I HAVE TO ADMIT...| Rap Fan Listens To GUNS N’ Roses - Rocket Queen (REACTION!) 

No Auto tune in the 80's, this is pure talent. This album came out in 1987, and it still sounds fresh 31yrs. Later. That's greatness.

it's so nice to see young people discovering GN'R

It’s not only Slash, it’s also Izzy Stradlin on the rhythm guitar. Another amazing guitarist, criminally underrated.

This was recorded in 1986. There was no autotune. This is the man's voice recorded a few times and layered over itself. Axl Rose has one of the greatest voices in rock and roll history.

Appetite for Destruction is the highest selling debut album of all time just saying!

“My Michele” - GN'R The Gunners ARE legends. Any true rocker knows this.

Fun fact: this song contains a special appearance by the drummer’s girlfriend while having a romantic excursion with the lead singer.

I feel truly sorry for anyone who missed out on 80s rock

Everyone has an opinion, in mine, GNR is the best band ever. This album and the two Use Your Illusion albums are three of the best.

Rocket queen is such an underrated song. I think it should’ve got a lot more radio play back in the day.

It’s so sad to see gnr doesn’t get the appreciation it needs now a days. BEST BAND EVER

Actually Rocket Queen was on the "B" side on their album, (If I remember right) so no, people aren't just sending you their "best" songs. Rocket Queen is for us who really appreciate music. I consider Rocket Queen quite possibly their best song. I f-ing LOVE this song! And you're right....that transition is PERFECT, and it's lovely, and ANGRY at the same time.... I don't know....maybe it's just me, but....there's a LOT going on in this song. LOT'S of emotions. An I feel it!

Am a 54 year old man. This band ruled the world when I was a kid. Its awesome to watch you rock out to gnr

You need to listen to “It’s so easy” by guns n Roses it shows axls other voice

Your instincts on this band are 100% valid. Don't listen to the masses. This is one hundred percent of fun and tremendous song. If it doesn't move you, you're dead. Disband, especially in the early years at this time, was gold. There was no auto-tune. There were no real tricks. This is what they sounded like. And, it was glorious. Thank you for reacting to this. I enjoyed it every bit as much as you did and I have heard this song a million times.

Bro Axl Rose has a range that covers nearly 6 octaves... he was declared to have the widest vocal range over that of Mariah Carrey even. He was even surprised by that several years back. No auto tunes in 1987 bro lol. Full on him I've seen him live 3 times and his vocals are just insane!!! Love to watch your reaction bro it reminds me of myself when I first heard this album 33 years ago. Amazing!!!! I voted GNR on that same poll. It was tough with the Beatles and Queen but of my time nobody and I mean "Nobody" struck the nerve that Guns n Roses did with practically everyone... good time!!!

Judging off the look on your face at the time, I'm sure you noticed. The instrumental after the second chorus during Slash's lo-fi solo was audio of Axl Rose and the ex-girlfriend of their drummer having sex in the studio.

"How is he doing his voice like that" it's called talent, it's what is lacking in music the last 2 decades.... keep up the good work

GNR recaptured what it meant to be a 60s and 70s rock n’ roll band. Dangerous, dirty, but also fun, and funky. They found that Goldilocks zone between being young angry kids but also proficient musicians and songwriters.

This is probably the only album where I agree that EVERY song is awesome. Not a single crappy song. Best album (as a whole) ever by any band. This song and Mr. Brownstone are my 2 favorites off this album.

The next "YOU COULD BE MINE" of Guns And Roses

In my experience, a person either loves Guns N’ Roses or hates them. There is no middle ground. When I was a kid they were the most dangerous band in the land.

Drummers name is Steven Adler. GnR will never be the same without him

if you are just wanting every song to be "lit", then you are going to miss the nuances in 80's rock/metal. Think about it, the transition in this song slowed it down, changed the tone & calmed down the drive just to crank it back up. A lot of the great songs aren't going to be "lit" from the 1st note to the end, but they will build and build. Bands like Whitesnake tend to start slow/calm & crank it up by the end. Slow n Easy and Slide it in are examples. Skid Row can blow you away with Monkey Business and make you fall in love with I remember You. The Scorpians can blow your eardrums out with The Zoo while they Rock You like a Hurricane and make you cry with Winds of Change or Still Loving You. There's so much more to 80's rock/metal than being just "lit".

What I still find hilarious is that they taped audio of a girl having sex with Axl to include in one of their songs haaa rock n roll groundbreaking, legends

Steven Adler such a monster on drums!!

Another fun fact, The sex sounds in the background is Axl actually recoding himself having sex with the drummer Steven Adler's GF in the studio because he thought it would add more dynamic to the song. This was one of the many reasons that eventually led to the band splitting with Adler although the main reason was because Adlers drug and alcohol abuse were so bad that he couldn't learn the new songs. Also to answer your question about your poll and why people choose those other bands over GNR, its because those other bands had longer time periods together and made more albums with hits on all of them for the most part. GNR only made 2 albums with all their original members and really the second one called GNR lies wasn't a full album so basically they only made their debut Album with all original members. Now the main core of the band being Axl, Slash l, Duff and Izzy made a couple more albums togethers with the biggest being a double album called Use your Illusion 1 and 2 and those were amazing albums as well which they toured for over 3 years straight promoting those. However by the time the tour was over Izzy had also left the band was replaced so now your down to Axl, Slash and Duff but within 2 to 3 more years Slash and eventually Duff also left due to work on a new Album not making any progress and mostly due to Axl being a perfectionist and wanting to take the music in a different direction than Slash among many other issues they had. It was so bad between Slash and Axl that they didn't even speak to each other from about 1996 to 2016 When they finally buried the hatchet and ultimately reunited with Duff as well and has one of the most successful tours of 2017-2020 until the pandemic hit. If you get a chance watch one of the newer documentaries about the band and their history and it will explain everything more clearly for you. But I believe their history and the fact that they really only made about 5 albums with the most important members of the bands being involved is the main reason people chose those other bands over GNR. Me personally, I would take the music GNR has put out over 99% of the music those other bands out any day. I've never been a big fan of the Beatles, the Stones or Led Zeppelin while they all have a few songs I like. They just dont hit me the same way GNRs music does.

Axl Rose's voice is just something that I have never heard anything even come close to ever again. He's a legend. GNR are legend!

Dude at this point you’re hooked. Get the album get into a relaxed atmosphere. Put your headphones on. Hit play and enjoy the ride.

You gotta listen to Nightrain next!!

This song is a master piece, always been my favorite song. Great lyrics, awesome transitions, magnificent instrumentals

It's nice to see how music unites us, black, white, yellow, rap fans, rock fans, pop fans, blues fans and so on...

3:13 Damn straight. Guns N Roses doesn't "compare" to those legends, they SURPASS those legends.

This is my favorite G n' R song I love to play on drums. Steven Adler was the perfect drummer for Guns. I wish him the best in life. He's been through too much.

Great observation on the transition at the end of the song. In musical terminology, we call it the coda. Knowing that this was going to be the last song on the album, they didn't want to end on the dark sounding note of the early part of this song. They wanted the album to end on a hopeful note, and so they added the coda that you hear. This song is pure fucking magic.

This reaction was so much fun. Loving that a younger generation embracing great rock music.

Axl can just do his voice like very few ever could. He has the record for largest octave range.

This GnR songs are also 🔥: Out ta get me My Michelle Estranged

Can't say how much I love your reactions to the greatest band ever.

I've been listening to this song since it came out. I still have to pause and reflect every time the song ends. Pure greatness.

Also no vocal effects were used on this album. Straight Axl

So proud of you getting axl and slash right at the right times lol Do dont cry and get lit with estranged, night train and mr bownstone.

Been loving these videos by the way. Think anyone who has an open mind can really appreciate and love real rock n roll. Keep doing what you’re doing bro

Do more of the deep cuts like this. Stay away from the overplayed singles. The deep cuts are the truest of what this band was all about.

That vocal effect you heard is called Flanger. It's the effect of playing the audio track twice at the same time but one track is constantly but slightly slowing down and then speeding up. It gives a 'whish'-like effect. Auto tune wasn't invented for popular use on vocals until 1998 on the Cher song Believe. Before then, however, there were devices called Vocoders and Talk Boxes that did similar effects but were more for subtle robotic effects.

So far you’ve listened to all the suggestions, next...Mr. brownstone, Night train, it’s so easy

This whole album changed my life. It was the most obscene thing of the time. I wasn't alive when it came out but still . Amazing album. And yes all that guitar is mostly slash .izzy also.

I subscribed to your channel because I watched your reaction to paradise city. My family doesn’t have the same taste in music I do. It’s amazing to watch someone enjoy the music I grew up with. Keep up the good work!

You need to listen to “Civil War” by Guns an’ Roses. You’ll love it!!!

I feel like you would've liked the live version in Japan where he ad-libs a rap verse. Oh well. This whole album is so fantastic. I still think you should do their video "It's So Easy" because it highlights the debauchery that was GNR in their prime.

Glad you are digging these guys!

To watch this young person love our music from back in the day... makes me feel young again!

LIST OF GUNS N ROSES SONGS YOU NEED TO LISTEN TO: IT'S SO EASY( WITH MUSIC VIDEO) MY MICHELLE DON'T CRY YOU COULD BE MINE KNOCKING ON HEAVENS DOOR MR BROWNSTONE CIVIL WAR GET IN THE RING OUT TO GET ME THINKING ABOUT YOU. Nightrain Estranged ( THERE ARE SO MANY MORE TBH)

It's So Easy, Mr Brownstone, You Could Be Mine, Right Next Door To Hell and Garden Of Eden; those are some other GN'R bangers to check out. Also, I'd love to see ya jumping into lyrics when you're breaking down the songs. Peace!

Great band In my top 5, seeing them again on tour this year.

I love your reactions!

Can you pls do my michelle, mr brownstone or estranged next?

Auto tune didn't exist in 1985

Love it! Such a great, natural reaction to a banger track!

Dude I’ve watch a few of your GnR reactions now and I love how much you enjoy this music. Great seeing people crossing genres and just enjoying good music. Keep it up my friend, lots of love from the UK

Out Ta Get Me - Guns N' Roses

For more G'n'R, I'd suggest "Civil War" and "Mr Brownstone" As far as other bands: Faith No More "Epic" Metallica "Master of Puppets" Bad Brains "I Against I"

He has never been to a concert? Oh boy this needs to change. Someone near this young man, get him to a show

You’re officially my new favourite reactions to watch. Much love from the 6ix 🤘

Mr brownstone by GNR is lit as well. Check that one out.

Beautiful bro! This is one of my favorite song! One of my favorite albums!

I'll say it again, you're such a joy to watch! Keep exploring, there is so much out there to discover!

First timer on your channel... you made my day mate👌😅

Axl Rose is the singer Slash is the lead guitarist. Duff Mckagan is the bassist Izzy stradlin is the rhythm guitarist Steven Adler is the drummer

Mr. Brownstone is worth your time ! 🔥🎧

I just heard you for the first time tonight, I have really enjoyed your reactions to GNR! You're pretty awesome 😁

Don’t stopp making these vidssss mann!!

The whole album is good.

In my opinion GnR is the best band. But unfortunately they broke up before they could put out more masterpieces. They saved the hard Rock genre from dying in the late 80s!

Awesome reaction video!!

I love this guy, what a great character...watching someone experience this song for the first time was brilliant. We’ve all been there mate hearing GNR for the first time is special

This album is still amazing. Can't even imagine how much great music they could have put out if they could get along with Axl

i feel like this guy would be shaking like an epileptic if he heard my 80s rock playlist

Your reaction is awesome. I’ve loved this song for 25 years.

This is the REAL Guns and Roses. The original, magical lineup was short-lived.

I'm 47 and have been a pioneer of blacks listening to metal and rock for 35 years . Absolutely love what you're doing !!!

I started laughing so hard when the mains kicked in. And yes that’s slash. And there was no auto tune back then lmao

Just watched.....luv ya bro. You are a rock n roll headbanger from the heart.

I dig your reactions. I’m really loving seeing the young generation keeping rock/metal alive on RU-vid reactions. 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🔥🔥🔥

Guns N' Roses doesn't belong with those other bands. They belong alone at the top.

Next: "It‘s so easy" ! ! !
