Title: GNR - 10,000,000 Plays
Post by: freedom78 on July 14, 2007, 11:22:53 PM
On Last.fm, GNR has, in the past day or two, reached the point of having their songs played 10,000,000 times, which is fairly impressive considering how short a lifespan that last.fm has had so far.

http://www.last.fm/music/Guns+N'+Roses

To put this in context, here are some other notable bands' playcounts.

The Greats:
The Beatles - 48,135,495
Pink Floyd - 27,994,402
Led Zeppelin - 17,088,337
Iron Maiden - 16,628,650
Queen - 15,068,185
The Rolling Stones - 10,342,333
Jimi Hendrix (w/ and w/out The Experience) - about 9.5 million
The Who - 7,438,740
Black Sabbath - 6,473,922
Aerosmith - 5,922,716
Deep Purple - 3,950,224

Their Contemporaries and Similar Artists:
Metallica - 26,103,012
Suck-vana - 20,265,315
AC/DC - 9,375,231
Bon Jovi - 4,730,242
Van Halen - 3,089,020
Motley Crue - 2,241,956
Skid Row - 1,003,037
L.A. Guns - 163,704 (keep that one in mind next time Traci Guns talks about how much better GNR would have been with him on guitar  :rofl:)

Of course, playcounts for all the trendy new bands are way up there, too, but that hardly matters.  Once they fade away, GNR will pass 'em.

Not quite so pointless as your comment.  : ok:

Just trying to post some info.  If you don't care, how about just keeping your mouth shut?

no need to be rude, i was picking up on your last comment. 10 million plays doesn't mean much if theres a lot of bands that have reached that mark, it also means even less if some of those bands are shitty ones.
