No GNR fans here? I'm shocked.![]()
number 1 for me. If I remember correctly. It's been a few years since I've dusted those off...
Never kick a fresh turd on a hot day.
Home Setup: Sony VPL-VW85 Projo, 92" Stewart Firehawk, Denon 3310 (pre/pro), PS3, Xbox 360, Myryad MA-500 5ch amp, RTi12 fronts, CSi5, FXi6 rears, RTi6 surround backs, RTi4 height, MFW-15 Subwoofer, Sanus UF26 & NF36 Stands, and most wires by Cobalt.
Car Setup: OEM Radio, RF 360.2v2, Polk SR6500 quad amped off 4 Xtant 1.1 100w mono amps, Xtant 6.1 to run an eD 13av.2, all Stinger wiring and Raammat deadener.
The only song I really remember off of Use Your Illusion was November Rain.
Honestly, I'd listen to both on acontinuous loop over that new single they put out. God awful
If you will it, dude, it is no dream.
I voted II.
I like their cover of "Knockin of Heaven's Door."

I'm not saying she's a slut, but if her vagina had a password...it would be password.
Both are great. 1 gets my vote in a close race.
For me...Illusion 1 is better. (I own both anyway :P)
Classics like don't cry or november rain are fabulous. AXL COME BACK !!!!
Voted for 1 also but both are good...
Actually have 1 on my mp3 player.

G N' R fan here, keep on looking around the corner....I have a feeling that AXL is finally going to be releasing Chinese Democracy V. 10.2, this album has gone through so many revisions, I wonder what is left on it from when it was first recorded (97?)
AXL's time has come and gone......he's a has been. The best, and I use that word lightly, was Appetite For Destruction. G-N-R had it's day, perhaps it's week, but they flamed out and their legacy will be there, but for me they are way... way down the list.

in retrospect, I agree. But i can't help but think that November Rain, Don't Cry and especially 'eEstranged' (the original intended video trilogy) are some of the best examples of power ballads i've ever heard.Originally Posted by heiney9
I always enjoy listening to some songs by G-N-R, but they were never in my heavy rotation. Mostly just get an urge to dig some out now and then, mostly then however. Lots and Lots of great power ballads out there, so in the grand scheme, the songs you mentioned get lost with many other very good ballads. Just recently pulled out Home Sweet Home by Motley Crue. Not a huge Crue fan but still enjoy them once in awhile.Originally Posted by aaharvel

home sweet home was another good one.
basically i'm just re-living my days from jr. high.
back then it was guns n'roses, motley crue, def leppard, and great white. Metallical never did much for me.
All the bands with the exception of Great White I used to listen too, for me it was high school. For me their very first albums were their best. Of course this doesn't include all the classic rock bands I listened to, just speaking of these 4 bands.Originally Posted by aaharvel
G-N-R- Appetite for Destruction
Motley- Too fast For Love & (Hon. Men.) Shout At The Devil
Def Leppard- On Thru The Night
Metallica- Kill Em All & Ride The Lightening
Those are the ones worth listening too again, IMO ;)
