Metal Monday! - Guns N' Roses


I remember when this album came out back in '87, (I was in elementary school) Anyways Welcome to the Jungle was everywhere and of course I ate it up. One of my cousins worked at a record store at the time and she sent my brother & I Guns N' Roses t-shirts. I was so excited but when my mom saw them she immediately took them away and sent them back. At the time I didn't understand what was wrong with skulls & needles. I guess I didn't get the whole "heroin imagery" back in the day. Anyways we've all heard and overheard the hit songs off this album. Songs like Paradise City, Sweet Child of Mine, and Welcome to the Jungle are great but after hearing them for the last 20 years I've kind of gotten burnt out on em. (Kind of like hearing Stairway to Heaven or Satisfaction)- Although I never get tired of Patience (see below) Alright enough gabbing, here's my favorite track from Appetite.
