First ever GNR song you heard was ??

[Dayle1066]

I rmemeber it well.


It was about just over 2 and a half years ago, I was at a party and everyone was watching mtv2 and i walked in at the moment Slash started the SCOM solo, i rmemeber thinking "I need to be that guy" I got all the cd's and delved into the gnr history and half a year after seeing it I took up guitar

[usurper]

Well, the first time I heard G N'R was back when Live Era came out and they were showing WTTJ with the reporters on the tv and shit, you know... I had to say, I was kinda impressed... but I never learned their name till 2002, anyway my mom is an art teacher and this kid wanted to swap me this g n'r emblem *the one with a gun and a rose, the one that you sow on a jacket or something* for a good grade...... I was like ok, sure but he backed out at the last minute, anyway my sister bred me to be a nirvana fan..... eeuuuuggggggghhh  , later on I watched some videos and after a while my mom got me Greatist Hits and I been hooked ever fucking since!

Well my friend played the opening riff of Sweet Child O' Mine and I absolutely loved the song from then on.  So I guess that was the first GN'R song I heard

[Aava]

My Michelle

My best friends older sister was listening to it, LOUD.

[Pryor Murphy]

You Could Be Mine. I heard it in Terminator 2.

[groupie]

the first song i heard from guns n' roses was you could be mine in t2, buti was like 7, and i was mad about the spice girls so i didn't pay much attention. that was 1997 i think. but then in 2000 my friend borrowed my an mp3 cd and it had knovkin' on heaven's door and don't cry on it. i put knockin' on heaven's door on and didn't turn it off for more than a week.
2 weeks after that, my dad bought me the illusion twins and my endless love for guns n' roses begun.
i really looked weird, 10 years old, black nail polish, skull neckleace, guns n' roses t-shirts and blue jeans and black all stars shoes, while all my friends were crazy about britney spears and all the other pop shit.

saw the vid "Patience" when I was around 9 yrs old--thought to myself, "why doesn't he know the words to his own song?" bc he was reading the lyrics off the sheet of paper.  hehe...turns out Axl continued to read his lyrics--i.e. using teleprompters at his concerts 

[Genesis]

Sweet Child O' Mine!  Saw the video and thought: Hmmm, must learn guitar...

[Chandler]
