Want "The message" from the song? Axl Rose got off the bus from the Midwest in the 80s in the city (The Jungle!) Crack cocaine, heroin, gangs, police brutality! Telling you from a man who grew up in the city, in the 80s! Want to get involved and play in the Jungle in the 80s??? It won't be for free, watch it make you bleed, feel my Serpentine, watch it bring you to your Sha na na na na na na na Knees!

That guitarist that can't hardly see his face.... that is SLASH. He is a living legend. Highly respected musician.

He did a song with michael , Give in to me❤

Started with Axl getting off the bus from the midwest...the jungle is the city...and the same guy, at the end, now with big hair, stops to look at the same tv as he did when he first arrived. The effects of "the jungle"

Guitar players name is Slash. He did the guitar with Michael Jackson song "Give Into Me".

Also Black and White. And Beat it live version.

I always felt that GnR was a product of the 80's. A decade of complete chaos devoid of constant surveillance and left alone with our own depravity to do whatever we wanted to do. Even through that mess, we came out alive and survived.

GnR was the beggining of the end for really decent music in the 80's. Great band, but Axel sucked as a "singer."

Slash (lead guitar... real name Saul Hudson) of Guns N' Roses is a stellar guitarist; he did actually work w/ Michael Jackson (not 'Dirty Diana'... that was Steve Stevens of Billy Idol's band) Slash played the guitar intro to 'Black or white'... and the guitar on the single 'Give in to me'... from MJ's 'Dangerous' album in 1991... Slash has also performed w/ MJ. 'Welcome to the jungle' was written about Los Angeles in the 80's... GNR singer Axl Rose left Indiana to join a rock band on the West Coast and came to L.A. and it was a shock for this country boy to see the big city w/ hustlers, pimps, dealers and hookers all over the streets.

You're funny bro. He says, "it'll take you to your, shnnnnn, knees, knees". That was a great reaction.

80’s were a BLAST... 90’s good too. Gen X and we were wild and quiet at the same time. Dangerous combo. Slash was fire!

I was born January of 1970. So I was a teenager in the 80s the best time to be in the 80s by the way. Guns N’ Roses was everything.!

The jungle is l Los Angeles and what it does to young bright eyed kids coming there searching for their dreams. The band was on heroin Axel Gap the idea from this song from his first week in Los Angeles. He was sleeping on a couch and an alley. If I remember correctly and some guy yelled out. Welcome to the jungle. At him

Guns & 🌹 is my husbands favorite band. He said crank it all the way up.

Coma in my opinion. Is mine. Welcome to the jungle is great but I didn't like Axl's look in it.

FYI - Slash is a British/American! He was born July 23, 1965 in Stone-on-Trent, United Kingdom. 🇬🇧 Axl Rose was visiting a friend near Seattle. While there, he started writing lyrics that told a story of the life in the Hollywood streets .. describes the life in Hollywood as a fight for survival. 💪 🦍🐅🦏🐆🐘 “You’re in the jungle, baby” .. So good!

Yes, the guitarist is Slash who often collaborated with Michael Jackson. Such amazing artistry. Axl Rose is a genius too, what an electrifying performance.

I'm an 80's kid and I had Guns 'n Roses , along with many other 80's rock bands all over my bedroom walls.

They play this song at the beginning of every Bengals home game, they call the stadium the jungle

Omg you had me rolling with your expressions (with your air guitar).

Yes slash was on stage with Michael Jackson song Dirty Diana. Guns N Rose's is my favorite band

The song of the Cincinnati Bengals! Who Dey! 🧡🖤🏈

This video and GNR almost never made it. M TV refused to play this video. However one producer gave it one shot and played it once at like 2 in the morning. The video became the most requested video on M TV. Everyone loved it. Another fun bit of history, when the US invaded Panama, the US soldiers took over the national radio station and put this song on replay and just let it go.. lol

Lyrics: Welcome to the jungle We got fun and games We got everything you want Honey, we know the names We are the people that can find Whatever you may need If you got the money, honey We got your disease In the jungle, welcome to the jungle Watch it bring you to your knees, knees Ooh-ah, I wanna watch you bleed Welcome to the jungle We take it day by day If you want it, you're gonna bleed But that's the price you pay You're a very sexy girl Who's very hard to please You can taste the bright lights But you won't get them for free In the jungle, welcome to the jungle Feel my, my, my, my serpentine I, I wanna hear you scream Welcome to the jungle It's worse here everyday You learn to live like an animal In the jungle where we play You got a hunger for what you see You'll take it eventually You can have anything you want But you better not take it from me In the jungle, welcome to the jungle Watch it bring you to your knees, knees Ooh-ah, I'm gonna watch you bleed And when you're high, you never Ever want to come down So down, so down, so down, yeah Aw You know where you are? You're in the jungle, baby You're gonna die In the jungle, welcome to the jungle Watch it bring you to your knees, knees In the jungle, welcome to the jungle Feel my, my, my, my serpentine In the jungle, welcome to the jungle Watch it bring you to your knees, knees In the jungle, welcome to the jungle Watch it bring to your...

10% violin 20%cars 40% axl dream 80% dance moves 100%Rock 999% Hair

The song is about trying to make it in LA when you first move there!

Guitar players name is slash, and hes in everything from commercials to movies and everything in between! 🤣

I was always intrigued by Slash and his guitar playing. I was also amazed he never caught his hair on fire with his cigarettes and all the hair product they used. 5:19 Axl says he was inspired getting off a bus in New York some homeless guy trying to scare runaways said to them "You know where you are? You're in the jungle baby; you're gonna die!” Guitarist Izzy Stradlin said it was about Hollywood streets true to life. Slash came up with a riff for this song and they made the song from it. Axl Rose used to live in Slash’s mom’s basement.

Really enjoyed your reaction 😂😅 And YES Slash ( the 🎸 player) played on stage with Michael Jackson for the 30th Anniversary.

This is a reaction I needed today! When someone realizes the lyrics to this song it does give them a shock. Parts of it get used all the time. I head this comment a while back. If someone got into a time machine and traveled to every decade of the 20th century, the 80s would be the most shocking to them. Still would love to see Sympathy for the Devil or We Didn't Start the Fire.

Steve Stevens played guitar on Dirty Diana, he was the lead guitarist for Billy Idol.

Great reaction 👏👏👏👏 to a fantastic song 😎☮️

The Jungle specifically in this song is Los Angeles…but it also represents any large city.

one of the first bands I ever fell in love with!! Let's ROCK!

I was 13 when this song came out. Just instantly blown away this whole album shaped my adolescence

Axl looks very different in every other video... this video was filmed when he was still in his crazy teased hair phase, but that went away before the band really broke out with their 2nd single "Sweet Child O' Mine". Jungle was released 3 times as a single before it finally charted, after the success of Sweet Child.

That's Slash! 😅😅

Love GnR awesome group! Love this song!!🔥🔥 Thanks AB!!

I was 11 yrs old when I bought this cd .. still love them to this day

I watched an interview with Axel Rose, the reason his hair looks like that is because when they were shooting the video, at one point he woke up and they decided to spray his hair with hair spray and have it that way for the video

...another classic band, Axle Rose his style, dress, hair outrageous performers...Peace👍☝️😌

The 80’s were wild. We loved every minute of it.

lead singer Axl Rose was visiting a friend near Seattle. While he was there, he started writing lyrics that told a story of the life in the Hollywood streets. He describes the life in Hollywood as a fight for survival with such lines as 'Ya learn to live like an animal/In the jungle where we play.

I love GnR, and Axel was my teenage crush. This is a great song, a crazy video.

Slash was my first crush, before I was even old enough to have crushes! And before I ever saw his face 😂😂 he’s still one of the most badass guitar players ever!!

"The disease" was more referring to drugs, vices, etc. And the guitar player is slash, one of the most legendary of all time. Also in the 80's. Large cities were often referred to as "the concrete jungle" indicating a certain survival of the fittest mentality. So basically this is the story of a country boy coming into the big city and it's like "welcome to the jungle, a vice of sex, drugs, broken dreams, and rock&roll".

Fabulous reaction. I've watched it a few times because you bring a mile to my face. Thanks

The story behind the song is that when Axel Rose, the front man and lead vocalist, got off the bus from Indiana to Hollywood that he was told by an older black man, 'Welcome to the Jungle, your gonna die" so the Jungle can refer to a city like LA or NYC

"Welcome to the jungle" The theme song for each person when they graduate from high school/college.

this song was actually bannedf rom being played until it was snuck into MTV for a Early Morning few. MTV didn't think anyone was going to watch it but the next day all the radios station were bombarded with request of the song and had no Choice but to play it. After that MTV made it a regular spot and the rest as we know Is history.

The story behind this song is well known. When Axl arrived in LA he disembarked from the bus in a volatile neighborhood. A black man looked at him and said, "You know wheere you are? You're in the jungle, Baby. You're gonna die!" And a classic was born...

"HE WANTS YOU TO FEEL HIS SERPENTINE " Think about it!

OMG. Your reaction is the absolute best. I can’t stop laughing. This was my band, I was about 11 when I got the album and couldn’t understand why my Dad didn’t want me to listen to it. Now I have kids and I understand.

He's saying "Watch it bring you to your knees"

I was born in ‘84, so I grew up with this. I love it when people discover the music.

Dirty Diana was Steve Stevens from the Bill Idol band. Slash (Saul Hudson) did do a geico commercial.

The 80s were a blast lol. I was an 80 kid. Bring it to your k kn kn kn knee knees knees lol

The guitarist's name is Slash and yes he was in that MJ video. 😃 Axel was unhinged. He has sex with the drummer's girlfriend in the recording booth and it's on the song "Rocket Queen".

The jungle as I interpret it in the song is everything that a mid-western boy, young, and naive encountered in the big city and the rock scene and how it transformed his mindset, his look, his attitude and sucked the life out of him and he lost everything about who he is and did not know who he is anymore... it killed who he was, brought him down, and he got lost in the mess of everything all around him. He gets off the bus in the city and looks like a young hick... as the video goes that hick is transforming as he sees everything on tv and all around him, and by the end he is transformed.

1987; I was 20 years old. So much fun.

Slash is awesome. He still sounds and looks like he did in the 80’s.

That is Slash. One of the best guitar players to ever picked one up!!

Welcome to the 80's Hairbands, or Hair Meld as we called it. Good Guns n Rose's song is Oh Sweet Child of mine , Patince or November Rain.

I always noticed that when he gets off the bus he looks innocent doesn’t know what L.A. will do

I saw them a couple years ago and they still sound awesome. FIRE!!🔥 It helped that we were 4 rows from the stage.

On guitar with the top hat is the legendary Slash .

This song was blasting as I was in a trans am with a drunk guy I just met that decided to run a red light we were stopped at and he slammed into a cop car, t bone, trying to get on the highway...there was a cop car behind that cop car and a cop car behind us when the dummy did that...I found myself dangling over a Dallas overpass being rescued and the song just kept playing.... #funtimes #genx #survived #buddidyoudie lmao the cops were ok, everybody lived, never saw that jerk again...

Slash didn't do the guitar work for "Dirty Diana" but he did the solos for “Black and White” and “ Give it to me”

😂😂😂 This was one of your funniest reactions!!! You’re awesome!!!

This video was my introduction to G&R, when they were new music. Amazing band! What a ride! They were some true rock-n-roll bad boys!

I was born July 6th 1971 and the best times I ever had was the 80s I should have had a little bit of watching from my parents I ain't going to cap I was a hellion

Best I ever heard anyone talk themselves out of interrupting a guitar solo.

Love this reaction! You are hilarious! 😂😅😂

This is a perfect time to leave you with this, "Tune & Info" yes. The drummer is "Steven Adler" he unfortunately got super heavy in the dope scene. The members of "Skid Row" were very close friends with GNR members. Especially with "Adler". It was so devasting for them all. Skid Row wrote the tune about "Adler" - "Wasted Time" The vocals alone are supernatural in ranges. Peace

GnR was Axle Rose on vocals, Slash on lead guitar, Izzy Sradler on rhythm guitar, Duff McKagen on bass guitar and Steven Adler on drums. I saw them when they were the opening band for Aerosmith. It was one of the best shows I've been to. Appetite For Destruction is still an incredible album.

His name isn't Randy, but their music still is Savage. try Ozzy Osbourne, Mama i'm comin home. Def Leppard, Rocket

lol this was fun!!❤

The nananana part of the chorus was something Roger Taylor of Queen did in his 1977 solo "I Wanna Testify"

At that time the most dangerous band in the world. Appetite for destruction is one of those rock albums that will stand the test of time as it has done since 1987. Every song a banger not to many albums like it.

Lead guitarist (top hat and hair) is slash a legendary guitarist. He has his own band with myles kennedy lead singing. Myles is my fav lead singer currently.

Slash played on Black Cat with Janet Jackson. That might be the video you're remembering.

This song is the opening song for the movie Lean on me. GnR are from late 80s. Instant success.

These guys are multi talented

You might like to know too that Slash’s mother was black/british. He was one of the only black artist in heavy metal at the time.

This is all about moving to the Jungle of LA ...... the concrete Jungle....think about moving to LA at the time in the 80's

That's slash and that's his look

That guitarist is Slash and he has played for MJ

OMG YES !! I have been waiting for you to do this one 😁🤣😂🥰 🔥🔥🔥🔥 Slash is the one playing the guitar with the top hat !

I was in high school when this album came out and here we are like 35 years later and I can still remember exactly where I was when I heard this song for the first time. This band could have been one of the greatest rock bands of all time but Axl Rose, the lead singer, was such a prick he drove away every one of these guys. Appetite is such an amazing album from beginning to end. After that there were a couple of albums that only managed a few songs that were any good. Its sad to think about what could have been.

The Jungle is life in general. The saying is he got off the bus in LA and a homeless man told him "Welcome to the jungle" and was referring to the fact that you have to give things to get things. Dog eat dog environment. Example: woman have to give out sex if they want to move up in a job.

"Knocking on Heaven's Door" is my goto GnR song. Mel Gibson in Lethal Weapon, the hair back then OMG, my boyfriend got up and curled his hair everyday to rock Mel's style in the movie. LOL he used as much hair spray as I did.

Knees…knees

Your reaction is priceless 😂😂😂

The one with the hat and guitar is “SLASH” the greatest guitarist in the world

G & R is bad ass! Slash is a super super famous guitar talent! Lead singer is Axl Rose. That band is iconic. Get you a t-shirt LOL!!!
