The band name was formed due to an amalgamation of two bands. Axl Rose’s band, Hollywood Rose, combined with Tracii Gun’s band, L.A. Guns, and hence formed the name of the new band Guns N Roses.
Axl Rose was so broke before joining the band Guns N Roses that he joined a UCLA medical study where he had to smoke cigarettes and for this he was paid $8.
The small apartment in which the band lived was called Hell House because they practiced all manners of sins there like drugs, girls, alcohol etc.

Sweet Child O’ Mine
Length: 5:54
Release: 1987
Opening Lyrics:
Reminds me of childhood memories
Where everything was as fresh as the bright blue sky
Now and then when I see her face
She takes me away to that special place
And if I stare too long, I’d probably break down and cry
Sweet child o’ mine
Whoa, oh, oh, oh
Sweet love of mine
As if they thought of rain
I’d hate to look into those eyes and see an ounce of pain
Her hair reminds me of a warm safe place
Where as a child I’d hide
And pray for the thunder and the rain to quietly pass me by
Welcome To The Jungle
Length: 4:32
Release: 1987
Opening Lyrics:
We got everything you want honey, we know the names
We are the people that can find whatever you may need
If you got the money, honey, we got your disease
Watch it bring you to your sha-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n knees, knees
Mwah, I, I wanna watch you bleed
If you want it you’re gonna bleed but it’s the price to pay
And you’re a very sexy girl who’s very hard to please
You can taste the bright lights but you won’t get there for free
In the jungle, welcome to the jungle
Feel my, my, my, my serpentine
Ooh, ah, I want to hear you scream
Paradise City
Length: 6:45
Release: 1987
Opening Lyrics:
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Take me home (oh, won’t you please take me home)
Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Take me home (oh, won’t you please take me home)
I’m a hard case that’s tough to beat
I’m your charity case so buy me something to eat
I’ll pay you at another time
Take it to the end of the line
Ya gotta keep pushin’ for the fortune and fame
You know it’s all a gamble when it’s just a game
Ya treat it like a capital crime
Everybody’s doin’ the time
November Rain
Length: 3:56
Release: 1991
Opening Lyrics:
I can see a love restrained
But darlin’ when I hold you
Don’t you know I feel the same?
And we both know hearts can change
And it’s hard to hold a candle
In the cold November rain
Just tryin’ to kill the pain, ooh yeah
Love is always coming, love is always going
No one’s really sure who’s lettin’ go today
Walking away
Knockin’ On Heaven’s Door
Length: 5:36
Release: 1990
Opening Lyrics:
I can’t use it anymore
It’s getting dark too dark to see
Feels like I’m knockin’ on heaven’s door
Knock-knock-knockin’ on heaven’s door
Knock-knock-knockin’ on heaven’s door
Knock-knock-knockin’ on heaven’s door, eh yeah
I can’t shoot them anymore
That cold black cloud is comin’ down
Feels like I’m knockin’ on heaven’s door
Knock-knock-knockin’ on heaven’s door
