That was awesome Texas Ranger Fan 🤘🏻🔥🤘🏻🔥

[@ardirinaldy1538]

This song is very my favorit lyrics😂

[@Chiari_Queen_T]

This was om their 1st release. A mini LP. They were unknown. I got a copy from a friend at the record label. Loved all the songs. A friend borrowed it and I never saw it again. ( it was a cassette in 87').

[@vilianavasileva8213]

A lady here. This one of my favourite GNR songs. 😁

[@michaeljfoley1]

Mine too. It's classic GnR dark humor, they loved getting an indignant rise out of people, Axl especially.

[@vilianavasileva8213]

@@michaeljfoley1 yeah, I love bands like that. I can just imagine what people who got all pissy about GNR think of Rammstein. Lol

[@Michelle1974-o2x]

Female here, and I’ve always loved this song!

[@demikats]

Just awesome!!!!!🤟🔥🤟

[@paulhadfield7909]

such a funny song

[@evacovault2880]

Awesome! Please do the version of You're Crazy from this same performance!

This!!

Sorry to say, I love this song!

[@infin8reactions]

Never be sorry for liking a song lol

[@randywissler9923]

Just your garden variety love song. 😂😂

[@jerickson725]

Good one @texasrangerfan! I almost forgot about this song 😂. I love GNR, especially "Patience", because that video is what made me cave in to my love for bad boy Axl for a minute or so, lol. And I could watch Slash play for hours. Great reaction Lee!

[@kevinb6831]

for me this is their best ever live performance, sound wise. No running around the stage, no open air to distort the noise - it really shows how great they were. They so rarely did these sort of performances/venues.

[@mooknick242]

i saw GnR a few times..twice while they were openers..I saw them open for INXS and the Stones and when they were openers on a small stage they were the most unbelievable thing you have ever seen. When they got to be headliners and Axl ran around on the big stage constantly out of breath they started to suck. They went from the absolutely best thing on a stage to the worst. Lol me and all my high school friends thought Axl was the coolest thing ever until those use ur illusion shorts he wore on stage.

[@notmissingout9369]

Anyone else think Axl was a Nazareth fan when he was younger that the vibe I get from this track

[@adrianbland7656]

One of their best but under rated

[@SRDmotorsports]

Love this especially when you said you wonder if some serial killers listened to this cuz now it had me thinking hmmm lol And to all you guys il let u go thru what I went thhru as a Guns fan… a fellow gunner told me what if it was “I used to love her but I had tequila” And man it never went away from my head lol and I’d mistake singing it a lot of Times lol

[@gryphoncroat]

Prime Axl and Slash in this one, true gem live👌👌

[@infin8reactions]

Definitely!!

[@michaeljfoley1]

Yes this is one of my favorite GnR performances, everything clicks in perfectly here. The CLASSIC classic version of GnR, here in 1988, you know.

[@michaeljfoley1]

I loved the dark humor of GnR back in the day. Most people probably assume this was Axl's lyrics, but I believe they were Izzy Stradlin's. Apparently he heard a country song on the radio where the singer was complaining about his wife, so Izzy decided to write a kind of satirical song riffing on that country trope.

[@infin8reactions]

I didn't even know they did satirical songs 😂😂😂😂

[@bowlingaly5059]

Part of the joy of Gun N Roses is the element of humor that hides within some of the lyrics.

[@iuliangheorghe6857]

Fun fact: Izzy wrote it about his dog! He had to kill her!

[@michaeljfoley1]

I heard an alternate story, that Izzy heard a country song on the radio, where the singer was complaining about his wife, so Izzy decided to write a song satirizing that country trope and theme. I think it garnered the band some mild controversy, though not nearly as much as One in a Million.

[@Aidan-mm4zm]

Whenever my uncle and auntie would get in an argument my uncle would go into the living room and put this song on 😂😂

[@infin8reactions]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@carlmiller1224]

I love a story with a happy ending. 😳

[@EduGuimaraes84]

I love this song, and actually the story behind this song it's about a dog, not about woman... 🙂

[@lauraliszc]

I read somewhere that Izzy Stradlin wrote it after he heard a man's phrase "I used to love her..." , after his dog was run over. I know that later in interviews he said that there could be other perspectives and he even related it to drxg addiction or something like that, I suppose for a deeper meaning, but yep, at the beginning it was that someone ran over a dog, he heard the phrase and wrote some verses. 😁 And people for a long time went crazy with the idea that Axl could be confessing a crime :v

[@vilianavasileva8213]

The actual story of the song is Izzy Stradlin rhythm guitar, lyrics writer of the song heard someone complaining for ages on the radio he just wrote this song. Or about his dog incessant barking there are two versions of it.

[@GBizzee]

To my understanding the lyrics are not "she bitched so much", but instead "she bit so much", indeed referring to a dog.

[@michaeljfoley1]

Yeah from what I heard, Izzy was inspired to write the song when he heard some country singer complaining about his wife. It's basically a joke song. Dark humor, but I mean, it's Guns N Roses, so, it's fitting.

[@SearlesHernandez]

@@michaeljfoley1 this is what Izzy and Axl said in an interview.

[@arielperez2314]

Naah, this song is about izzy living heroine... not the dog, not the fighting couple

[@kevinwalsh9788]

Rover!

[@DK-ox7xi]

GnR at their peak.

[@ericgaudet5488]

This is the only song that Guns and Roses did as a joke.

[@TedBennett951]

depends on the relationship/woman... ive had one where this subject matter was... tempting

[@ghfantexas6848]

I know. At least Wheeler Walker Jr. didn’t kill his family. 😎

You sure about that? 🤣🤣🤣🤣

@@infin8reactions Yeah the song is about his dog. Does make it seem not as bad now that you know.

[@infin8reactions]

Haha I never would have guessed 🤣🤣

[@AppetiteForClipz]

It's not about his fuckin dog... Axl cleary states on more than a few occasions, while introducing the song live, that it was written out of fantasy and a joke, about wanting to kill your significant other when they have become too much of a pain in the ass.

[@mooknick242]

I'm a texas ranger fan!!!!!!!!!

[@marcguidetti3081]

the song was written by Axl Rose about his elderly pet dog that had cancer and had to be put down

[@PrinceJediMaster]

From Songfacts Axl Rose wrote the lyrics as a joke. It was rumored that the song is about his dog, with the story that he loved the pooch but had to have it put to sleep and then buried her in the backyard.

This song is fucked up

[@infin8reactions]

Haha it really is!!

[@michaeljfoley1]

The song was meant to be darkly humorous, it was apparently inspired by a country song where the singer was complaining about his wife. GnR knew it would piss off a lot of people, but they enjoyed pushing people's buttons.
