Axl is a bass baritone. His speaking voice is really deep. It's crazy how effortlessly he can sing that high.
Bass and baritone are different things, like tenor, alto and soprano.
@@arphod A bass-baritone is someone who is a high bass or a low baritone. Axl Rose is considered as a Bass-baritone just like how Paul McCartney is considered as a Bari-Tenor.
Axl's vocals are mind blowing. You are correct that it is crazy that he can reach all those high notes, while his natural voice is so low :)
I’ve read his vocal range is crazy, like 6 octaves or something?
Lex: I like that electric guitar!!
Slash: 😏
Facts
iii]; )'
There is no better guitar porn than this... Period!
One of the greatest Rock songs ever written. It’s literally perfect.
pop rock maybe? anybody who knows rock and plays it know what GnR are.
@@db212006 lol what does that even mean?… 🤦🏻♂️
Nah
@@db212006 hard rock or glam metal
MercuryMachines he said it’s a pop rock song which it kinda is
Axl has a huge vocal range. Singing this high was definitely a choice on his part.
He HAD...
@@Ashley-lm4nv hes gittin gud again, i where impressed last gigg
@@ir0nfist447 was a big fan late 80`and 90`, bought chinese Democracy at release, met him in 2014, not went to the concert because i had too good memories from my teen years. So...he had a great voice.
Je was in choir in high school my high school art teacher in Indianapolis went to high school with him in west Lafayette Indiana
Yep, I thought it was literally a different person singing on tracks like Mr. Brownstone.
I like how Lex's face just lights up every time she hears a sick guitar riff. She needs to get herself to a metal show pronto! Slash is a GUITAR GOD.
She needs to get herself a guitar and plug in!! She's a born rocker! Would love to see what she writes!
Sorry I disagree eric Clapton is better then slash
Lex! teach yourself guitar!
He is good there are many others a lot better than Slash
I was thinking the same thing.
There is history to this song when Axl Rose was a runaway from Indiana and landed w/ his homie in the LA Greyhound Bus Station at 3am. And as the left the bus station a homeless man comes out from under the over pass and tell these young impressionable young dudes... "you know where you are?... You're in the jungle, baby!!"
Fucking awesome lmao
He goes into this even more with One in a Million which he talks about a lot of the bullshit he went through before they blew up.
*LA/Hollywood* is the concrete jungle he's speaking of
& LA in the ‘80s was fucking crazy all the shit on the strip cocaine & crack everywhere not to mention bloods & crips shooting & killing each other every hour
Yeah it's pretty much about small town guys and girls going to to LA to "find their fortune" they normally get eaten up and chewed up by LA, most of them end up strung out drug addicted failures and probably end up getting abused.
This. The "Jungle".
Nope , he's talking about NY
It's pretty funny how innocently they saw the song when the lyrics are about drugs, sex, violence, prostitution and young runaways living hard on the streets of L.A. with dreams of making it.
Brad has a talent for pausing always when there is a tempo or mood change, effectively killing the vibe every time, wow
Gotta pause every two minutes to avoid copyright claim. Sad but True.
Its because he really only cares about the lyrics and not really the musical aspect of it as much. It's why he got visibly annoyed when he asked her if she was paying attention to the lyrics and she said no. lol They are legit complete opposites when it comes to how they consume music and what they enjoy about it. She is more into the feeling, what instruments are being used and how, and he is into the lyrics and needing to understand what the song is about.
Nightrain, Mr . Brownstone , Sweet child of Mine , Its So Easy . The whole Appetite for Destruction, great .
He'll I'm gonna threw it on an do work around the house.
Rocket queen
@@soulcontrol6691 my favorite that My Michelle.
Arguably one of top five albums of all time
You're Crazy is a banger. Great groove in the chorus too!
Guns N Roses: Appetite For Destruction is THE quintessential 80s hard rock album. Their debut album and it went straight to number 1. It's the 11th best selling album of all time! I have an unbelievable amount of nostalgia for this as it was the first album I ever owned. Had it on Cassette and played it until it finally broke. I remember those years from 1987-1994 when every time GNR put out a new album or live concert video it was an event. Hell, I remember my first girlfriend had a poster of Axl Rose (the singer) on her bedroom wall. Guns N Roses for life!
Slash’s guitar and Axl’s voice is an unbeatable combo!;}> These guys sold over 189 million records worldwide. So anyone who tries taking away from or talking shit about this group never really listened to them and are quite simply just hating;}>
axl is just insufferable to be around these days.
@@theghostofthomasjenkins9643 he's never around
@@theghostofthomasjenkins9643Cap. He was nice as hell when I met him on my Birthday. He even sang Happy Birthday to me and interacted with his fans after their concert.
Sweet Child O’ Mine for the next one. One of the absolute top tier guitar solos of all time.
Totally agree. I think it’s better than November Rain
You must not have heard alot of guitar playin` i guess...
Doesn't Slash hate that solo?
@@TastyChurro Not sure, but it doesn't change how good that solo is.
Without question!!!
Sweet child o mine, November rain, estranged, coma, don’t cry, yesterday’s, patience, paradise city, rocket queen, locomotive, since I don’t have you, it’s so easy, I mean the list goes on and on. A shitload of they’re songs that weren’t huge hits are actually some of the most talented songs ever, like coma, & locomotive just to name a few!!
Why not One in a Million? Lol
@@tonyv.8781 hell, I thought about throwing that on there but I figured I would let someone else request that one;}> lol
@@brandonhurt7980 look at your game, girl.
No he is saying welcome to hollywood and the industry... and if a girl wants to get casted or drugs .... well... she is going to have to F for them... Harvey Weinstein type shit
forgot Nightrain and Mr. Brownstone
Rocket Queen is one of my favorite songs from them.
When the best GNR songs from their album Appetite For Destruction were the ones they didn't play on the radio. And they played more than most.
My Michele and Mister Brownstone are, of course, the other standouts equaling or exceeding Rocket Queen. It's one of those few albums you could listen to all the way through, repreatedly, without complaint.
@@NefariousKoel Yeah , I think a lot of people agree with that. I know I do. My playlists for their songs , I skip the radio hits from Appetite.
Lex is a Rocker!!! I've watched several of your reactions and you can tell she really appreciates Rock-n-Roll musicianship. Nothin' better than a screamin' electric guitar that's being shredded well. Slash is in the top tier for sure.
This woman is soooo worthy to wear a Led Zep shirt. She is not a poseur.
You need a little Rocket Queen next, or Mr. Brownstone.
This is another album that belongs in everybody's collection. It was the album that put 80s hair metal on notice that that junk was done.
When he first came to LA on the bus a homeless man told him " welcome to the Jungle, you're going to die"
Yep
It was NYC not LA. AXL talks about it at the 88 Ritz show before this song.
That's so fucking cool, like from a movie or something...
@@user-sm2ql7nq4l wrong
@@Randomeris1 i know huh? i like hearing the history of how songs were created
GNR is an amazing band. Axl's voice is considered one of the greats. His octaves are INSANE. Slash, the guitar player, is also honored in rock history. ❤️💯
I dig the dualistic chem y'all got. Brad's always dissecting the lyrics and Lex is swimming around the sounds
Brad always smiling but looking adult and skeptical lol Lex always jamming along with the people without a care! You two are classic awesome sauce
A small town kid moves from Indiana to Los Angeles, and gets his first taste of the real world, which is a jungle. Everything in the song - the singing, the guitar, the drums, bass, all tells the story. Music used to do that.
When this video first appeared on MTV, it blew everyone’s mind. GNR’s gritty in your face blues rock sound changed the music landscape. My pops was even jamming to it😂. MTV played it at least once an hour. This was also back when there were actually music stores where you bought music. The albums/cassette tapes/CDs sold out as soon as they hit the shelves at first. Great memories. I miss the music store experience..
Sweet Child O' Mine or November Rain are probably good early introduction songs for GNR. They are going to be Brad's vibe for sure
I wouldn't put November rain as an "early" introduction. They should stick to appetite for destruction for atleast 3 or 4 songs I think. November rain was like 5 years after appetite for destruction. But they most certainly must check out November Rain in the future. I would say Sweet Child O Mine, Paradise city and Mr. Brownstone first. Then most certainly the Use your illusion album after that. The Spaghetti Incident they should jus completely skip over. That album was an embarassment, lol.
Rocket Queen is their best song IMO
This music marks a very VERY fun time in my life!
Lex: His hair is a lot. His pants are a lot.
Me: Yes.
It was the 80's..it was excess in excess.
Lots of fun.
You can't really get it from videos.
You had to live it.
Most younger people don't understand that.
Rock On!
Me too. I got to experience GnR when they were new, and I was 16!
It's like the most popular song in the history of music. How have you not heard this?
So I'll speak for me. I grew up only liking rap hip hop r&b so this music wasn't a choice for me. As I grew older I learned to appreciate all kinds of music and enjoying this type of music
@@Alex_SD619 i’m just thinking, though, this song is played all the time at sporting events, commercials, all over the radio, and just about everywhere. I don’t listen to rap or R&B music, but there are certain iconic songs that I know just because they are so big that they permeate everything. this is one of those songs. It’s just hard to believe that anybody hasn’t heard this song in this day and age. But hey, that’s what it is
@@Alex_SD619Oh Girlfriend...welcome to the rich world of Rock!!! It only gets better. 😊
This song actually originated when Axl first got in LA. An older black gentleman said to him do you know where you are? You’re in the jungle baby. It grew from there where he talks about the seedier side of rock and roll
"It's so easy" best gnr song
Used to play this in my cover band days, so much fun to play. The solos are so cool. Slash single handedly brought the Les Paul back to life at a time when everyone was playing an Eddie type guitar.
You two have such great chemistry and personality! So glad you started your channel! Hope someday I'll write a hit song for you to react to!
Trust me, Axl's singing. Dude just has a huge range. Some songs will sound like a total different person. Sometimes he sounds like two different people in one song. Dude was amazing.
similar to Freddie Mercury, Axl can sing semi-tones, overtones, etc sometimes sounds like two notes coming out of his vocal chords at the same time - and his range is otherworldly. Def distinct lol 😹 I feel he is really underrated as a vocalist even if he sounds like a cat in perpetual heat
If you really want to hear his voice listen to "November Rain" it's a chill song compared to their other songs or "Sweet child of Mine"
Sweet Child o' Mine is Slash's magnum opus.
Also the song yesterdays
Patience is a good one too!
Love 💙 Love
It's ridiculously long.
They are the most dangerous band, love them
Still the greatest band I've ever had the pleasure of seeing live. That night was all sorts of crazy!
Brad saying "oh goodness" at the start, when Lex said "it's interesting"... that made me smile.
It never occurred to me that you hadn't heard Guns N Roses before!?!? I like your Godsmack reactions, but GNR is my favorite band of all time! This album, and many say that this song, changed rock forever! One of the greatest rock bands of all time! Slash is a legend of a guitar player as well. Good reaction.
Have you heard hard school
As much as I like GnR, I don’t think it was them that changed rock. That was def Metallica in mid-late 80’s and then fully the grunge era in the 90’s. More specifically, Nirvana’s Smells Like Teen Spirit.
@@jaybird455 I don't put any of the three in the same category though. GNR - rock/hard rock, Metallica - metal, Nirvana - a migraine that gets far too much credit...but grunge. Lol. That's just me though.
@@RTTGunsGear I always felt like the grunge era is what sent both Metallica and GnR into totally different directions. Metallica became more radio friendly with the the Black Album and then completely changed their sound with Load. They def had to adapt. I don’t remember GnR doing much after that at all. I know Myles Kennedy kinda took over frontman in the 2000’s but they just toured and Myles had his focus with Alter Bridge. I can’t agree with you about Nirvana though. I def respected Kurt’s talent of writing and creating. Would he have sustained it? Who knows.
@@jaybird455
I don’t think Nirvana changed anything that hadn’t already been done before them by The Melvins, Mudhoney, Husker Du or the Pixies. They just had better timing. But, not necessarily more talent, regardless what the fawning media says.
This was the song that introduced GnR back when I was in middle school. This group really defined those years for me, and even to this day I'm still getting new meanings out of their songs. Axl the lead singer actually does have a 6 octave range in his voice which is amazing so the high parts aren't actually part of a character or anything. For my money, Slash on lead guitar is easily one of the top 5 greatest guitarists ever, his solos are amazing and especially when you get into their longer songs they actually enhance the lyrics.
Here are some of my ideas for you all to try out.
From their first album Appetite for Destruction - Paradise City, Sweet Child O' Mine, My Michelle, and Mr. Brownstone
From the Use your Illusion double album - They have a trilogy which is Don't Cry, November Rain, and Estranged. Others on those albums that are must listens are Coma, Civil War, Breakdown, Locomotive, The Garden, Don't Damn Me, Bad Apples, and You Could Be Mine.
Great reaction yesterday. Who would have thought that Brad would be a bigger GnR fan than Lex ??
Gotta post Paradise video too, Lex loving Slash was awesome.
Welcome to GNR! One of my favorite bands as a teenager. You definitely need to listen to more of their music. There is a very defined evolution with this band as they became more famous. They got better with some time and experience. Another band I highly recommend from this era is Skid Row. Great reaction as always.
His voice is one of the greatest in rock history.
Civil War by GnR, would be a good convo piece for you two
Great song
💯
Lex I gotta say it, your genre is Rock!!! It’s that look and smile you got when you’re watching. Priceless !
One of the bad ass rock songs of all time . Inner city life
GNR reminds me of being a kid in the late 80s! Good memories!
Still remember when my brother brought the casette tape home and I played it when he was out with his friends. It was a pure wtf is this moment. Lol
Me, too!
The song is about him being a from a small town in Indiana and moving to the big city of Los Angeles at a young age
I remember hearing this song when it came out like it was yesterday.. it shook my world ...and everyone else at the time. I lived 1 block from the sunset strip, rock Mecca... everyone was talking about them
Honestly ur reaction videos are so cool and honest I love bred and lex and lex is really cool upbeat. Really interesting video love u guys.❤😊
One of the best debut albums ever!!!!
How is Lex always so tight on lyrics and meanings, and also great hear with the instrumental work.
Axl can hit more octaves than Mariah. Got to give him the benefit of the doubt.
Love you guys commentaries
👍👍👍👍great reaction I enjoy all of them!
One of the best opening songs on an album ever
“Paradise City” should come next
Ooh Yes !!!
They did paradise city, sweet child o mine and rocket queen last night in the live chat. Hopefully they will post them all.
Civil war is a great
@@christym1974 thank you 🙏🏼
@@christym1974 no November Rain?
The Jungle in the song depicts Los angles where they started their band. It talks about the craziness of La
Lex, yes, it's about the streets of LA for an unknown band (Guns and Roses) trying to get started in the big city. "Welcome to the Jungle" is what they were told when they first got there.
Best opening track from the best debut album ever!!
Guns and Roses - "Mr Brownstone"or "Night Train" 😉👍
All he Best and keep up the imaginative and highly articulate descriptions of these tracks you are right more then you are wrong
Long Live Brad The Ballad Boy & Lex The Rock Chick
You Always Turn it Up More too 11!
Late 80s and early 90s hit machine. Axl has an amazing voice and Slash shreds
"Welcome To The Jungle" is an all-time classic, to be sure, and GnR's debut album, Appetite For Destruction, is the best-selling debut rock album ever. And the album is almost like a greatest hits album, as most of the songs on the album are classics today ("Mr. Brownstone" being my favorite).
Iconic rock album!
1987 - such a great year for music. Hysteria and Appetite for Destruction really blew the roof off
Always think of the movie "Lean on me" whenever I hear this song. Probably the best song for that scene. Its probably like 5min or so into it. If you've never seen it I highly recommend it Great movie
I just rewatched that movie last week! I forgot it was in that one.
That scene is downright epic. Great movie.
Axl's inspiration was clearly Led Zeppelin's Robert Plant, like so many other heavy metal lead singers. Even Slash's guitar sounds a lot like Jimi Page live in The Song Remains The Same movie.
But way better
Not heavy metal. Rock ‘n’ roll!
I was born in the very late 70’s, very late!
And as soon as I heard the first notes, in my early, of the first song, of theirs debut album just knew this was no ordinary band, with an ordinary run of the mill album!
It gets put around far too often but it’s was, is a total game game changer!
Appreciate For Destruction is truly legendary all the way from Welcome to the Jungle to Rocket Queen!
Imagine for a moment. You are a 13 year old kid that he and his family just moved to a new state and this album just came out.. this whole album was my way to fit in and make new friends
Check out: November Rain, Patience, Civil War
You really want to hear Axl's range, listen to It's So Easy.
Two hundred million records sold for Guns and Roses and Axel's voice is top level..............musician levels over the moon. Iconic band and singer!
The concrete jungle. His interpretation of the city streets. Slash is one of the most famous guitarists in the world. His iconic bolo and hair made up his iconic style. Guns and Roses was on of the most popular rock bands of the 80's. They were crazy partiers and were known for destruction. They still tour today to a packed house.
Yes it's a real shame they can now only pack out a house, i remember the good old days when they could pack out a stadium.
aXLE rOSE WAS TRAINED IN HIS VOICE BY A WORLD FAMOUS OPERA SINGER
I seen this in Headbangers Ball, and the next day I bought the album. Which back then was a cassette. By far the best music I had heard up to that point, and it stands up to the test of time! Great album, great band! edit. By far the best contemporary music. I hadn’t heard TOOL, yet, and at the time I had heard better music, Led and Floyd.
This is the most I've seen Brad smile through music :)
This video was my introduction to Guns N Roses. I was like "what the hell is this. this is awsome" I couldn't stop watching.
You could literally do this whole album. Not a bad step in the whole thing
G&R one in a million reaction with lyrics. That will definitely get the comment section talking.
Early to mid 80s an Sunset Strip - I bet it was fun :) Guns ´n Roses was my first concert when they played in Vienna in 1992, I was 8 years old :)
Guns N’ Roses you definitely can go down the rabbit hole with them. They have so many great songs and some epic ones at that
He talking about he’s life in LA and how hard it is. You should watch he’s documentary.
Slash, the guitarist, played on "Dangerous" *edit*. He's played with a lot of artists.
Slash played on “Dangerous.” EVH and Steve Lukather played on thriller.
@@mysteriousbeaver666 That's right, I forgot. Lukather played the rhythm and Eddie Van Halen also played the solo on "Beat It".
Others may have commented on this already, but I like the song because it gives you a very specific idea of what a large city does to you, especially if you're there looking for fame. I have to say, I love the lyrics because they are powerful, sleazy, sexy, and everything you'd find along your way tot he top, only to be chewed up and spit out by the city itself. It's pretty hardcore, for me anyway. Great lyrics. I hope you take time to analyze them. Love your videos! Rock on! \m/
I was in my mid teenage years when this was released, loved it. I just took my teenage son to a GNR concert, and he loved it. Although axl cannot reach those high notes anymore they, still put on a good solid 3 hrs performance.
To REALLY get a full sense of Guns & Roses, do:
• Paradise City
• Sweet Child O Mine
• It’s So Easy
You don’t need anything else.
I think November Rain has to be on any GnR shortlist.
Rocket queen
Not Nightrain? Cmon
My Michele is a fuckin rocker too
Pretty much this whole album.
This was the song played at my High School Football games.
Check out GNR- Paradise City
Just watched this. I loved guns n roses I'm from the UK but was instantly hit by Axl's artistic take of inner city LA compared to being a jungle. The dog eat dog world of desperation and criminality was something he found himself trying to survive. Even his voice and his screams show that he's become the animal. In his real life he came from the country to LA and lived homeless for 2 years fighting everyone and his own childhood demons. Axl was honesty and true raw emotion, I loved that in his vocal style..
Lex was 100% right, Axl wrote this about his experience of hitting the streets when he got to California for the first time.
Their cover of Knocking on Heaven's Door live. Axl has about 14 different voices. They're all fantastic
I hated that version sorry
If you got the money honey, we got your disease. Classic.
HAHAHA I love you darlings, welcome to old school!! ♥♥♥ TY for being brave enough to explore this.. Did you just mention Rocky Horror>?? I might be in love dear
Great reaction. Lots of likes!
My dad went to one of their concerts and came back with a broken rib , he said “it was worth it” 🙄🤣🤣
I get it
My first concert at 16 years old was GnR with Metallica. Faith No More as opening act.
@@adgato75 wow that must of been amazing seeing them together live !
@@thrashdagnarz8103 It was awesome. Especially to a 16 year old lol.
Axl has one of those voices you either love or hate imo, like Bob Dylan, Billy Corgan or Dave Mustaine.
Except Axl is a better singer than those guys, in my opinion of course.
Ooooh, she’s gonna LOVE Slash. 🎩🎸🚬
Narrowly speaking, it’s about surviving the Hollywood rock scene of that era. A lot of these people came out to Hollywood in the late 70’s-80’s to find their rock stardom and this song captures that energy perfectly. 🤘🏼
Lex, you are into metal with a capital M. I was at a Metallica concert where the fans burned a gins and roses hat and everyone cheered. I like both but you are obviously on the Metallica side 😃
Keep up the reactions guys and Lex, don't let them tell you to not go crazy, do you think everything is calm at the gigs, no, go for it! I always smile when you get into it Holy wars Megadeth reaction is my favourite 😃
Best Guns N Roses song is “Night train” IMO. Also happens to be Slash’s (the lead guitarist) favorite song.
I think he prefers Coma…
@@Belone1976 Slash's words, not mine.
So funny to see Brad smiling from the start👌👌
I really enjoy when you guys react to the older music I have not listen to this song in years that was the good stuff
I absolutely love his voice it's not fake he sounds like that on every song. He's talking about Drugs.
