The official "What's your favorite GN'R track?" thread

Estranged!
since i first heard this song it's my favourite song, not only favourite gnr-song. 

[kakau]

Hard choice... Estranged

[JonnyV]

I love all of the Gn'R songs, my personal favourite has to be "Coma". I never used to like it, but its an awesome song, its got the beat to it that gets you going, awesome lyrics [a little on the angry/dressing side].  The song starts off with the heart beat, everything goes into play and its a head bopper, lol.  But just like "you could be mine" i love the ending cuz Axle just goes all out.  This song is when inside my house feeling miserable, "The Garden" & "Don't damn me" gets me goin.  "Dust in the wind" is an awesome song, and no matter how many times anyone says "My world" is crap, all anyone has to remember is that there is no "Crappy" Gn'R songs, some song are just better than the other.


"but, it is writen if the evil spirit arms the tiger with claws, brahman provided wings for the dove, thus spake the super guru, did you hear that?"

[N.I.B]

I'll do a top 5 since I can't norrow it down.

5. Welcome to the Jungle
4. Sweet Child O' Mine
3. Rocket Queen
2. Paradice City
1. Nightrain

[Tied-Up]

My top 3:

1.  Coma
2.  Rocket Queen
3.  Pretty Tied Up

In my opinion, Coma is the best song ever, period.  It's just so fucking awesome.  Even better than Stairway to Heaven.   

[StoneTempleRoses]

Estranged and breakdown.

Ok, thanks for the info.




It would be nice if you could explain why you picked the songs you did in your top three. Instead of just lists of songs, we'd understand why those songs are your favorites.

November Rain is my favorite all time GNR song.

[Leah_RocketQueen]

i have a few favourites

dont cry, because no matter how much of a shitty mood im in, it almost always makes me feel sumwhat better. the video kinda too, like, seeing axl kill himself makes me sad, but then i think and realize my life aint so bad afterall

coma, just because the lyrics are so meanigful, i mean it is so well written, about depression, then anger, it is just awesome

so fine because the versus of the song are so pretty, it just sounds so nice and it is super easy to sing along to, which i like

i really like dont damn me too, its kinda about speakin ur mind and saying like, u can say whatever u want, dont let people stop what u wanna say. and im kinda like dat too, lol, i always speak my mind, dats probably y alotta people dont like me, lol


there are so many more songs. i could probably name every song and a reason y i like it, but that would be way to long, and no one would read what i said anyways lol, so ya, those r probably my very favourites, but i luv em all!!

1.  Coma - because it is the best song ever produced.  (My opinion, of course) Why?  Because: It completely rocks.  Musically, it can stand up to any other song out there, and surpass most of them.  It has an intense sound.  The lyrics are profound, and Axl handles the vocals with the passion the music and the lyrics deserve.  It's a song that I can listen to over and over again, and get goosebumps every time I hear it. 
2.  Rocket Queen - because it has an awesome sound, it is one of their very best sounding songs live.  It has a very sexy groove to it. 
3.  Pretty Tied Up - Again, I love the sound of this song.  Very sexy groove.  I love Axl's voice in this song.  I love the layers to the vocal tracks.  I think that this song reveals a lot of Axl's amazing vocal talent.   

I also have a new favorite to add to the list, because I finally managed to get it downloaded. 

Chinese Democracy - I have been playing this song over and over again since I downloaded it.  I have heard many people comment that Axl's voice sucks live, but in the particular recording that I downloaded, this song, he is awesome vocally.  I love the beat to this song.  Soooooo cool.

Again, one can only narrow it down.My fave top 5 gnr rock n roll tracks are
5}Garden of Eden
4}Dont Damn me
3}Rocket Queen
2}Coma
1}Paradise City.

Not gnr material but Live and Let Die is one of the best covers of all time-Axl just lets rip!

[zuppie]

Without a doubt, Don't Damn Me - great music, great lyrics, and a fantastically angry delivery ... just what I needed when I was 15

New song to add to this list:

The Garden... it isn't new, but I just got the Use Your Delusions cd which is the studio demo before Use Your Illusion.  I love the Garden on this cd... it has Axl doing the vocals that Alice Cooper does on Use Your Illusion.  Awesome.

Estranged or The Blues

[mr self destruct]

For many many years... Estranged.

But I'm really enjoying The Blues also. Maybe it will get the top post on my list when I hear the studio version.

[The New Fiona Apple]

At the current time, it is The Blues.

What a unbelievable solo by Robin of all people!

[thelostrose]

I simply love Locomotive !
Listen to the lyrics on that one, man they are deep, and great.. Some of Slash's finest guitarwork as well...
