Guns N' Roses

   

    Guns N' Roses is an American hard rock band, formed in Los Angeles, California, in 1985. The

classic lineup, as signed to Geffen Records in 1986, consisted of vocalist Axl Rose, lead guitarist

Slash, rhythm guitarist Izzy Stradlin, bassist Duff McKagan, and drummer Steven Adler. The band

has released six studio albums, accumulating sales of more than 100 million albums worldwide,

including shipments of 45 million in the United States. They are maybe the most popular hrd rock

band.

    To me, they are truly one of rocks greatest bands. They brought a fresh new sound and look to the

80's rock mainstream that was, at that time, dominated by hair bands and men that dressed like they

were women. Axl Rose is a beautiful man. Although their lyrics and songs are full of dirty words

violent and sex, but the music stiil attracts me. They are really "true" on the stage and in their music.

    The first song is a legend song- Don't Cry. It stay on the Billboard for 3years (147 weeks). This is a

soft song.


Another song is Sweet Child O'Mine. It is talking about the lead singer, Axl Rose's love to her ex-

wife.


lyrics


She's got a smile that it seems to me
Reminds me of childhood memories
Where everything was as fresh as the bright blue sky
Now and then when I see her face
She takes me away to that special place
And if I stared too long
I'd probably break down and cry

Sweet child o' mine

Sweet love of mine

She's got eyes of the bluest skies

As if they thought of rain
I hate to look into those eyes
And see an ounce of pain
Her hair reminds me of a warm safe place
Where as a child I'd hide and pray
 for the thunder and the rain to quietly pass me by

Sweet child o' mine

Sweet love of mine

Where do we go

Where do we go now
Where do we go
Sweet child o' mine






Don't Cry

Talk to me softly
There's something in your eyes
Don't hang your head in sorrow
And please don't cry
I know how you feel inside I've
I've been there before
Somethin's changin' inside you
And don't you know

Don't you cry tonight
I still love you baby
Don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight
There's a heaven above you baby
And don't you cry tonight

Give me a whisper
And give me a sigh
Give me a kiss before you
tell me goodbye
Don't you take it so hard now
And please don't take it so bad
I'll still be thinkin' of you
And the times we had...baby

And don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight

Don't you cry tonight
There's a heaven above you baby
And don't you cry tonight

And please remember that I never lied
And please remember
how I felt inside now honey
You gotta make it your own way
But you'll be alright now sugar
You'll feel better tomorrow
Come the morning light now baby

And don't you cry tonight
An don't you cry tonight
An don't you cry tonight
There's a heaven above you baby
And don't you cry
Don't you ever cry
Don't you cry tonight
Baby maybe someday
Don't you cry
Don't you ever cry
Don't you cry
Tonight
