I know how you feel. I'm 61 and I still love this song also "Paradise City"

Got into listening rock music by Guns… I started with “Don’t cry” and I remember this song as being too heavy for me. Now it’s one of the songs that marked my youth…

[@vinniedixon1140]

During a jam session at the band's house in the Sunset Strip, drummer Steven Adler and Slash were warming up and Slash began to play a "circus" melody while making faces at Adler. Rhythm guitarist Izzy Stradlin asked Slash to play it again. Stradlin came up with some chords, Duff McKagan created a bassline and Adler planned a beat. In his autobiography, Slash said "within an hour my guitar exercise had become something else." Lead singer Axl Rose was listening to the musicians upstairs in his room and was inspired to write lyrics, which he completed by the following afternoon. He based it on his girlfriend Erin Everly (daughter of Don Everly and Venetia Stevenson), and declared that Lynyrd Skynyrd served as an inspiration "to make sure that we'd got that heartfelt feeling. On the next composing session in Burbank, the band added a bridge and a guitar solo.

listen to Australian Crawl - "Unpublished Critics" and everything will become clear.

[@Simon89Jeppesen]

Yeah right. Every band need a good story 😅

[@bassage13]

Thanks for the Wikipedia Copy and Paste.

[@Nick_Sandman]

Wonderful back story - thank you for sharing. NB: I've read, assimilated and re-typed this gen (2 comments) - not copy and paste 😸 The brand of water you are referring to is likely Levissima, which is an Italian mineral water brand known for its distinctive flavor and smooth drinkability. It is sourced from the springs in Italy's snow-covered Alps and is classified as an oligomineral water, meaning it contains dissolved minerals naturally occurring from its springs. The water brand Levissima was first put on the market in the 1930s. It originated from the pure water sources in the Northern Italian Alps, specifically from the valley of Cepina, and was named "Levissima" from the Latin adjective levis, meaning "light," due to its light and easy-to-digest properties. The song "Sweet Child O' Mine" by Guns N' Roses was composed in the summer of 1986. Here are the key details: Summer 1986: The band was living in an unfurnished house in the Griffith Park neighborhood of Los Angeles, where they focused on writing and rehearsing songs for their debut album, "Appetite for Destruction." It was during this period that Slash came up with the iconic riff, and the band quickly developed the song around it. Initial Development: The song's foundation was laid down quickly, with Slash's riff and Axl Rose's poem, which he had written for his girlfriend Erin Everly, forming the core of the song.

[@Nick_Sandman]

"Unpublished Critics" was released on Australian Crawl's album "Sirocco" in 1981, and it later appeared on a 1984 US compilation album, shares similarities with "Sweet Child O' Mine," released by Guns N' Roses in 1987. Both songs have similar chord progressions and rhythms. Some fans have pointed out that the lyrics of "Sweet Child O' Mine" can be sung over the melody of "Unpublished Critics". Similarities in the vocal style, particularly in the use of an "ahh" to start each line in the chorus. James Reyne of Australian Crawl has acknowledged the similarities but has expressed no interest in pursuing legal action.

[@LifeLongVillan]

Such a classic rock tune never get sick of listening to Slash 🎩🎸

[@boosuedon]

That opening riff played by Slash is a real "finger twister"! I have heard many guitarists play it, or at least TRY to play it but I've never heard anyone play it as smoothly as Slash! It's almost like it is done by a machine he is so perfect!

[@Daehawk]

The sound of this song is so iconic to me. Takes me back to great times in my life. Back when me and my wife were new and our families were alive and well. They're all gone now including my wife. Alone in the world but the music sits me there beside them as if time hasn't passed. Ahh to be 20 again.

Thank you very much for sharing this here. Music is magical in so many aspects

I agree one of the best albums of all time. I got lucky enough to see them in 88 or 89 opening for Aerosmith. GnR put on an amazing show as an opener they played a full set 1.5 hours and then Aerosmith played for 2.5 hours it was a great day of Rock and Roll

[@themighty6]

You must have heard this many times before! Even if rock is not your music. This is one of the best rock song ever in my opinion. Glad you enjoyed it

[@johnmoor2014]

This is one of the greatest songs of all time as far as I am concerned. Definitely takes me back to my high school days. I am so happy the younger generation is discovering our music. I love watching your reaction to a song that has moved me for 30 years.

In the late 80s and early 90s I was a big G&R fan and listened to one of their albums every day. And listening to them now bring back those, not all great, memories. But the music is still great and the memories have faded. It is great to see you experiencing this music for the first time and you're obviously loving it too.

[@donaldnewberne2616]

Guns-n-Roses is another iconic band with an iconic song from the '80's. The verse from another famous song, " Today's music just doesn't have the same soul". Rock On Guns and Rose!!!;🤘🤟✊🤙👊💥🔥

Lyrics: 💞👌 She's got a smile that it seems to me Reminds me of childhood memories Where everything was as fresh As the bright blue sky (sky) Now and then when I see her face She takes me away to that special place And if I stare too long I'd probably break down and cry Whoa-o-oh, sweet child o' mine Whoa-o-o-oh, sweet love of mine She's got eyes of the bluest skies As if they thought of rain I'd hate to look into those eyes And see an ounce of pain Her hair reminds me of a warm safe place Whereas a child I'd hide And pray for the thunder And the rain to quietly pass me by Whoa-o-oh, sweet child o' mine Whoa-o-o-oh, sweet love of mine Whoa-o-o-oh, sweet child o' mine Whoa-o-o-oh, sweet love of mine Whoa-o-o-oh, sweet child o' mine Ooh, yeah, o-o-oh, sweet love of mine Where do we go? Where do we go now? Where do we go? Where do we go? Where do we go now? Oh, where do we go now? Where do we go? (Sweet child) Where do we go now? Oh, where do we go now? Where do we go?

If you know some guitarists it's normal to recognize... the riff of sweet child O' Mine is played by everyone, almost as much as the intro of Stairway to heaven 😁🤘

[@jimspetdragons3737]

This song had heavy airplay on MTV in the days music was the dominate content on the channel. Slash did the opening rift on a Capital One commercial here in the US. The song made it in a few movie soundtracks including Thor Love and Thunder and Captain Fantastic (I've not seen either yet) and at least 3 others I saw listed (not sure if they were all original artists versions or covers).

[@renejensen7799]

Some songs you know what is as soon as you hear half a second of it, this is one of those, iconic guitar riff yers, i think its just iconic for how simple it is, and yet so impactful, once you heard this guitar riff, you just know it, i think its the music itself that made it iconic, and not a movie..Its like the riff from Smoke on the water, everyone who play guitar can learn it pretty fast, and that is one way to create a iconic riff, if it also sounds good.

I remember hearing the whole album when it came out in the summer of '87. A friend of mine got his mother to buy it for him. I hadn't heard anything like their style before. Don't get me wrong, it's just blues based rock n roll, but they had that something extra that blew me away at 12 years old.

[@chrismaverick9828]

It really WAS different. I can only describe it as chaotic glam rock. The elements of glam rock are there: The high voice, the hard hitting guitar solos, the tight pants, the whole intonation is Glam Rock. But it really is a chaotic form of it. It doesn't follow the normal Glam form, instead mixing things up and really pulling in the strains of rock that you hear more prominently in Black Sabbath or other similar groups. It punches in a way that glam didn't, yet still maintains a musical truth that compares to the way Iron Maiden would to Opera. The strength and purity is there, but mixed up a bit differently than normal. GNR was one of the most perfect transition groups to grace rock.

[@notademonrat]

It's Iconic because Appetite for destruction is one of the biggest selling albums in history.

[@Quizzy0000]

the funny thing is the lead singer axl rose has a pretty deep voice. his range is big but his normal voice is pretty low. thats compared to his high pitched voice most ppl dont think its him when a low voice comes in but the song: mr brownstone is a great example and mr brownstone is the drugs just a hint. cause it can sound weird if you dont know the reference.

GNR Was The Biggest Rock Band All The Time, In Late 80'S, GNR Won The MTV Video Music Award (VMA), Since 1989,1990,1992,1993. Beating U2 Albums, Metallica Albums, And Nirvana Albums in The MTV Music Video Award. Then GNR Vacuum in The Middle Of 1993, Then Came The Famous Alternative Bands, Such As: Nirvana, Pearl jam, And SmashingPumpkins. Nirvana is Famous For Entering The Same Music Recording Studio As GNR, Namely Universal Studio Music, Through The Album Nevermind. Even though Previously Nirvana Was Not Famous at The Time, When They Were Still in Their Indipop Music Studio. The Famous Alternative Music Band From 1993-1995. Then GNR Held A Reunion At Troubadour in L.A. And The Coachella Music Festival in 2006. Many Hollywood Artists Came, Watched The GNR Reunion, Because Everyone Missed The Band GNR Rock Music, Because The Music GNR Was Very Nice To Hear. I Loved The Band GNR.

[@timometsanoja9666]

The guitar part, which is so recognizable, was actually something Slash used to warm up before they started to play their actual music. Unbeknownst to Slash Axl liked the warm-up sound and turned it into a song. Slash was not a big fan of this and hated to play it until they played it live and he saw how out of their brains the audience went on the first few notes he played. It is legendary, pure brilliance, the whole album... Best guitar pron out there.

[@chrismaverick9828]

It's the age-old adage that even the simplest of things performed by a master can overwhelm the listeners. So many artists hate their own work because they feel it is sub-par and simplistic, not representative of their ability. A simple tune by the right person in the right moment can make for a masterpiece for the masses. That type of artist needs to realize that the reason there is art is that it is to be enjoyed by others. If you make a song that is incredibly complex and shows your skills but it never finds a heart to latch onto, is that success? If you make a simple tune that people find various incredible meanings and feelings within, is that failure? Slash has come to understand that over the years. Maybe it's not his favorite, but he knows that it is the favorite of a lot of people who find meaning in it. THAt is what it is to be an artist.

[@timometsanoja9666]

@@chrismaverick9828 and something that evokes emotion in people and speaks to their souls doesn't have to be some incredible masterpiece of skill and mastery. It often is quite simple. Not saying the iconic riff here is simple, but it is very distinctive. One such example of a simple yet something you feel in your soul is Metallica's Nothing Else Matters. That thing is barely playing and it is one of the best songs ever written. The emotional baggage it has is just mind blowing. Music speaks to us, it is a universal language and one that brings together people from all walks of life... Slash is a master of his instrument.

One day, our male model, who was young, muscular, and wearing a bandana on his head -our class was sketching him in poses, nude, in circle around him. Our Teacher went out to make a phone call. Our Male Model, decided to have some fun, when the Teacher was out, and broke into his Axl Rose imitation, nude except for the bandana, started to sway, dance, sing "Sweet Child of Mine" -nude. He did well with the the singing, and moves. We laughed! By the time our Teacher returned, we were back to model and student sketch behavior. 😆🤫

Then in his iconic voice said…”So Welcome to the Jungle…Ritz!! After he said that everyone went nuts. Can’t really hear it on you tube. But being there, great night!! That was the last small venue I saw them at. That same summer they sold out the old Giants stadium in Jersey w/Aerosmith. But everyone was there for guns. Then saw then another 12 times including 3 times since they got back together. Best band still!!!
