Don't Cry, You Could Be Mine and/or Sweet Child O' Mine.
November Rain is good too.
Difficult choice.

Welcome to the Jungle, Cry, or ultimately Paradise City. Brilliant song!
Love November Rain as well though.

November Rain - gives me the tingles just thinking of it.

Best riff has to be Sweet Child of Mine though.

My top 3 GnR songs:

1. Paradise City
2. November Rain
3. Welcome To The Jungle

New album from them later this year might have some classics on it. 'Madagasgar' from it is excellent.

It's not Guns N Roses though. I'm more interested in the band Slash and Co. are putting together. Although it's looking more and more like Slash's Snakepit the 2nd.

Questionable lyrics I know - but 'One in a Million' is still a great song

There are simply too many! GREAT band!

I'm going through a "It's so easy" craze at the moment!

There are so many good GnR songs.

If I had to pick one it would be Sweet Child O' Mine

It is still Guns N Roses but Axl is the only original band member. He has brought in some talented musicians to reform the band and judging from the recent gig at Docklands Arena a few months back it should be good.
Slash and his new band have spent ages trying to find a new lead singer to work with and its dragging on too long.

One thing about both these bands is that they have lost the desire to conquer the world, and take far too long sorting things out. When GnR first came on the scene they were hungry for success and pumped with attitude (and whatever else) and had a raw sound that made Appetite For Destruction the classic it was.

They've spent no time at all compared to the amount of time Axl is taking to get Chinese Democracy out.

To me, it's not Guns N Roses. This guy "Buckethead", plays like Stevie Vai, which is not a good thing imo... I like the fact he plays with a KFC bucket on his head, but the whole nun-chucka's and dancing thing is bloody awful.

The bluesy rock sound will be gone, and Axl's voice sounded pathetic at the MTV Awards, on WTTJ.

Agree with you on this. He looked ridiculous running backwards and forwards across the stage, trying to sing whilst out of breath. I will reserve judgement till the new material comes out from both camps but I would be very suprised if it could even get near to Appetite For Destruction in terms of quality.

I think that Slash and Axl is a musical partnership that neither band will emulate, no matter who they bring in. I can't ever see them working together again though. It would be like the embarrassing Van Halen reunion in the late 90s.

My fav G N'R songs are Dead Horse and Coma. I totally agree about G N' R. I think Axel should really call it a day.

I think Slash is muchh better doing his solo thing. I have got his second album Ain't Life Grand and it's great especially the song Serial Killer.

I loved all of the tracks on Appetite For Destruction, but I think that Nightrain has to be my favourite. Pure rock'n'roll, in my humble opinion.
