The Holographic Universe Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 I personally have some connection to every song GNR has released. There is not a single song that I don't like. Most of this has to do with Axl being my favorite artist and his expression as an artist. I'm curious how many other people on this forum feel a connection to the entire catalogue. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimmyPage Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 I like most Guns N' Roses songs....but ALL of them? I mean, this is a band that has songs like My World, Shotgun Blues, Get In The Ring, Shacklers Revenge, Anything Goes, If The World and Street Of Dreams. If you like every single song they've ever produced then more power to you, but they have had their fair share of fillers of the years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-W.A.R- Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 (edited) nah i can't say i love every song i do pretty much like all of the first four records (AFD, Lies, UYI's) and can play them front to back without skipping (except My World which you don't technically have to skip just "accidentally" cut the radio off ) Edited July 22, 2016 by -W.A.R- 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ludurigan Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 i like every guns n roses song i love most of them and i consider some of them to be the best songs ever written i actually love even every cover song they played from 1985-1991 and i consider pretty much every cover they played from 1985-1991 to be better than the original thats how much i like this band after izzy left, i stopped enjoying it so much -- there was some nice stuff (specially spaghetti and the live covers from 1992-1993 tour) but not much more than that i am waiting ever since for GNR to be back and i have no idea if it will ever happen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

liers Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 I do. The best part about GnR is the diversity. You can have a song as simple and stripped down as OIAM, patience, or you're crazy, to a song that's very technical and complex like OMG, Shacklers, to straight toward rockers like WTTJ, UCBM, and ballads like NR and estranged. Axl is my favorite artist. I've supported all lineups of GnR and I've liked every album they've put out. CD is my favorite album by any band, UYI2 is a close second.

I've been listening to Guns N' Roses since 1989 and those songs still haven't grown on me. Edited July 22, 2016 by JimmyPage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alfierose Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 Some of the covers I'm not fussed over, Since I Don't Have You is one I really dislike - the vocals really grate on me for reasons I can't quite explain. I pretty much like everything on AFD, Anything Goes is probably the weakest for me but nothing I can't listen to if in the right mood. Same with UYI's (except the obligatory My World) but with the caveat that not all UYI songs were created equal. Lies has nothing I dislike but doesn't contain any favourites (although I would say OIAM is up there with some of the best musical composition they've done, something which sadly is overlooked because of the controversy) On CD I'm a bit meh about Scraped, Riad and ITW.

Eric Cantona Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 I love every song. My World is so shitty that I love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stress Fracture Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 Musically, there's not really anything I would mind them performing live today. Lyrically, there are issues, OIAM being the obvious one. Back off Bitch might be a bit awkward too. Anything Goes will also be a bit cringeworthy if they do AFD30 shows. But then you have It's So Easy as a set staple with Melissa onstage, so maybe not. And then there's Cornshucker... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Słash Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 Well there are many songs from the illusion albums which I don't like, somehow I can't relate to the music and the lyrics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZoSoRose Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 Only 2 officially released songs I actively dislike, My World (although the laugh factor is worth it's existence) and Shotgun Blues I also think Silkworms is awful, but that was thankfully never put out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nikki_Sixx Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 I do. I like every single second of GNR music. I like some more than others. There is nothing I dislike in the GNR catalogue. I even like every song on Axl's solo album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom-Ass Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 I like every song Guns N' Roses until Sympathy came out. That was the first song recorded under the Gn'R name I didn't like and I have liked one since. CD is not and will never be a GnR album to me so their catalog is still pretty damn near perfect I even like My World for what it was. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace Nova Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 I like most of their songs. That being said, there's a difference between "liking" and getting up in the middle of my living room, jamming out and dancing around to a song too....which I would do to about a dozen of their songs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@xlRose Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 from the current tour the only one that i dislike is KOHD. I dont like this version and it's a cover hope they should replace it, the rest is perfect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Modano09 Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 I can/do listen to everything except My World. Lies doesn't really do that much for me these days either. When I'm really into a band I like every song to some degree, mostly because I play them all so much I grow to like everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jakey Styley Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 GNR is the only band whose entire catalogue, save for a couple songs (Anything Goes and KOHD), I would be happy to listen to right now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Underhardy Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 I love every single song and have all of them on my iTunes, including oh my god, crash diet and other unreleased stuff, besides patience off of live era, instead I have the Argentina 1993 version... So yes I listen to every song all the time 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
