"Is that Slash?" Explosion of black hair , sometimes under a top hat, cigarette in mouth, sound of incredible guitar? Yep. That's Slash.

Axl Rose was from the Midwest and he grew up in church choirs and he has a six octave range and he would screw with the choir director by singing all kinds of different parts and messing it up intentionally to play with the conductor's head so it one point he'll be singing Bass the next minute he'll be singing soprano. Coming from a church background yourself I think you'd appreciate that.

i used to be in love with a girl. She didn't noticed me.... listened to this song 100 times in a row, gave me peace, and realise i had to be patienced. She is my wife now. GNR helped me trough me difficult childhood many times

This was one of their biggest hits.

You're officially a G n R fan.

It’s a ballad bro so yes it’s slow but a fricken masterpiece. ✌🏼

Yes, this is a 20k song. 🎸

When you do Welcome to the Jungle.....buckle up.

Axl Rose has amazing vocals! He has mastered his craft with vast diversity. There is definitely noone else that can sing these songs like he can! Thanks for appreciating great music and trying to break it down to understand it better!❤

Perfect song for your 20k. This is one of GNR's most beautiful songs that had couples falling in love for many long years. You have entered into the lighter side of the Power Ballad subgenre, and it's a whole different thing that happened during the 80's and 90's. A short list in the Power Ballad subgenre include ... Poison - Every rose has its thorn Bryan Adams - Heaven Warrant - Heaven Mötley Crüe - Home Sweet Home (1985) Slaughter - Fly To The Angels (1990) Boston - Amanda Cinderella - Don’t Know What You Got (Til It’s Gone) Whitesnake - Is This Love Damn Yankees - High Enough

Gave you a sub, kid. Even though you say it "wasnt lit" Ill cut you a break. One of my favorite songs of all time. GnR is the only band that I can actually remember where I was when I first heard them.

A great example of a "Power Ballad" ... this was 80's hairband Rock... killer songs that make you want to break shit followed up by a ballad .. one for the guys and one for the ladies .. lol they knew how to work it

You made the right decision, I love Patience. It's my favorite song from them.

Yus its slash on acoustic and do dont cry by guns, you'll love it.

I was blown away when Axl Rose whistled live... idk but I thought he would't whistle in a live concert.... The best Rock band forever

To kind of answer your question, they are considered heavy metal and/or hard rock depending on who you ask. They can do acoustic songs as well. This was the lead single off their EP Lies, the follow up to their debut album Appetite for Destruction. The EP had basically two sides, an all acoustic new material side and the other was basically re-releasing their EP they had out before they broke with Appetite for Destruction.

It's a ballad, not necessarily a "sad" song. The more you dive into 80's rock/metal you'll realize that EVERY band has at least 1 hit ballad. Some will be slower & softer than others, but it was almost a formula for bands at the time. Release a cd & the 1st single is a banger. 2nd single will be a ballad. 3rd single will go back to being a rocker. Literally every band has ballads. Some ballads are break up songs & some are love songs. For some bands their ballad would wind up being their only hit, but it was pretty much required to release a ballad on every cd/album. Bon Jovi is pretty much the king of epic/hit love ballads. Jon Bon Jovi used to joke that some men buy their wives Tiffany jewelry, he writes his wife hit love songs.

The other guitarists are Izzy Stradlin and Duff McKegan (the bassist)

Totally acoustic. 3 different guitars, 3 different sounds. Beautiful!

Once Kiss came out with "Beth" every hard rock act for the next twenty years had to come up with a signature rock ballad. GNR had a few of 'em. This is their second power ballad after "Sweet Child O' Mine"..

So fine is a super underrated song by them

Don't try to over analyze the music...just listen, and you will get most of the answers you're looking for. Enjoy it...that's the joy of music ❤

They really did sound that good live, it was crazy...

5:00 Because they're amazing. It's great to see a guy who listens to rap and enjoys rock ecc. Usually rap listeners (those who I know) hate this "old music", I'm happy you like it, YOU HAVE TO REACT TO MY MICHELLE!!!

Axl stated that he wanted each Album to be very different, and I think he accomplished it.

I feel in love with Axel after this song... 😍

Yes Axl Rose is the singer n slash is the lead guitarist... ALL Rock bands, metal, hair metal whatever had their 'usual' sound n then had ballads...that's what THIS is, a ballad, like a smooth love song💖🌹

Listen to Welcome to the Jungle and Mr. Brownstone.

You want lit? You Could Be Mine, Welcome to the Jungle, Outta Get Me, Double Talkin Jive, Locomotive, Shotgun Blues, ....

Since you're on a GNR roll, a cool back to back one would be Don't Cry both the original AND the alternate lyrics. Some other really good ones are Nighttrain, You Could Be Mine, and Mr. Brownstone

Really you NEED to do Guns and Roses Its So Easy!!!! Don't sleep. No cap.

One of the great power ballads! Love this song.

One of my favorites. Izzy straddlin wrote this, rhythm guitarist, the true soul of this band. Talented group at their best, wish they stuck together longer.

I see Guns & Roses and I click! Please do more Guns & Roses and more Motley Crue, these are my two favorite bands! You have to do Welcome To The Jungle and for Motley Crue I recommend Wild Side, Primal Scream and Home Sweet Home!

That whistle at the beginning of the song is Axel. It was amazing

It’s Slash playing all the leads

As with most GnR songs every song has a meaning behind it. This was about Axl and his ex-wife Erin Everly.

Appetite for Destruction (1987) 10/10 their heaviest record GNR Lies (1988) Controversy album, half live, half acoustic, only 8 songs Use Your Illusion I & II (1991) Incorporated more blues and classic rock into their sound The Spaghetti Incident (1993) covers album, last album to feature Slash & Duff Everyone left the band, only Axl remained but he became a recluse and took $14M and 16 years to release Guns N Roses next album 'Chinese Democracy' (2008) Slash and Duff are not apart of the album, it's a pretty good album Slash and Duff returned in 2016 :)

Songs like these are the Rock Ballards..beautiful beautiful ballads that are timeless.

the best version of Patience is from the 1989 American music awards that's what got me into it i was 18.

Sweet child of mine

You are truly gifted! You hear music in a way that not many others can hear. I'm a new fan.

One of my favorite gnr songs. We really get to hear the softer side of Axl Roses voice. And the change in his voice and melody near the end. You are so smart and observant! Yes Slash on acoustic! Always large black hair and top hat often! This song may not be lit in the way you mean, but it was a song to chill to again and again and comforted thousands in our generation! So frickin real bro! ❤️😎

I really appreciate the fact that you post the lyrics to all of your reactions. Good job!

It's a power ballad....and one of the best choices you could have made to celebrate hitting 20K. One of many amazing power ballads out there. ❤

Just do the whole Appetite For Destruction Album. It is one of the most aggressive albums you will ever hear. Not one bad song on it.

There are actually 3 guitars playing. Slash is lead, Izzy is secondary and Duff is rhythm

In the 80s it was about the music and song! This song show cases GnRs talent. The went on to do more ballads. One of the many reason they where and still are so loved is each song spoke to you!

IMO, one of the greatest love songs ever made.

Yes lead singer is axl rose. My heart.

I love Patience. it's one of those songs I sing when I want to comfort myself. If you're reacting to Guns and Roses you need to listen to Estranged! One of their most beautiful and well-written songs.

Congratulations JoJo on 20k really enjoy your reactions. :)

Congrats on 20,000!! You rock. 🤘🤘🤘🤘

Poison: every rose has its thorn

Guns n Roses -Yesterdays. One of their top 5 songs

Grats on 20k Jojo!

Thank You JoJo, you bring happiness to the internet and culture perspective to every song & video. Absolute Respect for you @20k 👀 + 1 more.... JD

You already got a fan from Portugal dude! Love your videos

ITS SO EASY OFFICIAL VIDEO!!!! Guns N Roses 🌹 & Sweet Child O’Mine.

Oh, you already did it. You're the best!

Don't cry! Slash and his girl goin for a drive =D

Congrats on 20k

Congrats on the 20k

congrats on getting 20k

"Maybe I was meant to hear this now "... What a great attitude this young man has!! 👏

I think it's time for "its so easy" by guns n roses. It's got a pretty nice music video to it too😉😉 and even "don't cry" by gnr. You will not be disappointed with any of their songs. Their all legendary

LEAD SINGER IS AXLE ROSE .GNR GREAT BAND .

YES! You nailed it.... all of their songs sound so different from the others

Don't cry alternative lyrics. Very interesting.

Nice reaction man ! U should definitely check out some live performances. I highly recommend u Nightrain live in Tokyo 1992. One of their best shows

Be strong and courageous! Amen!

Just saw them live this past week. 🔥 AF

Well it's one of guns and roses fans favorite songs for a lot of them so I'd say it's a good song for your 20K

Congrats hitting the 20,ooo....perfect song for it. Love this song, Welcome to the Jungle should be next though, they have tons of hit songs.

When I was young and couldn’t sleep, I would put on my cassette tape of this song. It was like a lullaby…It calmed my mind and I was asleep by the end of the song.

ok first off: another great reaction! seriously, one of my favorite channels I've come across. ive commented on like 3 videos tonight, so I hope I'm not being annoying with all the notifications, but for another couple GNR songs, Double Talkin' Jive and 14 Years are some great tunes

Congrats on 20k. I’ve been here since before you got 5k. Lol

Estranged is my ultimate favorite song from Guns 😁

One of my all time fave songs.

One of my fav songs of all time

Mr. Big - "To be With You"

Its def a 20k song. Very good observation btw of the song breaking apart and coming back together.

Slash is awesome acoustically and electric. Awesome job brother.

Musicians and bands of any quality are usually versatile like this...they often cross genres because they are just that good ❤

Chop it up more, you are a definite youtube veteran 👏👏👏👏

This is one of my favorite songs

this was such a huge hit

Dope!

@9:05, yes it was, he had the lyrics sheet in his hand because he hadn't learned them all yet!!✌ But you're learnin'! Great job so far JoJo! I've been watching your dad's channel for quite a while now...glad to see you doin your thing now!!👍💖💕

Started with your pops.... I'm all in with ya

Damn Bruh you really did felt the music

Dave Chappelle did the _"Axl Patience"_ dance at the end of the _"White People Can't Dance"_ skit with John Mayer on the _Chappelle Show,_ 2004.

Yes, he is really whistling :)

My fave GNR. Beautiful love song 😍

The split and coming back together is known as a movement

Its one of their best songs alot of the song are great
