Rules: Post your top songs in order, with points next to them. The highest song in your top 5 should have 5 points, put it down as such or I won't count it (look below for example). Notice: If you do not post as this, I'm not counting your votes. Seriously, how hard is it to read? After three days of votes, I'll make a poll of the top 5, which will also last three days. Let the debate begin!

Don't bother putting live versions, as I'm just gonna count it as something else.

Because Velvet Revolver is as much GNR to me as New GNR, and I wasn't gonna do a VR one otherwise.

Updating, I see far to many Sweet Child's for my taste >.<

I agree, I just think that they have better songs, and I just kinda got tired of it after a while.

i agree too. It used to be my favorite GNR song, but now it's 4th or 5th

Sweet Child has to have one of the most irritating riffs ever.

Sweet Child O'Mine is like Freebird or Stairway, in that it is a good song, but played far to god damn much.

I love everything about Sweet Child Of Mine except the vocals. Axl's voices just doesn't fit right on some songs.

What is the hate against Post Steven Adler GNR?

Anyway, polls up.

I'm only posting to put that up though, so I'm still gonna be posting at odd times due to vacation.

CommonCriminal
07-06-2009, 02:32 AM
On the poll, Welcome to the Jungle.

07-06-2009, 02:37 AM
Definitely not Sweet Child o' Mine. I've heard that song played endlessly by novice guitar players at guitar stores everywhere, and I'm tired of it. I guess Paradise City for me, though I'm no GNR fan by any stretch of the imagination.

voted Mr. Brownstone, my fav. out of those 5

07-06-2009, 08:48 AM
Out of the five...I was torn at first because I really love Civil War...but nothing beats blasting Welcome to the Jungle while roaring down Sepulveda Blvd in the middle of Los Angeles.

Teh_Jakester
07-06-2009, 09:37 AM
Seeing as I only like two on there (Sweet Child and Welcome to the Jungle), this was easy. I can't say I didn't expect the surge of popular songs, though. Sigh.

franticfish
07-06-2009, 09:51 AM
Voted Civil War.

I voted for Civil War

Quinarvy
07-06-2009, 09:29 PM
I voted Civil War, because its awesome.

But to decide between it and Mr. Brownstone, it's on a UYI, which are better then AfD, in my opinion.

Quinarvy
07-07-2009, 05:54 PM

can i switch my vote from Brownstone to Civil War?

Teh_Jakester
07-09-2009, 12:02 PM
Can I change my vote to Civil War, too? Anything to stop Paradise City from winning.

Quinarvy
07-10-2009, 08:36 AM
I'm declaring Civil War the winner.

For the sole reason that it led for longer.

I'll start up another BS soon.
