      I put Slash on the same level as Santana or Gilmour : people will still remember them in the next century because of their style and melodies/riffs. In the same idea, most of people will forget guitarist like Jeff Beck because of lack of "memorable" songs.

    'Nothing lasts for ever' is the line that I think is the key to this one.
    Hearts can change, love can be transient
    But in the verses that follow I hear beyond that - nothing lasts for ever 'even cold November rain' - I.e. even the difficult times.
    Love, true love . . . Is that love that can hold together in the cold November rain . . . That love that can persist through the times when you're not really sure if you even like the person you've committed yourself to.
    But even these bad times don't last forever. If you can see it through . . . 'This too shall pass'.

But this one here, the solo in front of the church and the one on the piano, when 14 year old me saw that back in the day i was like 'yep, thats what i want to do with my life, i need to become a super cool rock star'. Sadly a hat, a cigarette and a guitar were not enough, turns out you need some talent too.

    It's completely weird to me to see people who do not know the songs that are so iconic from this era of rock or metal. November Rain is to me one of the greatest songs ever composed and made in human history. Slash playing that guitar outside the church is probably one of the biggest reasons so many people pick up the guitar. Probably the coolest guitar playing scene ever.

      I know I'm a year late and all but... I used to feel the same way until I realized there are songs on YT with a billion views that I've never heard of. GnR hits were probably 15 years before these two were even born so they're probably a lot more knowledgeable of stuff in the past 10 years. Not to mention rock probably isn't a genre they grew up with.

    The trilogy is based off of the short story "Without You" by Dell James. To fully understand you must read the story. But it's basically
    DON'T CRY:
    they fail in love but his Rockstar lifestyle, She never trusted him which created a toxic relationship.
    NOVEMBRR RAIN:
    they decide to get married anyway. She ends up committing suicide because they split up.
    ESTRANGED
    is his reflection about what happened and represent the death of his old life and rebirth into a better person.

    I love how you both love all genres of music and how your bringing back many rock classics for listening pleasure. A comment mentioned how Lex feels every note in the songs. My friend invited me with a free ticket to their concert in the peak of their era. I wasn’t a big fan at the time. I remember How everyone was there to see Metallica but Guns and Roses blew them out of the water with their show.
    I’m not a Metallica fan and they performed poorly at this concert.
    When this song started Axl was seated at a white piano that rose up to the stage and he was in a white tuxedo. It’s then I realized how talented this band was. I was in aw with the perfection of their music. Before seeing them in concert I had the impression that they were a radical metal band. It as amazing. Axl had a different outfit changing throughout the show. I feel very lucky to have been able to experience the live music of this era and as part of the scene.

I'm sure there are other amazing songs out there but I can safely say that this was my favorite....EVER! What's your favorite song ever?

    This song always takes me back to my early childhood years. I was exposed to a lot of classics while growing up cause of my older brothers but I remember loving this so much as a 6 year old. As I was growing up my brothers would change their taste in music quite a lot so I remember going from hippy, psychedelic, blues, folk, glam rock, metal to nu metal, grunge, punk, ska, pop punk, rap, hip-hop and so on. Now as a 26 year old adult I literally love every genre of music (even very weird ones) but these classic rock songs give me so much nostalgia.
