Guns N Roses: Appetite For Destruction is THE quintessential 80s hard rock album. Their debut album and it went straight to number 1. It's the 11th best selling album of all time! I have an unbelievable amount of nostalgia for this as it was the first album I ever owned. Had it on Cassette and played it until it finally broke. I remember those years from 1987-1994 when every time GNR put out a new album or live concert video it was an event. Hell, I remember my first girlfriend had a poster of Axl Rose (the singer) on her bedroom wall. Guns N Roses for life!

Slash’s guitar and Axl’s voice is an unbeatable combo!;}> These guys sold over 189 million records worldwide. So anyone who tries taking away from or talking shit about this group never really listened to them and are quite simply just hating;}>

This song actually originated when Axl first got in LA. An older black gentleman said to him do you know where you are? You’re in the jungle baby. It grew from there where he talks about the seedier side of rock and roll

Used to play this in my cover band days, so much fun to play. The solos are so cool. Slash single handedly brought the Les Paul back to life at a time when everyone was playing an Eddie type guitar.

One of the best debut albums ever!!!!

They are the most dangerous band, love them

Welcome to GNR! One of my favorite bands as a teenager. You definitely need to listen to more of their music. There is a very defined evolution with this band as they became more famous. They got better with some time and experience. Another band I highly recommend from this era is Skid Row. Great reaction as always.

👍👍👍👍great reaction I enjoy all of them!

Still the greatest band I've ever had the pleasure of seeing live. That night was all sorts of crazy!

This was the song that introduced GnR back when I was in middle school. This group really defined those years for me, and even to this day I'm still getting new meanings out of their songs. Axl the lead singer actually does have a 6 octave range in his voice which is amazing so the high parts aren't actually part of a character or anything. For my money, Slash on lead guitar is easily one of the top 5 greatest guitarists ever, his solos are amazing and especially when you get into their longer songs they actually enhance the lyrics. Here are some of my ideas for you all to try out. From their first album Appetite for Destruction - Paradise City, Sweet Child O' Mine, My Michelle, and Mr. Brownstone From the Use your Illusion double album - They have a trilogy which is Don't Cry, November Rain, and Estranged. Others on those albums that are must listens are Coma, Civil War, Breakdown, Locomotive, The Garden, Don't Damn Me, Bad Apples, and You Could Be Mine.

The Jungle in the song depicts Los angles where they started their band. It talks about the craziness of La

How is Lex always so tight on lyrics and meanings, and also great hear with the instrumental work.

One of the best opening songs on an album ever

The song is about him being a from a small town in Indiana and moving to the big city of Los Angeles at a young age

I have to say, I love the lyrics because they are powerful, sleazy, sexy, and everything you'd find along your way tot he top, only to be chewed up and spit out by the city itself. It's pretty hardcore, for me anyway. Great lyrics. I hope you take time to analyze them. Love your videos! Rock on! \m/
