I just wanted to know what people's favorite music videos are.
I would have to say You Could Be Mine or November Rain. It's hard for me to decide. Sorry if this was already posted.

Big budget - Estranged
Low budget - Garden of Eden (cracks me up watching Dizzy and teddy dancing in the background)

You Could Be Mine is my favourite. I know its mostly T2 footage but the live footage is the best! I love Duffs crowd surfing, as well as the 'decibel overload' and the 'waste of ammo' ending, brilliant!
WTTJ is also cool, when Axl gets off the bus its very symbolic, sort of like 'I've arrived world, better look out!'. Also, when Slash is outside the TV shop drinking out of a paper bag, its very cool. Not to mention Axl's hair!!

I love every Guns N' Roses video, but I think my favourite would have to be "November Rain". Short of Michael Jackson, I've never seen such an epic video with such an intricate plotline, not to mention a great song. But GN'R are in a league of their own - NR remains, to this day, my favourite music video. Actually, I only saw it for the first time like two years ago. But that was an important thing, because it was the video, and that song, that got me to buy a Guns N' Roses album in the first place. I mean, I'd heard "Sweet Child O' Mine" (which is my favourite GN'R song), but somehow at that time, "November Rain" just spoke to me somehow. It was such a beautiful song that I went out as soon as I had enough money to buy
Use Your Illusion I
, which began my love affair with Guns N' Roses.
Anyway, besides that, the video just has so many parts of it that I love. I love Slash's guitar solo in the desert (although that was ruined for me recently when someone pointed out to me that the electric guitar wasn't plugged in), I love Axl's piano playing with the symphony (he looks a lot like Elton John there). Axl's acting is pretty good, considering that it's a music video and he's playing himself. The swallowing the pills to get to sleep, the happiness at the wedding (although I've never seen as much tongue at a wedding kiss as between Axl and Stephanie there), the sadness at the funeral, and having the rain wash away his tears at the end.
But I think my favourite parts of the video are the ones where you see the group together, like at the wedding where Slash and Duff find Axl's ring, and in the bar where they're smoking and drinking and having a good time. They just seem like a bunch of old friends, like a band of people you knew from around town. It all stands in sharp contrast to the group's subsequent messy breakup and Axl's transformation into General Rose, all-powerful dictator of the band with no tolerance for the opposition within the band. In "November Rain", we see the original Guns N' Roses as a close group of friends, which feels like an intimate glimpse behind their rock star personas.
Beautiful video. [beer]

It's hard to decide. But I like "Sweet Child O Mine" the best. I like the simplicity of it. And they all look great in that video. [love] "Paradise City" is cool too.

Not really...if it's GN'R, it's gotta be great! [ok]
I don't really like Axl's look in the "Paradise City" video with the all-white outfit and the lack of a bandana, and I don't like his hair tied back in the "Yesterdays" video. And the "You Could Be Mine" video has a little too much T2 footage, and not enough is made of Arnold hunting down the band. But aside from that, I love 'em all!

Estranged cos well it's just a classic so many memorable scenes Slash emerging from the water, Axl and the Dolphins it's class, but actually so is Don't Cry and You Could Be Mine, it's a 3 way tie for me

I would have to say that the best Axl Rose dance I've ever seen is in the Sweet Child of Mine video. I also love the beginning where Slash plugs in the guitar and begins playing. However, the best music video I've ever seen is November Rain. The best part is when Slash gets up on the piano and plays the end of that song (which is probably one of the best guitar solos ever written). One thing does kind of confuse me though,why one guy jumps on the cake. As if cake is any better for his clothes than rain?? Estranged is another awesome music video, especially when Slash is playing in the middle of the sidewalk and everyone is just walking past him. Slash coming out of the water is just classic. Words can't describe it. However if they could, i would use: incredible, awesome, unbelievable, or amazing.
Yeah, slash cumin frm da water is mint!
Who is dat guy who jumps into the cake anyway?!
Slash on paradise city vid is cool! {as usual}
Slash luks lush on there!
Estranged with Duff ridin the boat n' Axl with the dolphins {mmmmm}
Izzy is cool on SCOM with the dog, n' wen he moves swiftly with he GeeTar!
Really GNR just simply kick-ass!
I love all the Vids!

Does anyone know if Izzy had a girlfriend when SCOM was shooted?
Maybe he didn't, and that's why he hugs his dog when Axl hugs Erin and Duff hugs his wife (not sure about wife or girlfriend).
And Izzy's "jumpin around playing guitar in WTTJ is awsome. And when he waves his arm in SCOM just before Axl does it.

November Rain out of the ones I've seen, I live in the UK and we only get chance to see a few videos, for instance the video for Estranged is never on TV. Also HMV is not stockin the makin of that video any more so I might never see it unless I can download it!
