If you like old band playing variety of music from metal rock to ballads song, you should listen to a Japanese Band called X Japan. The ballads song are really great, the rock songs are also good. And the vocalist has a very unique voice also. You will like it. 😄
6 years as he started writing it in 1985 not long after the band had formed. Watch the video documentary called Making Fkin Videos Part 2 as Axl says this.
@@MrsPenPal When this song came out I was in high school, it was a huge hit but to be honest I went for the songs not played on the radio by them. Don't Damn Me is a really good one and Coma is a even better one. In fact Coma hits me hard as I was on a self destructive path that almost ended my life. I loved your reaction to this song though.
This is Axl's song. He begun writing it years before it was anywhere close to being released. His vision for the entire song has so many layers, and as you said, so many emotions. It is a masterpiece. November Rain is my fav. song. GnR is my fav. band of all time. The video is indeed based on the short story "Without You" by Del James, but the song itself is not based on that short story. The video is a part of a trilogy: “Don't Cry,” “November Rain,” and “Estranged.”
Axl Rose's notes span nearly six octaves. Mariah Carey's vocal range isn't even that extensive. Axl has a lower baritone than Barry White, and can reach higher notes than Tina Turner and Beyoncé. Very talented!
Guitar solo is legendary, first one that truly made me feel goosebumps, and yes the phrasing is largely attributed to that physiological reaction; beautiful
This was the first band I was truly into, whose hard debut album roped me into rock music. But then they followed that up with much more elaborate, epic and accomplished songs like this. Their sound just grew by leaps and bounds. All sorts of deep feelings here, and as a group they had grown up.
I think I picked up on a clue to her death. When she was getting in the car to go to the reception she didn't smile at all, not even when he looked at her. I think she knew she was going to die. No one at all mentions this in any of the other reaction videos except one. I mentioned it to them and they were astounded when they rewatched and felt the same.
This really was an amazing song that is truly an amazing musical experience, and over the years, even though sweet of mine was the first guns n roses song I heard growing up and still love that song, November rain has become a favorite, because it is so complex and rich, not too mention slash playing that guitar and making it almost like tears falling, he truly made emotions with the notes he played 😁 love it. BTW I loved your reaction,it was soo fun because you really felt the music, and you are sooo beautiful btw 😍
The day after my wife’s funeral would’ve been our Anniversary. Within weeks, this video and this song was in heavy-rotation everywhere ….. literally everywhere. It was inescapable.
November rain is my all time favourite song. However, it wasn't in the beginning it took some time to fall in love with this song. Sweet child of mine is more likeable as a song. What makes November rain so special is when you watch the video and see everything from the theatre, orchestra and the guitar solo everything falls in place and makes it complete and you can't undo the feeling for this song. I used to listen to it on repeat for over a year.
It is not a "circle of life" video. It's never stated directly but there are hints throughout the video of what happened to the bride. Some hints: The glass in the coffin covering... something. The way she gets into the car The town focuses on only one store when he is walking by
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. From Solihin in Central Jakarta. Indonesia. 💖👫💖👫👌👍👏👏.
My fave Guns N’ Roses song. Love all of them but I’ve watched this video countless times. It is EPIC. Axl was the only writer I believe he worked on it for ten or more years. It’s part of a trilogy based on James story. This song is part 2 part 1 is the song don’t cry and part 3 is the song Estranged. All are classics. Listen to them in order to get the point of them. Great reaction btw.
I saw Tesla open for Def Leppard...Kings X opened for ACDC and saw Lynyrd Skynyrd at least 6 times ...seen Charlie Daniels..Styx..Foreigner..BB King! and Bad Company along with REO Speedwagon....nothing can replace the magic of those times!
Great music, great song, and a beautiful video. Along with a sad, beautiful, and highly relatable story, I can see why it got so many views. I wasn't aware of this particular Guns and Roses song, so I was caught off guard when they showed the coffin toward the end. I thought Axl (as in the word ax or at, so you were right) Rose played the part well. I enjoyed the Slash guitar solo too. Slash was influenced by several of the great rock bands and guitarists of the 1970's, and he is also a great guitarist. Jimmy Page of Led Zeppelin, guitarist Jeff Beck, bands Aerosmith, Cheap Trick, ACDC, and Black Sabbath to name a few. Great reaction.
When they rereleased this album in 2022 for its 30th anniversary they redid the music and used a real orchestra and even redid the music video audio to have a real orchestra playing. This video was the first video prior to the TH-cam era to surpass 2billion views. Slash improvised the guitar solo he did and the church he walks out of to play the solo they brought in to New Mexico just for the video and Slash said in an interview that the helicopters kept getting too close and was scaring him. They originally had an 18min version of this. I wish they would’ve kept it and released it.
Great job with your reaction to November Rain from Guns and Roses lf you to understand what is happening or what happened at the end of this video you have to check out the rest of the trilogy starting with Don't Cry and November Rain and ending with Estranged.
Good reaction to a classic. But just to explain the video, it was actually the 2nd part of a 3-part song/video series by GnR. Anyway, the story is, that Axl Rose's character had a fiance, but he cheated on her and she ended up taking her own life with a gun. The entire wedding scene is him dreaming of himself and his then-alive fiance actually getting married. But that wedding never took place. What actually took place at the church was her funeral ceremony.
MrsPenPal, You must see and hear GNR " Estranged' Songs concert in Brazil. Axl Sings "The song Estranged While Smoking Wearing A Blue bandana and American Pants". The Song "Estranged" Is The Killer melodies Guitar Slash and Long music Like "November Rain".:Diane Jennings From Solihin In Central Jakarta.I Indonesia. 💖👫💖👍👌👏👏👏👏.
It's such a shame that if it isn't directly the reason, performances like this came to split the band. Axl was such a perfectionist, he really worked on this song for a decade or so,and it was my way or the highway. The others were quite fed up with his perfectionism (and a lot of other issues he had). But it definitely took a toll on the band to create songs like November Rain.
Believe this is about Axl and Erin Everly daughter of Don Everly relationship. They dated for years, broke up, she was pregnant ,they married, miscarriage, then she left him. But he was abusive. The girl in this video swooped in and used him. You can still tell the pain Innis voice.

This took Axl literally 10 years from when he started writing it to getting the composition perfect. 10 years
6 years as he started writing it in 1985 not long after the band had formed. Watch the video documentary called Making Fkin Videos Part 2 as Axl says this.
@@vinniedixon1140 I watched a different one that said 10. Doesn't matter. Long azz time either way
opus magnum of axl rose
I've heard this song probably 1 million times since it came out. I love G N' R. Been listening to them since their first album.
So it’s all your fault 😅 . I appreciate your contributions to the 2.1 billion views and counting😂

His vocals range is 5 octaves and 5 semitones which makes it 5 and a half octaves
Slash walking out of the church & ripping a solo always goes so eternally HARD
This is one of the few times you actually get to see the face of slash.
Great vocals as always from Axl Rose, but Slash also smashing the guitar solo at the end! A classic!
That was a genuinely fun reaction to watch... so candid and knowledgeable... very well done 👏
Guitar solo is legendary, first one that truly made me feel goosebumps, and yes the phrasing is largely attributed to that physiological reaction; beautiful
The greates Rock-Power Ballade of all time 🖤😎🤘

Only one songwriter - Axl himself. But it took YEARS for him to write it.
Es mi cancion favorita, la primer vez la escuche cuándo estaba en el colegio a mis 15 años y hoy con 35 años aun la sigo disfrutando como ese dia.
November Rain isn't just bigger than Sweet Child O'mine, tallking about success. That video changed the history of music
I love your reaction style with the written commentary
Thanks
I've seen the music video for November Rain easily more than 100 times, never get's old.

As a fan of rap/hip hop you’re bang on with the cadence. Great song, great band and great review
Songs 'age' differently. And I think that's why this has more views in this era than SCOM. Over time this one has aged better.

Great reaction, love the hair style and color to
Slash being absolutely iconic ❤
It's a nightmare. Don't you see him take pills and go back to sleep at the start? Later you see he's still sleeping.
Nobody better than Axl Rose!!
I love GNR...seen them in concert back then!
That’s dope you got to see them live👏👏✨✨ I bet it was magical
@@MrsPenPal Among others, will never forget any of them. They opened for Aerosmith.
I saw Tesla open for Def Leppard...Kings X opened for ACDC and saw Lynyrd Skynyrd at least 6 times ...seen Charlie Daniels..Styx..Foreigner..BB King! and Bad Company along with REO Speedwagon....nothing can replace the magic of those times!
