Axl is William Bailey from Indiana. When he went to L.A, he got off the bus and a guy said to him, "You know where you, are...." The rest is history.

I never got into Guns and Roses but I really like watching Axl Rose perform this song. He's a rocker.

" Do you know where you are?? You're in the JUNGLE. You're going to DIE !! " Best line in this song...awesome band.

Slash is UNDOUBTEDLY one of the 10 greatest rock guitarists ever.

Top 5*

Axl (aka Bill Bailey) is originally from West Lafayette, IN. Just a little ways up I-65 from you guys. The scene of him getting off of the bus always reminds me of the midwest kid moving to LA.

This is one of many songs from the US Army's playlist used to force Manuel Noriega out of hiding in a Vatican embassy in Panama City (1990). I'm old enough to remember when this happened. The playlist was extensive and also included Judas Priest, Van Halen, Kiss, Oingo Boingo, Led Zeppelin, Tom Petty and many more. The Army had massive speakers and blasted music 24/7 to force him out. I've seen this method referred to as "music torture." I thought it was ingenious on our military's part.

I remember buying this album when it was released in 87. This song is just so amazing, i cant begin to explain how good it is, the different phrases and the music alone tells a story, just so awesome.

It's funny because Slash seems so tall but he's only 5'9-5'10. He is larger than life though. What a talent he is!

An American rock classic. Great band but short lived. Slash in Velvet Revolver with the late Weiland is badass, too.

The Cincinnati Bengals play this at every game. 🐅

Best hard rock album ever made

the psych metal breakdown in this always get me hyped. We loved doing this on my channel.

"Paradise City" please!

Good evening from New England..I saw GNR at The Ritz in 1987 in NYC...Im a drummer and I wore out 4 cassettes of Appitite For Destruction..lol..Anyone remember cassettes...Great song...Peace from the Northeast..

Izzy is the secret sauce, you will hear his guitar parts in your left ear.

the whole album of appetite is unforgettable and a legendary masterpiece ,i love your reaction guys ,i'm super fan of guns n roses i suggest watch their paradise city , sweet child o mine , November rain and live performances you will like it i swear guys !🤚🏻

I can’t post/talk/preach about all things Guns, without going off the reservation. But something Ryan said hit me… this is one of those songs that you hear so often that you get sick of it, but in this case you never get sick of it. And I was thinking, ‘Damn right!!’ But then I realized that there was a point when I did get sick of it. After watching your reaction, I’m all the way back on you just never get sick of it. I appreciate it more now than ever! Loved the breakdown, & the abstract comparisons! Fucking great job gentlemen. Thank you for bringing this song back to me!

I hit Los Angeles from small-town northern California in the summer of '88, and Appetite for Destruction was huge, with "Sweet Child O' Mine" being played everywhere, then this song, then others; I wore out my cassette. Living there, I had a "brush with greatness," (as we used to call it when we ran into celebrities) with a member of the band. There was a comic book store, and SF/Fantasy bookstore, called Forbidden Planet on Ventura Blvd., in Sherman Oaks (an LA suburb in "The Valley"), and they had toys and action figures, too (the first "comic shop" I'd seen that carried such things). I was browsing the books one December in '88 or '89, when Slash came in, shopping for Christmas presents for his nephew(s), based on what I overheard. He was soft-spoken and polite (said "excuse me" as he brushed past me in an aisle), and he bought two action figures (want to say Transformers, but I could be wrong at this stage). Nobody bothered him, but then again, it was pre-cell phones, so he could live sort of anonymously, if he got in and out fast enough.

The first time I heard Guns N' Roses was right before the Appetite for Destruction album was released. It was this song on a pirate radio station, but only part of it and I didn't hear who the band was. A few months later I heard it on our local station here in Sacramento, CA and at the end they said who it was. I was with a girl I was trying to date and sitting out in front of her house with the radio on. She wasn't giving me any sign that she wanted to date me. So when I heard Welcome to the Jungle, all my attention was focused on who the hell was this Guns N' Roses band?? I told that chick I was leaving and never even said good by. I went right to the Tower Records and found the album. Played it front to back at least ten times. It blew away all the hair bands at the time and just sounded real. These guys weren't afraid to use the F-word and they weren't nice. That was what we were looking for. As for the chick? Years later she wanted to date and would hang out at my house.....well she got some attention alright. Thanks for the review guys. You are spot on!

Pure raw unadulterated smack you in the face rock music from the greatest debut rock album ever. After I heard AFD for the first time I was like WTF?! & had to listen to it again & again & again until I was hooked on it as it's 12 tracks rammed down your throat one after the other without compromise.

I saw them way back in Reno, and it was a really good concert. They even all sat on a couch at one point and did a jam that way. The only bummer was they sold no alcohol at this concert due to the night before in Sacramento someone threw a bottle or something on stage and it hit Duff the bass player to the point they said he needed stiches. So they drank, beautiful girls came out and served them drinks. Crazy, but good concert. Although i ended up seeing half of it with out the friend I went with. She of course drank a bunch before we came, and wanted to go out for air, or I think to get another drink from her car, and they would not let her back in. She was a friend though and waited for me to come out.

One of the best concerts I've ever seen back then. Slash is a genius. One of most amazing and iconic guitar players to walk the planet. WHO DEY BABY! 🏈

I was a 19 yr old air force enlistee stationed in San Antonio TX when my friends back in St. Louis MO went to see them in concert. Apparently Axle somehow started a riot with the fans in the front row. They got a lot of bad publicity over that. Not sure exactly what year it was 88 or 89. They have hits galore so lot to choose from on what to cover with them but I'll suggest a sleeper that I loved was Mr Brownstone. Sweet child is one of the best songs of all time tho.

This is featured in Dirty Harry: The Dead Pool. The band has a cameo role in the film.

Brilliant song

Yeah, Paul Brown Stadium when the opening guitar riff comes in is fun.

I saw them in 1986 on their Famous " Club" Tour that ended up at the famous Ritz show In New York, NY I saw them in Washington,DC They were Great, after Appititethou, they went down the tubes!

This song changed my life and changed music and a decade

Slows down at the bridge, leading to a jive with psychadelic guitar. Genius song, flawless execution

Watched them in Knoxville when they opened for Motley Crue. I went to see Crue but unfortunately for them GnR raised the bar too high for Crue to meet. Crue tried so hard to follow that they became pathetic. Before coming on stage they sent someone out to practically beg for girls to come to their bus. Later Tommy drank an entire fifth of whiskey and played drums upside down without missing a beat. The teenies may have believed that crap but anyone familiar with drinking knew better. I'm not saying Crue isn't a great band but I did lose a lot of respect for them that night, as well as some of my hearing. That night the opening band killed it and the headliner killed themselves. I've been a G n R fan ever since.

My favorite hit of theirs. And that's saying a lot.

"And when you're high you never ever wanna come down....so down...so down. sooooo yeahhhhhh. 17:50 that would be the heroin high. Axl has been kind of private about the coming to Hollywood on a Greyhound bus, but says a lot about this experience in the music.

He was undeniably the most sober in the band too. Pretty hard to believe, but guns went HARD😂🤟🏼

I lived in Studio City (another LA suburb in the Valley), probably around '93 or '94, and a young couple with a newborn child lived in the apartment next to mine. The guy was there trying to make it in the music industry (he was from Fresno, iirc). He was drummer (?) for a band called Liquid Black, and they were being produced by some big name producer who'd worked with Queen, I think, and other very successful bands. I still have a cassette demo tape of their album that he gave me, and the music wasn't bad. But, the band didn't go anywhere, and I think the family ended up moving back to Fresno. It may not have worked out, but I give him full credit for trying for his dream.

Saw GnR in a philly club in ‘87, it was Fred Coury’s birthday (drummer for Cinderella) crazy show..Think Axl ended up in jail in the early morning..Hair metal died that night for us haha..

Hi Guys! Fire vid and reaction!🔥🤩👍

Love guns and roses . But if you like this try ( wasted time) by skid row. In my opinion the best metal vocalist of the 80' s. Two of the best guitar players too. Sebastian Bach s vocal range is unbelievable. . You have to see the video just to see how great this group really are. Perfect from vocals to the drumming . A must see . If you don't you will regret it. Thank you.

And to bring it full circle, it is widely believed that Bach wrote Wasted Time about his very good friend, Steven Adler, recently removed from his position as the drummer for Guns, and his drug addiction ruining his life… and had already ruined his career. I believe there are also videos debunking this theory.

You should check Slash featuring Myles Kennedy & The Conspirators -- they got some great stuff. Myles Kennedy of Alter Bridge is a great singer.

Great reaction. I've seen this 500 times. I still get the chills. Of all videos in history, I rate this in the Top 10 ever by any artist or group. And I'm not necessarily a big G&R fan.

Gents, I’d love to see you get back to Band-Maid and The Warning! Two great bands that have lots of great songs, particularly BM - dozens of top-level songs. You must check out MISA going otherworldly on: - No God - official live video - Manners / Black Hole - official live video - the whole band is otherworldly on Black Hole - Play - official live video Kanami’s composition & guitar genius on: - Wonderland - official live video - About Us - official live video - Daydreaming - official MV - Dice - official MV - Warning - official MV - After-Life - official MV - Onset - official live video - Without Holding Back - you’ll have to get a copy And The Warning has several newer songs you should hear - Evolve, Choke, Z, Animosity, Disciple - they’ve really raised their game on these songs

This is an amazing song form the 80’s & 90’s. “Welcome to the Jungle” This is what I hear, “The protagonist is saying if you’re a young adult going into the city by bus. He or she might encounter some unsavory characters, and trick him or her into taking drugs or other unpleasant activities. The protagonist is also saying a Big City can turn into a jungle with drugs, adult industry, prostitution, even stealing…etc.

Yes this is played at every sporting event. I know the Bears play this at every game. I like it. Love Sweet Child of Mine and Paradise City better. One of my friends loves Axl Rose and still goes to his concerts. He is not my favorite. But Slash can play anything and it will be amazing! If you look up Guns and Roses and Metallica in Montreal = I lost respect for Axl. But their debut album was great and again Slash's riffs are 🔥!

It’s a great song for sure, but this along with Sweet Child were so overplayed. I know you say you never get tired of it, but I’m much more interested in the deep cuts that they didn’t make videos for that would have been played constantly. It was MTV that really burned me out on the first two singles. It’s a great album though and some of those deep cuts are fire; they all were really. Btw, there’s no way you could get away with that album picture with the girl today. It was provocative back then, but that was the whole marketing point of course.

Slash is actually a short dude

I grew up in Orange county California and people outside of the state think here in southern California it's all like L.A. 😆Oh no, L.A is its own beast. We're behind the" orange curtain" in O.C. lol

Jumanji welcome to the jungle

I believe that the reason for this song flopping was because it wasn't simply a single...it was released on the soundtrack for a Clint Eastwood movie "The Dead Pool" which didn't do well. So, it was an unknown band on a mediocre movie.

Love Slash

Ballad of jane is the la guns song u guys should listen to it

Axel Rose is from Lafayette Indiana.

1987, when MTV still played music videos, my 12yr old brain was in shock watching this one for the first time. Needless to say, I became a HUGE fan. Patience is one of my all time faves! As is GunsNRoses.

The entire Appetite album is killer... definitely not politically correct nor on Tipper Gores playlist in her iPod ;) F the PMRC, heh. Thanks to those Parental warning stickers this album was sure to be bought by kids knowing many parents would not be pleased ;) GNR was opening for Iron Maiden in 88 and an iteration of LA Guns/Guns N Roses played the show in Phoenix when GNR had to cancel that and some other shows due to throat issues with Axl, it didn't go well, heh, but Maiden was killer, as always.

Axl was untouchable in his prime. He could wail.

I get burned out on a lot of their songs..but just because of the radio where they cut things up and it’s ridiculous. They wonder why the radio is always getting slapped. So many good songs on this album and Lies with Patience only with the video to understand what that song means. GNR kicked ass! Edit: One note that you need to understand is there is a place in LA called The Jungle. It’s where you go for what you need! Doesn’t matter! Yes and the lyrics “You know where you are? Your in the Jungle baby…your gonna die!” It is a perfect interpretation of that area of LA for sure!!! Don’t get caught up in the Jungle…hard to get out!
