We don't talk enough about Duff Mc Kagan's incredible bass on this track

Axl’s voice in this era was just perfect. Could hit every note and was always right on, but had that wonderful “gravel-y” roughness that’s just perfect for rock n roll.

Almost ANYTHING off of their very 1st Album is a total BANGER! Mr.BrownStone, My Michelle, Paradise City, etc… And So many more. “You Could Be Mine” was used as soundtrack for Terminator 2. Guys it’s all out there. Take your pick and let’s have some fun!! REALLLLY love you two.

Paradise city and sweet child are classic..masterpieces

I remember being in the 4th grade and our substitute teacher for 3 months would always end every weekly music lesson with this song. Greatest substitute teacher and greatest 3 months in the 4th grade ever! 😎👍💯

Now you have to do their biggest hit - Sweet Child O Mine.

This whole album is just perfect. Banger after banger after banger.

Paradise city incapsulates everything great about gnr. The chemistry was off the charts. The instrumental switch ups with exciting and energetic. Axl sounds amazing as always along with Slash shredding the hell out of the final solo. Stevens signature drums adds a swing to the beat and duff and Izzy complimenting Slash in the background brings the song together. Appetite for Destruction was peak rock

No other band has the energy and power of Guns N Roses for me, Slash's licks and solos are just too good, without doubt my favourite band ever, I saw them live in London last summer, it was amazing!

Saw them in 1990. Axl and the band were about 2 hours late to come to on stage. The crowd was getting restless and getting crazier by the minute. They hit the stage around 11pm and walked off around 1:30ish or so… they blew the roof off that arena…. One of my best concerts along with Metallica…. The whole Appetite for Destruction is a banger for sure… one of rock’s greatest debut albums on my list….. Great reaction guys…. Love watching you guys rocking out and appreciating great rocking music 🎶!!!!!

Paradise City hits just as hard now as it did when it was released.

G N R F-ING S UP. One of the greatest hard rock songs ever. Perfect.

I was fortunate enough to be at that show. I was a junior in HS. The color parts were from the old Giants Stadium in New Jersey. They opened for Deep Purple and Aerosmith. It was one helluva show! I recall Axl telling everyone they were filming a video for this next song before launching into it. The crowd went ape shit crazy! good times...

The black and white footage was from Monsters of Rock, Castle Donington, UK, 1988. 110,000 people. Iron Maiden headlined. I was there.

This song was their last song every show. Axl and Slash both ran around like crazy people for a period of time where they both had security guy’s that had to follow them around the stage. There is some hilarious video of the poor security guys trying to keep up. There is also footage of Slash being tackled on stage by a crazy fan and for the most part he keeps on going 😂

fun fact axl is a big rap fan.around this time he was big on NWA and they wanted them to tour with they’re band

Every and I mean every single song of appetite for destruction is great. Welcome to the jungle thru rocket queen. There’s a reason it is the best selling debut rock album of ALL TIME. It is timeless.

She was already doing the Axl Rose head shakin the first seconds in 🤘😆 Never caught them in the 80s or anything till a couple years ago here in Portland and Slash just killed it. Watching him play on big screen he never missed a note , unbelievable. And it was a long set

Sweet Child O' Mine has my favorite guitar solo of all time. It's a must listen.

Axl Rose has 5 octaves, more than many current or past singers.❤😊

They end every concert with paradise city but never the exact same way, such a high energy song and they dont have to hold anything back for it, they extend it as to how the crowd reaction is

High energy bliss! Great reaction! 🎸🎸🎸

This song was released during my senior year of high school--man that was a great time for music!

Izzy (Guitar), Axl (vocal), Slash ( guitar), Duff ( bass) & Stevie( drums).. G N' R classic line up

Miss the 80’s if your weren’t there you can try to understand but you’ll never know the feeling we had then…

My favorite song is “Sweet Child Of Mine “. Every time I hear it, it takes me back to the best time of my life. I told my family that I want it and “Free Bird” played at my funeral!!!!

The black and white parts were at the monsters of rock festival at Castle Donnington in England massive crowd for the 80s and the colour parts were in new york

Grew up in the 70s and 80s!!! I would love to go back!!!!!!!!! Thank you for your video!!

The end of the 80s hairbands was always contributed to the seattle grundge era but it was really guns and roses that killed it.the alice and chains and nirvana,and pearl jam came in shortly after.

How is it possible you never heard this

Don't Cry, is another great!! Civil War another great......

Just what we use to call music. Fucking good music. 😅 Keep Rocking

Excellent reaction guys ... Sam just wins the dance off because of the head band, long hair and air guitar at the end 😆🤘... Guns N' Roses just headlined Glastonbury Festival in the UK last Saturday night ... 'Sweet Child of Mine' when you get chance, thanks

Amazing song reacting Sweet child o mine o you cold be mine😊

Nobody better than Guns N' Roses.

According to a former band member paradise city was Lake Geneva Wisconsin. The grass is green were all the golf courses the girls are pretty was the Playboy Club. Axl Rose owned a house there across the lake from where I used to live. Lake Geneva is home to many famous stars including the creator of dungeons and dragons. It's definitely a Paradise City!

You two sure took a bold step to debut your channel and I love it. Great material for your first year. I can't wait to see which bands you react to in your second year and beyond. Good luck moving forward.

look at all those freakin people, roses was once the biggest band in the world. amazing how things change.

The black and white footage of this video was filmed at the monsters of rock festival in the UK and i was there at the front of the stage, a 120,000 plus people there and when Guns come on everyone tried to push to the front and sadly two fans lost their lives. Being at the front and seeing how crazy it was im surprised it was only two, we spent the whole time passing people over our heads for medical attention. Axl at one point stopped the show and asked everyone to take a couple of steps back as he could see what was happening. Because of the deaths the festival was cancelled the next year and when it to come back it was limited to 72,000 people.

This is definitely a work out worthy song.

Greatest rock song of all time.

What a wonderful time to be a rebellious 16 yr old 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

GnR ruled the world in the 80s🤘🤘

The Bass is sooo funcky !

When they were playing their set in England in '88 (2nd half of this video), 2 people were trampled to death near the front of the stage during GnR's set. They didn't know anyone had died until after the show. =(

November Rain is middle part of trilogy with first Don't cry and the last Estranged.

You guys should do "Get In The Ring". It rocks and has Axel doing this epic rant near the end. Loaded with F Bombs. But it's a cool song.

Yesterdays, Knocking on heaven's door, Civil War, and more overlooked but also great solo wise don'T damn me.. and many more worth it. Other bands may have had more albums in their equally long career but gnr defo had lots of bangers on each.

The Greatest Hard Rock Band Ever 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

Yes and the Blonde Bassist is Duff McKagan and the other guy is Izzy Stradlin I think from back then, well between '85 and '91 anyway! Otherwise if it's after 2002 then it will be Richard Fortus, or Paul Tobias between '94 and 2002

When I was in high school,this was the Summer Anthem! Had alot of fun to this song! Ahhhh, Summer keggers. Lol. #Subbed

2nd part of the vid shows you the Donington Festival , UK. One of the large events here in Europe every year.. The Energy, oh my... I miss the good ol days. :D

Now don't you feel sad for not being born in the right time!!🎵😅💜

Every time those snare hits come in at the beginning I get goosebumps.

One of the biggest and most popular anthems of the era, no doubt. Everyone digs this song. Glad you do, as well!

They were the most dangerous band on the planet, we'll never see another G n R unfortunately - the last of the true rock n rollers.

I was lucky enough to catch GnR opening for Judas Priest and KISS in 1988 at a 'Monsters of Rock' concert in Donington, UK when I was stationed in Germany!!! Along with another 200k + people!! They blew everyone away except maybe for KISS, only because that's when Bruce Kulick(lead guitar) and Eric Carr - RIP(drums) were in the band, during their "Crazy Nights" tour!!! The next year, GnR were headlining "Monsters of Rock" tours!!! Got to see them again in '89, this time headlining another "Monsters of Rock" tour in Germany!!! It's actually amazing if you know that SLASH wasn't the "original" lead guitarist in the band. It was Tracii Guns, hence the band's name "'Guns' N' Roses". Axel Rose was actually the lead singer of ANOTHER band Tracii Guns had formed, "L. A. Guns". When Tracii left "GnR" and went back to "L. A. Guns", Slash stepped in, and Axel left "L. A. Guns", for "GnR." Phil Lewis replaced Axel Rose in "L. A. Guns." And History was made when 'Appetite For Destruction' became the largest selling debut album of ALL TIME, still to this day!!!

👍👍👍👌👌👌💯💯💯 Nightrain, Don't cry,Mr Brownstone, Yesterday,Dead Horse, Estranged, It so easy. Cool music 🎵🎵🎵🎶🎶

Like i said when you react to Nirvana, teen spirit. This is one of the songs that changed the whole music climate. It was so different and energetic compared to all comersial "hair metal bands" at that time. This felt so real, so genuin. Rock n roll straight from the heart 🤘

Slash featuring Myles Kennedy and the conspirators.. Anastasia live from Sydney.. slash side project ( 10 years and still going) .. great singer and this song has great guitar work

Great job with your reaction and thoughts on The Song Paradise City from Guns and Roses . This was one of those Live video with studio Recording session for the Vocals and instruments.

The song is about him being stuck in the concrete jungle of LA trying to make it as a rock star (living in poverty, selling and doing drugs etc.) and getting to the point of desperation where he'd like to quit and just go back to his small town in Indiana (but he had to keep pushing the path for fortune and fame rather than turning around and going back to the start)

So hard to believe you could grow up and not have heard this. They were everywhere in the early 90s/late 80s. I wasn’t that old, but had older cousins who tried to dress like them and everything! Haha. Anyways, you’re probably both 12-15 years younger than me, so missed this time.

What’s amazing is they are currently on tour or were in 23 with Front man Axl rose , slash on the guitar so they are still going and I was a huge fan of them in my teens which I was a big rock n roll fan but I listen to all kinds of music

If they have never heard this song before, its not that they lived under a stone, but they have rather been living under a mountain.

They are the biggest rock band in my lifetime at their peak...from 88-92 they were by far the biggest band in the world....I wasn't around for the Beatles but they had that kind of fame in that 5 year period....in was GNR mania....

Things don't get much better than this song, forgetting Axl interrupting the intro, this song has t have the best intro of all time, Axl was right on point with the way he sang it, and as for Slash and his solo's, nothing compares to them, all in all this has to be one of the greatest tracks of all time

Axel Rose has 6 octaves range because he has the lower ones! I was surprised to know it years ago because usually the range goes up.

Fun fact about the writing of the lyrics : Slash started humming a melody when Axl Rose sang, "Take me down to the Paradise City." Slash chimed in with "Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty." Rose sang the first line again, where Slash shouted out "Where the girls are fat and they've got big t*tt*es." Finally they choosed the first version 🤘(I wonder if they register the other version haha)

This is my favorite GnR song and favorite video by them. Rocket Queen is also awesome. The whole Appetite for Destruction is an iconic album, one of the best ever.

Got my like when you said I got one right here guys lol I feel like she dressed for a GnR concert today 😊

The concert was a real one, a once in a lifetime event called Castle Donnington. Wonderful and also tragic event.

I saw them live in a small indoor venue that held probably 5000 people and all their equipment was set up really for outdoor stadium performances. Loudest rock concert I have ever attended BUT it was perfectly clear with no distortion, every bass note or hit on the kick drum you feel the soundwaves hitting your skin. That show they were about an hour and a half late showing up (which such actions was part of the beginning of their downfall) but they put on a hell of a show. Slash and his rifts were a big part of the bands success never understood why after GNR he was never really a force in a rock band afterwards. I would have to rate it solidly in the top 5 of concerts I ever saw and I went to a bunch that covered performances by many of the top rock bands from the 60's, 70's and 80's!

Saw them in 88 and 92 with 110 thousand folk at Calder Park

Don’t cry is a fabulous song. One of my favorites from them

Can’t believe that you made this far in life without hearing Guns N Roses 😅

Love your channel. Big fan.

Just the best rock song of all time. If you want a perfect reaction song do one in a million by GNR. would love to see your reaction and hear your input.

Get in the ring and I used to love her are also some off their,many great hits

Wow I shouldn’t have watched this one right before bedtime. Ain’t gettin to sleep now. B4 GNR exploded onto the scene my favorite band was Motley Crue. Both bands are iconic. Ahem- Sweet Child of Mine - please Anyways, u mentioned u were very young when GNR was rockin the world and there’s so much to experience b4 your time. I was young when bands like Boston, Styx, Queen, Led Zeppelin, AC/DC, Deep Purple, Black Sabbath,Kiss etc were ruling the decades and had to go backwards and experience these bands too. One step back is the hair band generation and most people enjoy seeing that era also. Another list that commenters can and a million names to: Motley Crue, Poison, Skid Row, Cinderella, Ratt, White Snake etc. Have fun exploring and sharing, your channel is awesome and your so great at conveying your thoughts and feelings. PS If it’s acapella time, there were 3 bands that blew up KZfaq about the same time. Pentatonix, Home Free and VoicePlay. I’ve seen all ur Pentatonix reactions (wonderful) and if u move to Voiceplay try Oogie Boogie Song and Little Mermaid Medley. If u try Home Free start with Ring of Fire - it’s the song they won The Sing Off with and features Avi from Pentatonix. Hope u enjoy ur new musical experiences as we have all enjoyed ur channel.

Some of the REALLY heavy hitters of the metal "hair band" days. Thanks for your reaction.

I was in high school when Appetite for Destruction came out. Been a fan of GNR ever since. Y'all need to add this to your workout playlist. Also add Queen's One Vision.

Barbells ,Dude you looked Soooo confused on the 2nd to last beat/timing change. Hilarious 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Woe. Never heard this. Guns n roses one of those epic bands.

Please play, The Who won’t be fooled again. Shepperton Studios 1978. I think you love it 👍😂🇬🇧

Ok now Sweet Child O Mine!

Awesome! Sweet Child of Mine STUDIO version must be next!!!

FYI Concrete Jungle is usually in reference to New York City.

Guys, when you do "Sweet Child O Mine" DON'T do the music video. The song is cut up and shortened. Do the album version.

If only we could go back to the 80’s and 90’s

Slash was already a rock legend when Axl and G&R came along - they made a great match. You can find Slash playing with some of the all-time greats of Rock.

You guys should check out sweet child of mine. It has the most iconic guitar work and an incredibly bad ass guitar solo. Like Jimmy hendrix good solo.

Where are You from? Mars? How can you never heard Paradise city 😂

The funky riff during the verses is 'izzy stradlin' tge other guitarist.

Never hrard it before, but he's sitting there singing along.... lol

Maybe my fave song off of what, to me, is a perfect album. I couldn't stand Guns n Roses as a whole, but this album is and always will be fire asf. You need to do Rocket Queen and Nightrain....2 of the best off this album.....both being great gym songs. Hopefully you do Devin Townsend....Kingdom live on EMG TV and Slaughter to Prevail....Bonebreaker live in moscow, def a workout song if you can stomach it.

They were awesome! I loved Sweet Child Of Mine. I loved all the hairbands. Aerosmith comes to mind. Such good songs. Poison... Motley Crew of course.... And, it's funny looking at this and now I'm a fan of BTS, but I can see the similarities with the K-pop culture. These metal bands had style, they had fashion galore, there was the attitude, the performances had ton of energy, they left it all on the stage, and killed the songs for the fans, and then the fandoms. They were so loyal. I genuinely get nostalgic as a Jersey kid looking back at these.

Knockin on heavens door live should be next, a well done cover of a Bob Dylan tune

the very good album appetit for déstruction of guns 'n ' roses👍

That was in giants stadium in New Jersey when they were opening for Aerosmith very early on in career.. Could you imagine guns and roses and Aerosmith? That'd be a freakin amazing concert!
