MCollins Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 Nice little article and post-discussion from The Guardian on the occasion of the Tottenham concerts. Surprisingly quirky selection in places, and wot no Rocket Queen??! https://www.theguardian.com/music/2022/jun/30/guns-n-roses-their-20-greatest-songs-ranked 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sausagebrain Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 Not a bad list. Of course I don't agree with all of their rankings, but these lists are supposed to spark discussion rather than be 'the definitive' truth'. And at least they got someone to write it who knows that there is more to Guns than AFD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCollins Posted June 30, 2022 Author Share Posted June 30, 2022 Exactly. Rare to get a mainstreamish paper like this in the UK to give a GnR Top 20 and they showed they knew their stuff putting RNDTH, SOYL and My Michelle in the top 20. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice Boy Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 So Fine in the top 20 😄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunner Gilby Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 Pleasantly surprised that Chinese Democracy and Madagascar made the list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I doubt Duff has been described as a "bluesy crooner" before. I like it more than most people but Top 20?? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stress Fracture Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 I don’t mind So Fine either but anyone who thinks it’s better than Rocket Queen shouldn’t be entitled to an opinion. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamillos Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 Yeah, either RQ or Coma should have been there instead of So Fine (or both, if we replace Madagascar as well). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only RiR3 Madagascar is worthy, Coma and RQ should also be in there for sure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CAFC Nick Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 There will never be a time when a top 20 list gets unanimous agreement but I like that several CD songs were in (definitely agree with Madagascar, but would've also included Better and TWAT) and not overlooked with great snobbery like the majority of articles.
