This entire album is awesome. Guns N Roses actually came in just at the end of the "Hair Band" era, and were a little different from bands like Poison, Motley Crue, Warrant, Ratt, etc. I think these guys were just hard rock and they had their own sound. I was blown away the first time I listened to this tape.
@@capoditutticapos19 it was a combination of loads of things. Punk; the ramones and Dead Boys and the stooges. glam punk; new York dolls and hanoi rocks. Then there's Motorhead, kiss, slade, Mot the Hoople, Nazareth, van Halen and some metal bands.
Very cool to see you checking out my favorites from the 80’s T, I still really love and still appreciate the bands and music /videos. This video was actually filmed a little over two years after the Appetite for Destruction album was released in July 1987 so they blown up big time and toured the world in support of the album, which started with Mötley Crüe and their Girls, Girls, Girls album came out that same year (‘87, that is). If you watch again and listen to what Axl said to introduce the song, they “spent $150 grand on something we want to see” and he mentioned that it was going on the “home video”. Peace!
This type of music was made for the young men who where adrenaline junkies full of testosterone, it took everything to a new level from partying, working 💪 out,sports ,driving fast, to fast girls, you name it ,it was cutting edge. So glad I got to experience it ,it was just exciting and fun !
My first hard rock concert experience was in 1990 when I was 15. I was involved with an older gal at the time, and she wanted me to come with her to see Skid Row opening for Guns 'n Roses. Well...I was deeply into thrash metal during that period but agreed to accompany her if she supplied my ticket, hotel room, and some "refreshments" lol She was ecstatic and took care of the arrangements. We get to Birmingham and get settled in our room before making our way to the horse racing track where the event was being held. It had stormed something fierce the night before and was actually still drizzling rain when we arrived. Making our way through the gate I noticed a fellow who is already passed out in the nearby bushes. The place is quite muddy and becoming more so by the minute. By showtime, the mud is almost ankle deep, and countless numbers of people are covered head to toe. Skid Row takes the stage and absolutely slays their set. After waiting 35-45 minutes, G 'n R finally kicks off into their performance. Mud and plastic cups are flying all over the place; a few of the cups end up on stage. Axl gets pissed off and says that if any more cups end up on stage, he's leaving. Well...almost as soon as the words were out of his mouth another cup flies free and lands a few feet from Axl. He slams the mic down, stomps off stage, soon followed by the rest of the band, and they do not return. I think they played 3 or 4-ish songs in total. Personally, I didn't care because Axl's vocals up until that point were less than impressive. The next morning, my lady and I were listening to the radio...and they start talking about the show last night. Apparently over 100 abandoned shoes were found in the mud. Skid Row - 👍 Guns 'n Roses - 👎 🤘
From GNR: Nightrain, Rocket Queen, Out To Get Me, Mr Brownstone, My Michelle, You Could Be Mine, Civil War, Right Next Door To Hell, Don't Damn Me, Estranged, Shadow Of Your Love, Better, I.R.S, Sorry
This album got out as i was in first grade at school at 1987. I propably heard first time GNR song at 1988 from radio and it was Welcome to the jungle. Damn! I was sold at that moment. So i´ve listened GNR 34 years now.
The record actually debuted in 87'. Easily of the strongest debut records ever made. It set the 1980's on it's ear that's for sure. Love your channel my man!!
I cannot tell you how refreshing this was after a decade of "Turn up! ... the radio!" and "Talk dirty to me!" na na na na na na na yeah, this was the real sh!t. Technically harder than whatever was passing for metal at the time. Grunge didn't appear out of nowhere. Rock and roll should never be a thing your parents "don't mind". In 87, Guns saved rock.
There is an uncensored version of this video, but I can’t imagine TH-cam would allow it. Another one you have to check out is Night Train - by Guns N Roses. Every song on this album is amazing. They were the ultimate doing drugs, dating models, cussing, getting in fights, offending everyone type of band. Truly rockstars. Axl Rose would get in fights with the crowd. Look it up.
This entire album ( and specifically this song) take me back to high school years, being drunk at the local summertime fair and winning prizes like switch blades at the low -brow booths. I never thought I'd miss that life so much!
That mid to late 80's observation you made reminded me of how different the world was back then. I would do almost anything to go back. You said it accurately too, there was a lot of hybrid styles. Most seem to agree that hard rock/heavy metal peeked between summer of 91 and summer of 92. There was absolutely no such thing as the internet or downloads to sabotage how these bands were making great money. Cassettes were $11.99 and CD's were $17.99. The record companies did not get a percentange of merchandise, publishing, or touring either like they do now. That video was filmed right before the infamous four night run with the Rolling Stones at the Los Angeles Coliseum. According to their autobiographies, Steven, Izzy, and Slash were deep into heroin and cocain addiction at the time of filming that video. Axl allegedly berated David Bowie in the audience at that Cathouse concert. Very hard to believe they all looked so athletic and healthy.
The girl in the S&M outfit chained up is Axl's former wife Erin Everly (Daughter of Don Everly,of The Everly Brothers). Sweet Child O' Mine was written about her
We had so much fun back then - we rocked the house down! Sadly now everyone just wants to fight and hurt one another to where no one wants to go out. Today's time sux
JUST FOUND channel :) your NEWFOUND joy for this music makes ALL metal heads proud👍🤘! INCIDENTALLY... GN'R (tho' same era) were always considered STEP ABOVE their contemporaries.
From what I remember looking back on it now, the 80s started with distinct(ish) bubbles - NWBHM like Iron Maiden and Judas Priest, Thrash like Metallica and Megadeth, Glam metal like Motley Cure and Poison, and Hard Rock like ACDC or Alice Cooper; etc. By the end of the decade (and especially on into the 90s) there were a million genres with individual songs (let alone bands) criss crossing around all of them. A bit like dog breeds: Labradors and Alsatians and Frenchies are all different, but share much in common and differences are not always universal
I heard a rumor that this video took so long to be released because for awhile Erin Everly,Axls ex wife wasn't on good terms with Axl and now since then they've been on friendly terms. I'm just glad it was finally released. 🤘
Well I used to listen to a lot of Speed Metal when Guns and Roses came out so I consider Guns and roses to be hard blues rock. I absolutely loved their music especially the debut album Appetite for Destruction. I had this on cassette tape lol and I played the heck out of it as did my friends. 🤘🏼
Same with me. I started listening to Metallica and Slayer right before Squirt guns and posers came out. I always liked their music but I just laughed at all my friends that said it was so heavy
@@lespaul2000 Same as Patrick above, Metallica and Slayer but also Megadeth, motorhead, anthrax - keep in mind it was the 80's, I also loved listening to some Punk, I call it metal punk. Suicidal Tendencies and Minor Threat were two of my favorites. During the 80's Judas Priest , Screaming for Vengeance Album was really good. There is so much more now, at times i feel a bit lost. lol.
DUDE I was the biggest GNR fan in 87 you have ever seen, I was listening to nothing current in 87 until GNR hit the scene about the time I was learning guitar by playing LYNYRD SKYNYRD and Jimi Hendrix ...I wanted to be Slash so bad it aint even funny. lol...seen them live in 88 open for Areosmith. Song came out in 87
This song and Appetite for Destruction came out in 1987. There was a version of this video but it was never released- the woman in bondage with Axl Rose's wife, Erin Everly. The video was completely re-edited and released officially for the first time several years ago.
They released this video just a few years ago. Mtv would never play this even today lol. Not sure I ever heard it on the radio. But back in the summer of 88 if you went to a party you couldn't miss it. Best album ever
G&R were the king of sleaze rock.Believe it or not, the critics loved their music.They weren’t another glam band, but more like a classic hard rock band, and they were real, not some posers. They lived their songs, and they lived rock & roll.
You guys know the story of LA guns and Hollywood Rose.... I don't know if the TH-camr does but I don't see any comments talkin about that. Thanks to the channel
Liking some Glam metal is a dirty little secret for a lot of people. I loved Black metal bands, death metal bands, heavy metal bands, but you throw on a Ratt song from one of their first two albums and you'll see me geek out. There are some decent glam metal bands. Many of the guitarist from those 80's bands can play almost any type of metal. Warren DeMartini is a brilliant guitarist.
Just a PG-13 taste of what the 80s rock scene was like for bands like GnR, Motley Crue, Van Halen who were at the top of the rock world at that time and were legendary party bands beyond what most normal people could possibly live through. Somehow most of those guys did get through it and still perform at a high level even today, saw Guns n Roses a few years ago and they were tremendous
Guns ‘n Roses bridged that gap that was needed between glam rock and grunge metal. If it wasn’t for them probably would of been no Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Sound Garden, Smashing Pumpkins etc.
Its great that you are checking out some popular bands from the late 80s but there are some other great bands that are lesser known from that era that you should check out. Britny Fox "Long Way To Love", Dangerous Toys "Teas'n, Pleas'n" and BulletBoys "Smooth Up In Ya". Dive down deep in the 80s metal rabbit hole. Keep up the great work.
one of the reason GNR and other band were dress like that was for picture that they were paired for. They did bot have money and they were ready to to do anything that can bring money
For their time and place they were the most dangerous Rock n Roll band in the world. The music was dirty and the lyrics weren't just highly singable, they kept people talking. Never metal, but unabashedly nasty rock they brought the listener into the gutter and taught us to like it. Mighty in all ways.
One of my favorite gnr songs, off of one of the best debut albums in rock history, along with led zeppelin one and Metallica's kill em all. In the early 80's, before this genre had a name it was referred to as sleaze rock in the LA area. By mid 80's, everything with long hair and guitars from even mildly hard rock to thrash was lumped together as heavy metal. Rocket queen is a great track too! Axl is actually fucking a chick in the instrumental part where you can hear her sex sounds. I just suggest the whole album though.
Guns n Roses were the best selling touring band of all time. In the 90s they sold more albums than the Beatles. Made more money off Use Your Illusion 1-2 than the Beatles ever made at that time. Then they got weird and shitty. The end.
The most Kick Ass Song from the Album. I love how the Guitar Crashs in......I think also that they had a very Unique Style Music Wise there is almost nothing Alike it. There is No Band Before and After that Sounds anything Like that. They were only around 20 when they created this Music. And they created it fast like it was Handed to them from A higher Power. These very strong Songs just popped out of this particular Collective. It is Mindblowing....Grunge got Past them in their Downfall....but no one can Say they were a shitty Or debatable Band. This is Just very Good and Creative Rock n Roll, Punk, Hardrock. GNR was very Unique in No Way they were like Hanoi Rocks, Crue, Poison etc etc. Music Wise. When People say they are in a League with Zepplin, Doors, Stones etc. I say it is True. GNR was the Band who kept the Spirit Of Rock N Roll ,in its wider Sense, Alive , back then. Lies and Use Your Illusions is Great Music Also.
The brunette with curly hair all tied up is Erin Everly, Axls first wife. David Bowie was In attendance at the cathouse that night and allegedly tried it on with Erin and Axl punched him apparently
GNR is epic. I was alive and remember both times they broke! Hell, yes, GNR is not politically correct. I am a woman and I f---ing love GNR. I have The Spaghetti Incident on casette tape! LOL
When Appetite for Destruction came out, there was NOBODY else like Guns N Roses. The closest band as far as being hardcore, and they were in their own right, was Motley Crue. But it still wasn't the same. GNR was on their own level, and that's why they shot up to #1.
Even before listening to their music, just looking at their album art, you just knew these guys were gonna be different. Then you listened to the music. Yep.
i know i am completely bias in this comment because i was 8 years old when Appetite came out and they have been my fav band since. but that being said its a perfect album. every song is not just good its great. if i had to pick one that is my least fav(and i really cant) it would be this song, and this song is fucking amazing. thats how good the whole album is. i do agree that the big 3 songs are well over played but that doesnt take away from how great the album was and still is. 50 years from now a kid will hear this album and it will rock his world just like it did mine and many others when it first came out
G'n'R managed to pull off what few other bands could do. Early on, they got booked as the opening act for a much larger band, and ended up basically being the headliner. When they were done performing and the lights came on to change the stage, many in the audience left. They quickly got booked as the headliner. Two other bands I can think of off the top of my head to do this were Metallica when they opened for Ozzy in 1986. In most venues, about 75% of the audience would leave. Lynyrd Skynyrd opened for the Rolling Stones. The audience would be on their feet all through Skynyrd, then sit all through the Stones. Mick and Keith were PISSED!
Appetite for Destruction is one of the greatest albums ever! Every song on it rocks!
Every song on "Appetite For Destruction" has cowbell in it, Christopher Walken should be proud.
lol
What’s up one nation 👍 whodey 👍
@@cryptkeeper4532 what up crypt.🤘😎🤘who dey baby.
I got a fever, and the only prescription is more cow bell!
Not sweet child o mine or rocket Queen or …
Lmaoooo I was waiting for your facial expression when the "turn around, bitch" lyric happened. Did not disappoint lol
When GNR ruled the world. 87-89. Such a fun time to be alive.

87-92

early gnr was a combo of ac/dc aerosmith type blues rock and punk.
@@capoditutticapos19 exactly, and just like AC/DC and Aerosmith, you can't really compare them to any other band. They all had something unique.
@@capoditutticapos19 it was a combination of loads of things. Punk; the ramones and Dead Boys and the stooges. glam punk; new York dolls and hanoi rocks. Then there's Motorhead, kiss, slade, Mot the Hoople, Nazareth, van Halen and some metal bands.
they killed the hair band era
Very cool to see you checking out my favorites from the 80’s T, I still really love and still appreciate the bands and music /videos.

Appetite for Destruction Is one of the greatest albums of all time. That is all!!!
It truly is. It is as heavy today as it was the day of its release.
Night Train next!
"I love that stuff"
This type of music was made for the young men who where adrenaline junkies full of testosterone, it took everything to a new level from partying, working 💪 out,sports ,driving fast, to fast girls, you name it ,it was cutting edge. So glad I got to experience it ,it was just exciting and fun !
I can only speak about the UK, but this music was WAY more popular with girls than with guys here!!

Those years were my high school years, i graduated in 89-90 i love that period. Actually the song came out in '87 it's on the Appetite For Destruction
Yeah. Took forever for that album to take off.
The band is so wild, and every song of them is a kick ass. LOVE IT

It is THE strongest debut record of all time. Or at least the best selling.

appetite for destruction was the greatest rock album of the 80’s 🤘🏻🤘🏻
First song I ever heard the "F" word in as a kid...I was shocked and I was enthralled...lol
You would love the Guns n Roses, Live At The Ritz ! You’ll love it!!!
The late 80's the glam scene was huge. I miss those days
I saw G n R live 4 different times in the 80s!
Seeing Axl in his prime must be fucking great
so lucky
Best rock album ever made hands down.
From what I remember looking back on it now, the 80s started with distinct(ish) bubbles - NWBHM like Iron Maiden and Judas Priest, Thrash like Metallica and Megadeth, Glam metal like Motley Cure and Poison, and Hard Rock like ACDC or Alice Cooper; etc. By the end of the decade (and especially on into the 90s) there were a million genres with individual songs (let alone bands) criss crossing around all of them.

This is my favorite song by GNR. Thanks for reacting to them ❤. Much love to you and your family 💕Brandi Modrak 💕
Great Hard Rock Band!!
I heard a rumor that this video took so long to be released because for awhile Erin Everly,Axls ex wife wasn't on good terms with Axl and now since then they've been on friendly terms. I'm just glad it was finally released. 🤘
This song still kicks ass. Saw GN’R live in UK Twice. They are still my favourite band.
I requested this a while back! Thank You!!

Yup, this was made for the "home video", never showed on Mtv
The 80's were great for music, even better for music videos! Back then women were allowed to be sexy, and we were allowed to think so.
Allowed? I’ll do whatever the hell I want, and say whatever I’d like….but I get your point.

they are hard rock band with punk attitude, yeah not a glam
Been listening to GNR since I was 13 (30 years now). I'm a huge fan. Seeing them in November. I didn't know they had a video for this song?

It was definitely on the edge back then...

Awesome !
I saw them on that tour, they opened for Aerosmith in Cincinnati. Anyone remember that show?
Appetite for Destruction is a great album. Guns and Roses were the first blow to the hair metal genre.

GNR was very Unique in No Way they were like Hanoi Rocks, Crue, Poison etc etc. Music Wise. When People say they are in a League with Zepplin, Doors, Stones etc. I say it is True.
GNR was the Band who kept the Spirit Of Rock N Roll ,in its wider Sense, Alive , back then.
Lies and Use Your Illusions is Great Music Also.
That song was written by Duff McKagan
The brunette with curly hair all tied up is Erin Everly, Axls first wife. David Bowie was In attendance at the cathouse that night and allegedly tried it on with Erin and Axl punched him apparently
The woman in the bandage outfit is the singer Axl Roses girlfriend and then wife, Erin Everly.
I miss the 70's and 80's, so much better music.
This was Guns N' Roses at their best. A down and dirty, sleazy, grimy, Sunset Strip Rock 'N' Roll band.
Guns are bit of everything, labeled hard rock, but mostly hard rock, blues, with a dash of punk
I was in 8th grade when this album broke. Good times
GNR should be put under the GNR music genre. And that's it.
GNR is hard rock, but it's the kind of hard rock that metal heads can get into.
GNR is epic. I was alive and remember both times they broke! Hell, yes, GNR is not politically correct. I am a woman and I f---ing love GNR. I have The Spaghetti Incident on casette tape! LOL
When Appetite for Destruction came out, there was NOBODY else like Guns N Roses. The closest band as far as being hardcore, and they were in their own right, was Motley Crue. But it still wasn't the same. GNR was on their own level, and that's why they shot up to #1.
Even before listening to their music, just looking at their album art, you just knew these guys were gonna be different. Then you listened to the music. Yep.
this is the best song, next to Mr. Brownstone!
i know i am completely bias in this comment because i was 8 years old when Appetite came out and they have been my fav band since. but that being said its a perfect album. every song is not just good its great. if i had to pick one that is my least fav(and i really cant) it would be this song, and this song is fucking amazing. thats how good the whole album is. i do agree that the big 3 songs are well over played but that doesnt take away from how great the album was and still is. 50 years from now a kid will hear this album and it will rock his world just like it did mine and many others when it first came out
G'n'R managed to pull off what few other bands could do. Early on, they got booked as the opening act for a much larger band, and ended up basically being the headliner. When they were done performing and the lights came on to change the stage, many in the audience left. They quickly got booked as the headliner. Two other bands I can think of off the top of my head to do this were Metallica when they opened for Ozzy in 1986. In most venues, about 75% of the audience would leave. Lynyrd Skynyrd opened for the Rolling Stones. The audience would be on their feet all through Skynyrd, then sit all through the Stones. Mick and Keith were PISSED!
They blew headliners off the stage…Aerosmith was one
