If you have to create an ultimate compilation...

An ultimate Guns N' Roses compilation would need a few numbers from Chinese D as well.

Here's my take on it:

Appetite

Essentials:

Welcome to the Jungle

Sweet Child O' Mine

Paradise City

Rocket Queen

Optionals:

Nightrain

Mr. Brownstone

It's So Easy

Lies

Essentials:

Patience

Optionals:

Used to Love Her

You're Crazy

Illusions

Essentials:

November Rain

Estranged

Civil War

Coma

Optionals:

Don't Cry

You Could Be Mine

Locomotive

Knockin' on Heaven's Door

Live and Let Die

(A lot more too, everyone will have a few personal favorites)

Spaghetti

Essentials:

None

Optionals:

Ain't It Fun

Chinese

Essentials:

There Was A Time

Better

Optionals:

Street of Dreams

This I Love

Madagascar

Catcher in the Rye

Long story short, too many essentials to fit the one CD like you're looking for, and that forces many worthy optional tracks to be left off. A true Ultimate Compilation would have to be a double album minimum.

A double album, i agree !

But i want to do the best song list, 12 songs for an ultimate record !

You can mix songs if you want, the verse of a song and a chorus of an other, a solo, a part of a song etc.....

May be this is a strange request but i would like to use this compilation to make my own album !

And guns is my inspiration !

Most consistently mentioned thus far are:

Welcome to the Jungle

Sweet Child O' Mine

Mr. Brownstone

It's So Easy

Nightrain

Paradise City

Rocket Queen

Patience

Civil War

You Could Be Mine

November Rain

Estranged

Locomotive

Although this is just a small sampling size. I should expect Coma to move into the top 12 with enough votes, and perhaps TWAT as well.

I am always surprised to see "coma" in the greatest hits because even if it's a great song, we can't say it's an hit ?!

This ain't a "greatest hits," it's an "ultimate compilation," which would in fact be a perfect descriptor for the song Coma itself.
