Re: On this day in 1988...
I ended up voting brownstone because that was my favourite song during my whole teens basically.
However, I also have a VERY soft-spot for PC, Jungle and Nightrain
Re: On this day in 1988...
I have a hard time picking favorites... if I'd never seen GNR before, I'd never turn down Jungle or Paradise, etc. but I chose Nightrain because it's been my anthem for well over a decade now.
I'm a little surprised at the odd person talking a bit of smack on the album, I think it's unfair, though. It's gotta be burnout or just getting deeper into the tracks. I can't really believe people who love GNR don't love Appetite.
I went through a time when I listened to too much GNR, it was right before I saw them in January of 2010. I remember being down because I thought the show would suck as I was tired of the songs... boy was I fucking wrong! To be fair, though, it was basically the first real arena rock show with pyro, huge screens, etc. I'd ever seen, it knocked me off my ass. I saw Weird Al at a fair once and Nazareth at an outdoor show, but that's not exactly the same. Since the Nazareth show, I have been addicted to concerts and the GNR cemented it.
January 22, 2010, I hadn't really seen a concert. By January 30ish, I'd seen Sebastian Bach open for GNR and then Airbourne and Joe Perry open for Motley Crue. That was a really great fucking week in my life.
Re: On this day in 1988...
Its so easy. Just because of the look on my mums face when I played it to her in the car when I was 15 back in 1990. I used to play it on my stereo in my room, and just have it on real quiet, then blast "why don't you just....." At my parents downstairs.
Such a baddass track, oozes filth & sleeze, yeah!
