Album: Appetite For Destruction
Axl über Sweet Child O' Mine: "I had written this poem, reached a dead end with it and put it on the shelf. Then Slash and Izzy got working together on songs and I came in, Izzy hit a rythm, and all of a sudden this poem popped in my head. It just all came together. A lot of rock bands are too fucking wimpy to have any sentiment or any emotion in any of their stuff unless they are in pain. It's the first positive love song I've ever written, but I never had anyone to write anything about before, I guess". Album: Appetite For Destruction Paradise City zeigt die Band bei den Shows im Giant's Stadium in New Jersey und am Castle Donnignton. Beide Orte unterscheiden sich von der Atmosphäre her sehr und bilden einen guten Kontrast. Zwischen den einzelnen Live-Szenen sieht man die Band in den Straßen von New York wie sie zum Beispiel auf dem St. Mark's Place herumlaufen oder die Musikgeschäfte in der 48sten Straße stürmen. Es sind auch noch sehr viele Backstageszenen der beiden Konzerte oder Sequenzen vom Soundcheck im Giants Stadium zu sehen. Die Szenen vom Donnington-Konzert und die Szenen aus New York sind schwarz-weiß, ganz im Gegensatz zu den sonnigen Farbszenen aus New Jersey. Axl über Paradise City: "The verses are more about being in the jungle; the chorus is like being back in the Midwest or somewhere. It reminds me of when I was a little kid and just looked up at the blue sky and went 'Wow, what is all that, it's so big out there'". Everything was more innocent. There are parts of the song that have more of a down home feel. And when I started putting the overlayers on the vocals (I put five tracks on there), it seemed that it came out like some irish or scottish heritage. One of the weird things is that I had a feeling it would go over good in Europe. The kids there sang Brownstone, they sang It's so easy, Mama Kin, and these other songs that the'd heard on the EP. They also sang Paradise City and they'd never heard it". Album: GN'R Lies Dieser Clip ist ein recht sanfter und langsamer Clip. Die Band spielt den Song in einem mit Wandteppichen geschmückten und doch sehr unordentlichen und trotzdem gemütlich aussehenden "Studio". Es wirkt irgendwie etwas gleichgültig wie Axl ab und zu auf seinen Lyrics-Zettel schielt und die Band in den Sesseln herumgammelt während sie auf ihren akustischen Gitarren spielen. Zwischen diesen Studioszenen sind Szenen aus einem Hotel geschnitten. Menschen laufen herum, sitzen in der Lobby und verschwinden dann plötzlich wie Geister. Duff trägt ein Tablett aus seinem Zimmer in die Lobby, Slash sitzt gelangweilt auf seinem Bett und spielt mit einer Schlange wärend eine Frau nach der anderen ins Bett steigt und verschwindet. Axl läuft durch sein Zimmer und zerstört ein blau leuchtendes Telefon. In einer anderen Szene sitzt Axl vor dem TV-Gerät und sieht sich das Welcome to the jungle-Video an. Slash über die Szene mit der Schlange: "I just took Pandora down to the video shoot and we did a scene where I'm laying in bed. She's just a regular red-tailed boa-it's a he, actually. I named him Pandora because I thought it was a she. I didn't really check him out too well when I got him. So, I took him down to shoot this scene in the video, a scene that I wrote. I always write my own scenes, and I had this idea to use a snake. It's pretty cool. Album: Use Your Illusion II
Slash - Arnold was great. I was real skeptical about getting involved with "Terminator" at first, because. uhh. It's just. It's another one of those things people do a lot nowadays. And you see these videos that makes absolutely no sense. It's like, the song, and then. and then. uhh. and then. uhh. you know, some clip from the movie, and then you see the band and the two. The twain don't meet on the same ground for some reason. And so, I didn't wanna get involved into that sort of campy way of doing things. But at the same time, "Terminator 1" was great. And so we liked that, you know. And sort of in good faith, we gave them four songs for them to check out. To see if they're really interested or not. 'Cause they brought it up to us, we didn't go to them. And they picked "You Could Be Mine" and. So, we went to Arnold's house and we had dinner and we hung out. And it was like, we stripped away all the. the celebrity status stuff and just really hung out and had dinner and had a great time. So that meant a lot, you know, to get personal and get toe-to-toe with somebody. That's like, one of the most important things for us, is to be able to feel comfortable with somebody. And believe me, that's a hard thing for us to do. And so, that went over well. And they. they took "You Could Be Mine". and they put it into a rough edit and we went and saw a screening. And the movie was cool and the song was really cool where it was in the movie. And. as long as we had final approval on the. on how we were gonna use it in the video, then everything was great. And the finished product was cool. So, I'm actually happy with it. And I thought for a movie. uhh. for. for. you know, music video. music video slash movie kind of thing, it was pretty original, you know. And pretty dynamic.
