I'm just wondering about what songs there are, that reference, quote or relate to Gn'R, Axl or any other present/past members.. (without being complete covers or remixes)

I've had a bit of a look around, but can't find any list of these already made, off the top of my head, i'll come up with a few,

firstly, the Against Me: Is Reinventing Axl Rose album, and title track, Read here: OR

Also, on a different level, there's the track by Adrianna Smith, and Ghost in The Graveyard singing Come Find Me, dedicated to Axl Read Interview or

Or then, on a more local level for me!, There's a AFD reference early on in an Hilltop Hoods song (Aus Hip hop!), Lyrics here: or Youtube:

oh, and this SR-71 song, "Axl Rose (Where Did You Go?)" Read wiki: or Youtube:

But, surely there's many, many more, be it blatant name dropping, or cryptic meanings, good songs or bad, can you think of any?, or point me towards a comprehensive list or prior thread if there is one!, Thanks...

There's a song by The Living End called "21st Century" that has the line "...and Axl's mad," but it could be referring to another Axl. In context, it's more likely that it's not about GN'R, but whatever. There's references to a number of famous people, so it's hard to tell which Axel/Axl/Axle he's talking about.

(The bracket on the end of your link makes it not work), but still, thanks, here we go: http://www.6lyrics.com/music/living_end/lyrics/21st_century4.aspx and i found a small discussion about who it might be referring to here:

L7 : just like me (both Axl & Slash)

L7 Just Like Me lyrics

Taime is a rock star

Just like me

Everyone loves him

Just like me

They all think he's punk

Just like me

Smack how he picks it up

So where's your dignity?

faster, faster, faster.......

Well axl is a love god

Just like me

The girls all love him

Just like me

But he's so messed up

Just like me

Doesn't want to give it up

So where's your dignity?

Guns and, guns and, guns and

Guns and, guns and, guns and

Well vixen are love gods

Just like me

Pretty pretty sex things

Just like me

Dressed up and to pay to play

I couldn't live that way

Hair spray and bustier

Can't fool me

Vixen, vixen, vixen

Vixen, vixen, vixen

Slash is a love god

I know it's hard to believe

Boys all dig him

But boys are easy to please

You've got the bimbos swinging

Like monkeys in the trees

You've got limos and money

So where's your dignity?

Jason Mraz : The Dynamo of Volition

Good God

Bring 'em back again

Gimme gimme that high ten

You're the best definition of good intention.

I do not answer the call if

I do not know who is calling

I guess the whole point of it all is

That we never know really

I'm tryin' to keep with the Joneses

While waiting for Guns N' the Roses

To finish what we all suppose is

Gonna be the shit so sue me

Susanne by Weezer:

Susanne, you're all that I wanted of a girl

You're all that I need in the world

I'm your child

Make me blush, drive me wild

Susanne, you're all that I wanted

When I met you I was all alone

Cold and hungry cryin' on the phone

You baked me brownies and said "don't you cry"

And gave me the coat off your back

Susanne, you're all that I wanted of a girl

You're all that I need in the world

I'm your child

Make me blush, drive me wild

Susanne, you're all that I wanted

Even Izzy, Slash and Axl Rose

When I call you put them all on hold

And say to me that you'd do anything

and all I can do is say that

I haven't much I can give you in return

Only my heart and a promise not to turn

But I'll sing to you every day and every night

Susanne, I'm your man

Susanne, you're all that I wanted of a girl

You're all that I need in the world

I'm your child

Make me blush, drive me wild

Susanne, you're all that I wanted

Of a girl

YEAH!

My style is triple, quadruple, damage for mc's

I make 'em huff 'n puff like mufflers for meineke

Human exhaust, you wanna get lost ?

Rhymes plus exxon ride brains like alain prost

Mc clowns, I blaze towns

I dragwheel skulls, leave with speed 'n dust cloud

All you monkeys, donkeys, alternative junkies

I'm strictly t-rex, 'n my rap just crunch, see

The jive 'n babble, throw heavy scrabble

Sparkles plus the bubbles plus the flavor like snapple

All you socalled rebels heavy metal cattle

Some horses got force but I simply tame with saddle

Hunt a stunt like 'red october', ain't crossin' over

Oops ! scud scrub ? patriot makes pulver

The music hits, fierce as it is

Check the brothers in the crowd that 'hiss'

Good grief

Industry check to mac, and wanna know me

I kick against control untamed like wild pony

Stay lonely like tony, attract like coney island

My style man, don't need no master, flasher

Test a prankster gangster like a gatt much faster

Get the band aid, the kid front hard knock

I sport more techniques confidential than fort knox

Sort of tool - glock - automatic on the static

Synthetic - plastic ?- you stay ready with the cascet

I throw a style, now a freak wants to test it

It's crazy mega fab, makes your hottie cher

I crush mc jaws who oughtta be chandelier

And drop the ltter - on the quitter

The survival-rival gets stranger

Much fitter

Worldwide you get served like stinky cheese

More force than a sexual intercourse

So mc's please !

Brothers amaze - keep 'em all in a daze

With the wild funk blaze

Good grief

One time for your mind now, as I have to climb now

Step by step now, where your rap now

I kick the flavor like a wes craven

People under my stairs wanna steal like raven

Black with breaks wanna croak when spoken to

Some shitty nonsense beat, you gotta be jokin' too

The rhyme enforcer, rhythm corsair

Hit the core with force, well of course oh !

Don't give me that lip lip

Like he thought that he could

I frown on bullshit like my name's clint eastwood

You come with fronts, stunts 'n poses

I welcome you to my jungle

Like my name was guns 'n roses

I blast the sound, you check the sound

You gotz to be down, and be like charlie brown

Saying good grief

Urban Dance Squad - Good Grief
