What are you listening to, right now................
-
After watching the Motley Crue movie, i am now reading Duff McKagan's book, and therefore i am also listening to Guns n Roses
Appetite for Destruction fucking rules. In the conversation for greatest debut album ever, and best side 1 track 1 too. I absolutely love the guitar sound and the riffs throughout this album.
Anyway, in an album of standout tracks, this is my favourite.
Probably closely followed by Nightrain

@mariner4life They are doing "Signature Song" for big bands on Hauraki. What do you think was their signature song? It was done by voting and they played 3rd, 2nd and obviously 1st.
I want you to guess before I list the three songs!

Sweet Child of Mine made them, but is one of my least favourites.
3 Paradise City
2 November Rain
1 Sweet Child of MineNot my choices, but my stab at what the vote was.

Not three bad there @mariner4life 2&1 were correct but 3 was Welcome To The Jungle.
I don't understand how Paradise City isn't number 1 let along top three! That also used to be my favourite music video
-
@Hooroo shit, really? Jungle is the best of all the 4 songs we listed, but wasn't sure that people would pick that.
If it was me:
Paradise City
You could be Mine (T2 was massive!)
Junglebut my 3 favourite Guns songs all run together on Appetite: Nightrain, Out to Get Me, Mr Brownstone. Filthy rock and roll!!

I fuckin' love that album.
-
Alot of my favourite bands have a signature song that is either overplayed or quite shit.....
Case in point - Led Zep "Stairway to Heaven" Deep Purple "Smoke on the Water" and Faith no More "Epic"
Each of those groups has in my opinion done countless way better songs than the ones they are most famous for.
-
Monday it was Led Zep
3 Kashmir
2 Stairway to Heaven
1 Immigrant SongIt is so cool having this play at 5 pm when I am driving home.

3 and 1 would be in mine easy!!
Rock and Roll would be the third. -

Could easily add "Whole lotta love" "Black Dog" "Over the hills and far away" "d'yer maker" "Dazed and Confused" "All my love"......
fucken heaps really.

@mariner4life said in What are you listening to, right now................:
@MN5 the Epic thing drives me nuts. It's not even close to the best track on the album it's off. And yet there it is, FNM's only song apparently.
Well you and I are much bigger fans that most to be fair. I don't genuinely hate it as much as the other two which are THE signature songs of those two rock icons.......
-
@mariner4life said in What are you listening to, right now................:
@MN5 to be fair, most people would battle to name another Deep Purple song (I personally love Highway Star, but that's hardly an obscure choice)
As an aside, Use Your Illusion is a bloated mess.
I certainly don't agree with that, "Black Night" "Women from Tokyo" "Speed King" "Hush" "Space Truckin"......every one a staple on rock radio.
Definitely not in the Led Zep stratosphere but they were a fucken massive group.
Richies guitar work in "Highway Star" is absolutely exceptional.

On that album alone I'd go:
War Pigs
Falling to Pieces
The Real Thing -

The Real Thing"Woodpecker from Mars" is a great instrumental and you can't go past "From out of Nowhere"
I'm amazed "The Real Thing" isn't much better known. It is one of my favourite ever rock songs.
