I read on A4D recently, a band being mentioned which was basically the sound they wanted for Appetite. I had never heard the band before but gave it a listen. And now I can't remember its name.

Boston?

In simplest terms, she dated him very briefly. I heard she had a dream to fuck him since she was a teen, so it was fulfilling that fantasy for her. That’s just what I heard recently...

I remember Behaviour by the Pet Shop Boys coming up but I don’t know how it managed to influence November Rain, as claimed below, when it came out in late 1990.

In what is probably the most surprising influence of the Pet Shop Boys on another artist, Axl Rose—lead singer of this notorious hard-rock group of the late eighties and early nineties—is an avowed PSB fan who has affirmed that his band's big 1991 hit "November Rain" (from the album Use Your Illusion I) was influenced by the Boys' "My October Symphony" and "Being Boring."

Years and years ago Axl tweeted a line from one of my favorite Roger Waters songs "Watchung TV". 

No context, no follow up, just one line from the song. So I have to assume he and I share a like for the album Amused To Death.

Very interesting. I'll have to seek out that October Symphony when I have the time.

It might be the case that whilst November Rain had long since been written at that point, those PSB songs might have had an influence on the final arrangement and production.
