How Guns N' Roses Saved My Life
let me tell you guys a story... and sorry for the spelling mistakes
a few years back, i was a chav, i was a guy who destroyed classes, set of fire alarms, stole teachers phones and laughed at people falling over *mind you i still laugh at people falling over* anyway there was a time when coming after school i was very depressed, i found out like nobody liked me n shit, i was just their sheep to help their path on destruction, just felt lonely, i honestly felt like my future was a clear road that led nowhere, then i couldnt get any sleep, i put on the tv in my room and i happended to go pass The Hits so i figured id llisten to some rap n shit, then i saw axl, Sweet child video, the guitar wasnt touching me since i was a chav then but it was his dance, his dance touched me, the way he moved and screeched the notes just before the solo MOVED me. i honestly felt wierd, and i also thought he looked like Donna from That 70s show, then i noticed the name " Guns N Roses - Sweet Child O Mine" at the end, then i took a download of it and listened to the verse and the chorus, then the Riff hit me, felt powerful, i felt like i was a new person. I then went on to find that they were the masterminds behind Welcome to the jungle and Knockin on heavens door, as EVERYONE has heard them nor Chav or OAP. i downloaded EVERY SINGLE song by gnr and put it on my ipod, i then started hanging out with the non chavs, and 2 years on, I am now popular with the girls, get invited to partys, now im in a band and im respected, the chavs hate me now lol but who gives a****? then i reseearched Guns and found out they only had 3 albums that really mattered, they were UYI 1 & 2, and Appetite, the others kinda suck for me, then i thought Chinese Democracy was cancelled or something, then i found this forum , then i joined the truck for the wait of CD and i still am, so Guns N Roses saved my life, if it wasnt for them, especially axl, i wouldve commited suicide as they helped me find who i was, i wasnt a chav, IM A ****ING NATURAL ROCKER, and since the gap between them years, Sweet child has and always will be My favourite song of all time, i still listen to it 24/7. I will stick with guns n roses for the rest of my life, People are not true fans if they just like the music, GNR are more than music to me, They are what i was looking for to give me that step forward in life and for that I thank You Guns N Roses. |

Lies and The Spaghetti Incident? are bloody good albums!
Lies has Reckless Life (which should appeal to you!) Move To The City, Patience and an accoustic version of You're Crazy. T.S.I? has lots of good punky covers on it and is bloody brilliant. Sure they are not as good as Appetite..... and the Illusions but don't sell them short. Listen to them a few more times, give them a chance. I agree though, GNR's were/are nothing short of brilliance and I bow down to Axl - the man is a genius, but a warped one! |

I was anticipating reading about how Slash, Axl and Izzy rushed in and dragged you out of a burning building or something. Or perhaps that you had a rare blood-type that the only known match for was Duff Mckagan and he agreed to be a donor. I'm glad they cheered you up though, and one less chav on the streets is one less to worry about.

That's great to hear, you might want to check out some other bands from that era, such as Motley Crue and LA Guns. Great stuff!
