First Time Hearing "Guns N' Roses" 

🤟🏾

When Axl rose (lead singer) first came to LA to pursue his music career, someone yelled to him as he exited the bus, "you know where you are, you're in the jungle baby, you're gonna DIEEEEEE." That was the inspiration for this song.

NEVER EVER pause during a guitar solo, it's the #1 reaction rule

Axl Rose and Slash together are pure magic. I saw them in concert many years ago. Phenomenal!!

if this song couldnt get you up and rocking, you were DEAD.. Axle Rose was unique, his voice sang two tones at once!!...Love your reactions. I'm 63 years old, and I'm so enjoying seeing the younger crowd being turned on to the music from the 70's, 80's

The entire Appetite for Destruction album is incredible

Appetite for Destruction was by far the best rock record of the 80s.

I was 15 years old when I listened to them, I can assure you that this band in the year 92 saved me from depression when my mother died. Listening to them gave me strength, I love them for that❤️

Slash is still one of the best guitar players out there, hands down......

"You can have anything you want, but you better not take it from me." Love that line. This song is off the album Appetite for Destruction". The album is mostly about drugs, partying and addiction.

Wait until you guys hear November Rain! Absolutely EPIC! Song and the video both!

As a 68 year old white woman from Ohio ...they play this song at the beginning of the Cincinnati Bengals football games. It still makes my hair stand on ends. Love watching you guys ❣️

Axl Rose lead singer. Hard to believe he is now 60. Time waits for no one. If you don't die, you WILL get older, and no one should kid themselves about that. I am 62. When I was much younger I was only mind aware that I would get older. As the years go by, you become more EMOTIONALLY aware of your mortality. Slash is now 57.

I've always been a HUGE GNR fan - Slash is up there as one of the best guitarists EVER. Axel's voice at its peak? Second to none! They all had their personal issues but they will always be one of the GOATS of Rock bands imo! For a fast paced song of theirs as well? You could be mine. A slower pace? Don't cry. And a deep pace? Civil war.

Basically Guns N' Roses' “Welcome to the Jungle” draws a parallel between the “jungle” - a harsh, lawless environment - and city life. More specifically, the city it is considered to be referring to is Los Angeles, California. Los Angeles is a place that many people migrate to in search of stardom and fortune...according to song meanings and facts anyway

Watching Lean On Me as a kid and hearing this song in the beginning of the movie I was super hyped. I was floored hearing one of my favorite bands songs playing in a movie.

This album was sick!!!!! I remember when GNR first came on the scene. It was so fresh and new. Their sound was completely different and every song was better than the last one. Good memories of being a teenager driving around in my black Geo Storm 5 speed with GNR cranked up so lound in my car. So glad you have found these songs. ROCK ON!!!

So glad you guys are doing different genres of music. Love Guns and roses!!! Great reaction guys!!!!

I'm 60 yrs old & you guy sare hilarious ...I love your reactions ...we had the best era of music , glad you enjoy it

I have been watching you guys for around 3 months and I love it!!!! You guys are the BOMB!! I am 64 years old an am an avid rock in roller. You bring back a lot of good memories for me while listening to the songs....They sounded even better when stoned... Rock and Roll lives on. You guys keep up the AWESOME job you are doing.

5:14 i love reaction to guy on left with white hat. "YUUUUHHHHHYYYY" when he heard that amazing vocal from Axl 🌹

Speaking of the song Barracuda. Have you listened to Heart? They are the two sisters who did that song. They had some great hits. Crazy On You is another of hits. Ann and Nancy Wilson. Amazing rock artists. Nancy ranks right up there with her ability to play guitar but Ann's voice is pure gold!

Y'all need to check out more songs off this album....every song is awesome. Some popular would be Sweet Child of Mine, Paradise City, Mr Brownstone....most of this album is about the drug scene. My Brownstone is about the struggles of heroin addiction....super awesome song.

I absolutely love you guys! It's so nice to watch your generation enjoy the music I grew up with. You have a new subscriber !!

You guys are really into this! Love your reactions everytime!

Y’all channeling my teenage years! The 80’s were the best! Listen to some Megadeath, Faster Pussycat, LA Guns, Whitesnake, Lita Ford….the list goes on forever! 🤟🏼🤟🏼🤟🏼

Great one by GNR, Vocals out of this world and a jam that really rocks, so much energy...Thanks for reaction, Peace

I never thought I'd hear Hollywood Rose and L .A. Guns being mentioned in a reaction video. Good work! Velvet Revolver is another spin-off band "after " GNR broke up featuring Slash and Duff

oh, I love you guys. It's so much fun sharing these songs with you.

Enjoy the older Rock you will not find this in today's society. Keep'em Coming you guys should check out... "Knockin' On Heaven's Door"

All black rock band Living Colour !!!!!!!! Must watch

Y'all need to hear him sing November Rain! Beautiful song!

omg you guys are awesome! Love GNR and you put me in a great mood! Listen to more!

I actually met Slash as well. But for me it was an amazing experience because I've been a huge Guns N' Roses fan since I was a baby (literally). It was a day I'll never forget.

This was sooo much fun watching you guys react to G&R! You are genuinely music lovers, very insightful, and quite entertaining! As a life long rocker, although I listen to all kinds of music, am so bored with current music that I have to watch others react to my favorite songs. There's such a lack of originality today or maybe I'm just getting old....thank you for an enjoyable few minutes! Rock on!

I was 17 in 1987 when this dropped sent a shockwave through my high school …Class of 1988 the 80’s was a great time to be alive

Axl Rose is in the top 10 people in the world with the widest vocal range! Also, he is son of a preacher!!!

NOW... that's rock and roll. Thanks for this one.❤

I got to see Gins N Rose's back in 2016. One of the best concerts I've been too. And Slash is one of my favorite guitarists of all time and Axl Rose definitely has one of the best vocals in the rock genre besides Freddy Mercury from Queen. The guys from Guns N Rose's still tour and still put on a great show. I recommend seeing them.

I appreciate yall doin these too

As a fellow Louisianan and a 40+ year old who grew up rocking out the GNR, I’m loving watching these young guys reacting to some great stuff! And you guys all seem to show a real appreciation and respect to the music.

Axel Rose! Whoo baby this is the band right here! Saw them live a few years ago, still fire! 🔥 Slash 🎩 is a beast, he didn’t stop playing even for one minute, even when the song ended, he was like twitching lol They had fricken Lenny Kravitz open for them like for real?! It was a great night!

That bands name is Survivor and the song is Eye of the Tiger ... awesome reactions keep grindin fellas

I've heard this band almost 32 years ago on audio cassette they're still rocking ❤

You guys crack me up. Rock on!!! Keep having fun.

You have to do Paradise City next. It rocks and rocks HARD and you'll see Slash in all his glory tearing up that guitar (as well as Axl's insane vocals).

This was revolutionary when I was a kid. Seen this vid on HeadBangers Ball once, went and got the tape the next day! Unreal album!

Axl Rose has one of the most amazing voices. Ever. 🤟💪😎

This was #1 hit back when I was just turning old enough to go to the clubs and man what a time it was! TY!

I've been waiting for you guys to listen to GNR. The original band was short lived but made a huge impact in the late 80's early 90's and their music still holds up. Paradise City and Sweet Child O' Mine are good next selections. I'm trying to ease you in to their catalog.

Barracuda!! Yes, you should react to it! The band is Heart, led by 2 sisters, 1 is the lead singer the other plays guitar. They are huge rockers, even still. Play the official video of the song, you'll love it.

It’s great watching your faces as slash “goes to work”. Just found your channel and really enjoying it. Good stuff👍🏼

yall got a like just for the banter at the beginning and the hype for eye of the tiger!

Can NEVER GO WRONG with guns and roses. Never!

You guys are great!!!! I'm 62yrs young, you guys are fantastic!!!! The jungle is L.A.!!!! Slash's pops did a lot of album art work for the rolling stones, and other bands, that were in England, and U.S., in 60's/70's. Slash was born in Stoke, England

Love this one! Thanks Carter family

Music… the universal language… couldn’t imagine a world without it!! All music is good ❤️

Eye Of The Tiger is from the band called Survivor. Slash also played the guitar in the song Give Into Me by Micheal Jackson. Great song and video!

Man, I look forward to seeing your reactions. Keep up it going

I loved watching you guys taking it in. You should have seen GNR live! I was a teenager in the 80s. Rock was awesome. The energy between Axl and Slash was amazing. Live performances were above anything seen before. They still rock now. The band reunited. Awesome music. Go see them.

"It's So Easy" by GNR is boss, it is one of my fav. songs by these guys.

Yall gotta do a GNR song with a longer solo like November Rain. Slash is a 🐐

Fun fun times in the 80’s.. it was a great time to be in your 20’s ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🔥🔥🔥 Great music !!

Ahh Axel's best years... freaking song gives me chills every time!!!! Great reaction y'all!!🤘🏽🤘🏽

Guns N' Roses in their heyday only lasted a few years (1986 to 1993) ... 'Welcome to the jungle' was W. Axl Rose (lead vocals) talking about arriving in L.A. from his home state of Indiana in the 80's - apparently when he got off the bus, a homeless guy told him, "You're in the jungle, baby! U gonna die!" 🤣 W. Axl Rose arrived in L.A. and hooked up w/ his friend, guitarist Izzy Stradlin to form a band... Living in Hollywood, they eventually teamed up w/ L.A. Guns guitarist Tracii Guns in 1985 and decided to rename the band Guns N' Roses... By 1986, Axl fired Tracii Guns; he wanted Slash to play lead guitar w/ Steven Adler (drums) and Duff McKagan (bass)... Despite their popularity in L.A, Guns N' Roses were trouble - always fighting, always hooked on drugs, always drinking, always partying... but the band was finally signed in '86 to Geffen Records. They released their debut album 'Appetite for destruction' in 1987, and when MTV played 'Welcome to the jungle', Guns N' Roses suddenly went from nobody to the #1 band in the world by 1988... the album has since sold 18 million copies in the US alone. That year, the band released the EP 'GNR Lies'... which sold 2 million copies and showcased guns' acoustic side, but also became controversial after Axl used derogatory language against gays and minorities in a song. Despite their success, Guns were mired in excess... and by 1990, as they started recording new music, Steven Adler (drums) was fired, being too messed up on drugs to play in the studio... Matt Sorum (drums) joined and Guns tracked 2 albums worth of songs that would become 'Use your illusion' Vol. 1 & II, released in 1991 and each selling 7 million copies in the US. Slash also collaborated w/ Michael Jackson, playing on the tracks 'Black or white' and 'Give in to me' and performed w/ M.J. as well. Touring heavily for 'Use your illusion' from 1991, Guns also hired Dizzy Reed (keyboards/ percussion), but Axl's tardiness and the band's infighting caused disastrous incidents, including a riot in St. Louis... Izzy Stradlin (guitar) left the band in late '91 and was replaced on tour by guitarist Gilby Clarke... A stadium tour in 1992 w/ Metallica was fraught w/ problems and resulted in another riot in Montreal after Guns cut their set short (Metallica's James Hetfield had been burned prior in an onstage pyro mishap, which ended their set). At the end of the tour in 1993, Guns released a covers album 'The spaghetti incident?' which marked the band's decline, selling 1 million copies. Guns slowly imploded as the band members found it impossible to work together anymore by 1995... Gilby Clarke, Matt Sorum and Slash were all fired by 1996... Duff McKagan left soon after. Axl tried to put a new Guns N' Roses together and record a new album, but delays and issues would take years... eventually, Axl released 'Chinese democracy' (despite no other original Guns members playing on the album) in 2008. In 2016, Axl Rose finally reconciled w/ Slash & Duff McKagan and announced the reunion tour, dubbed 'Not in this lifetime'... but no new music has been recorded since.

Appetite for Destruction one of the best albums of all time...In my collection 🤘🤘🔥🔥

Ayyy so you spot on guys... For the vids they did up Axl's hair cuz hair bands were the thing, but these dudes were WAY more gritty, way harder, they just stood out. Banger vid guys!

Loved their concerts... loved living and partying in the 70’s & 80’s ... been to the best concerts in the world 🌎 then I had children and they know my music 🎶 and now my grand babies rockin n rollin to my music 🎶

Now we're talking 🤓 Big Hair Music. ‼️‼️💯

The entire album is great from start to finish.

Ya'll gotta do more Guns N Roses!!! Slash's guitar skills with Axls vocals are a perfect blend! The whole Appetite for Destruction album is pure 🔥

they didn't come out of the gate hard,. they came out with a freaking FLAMETHROWER.... it's cool to see them again. we saw this way way back when it was new,....dang i'm o l d.

The whole album. That’s all 🙌🏼

SUCH AN EPIC REACTION!! You guys were N-N-N-N-N-N-NOT expecting this to bang so hard were you?! ……. Welcome to the fucking jungle boys! 😎🔥

“The jungle” to them was LA.. cause some crazy shit was going down in LA back then. But like y’all said it could just be wherever you grew up. I’m glad y’all are reacting to GNR cause they’re awesome!! Much love to y’all, the channel is awesome keep it up!!

53 year old white man from England hear loving you guys reaction I first seen you with your elvis presley reaction I'm a massive elvis fan so looking forward to more elvis from you and plenty more rock groups please 🙏

Y’all are entertaining !, just found your channel a few days ago. I LOVE IT!

Slash is a Guitar God! ❤️❤️

You 4 dudes are extremely respectful. I appreciate your videos! I appreciate that you understand… WE ARE ONE! ❤️🇺🇸

Wow! Brings back memories. I first saw Guns and Roses at the Marquee, London before they became famous. Happy days

Yesssssss!!!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥Axel Rose had one of a kind voice!

Slash is a BEAST and still my crush since I was a kid lol

This is me and my mom’s band besides evanescence. She put me on to this back in the day and when the songs came out on guitar hero and rock band years later damn right I had the whole set. I learned to play guitar and played sweet child of mine for her for Mother’s Day one year. Guns n Roses man. 🤘🏻🌹

Love your channel!

I would love to see the reaction of Rage Against The Machine - Killing In The Name I think you guys would enjoy that, especially video.

Great reaction. I am surprised that I can still move my neck after growing up with these guys and music like this, lmao. My question for y'all is this: Has doing these reaction videos and having learned all of this killer rock changed any of your daily listening habits? Just curious. Axl Rose is one of the all-time greatest singers in the world. Look it up. His vocal range is insane.

👏🏾👏🏾I was high school when this dropped & it changed the game!!!

Great reaction!! Please do more Guns N Roses!! Sweet child o mine, Mr Brownstone, It's so easy, My Michele, November rain, Don't cry, Anything goes, Night train, Knocking on heavens door, Live and let die, Rocket queen, Patience and so many more 😁😁

The band was formed in L.A. although Slash was born in the U.K., he grew up in L.A. and the band got its name by combining two of its original members, singer Axl Rose and guitarist Tracii Guns. Tracii would leave the band to form L.A. Guns Slash would replace Tracii as lead guitarist.

Every Rose Has It's Thorn 🥀🥀🥀

Paradise City, & Sweet Child a mine …..got to listen to those 2.

I rocked out to that song live when they were in Australia last week still awesome!!🔥🤩🙌🏻

Great reaction guys you should take a listen to "Grand Funk Railroad -Inside Looking Out" the live version. You will enjoy it. by the way The song Eye of the Tiger is performed by Survivor. you will like that too.

"Concrete Jungle" is what I've always thought.

The best thing about the song is at the beginning when Axl is getting off the Bus, that screeching noise is actually Axl vocalizing. His voice is incredible.

Good to see you representing the UL-Lafayette Ragin’ Cajuns!

Welcome To The Jungle is actually a true story. Axl Rose (singer) moved to Los Angeles to make his dreams of becoming a Rockstar come true. When he stepped off the bus a homeless man said "you know where you are ? You in the Jungle, baby. You're gonna die.". He instantly knew he was in the right place to become a Rock God. That's facts. It's in Slash's autobiography.

In his prime, Axl had one of the highest octave ranges of any male vocalist!

You guys are crazy, I love it.

You guys are awesome love to hang and laugh make my day thank you.
