WTF Happened to Axl Rose?

  • As far as rock stars go, they don’t get much bigger than Axl Rose. As the front-man of Guns N’ Roses, he became an instant legend when their debut album, “Appetite for Destruction” was released in 1987. Spawning hits that are still iconic twenty-five years later (with the soundtrack for Thor: Love and Thunder featuring them prominently), including “Welcome to the Jungle,” “Paradise City,” and “Sweet Child of Mine,” the album broke out from the hard rock/heavy metal genre to become one of the biggest selling albums of all time. Throughout the late eighties and early nineties, they were one of the biggest bands in the world, with “Use Your Illusion 1 & 2” also major sellers. Axl Rose was everywhere, especially when the band started doing ballads like “Don’t Cry” and “November Rain.”
    Yet, after the release of their covers album, “The Spaghetti Incident,” Guns N’ Roses started to fall apart, with iconic guitarist Slash and Duff McKagan leaving acrimoniously. Rose would spend most of the next decade working on a follow-up album, “Chinese Democracy,” with an ever-revolving lineup of members, with the album in question a critical and commercial disappointment.
    In the meantime, rumours about Rose’s behaviour and sobriety ran rampant. In this episode of WTF Happened to this Celebrity, we try to separate fact from fiction and celebrate the fact that Rose has since reunited much of the original band and that they still sell out stadiums worldwide.
    What do you think of Guns N’ Roses, and what’s your favorite song from the band? Let us know in the comments!

    Age is what happened. Jesus. Cracks me up when people immortalize celebrities. He's just a regular guy that aged. Like we are all doing. Gained a few pounds. Sang a million hours on stage and in rehearsals. So that takes a toll on the voice, body, mind and soul. Kudos to any of these old rock stars that are still out there. Whether they sound good or not, they are old but have the courage to keep going and open themselves up to criticism.

Acid and every other goody. 4 months out of the year for decades. I'm 59 and a physical wreck. I can't imagine what Axl has put himself through over that first 20 years of GNR. If he's making folks happy, God bless him. He will be in the American song book forever. Let the man do what he loves, for the folks that want to go have a blast. Shit, Alice Cooper is almost 80 and selling out shows. Very devoted fans spanning 3 generations at every show

    I remember moving from Kansas city Missouri to Lafayette Indiana in May of 1991. The first time I was with a group of Locals and one of his songs came on they all started telling me about him. His antics growing up and his issues in school and with the law as a youth. here was a shop, a hole in the wal by the square where you could get things like spiked gloves and rock albums. They had a wall with pictures of him on it. I think the "Axle rose shopped here" angle was the only thing that kept the dorrs open for several years.

    Can't stand when people mock great performers. We all get older and have health issues. He had a very troubled young background and he is a self made artist with a lot of talent. I saw a documentary on him and he has found a "second family" who has his back and loves him. I think he's found a lot of peace now and conquered a lot of demons. He had many bad relationships and I hope now he has found a wonderful woman that he loves and respects. He deserves much happiness. God bless Axl

    You forgot to mention that Axl was (briefly) the lead singer of AC/DC too, when Brian Johnson was forced to quit touring due to hearing problems, Axl himself actually offered to step in and help them finish out the tour.
    Rumour has it that Angus Young made it abundantly clear to Axl that he was not to f around and turn up late to shows etc, and to his credit Axl didn't. He was a consummate professional and showed the utmost respect the legendary band he was stepping into, and actually smashed it as their lead singer! He even stepped aside while on stage to let Angus do his thing, understanding that this was very much Angus' band, and Axl didn't want to steal the limelight from him.

    From mid '80s till the mid 90's, my teenage room was covered wall to wall with Axl posters. Almost every penny I could spare from my already poor allowance, would go into Gn'R albums, posters and various other memorabilia. Nowadays, with everything being so readily and easily available through the net, it is difficult to imagine how hard we had to struggle back then, to buy an LP, or even gather info on our favorite bands. Still a fan, after more than 3 decades, and I always remember those years as the best years of my life. G'nR defined and dominated almost all my adolescence, and Axl will always be an icon for me.

Played 2 songs never before played live. Axl dodnt sound like he did in the 90's but it was my favorite concert ever. Ive seen at least 100 big shows in 30+ years. Slash was on fire. Duff had one of the best base tones live ever in my opinion. Gnr wasnt my favorite band, but it was incredible. They dont need the money. They did it for the fans. They had something to prove and did, big time. People were putting axle down for gis voice. I didnt see one person complain, or more importantly, didnt see one person leave early, even running 2 hrs over. Baltimore got a real treat that night. Ill never forget it!

They have all this trapped anger and are usually people who feel that must always appear nice and understanding etc. At first they look at me like 'I can't do THAT and I CANNOT POSSIBLY SAY THAT!!!!!' Do you want migraines or not? When they allow themselves to go into it (I think we've seen that movie tooooooo/ Why must you find.... another reason to cry?) and even, for a split second, feel that one nerve release...Boom.

There are a few that are his absolute favorite - G&R, Def Leppard and Journey (Steve Perry). He told me, "Mom, I don't care if they're sitting in wheelchairs lip syncing their music, I would be honored to be in their presence." He said it would be cool just to soak in the atmosphere and listen to great music. I couldn't agree with him more.

    He was so handsome before, I had a huge crush on him, but it's okay, people grow old, like what you said, Axl does what Axl wants, he didn't want to take care of his body, so he gained pounds, but as long as he is pleased with himself and not doing anything illegal, he's still cool in my book, too bad he can't go on tours even though this time he seems to really want to.

    He's older! The man is a legend, and no vocalist can touch that range. A tenor who can hold notes 3 octaves higher, for as long as he does, or did, deserves the highest respect. I'm more into the heavier side of metal,but gnr was the first and will always hold a personal section of my heart.

    • @nelliesilvers1210
      @nelliesilvers1210 Год назад

      I don't know about no vocalist reaching his range. Phil Anselmo definitely hit notes that seemed impossible. Especially when it comes to how deep and gruff his voice actually is when he speaks. Medicine Man from CfH has him almost shattering glass and that's only one of many examples. Axl's got a legendary pitch reach but I can't say nobody else can hit it. This Love from VDoP is worth a mention aswell with Phil's range but all of Cowboys From Hell shows more of what Anselmo can do when it comes to extreme range.
      Coma is one of the songs that proves Axl can hit low and high effortlessly but all of AFD would be the best example for that IMO.
      Edit- I have to mention Chris Cornell's phenomenal vocals in Jesus Christ Pose aswell. Absolutely eardrum vibrating pitch👌🏻🤘🏻.
