokyo)..
Awesome GnR song, in this version Axl's wearing a Ice-T cap and he's rapping some stuff
Never was a fan, but this is truly a Great song. 🤔😎🤗
Ditto. Great song.
The best thing about Slash is that he let Conan O'Brien use his face in place of the "slash" key when showing web addresses on-screen. Well, that and his amazing guitar playing. Comparing him to Stevie Ray Vaughn is like comparing Luciano Pavarotti with Johnny Cash - the music they make is so different that they can't be properly compared, even though both are utterly incredible.
1.9 billion views on UA-cam in only 20 yrs for this song
My marching band did a Guns N Roses show my senior year and our drum majors (the student directors) dressed like one of the guitarists, Axel Rose, and Slash. It was the most fun show we ever did!!
He had the perfect rock voice.👍👍
It was good, but Sebastian Bach was better imo.
Paul Rodgers: Hold my beer.
Misters Planter, Jagger, Tyler and Daltry might want you to hold their beer.
@@paulobrien9572 do you mean Plant, as in Robert Plant lead singer of Led Zeppelin or someone from the peanut company....lol
@@dalefleming6427 Talk about auto correct that is funny of course I meant Robert
From the same time period: "I Remember You" by Skid Row Live at Wembley Stadium (they were on tour with Guns N Roses during that performance and mention GNR at the beginning)... it's an AWESOME song and performance!! ;)
Paradise City, Welcome to the Jungle, Night Train, Mr Brownstone, Rocket Queen, Coma, Don't damn me... The list goes on and on
Did you know that a record producer went to see them play& tried to prevent them from signing a record deal with Anyone? He said if they broke out they would be Huge& they're dangerous!
Singer Axl Rose wrote SWEET CHILD O' MINE for his ex-wife Erin Everly. They had a short-lived marriage. They dated for longer than they were married. Erin Everly is the daughter of Don Everly of the Everly Brothers. Funny thing, Axl Rose had a better relationship with Don Everly than his own daughter did. Last I heard of Erin, she still goes to Axl's shows when his tours hit her town.
The Everly Brothers was the first concert I ever went to. 💜
I highly recommend Tears For Fears "Everybody wants to rule the world" such a great and classic 80s song.
One of my all time favs ...and Head Over Heels
This is my favourite song ever……..brilliant song! 🥰🥰🥰
"where do we go now?" two of the best minutes in music ever
Love them! And Axl’s moves. It eventually became his signature move. The “Axl” . Awesome!!
This song came out when I was in college and I wasn't a fan but as I got older I've found a greater appreciation of the hard rock bands and love GnR. This one and Welcome To The Jungle are my favorites.
You're in the fan club now! Listen and review "Welcome To The Jungle", "Paradise City", "Don't Cry", "You Could Be Mine", "Yesterdays", and "Patience".
This was released in 1987, I was 19, and me and my buddies all wanted to be Slash, the coolest cat ever!!
Sweet child of mine! So iconic! Glad you enjoy it! A favorite!
I was going to recommend this and Poison Every Rose has it’s Thorns.
I worked for Walmart and my store manager did a copy of Every Rose has a Thorn. It was awesome.
Amazing song
Other Guns N’ Roses songs Paradise city, Mr. brownstone, night train, knocking on heavens door, November rain, coma, rocket queen, live and let die, 14 years, and many others
Knocking on Heavens Door live, I can't remember where, but it is so good!
I just looked it up..Live at The Ritz '88
the guitar riff in Mr Brownstone is pure energy
I absolutely love Slahes solo at the end of November Rain!!!!
Guns & Roses have 5 or 6 songs that I really love! and this is one of them, even though I check you all out every day, every now and then I like to go back and see what I missed
Axel from Guns N Roses really Idolized Aerosmith....Check out "Aerosmith - Sweet Emotions - Chip away at the Stone - Mama Kin - Toys in the Attic - Walk this Way"
GnR did covers of Mama Kin and Train Kept Rolling... great covers... originals on Aerosmith's first album and covers on GNR Lies.
Yay you are finally reacting to my favorite song of all times
Welcome to the Jungle squad you'll love it.
Guns N Roses- Welcome to the Jungle
Another awesome banger! You won’t regret it!
Axl's vocal range is going to blow your minds. Slash, well you can guess how he got that nickname, he shreds the solos. Thanks.
I'm glad my association with these epic songs isn't from soundtracks of movies. Lol.
The drummer is fantastic!
Appetite for Destruction ,best rock album ever.
This song came out when I was pregnant w my 1st kid/daughter. This will always be her song to me. The lyrics just make sense. ☮
Saw them in Miami 1991 on New Year's Eve! They didn't disappoint. Amazing evening. I believe Axl is/was Bi-Polar, but creative and amazingly talented. This was the best band for a while. Slash
founded another group, Velvet Revolver with Duff McKagan, etc. Lead singer was Scott Weiland, now deceased. They had a great song, "Fall To Pieces"! Give it a listen!
That is the voice of a ROCK GOD!!!!
I went to see Aerosmith in 1987 and Guns n Roses opened for them. I'd never heard of them but girl I was with had seen a video of theirs on MTV (back when MTV played music videos) and was very excited. They opened with this song and I was knocked on my ass. Shortly after that I think they finally started headlining as "Welcome to the Jungle" became a hit for them.
Love seeing Amber rock out to a song she knows while Jay is reacting for the first time.
Axl Rose lead vocals
Slash lead guitar (He is Puerto Rican)
Izzy Stradlin rhythm guitar
Duff McKagan Bass
Steven Adler drums
What an incredible line up.
Coming from a pure metal head who loved Metallica and Megadeth, this was perfection.
Slash is not Puerto Rican ..lol! ...His dad was Romanian-American and his mom African-American.
Slash isn't he's half Jamaican half Jewish and he's from England
it's almost unfair to have had these 5 people in the same band but this CD will never leave my car (yeah, young people, I said CD.....I own a 2023 AMG and have a CD player installed just bc I'm old and I just like the shit I like lol)
I remember when this song came out! Friday nights at the skate capital when the DJ played this song the place went nutz! The rink filled up could barely move!
One of my favorites because of Slash & Duff McKagans unbeatable bass.
This is a beautiful song, musically & lyrically...I don't normally care for Axl's vocals, but they fit perfectly on this. Sweet Child O'Mine has been covered by many orchestras, too.
And... Not exactly a Cover, but Slash w/ Myles Kennedy.... Rocks !!🎸
Slash was also born in London, UK to a English dad and to an American mother.
His mom is Afro-American
Got this album when i was 15 and still listen to it im 47 now...
The first guitar riff I ever learnt. And I think I speak for a lot of people there.
