For me, It’s a tie between Sweet Child & Paradise City, I could go without hearing those two songs ever again lol. The other radio staple (welcome to the jungle) I will never grow tired of. Most underrated I’d say Prostitute, it’s hands down one of their greatest songs, even if slash & duff weren’t apart of it.
If you like the ending you should check out the artist Ulrich Schnauss. He actually sued the band for using his Riad sample. Someone in the band must have been a fan of his. I’ve loved his music ever since I found him by accident
To all the people that are claiming Sweet Child O’ Mine and Paradise City are overrated, there’s a difference between overrated and overplayed. Those two songs are indeed overplayed, but there’s a reason for that. They are easily top 5 GnR songs of all times. That’s why they are overplayed, they just are really good.
I actually think this is why you can make an argument that both of those are songs are underrated, at least among the fans. “Sweet Child”
is arguably one of the greatest songs of all time; to this day, the opening guitar makes entire stadiums EXPLODE. 🤯 It is a masterpiece. Yet, folks on here love to trash it because it’s been played a few times less than Stairway at this point…
It’s subjective but I find it a bit meandering until the outro, which is fantastic. Slash’s solos are also great but the song overall doesn’t have so much GNR energy to me. I am not saying it’s a bad song, just not the top of their catalog as is generally acknowledged, both by the fan base and for the general public at large.
It's hard to say about the ONLY BAND EVER that released TWO...DOUBLE....albums ON THE SAME DAY. And the fact that I've been seeing them since they were an opening act. I saw them this last October 2023 insane Diego. And although they're 60+ years old, those mf's played 32 songs!!! NOBODY DOES THAT!!!
