Guns N' Roses' Greatest Hits may bear all the hallmarks of a hastily assembled compilation -- there are no liner notes, the cardboard packaging is flimsy, the remastering isn't notable -- but it does offer all the band's biggest hits: "Welcome to the Jungle," "Sweet Child O' Mine," "Patience," "Paradise City," "Don't Cry," "You Could Be Mine," "November Rain," and "Live and Let Die" among them. While there are certainly several noteworthy tracks missing -- charting singles like "Nightrain" and "Estranged," and essential album tracks like "It's So Easy," "Mr. Brownstone," and "Used to Love Her," for instance -- for listeners who want a collection containing the group's biggest hits on one disc, this disc will serve their needs nicely. (Of interest to diehards is the band's cover of the Rolling Stones' "Sympathy for the Devil," previously only available on the Interview With the Vampire soundtrack and making its first appearance on a GN'R album here.) ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide
They have such a small catalog that a greatest hits compilation isn't really warranted. Besides, this one's missing a good number of their best songs from Appetite...
Absolute best album by them, their greatest hits- LOVE every song on here.. Slash and Axle you F**king rock and are my inspiration to play the guitar- Would so love to meet you guys in person and say Thank You!!
One of the greatest bands of all time. Great love songs. When I was in high school years ago, my boyfriend wrote all the words down to one of their songs and I thought it was great, so I had to hear it and I have loved Guns n Roses every since. They never get old. I can listen to this music and it relaxes me.
Dude, this is the freakin' opposite of an overrated band! GNR deserves all of the credit they're given for their music. And, just to point it out just about every band destroys themselves at some point. Izzy Stradlin is one of the greatest songwriters of the 80's. This album totally rules.
What a completely overated band. They revel in their love for themselves, so average, I can't believe people still talk about this band. Anyway, they destroyed themselves, so that tells you how actually less than average they really were. Total crap!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Awesome album if you are not a diehard GnR fan and just know the big hits. Yes, I was also wondering where the hell Nightrain and Mr. Brownstone were. But all that aside, it's only like 10 bucks so I think it's worth it.
My girlfriend broke up with me and I don't know what love is. My girl is going to be so anti- guy girl because of her reglion, and she is not aloud to date any body or gender, and she is not aloud to get marry to anybody,so she can't be my true love, I am romantic, sweet to girls. I am real easy to get along with. I'm looking for my true love. If you are instered you can email me on myyearbook.c o m . my eamil is bad_to_the_b o n e _ d j @ y a h o o . co m
this song remind me of the time i was in cincinnati when i was growing up going to school. those was the good days, i never knew that life was going to be so hard 4 me sometimes i can just go somewhere and cry (sweet child of mine)
