Notice how the church was full during the wedding and almost empty during the funeral? Just goes to show you that most people are with you when things are going well and leave you when things aren't going well. Another great reaction.
Omg stop it. Plenty of great rock bands out there these days that write their own music, just like there were plenty of pop performers in the 80s and 90s who had songs written for them.
@@NoctemAeternusMusicomg stop it. He said “unlike many singers nowadays,” which is correct. Current mainstream music is almost solely written by teams of writers and producers.

November Rain is the second song in an unofficial trilogy of Guns N' Roses ballads. The first is "Don't Cry" and the third is "Estranged". Nobody actually died in real life, but the stories of the songs/videos symbolize certain relationships in Axl's life ending. The songs beg the question(s), "what now...where do we go from here?" All highly recommended, hard to pick a favorite!
@@kerenolivero7097 That's why I said "unofficial trilogy". The videos were based on a short story by Axl's friend Del James called "Without You", but Del got the inspiration for the story in the first place when Axl called him up in the middle of the night venting to Del about his doomed marriage. Everyone thinks of the songs themselves as a trilogy now because it's impossible not to think of them that way after you've seen and understood the videos. Plus, they are the power ballads of the Use Your Illusion albums and very different from the other songs on that double album.
This is a phenomenal song by a fantastic group, the first time this video was on RUclips, it reached 2 billion views, and then was removed for some reason, then was reuploaded, and doing brilliantly again.
This isn't a true story but the bride is Stephanie Seymour, an ex-girlfriend of Axl Rose (the singer) and they had a problematic relationship. the Slash solo outside the church is one of the most iconic scene in the rock history and this videoclip was considered one of the best ever made and you can see it by the huge production. also, this song is a part of a song-trilogy: 1) Don't Cry 2) November Rain 3) Estranged I highly suggest you to react to the other two, they are also beautiful song! Loved your reaction, it's exactly what we felt us kids back in those days. 🙂
I can explain this video... It's all just a nightmare. It's why the tiny chapel turns into a massive cathedral once he goes inside. Recall at the beginning that Axl is struggling to sleep, and he takes some type of medication before lying down. The reason we don't see what happens to the bride is because it doesn't matter how she dies. It's a dream- things don't make sense in dreams; they jump from scene to scene without events ever being fully disclosed to us. It illustrates Axl's innate defense mechanism to never allow himself to completely love a woman because he believes he'll ultimately end up being the source of her demise. That's why the chorus is, "Don't you think that you need somebody? Everybody needs somebody." His subconscious is warning his sleeping mind that he'll only end up alone if he continues obeying his defense mechanism to never fully open himself out of fear of rejection, and potential loss.
What can you say when you combine a kickass band, an orchestra and the song. Throw in an epic 46 second guitar 🎸 solo by the one and only Slash and the music video, well ya got a beautiful harmony and spectacular piece of History in the making.
The church at first is huge in an urban area , whem Slash comes out of it during his solo's the Church is tiny and in a desolate area. Also the refrain of the song talks about needing time alone but the second refrain is about needing someone.
I typically enjoy the music you review, and love this one. Doesn't hurt that you're very attractive. I also love that you dont pause every two minutes to give a 10 minute explanation of what you think the song is about without having listened to the complete song. Keep up the great work. I look forward to seeing more.
This music video reportedly cost $1.5 Million to produce... Something that will likely never happen nowadays, given how low record sales are in 2024. Axl Rose of Guns N' Roses demanded a huge budget for the music video and featured his then-girlfriend supermodel Stephanie Seymour in it... He demanded the same for the sequel music video for 'November rain' - the single 'Estranged'... which concluded the music video trilogy that started w/ the Guns N' Roses single "Don't cry".
This is the second of a trilogy of videos, and is preceded by "Don't Cry" and followed by "Estranged" and is based on a short story, "Without You" by Del James. That's Axl playing the piano, and his "wife" is Stephanie Seymour, whom he was dating at the time. If you liked this definitely check out the other two, especially "Estranged" which is a more complicated song and video and shows the aftermath of this video.
BTW the coffin with the mirror is used to conceal gunshots wounds to the heads. Because some times when people commit suicice their blow half their head away.
I have no idea who this woman is. But, she is one of the best looking women on youtube. She possesses a smile that can launch ships. Simply fantastic example of flawless.
Music and video went hand in hand during the 80s and 90s… (perhaps longer, but I was busy). Good times. GnR grabbed the zeitgeist of the late 80s early 90s. The bridge between eighties hairbands and Grunge. If you care to take a dare and see them at their wildest, hungriest (in video) form, check out their official video for “It’s So Easy”.
Check out the Live in Tokyo, GNR were so good live during that time, the intro is a 5 minute piano play by Axl, wicked. And live they had absolutely wonderful female backing singers
That video was one of the most expensive videos made at the time costing $1.5 million. There is some truth to that song, especially the lyric “when even friends seem out to harm you“ too much to explain, but you can check it out. Absolutely love your reaction!!❤ :-)
Hi you beautiful Maggie. In fact no one in this band knew that Axl actually could play a piano so it was surprise to them too. Although usually most of the players start with a piano and not with a guitar or a violin as it is more user friendly at the beginning.
Ah shit. Here we go. This song always gets me. Broke up with my girlfriend years ago in october but the november that came after was the darkest period of this phase. Also one of the best Guns 'N Roses songs ever made! To me at least.
Sorry Maddy, I was like 14 min late. 1st (signature Maddy Sway), as SOON as you like what you hear, you got this really kool “Sway” of your head happening. Then “The Kiss” happened!! “Ohhh That’s a kiss”. And I swear Maddy, 1st time I saw this video I was like “ohhh that’s a dress”, then “ Wait did he just kiss her like that”? It’s hard not to get sad watching the video, I was sad with ya. But as soon as I saw your really kool headphones, I was happy again!! Awesome reaction!!💖For your headphones!! lol 🫶For you!!
At 6:27 when the two are in the car, and leaving. It always looks to me as if the bride isn't happy to be married, almost as if she regrets it, or was pressured into the marriage. She doesn't look happy, but he does in that moment. Either that's just the way it happened as they were filming, or it's an element of symbolism purposely put into the narrative.
I love November Rain. It is my fav. song by GnR & my fav. song of all time. It is not a true story. Axl Rose wrote about unrequited love. The video is a part of a trilogy (Dont Cry, November Rain, and Estranged), which is based on a short story called "Without You" by Del James.
Saw them open for The Cult, just after Appetite was released. They blew The Cult off the stage. They became somewhat bombastic during the Illusion albums time period but there are some killer songs on those albums. Especially when Izzy was involved. Love the Upper Deck Studio you have now. Is there a Central Vacuum port up there ?
Noooooo, the wedding was not a dream. It was real too. She committed suicide on the night of the wedding due to Axl's cheating. Watch the bridesmaid snigger during this video at the wedding. That's why she had such doubts and looked miserable for most of the video. I read that recently and it makes sense if you watch 'Don't Cry'.
November Rain Meaning ... "It digs deep, touching on themes of love's complexities and the unavoidable fact that nothing, not even love, lasts forever. Axl Rose, pulling from his own rollercoaster relationship with Erin Everly, crafts lyrics that strike a chord with anyone who's loved and lost."... I can only assume that the death of the wife in the video is a metaphor for the end of the relationship. .
November Rain pre-dates (at least in part) Axl's & Erin's relationship issues. November Rain (the song) was about unrequited love. Sweet Child O'Mine & Estranged are connected to Axl's relationship with Erin, though. The story of November Rain's video (not the song itself) is a part of a trilogy, which is based on the short story "without you" by Del James. The trilogy consists of the videos of: Dont Cry, November Rain, and Estranged.
Hi Maddy! The range of emotions you can experience with music is wide, and when you add a video presentation it oftentimes changes the affect. I think it's a bit ironic that sections of music are called movements. Thank You for being you! ✌️☮️🎸🤙🤟💪🔥❤️
The lead singet Axl Rose who was playing the piano, actually got mad during video filming because Izzy's Piano was out of tune. Guitar player Izzy Stradlin
Noooooooooo, watch the video closely and you'll see the real church on the outside right before the page girl walks up the church. Everyone seems to miss that.
I was originally hooked just a few short days ago buy a thumbnail of you in that painted on white shirt and then watching you laugh to Bill Burr a double treat. So I came to objectify but I stayed because you're truly wonderful and I love the stuff you do. And now on my third day of going through most of your stuff here you are getting ready to do my third favorite song of all time.

Or the body count at the reception was much higher than we were led to believe….
:(
Nice observation
Its because there was a big dinner after the wedding and only tea and sandwiches after the funeral
This is perhaps the fifth time I watched this and actually realized this for the first time. An then I read your comment. Strangely interesting...
When the tone changes and Slash slowly steps up on top of a grand piano to rip a massive solo is one of the coolest moments in rock video history.

The second you see Slash climb on that piano, you now some epicness is about to happen. And damn, does the man deliver on that final solo 😎🎸
Yesss
Slash outside playing guitar = epic. Remember, this pre-dated drones; they had to film those shots using actual helicopters flying by over & over.
WHOA!!! I didn’t realize this
That's why he didn't have the tophat.. It would have blown off lol
She is absolutely stunning I always look forward to her reaction
