One of
Guns n' Roses many great songs. It is a love song written for
Axl Rose's then-wife Erin Everly.
It started during a jam session when as a joke
Slash started playing, in his words, "a stupid little riff" which he'd used as an excercise, and making wierd faces at drummer
Steve Adler.
Izzy Stradlin then came in with some chords and
Duff McKagan improvised a bass line.
Axl was amazed and started singing from a love letter to Erin. In 1988, with the release of
Appetite for Destruction, Sweet Child reached #1 on the billboard
top 40, even passing
Welcome to the Jungle. Slash originally didn't like the song, but after playing it live he began to enjoy it more. His riff is always listed as one of the greatest ever by music critics.
Unfortunately, Axl and Everly's relationship did worse than the song, ending in divorce and spousal abuse lawsuits. But the song is amazing anyway.
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'd stare too long
I'd probably break down and cry
Woah, oh, oh, Sweet child o' mine
Whoah, oh, oh, oh, 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
Woah, oh, oh, Sweet child o' mine
Woah, oh, oh, oh, Sweet love of mine
Woah, oh, oh, yeah
Whoah, oh, oh oh, Sweet child o' mine
Whoah oh, oh, oh, sweet love of mine
Whoah, oh, oh oh, Sweet child o' mine, ooh yeah,
Oh, sweet love of mine
Where do we go,
Where do we go now,
Where do we go,
Where do we go,
Oh, where do we go now
Where do we go,
Oh, where do we go now
Where do we go now,
where do we go,
Oh, where do we go now
where do we go,
where do we go now,
where do we go,
whoah, where do we go now,
Sweet child,
Sweet child o' mine
Buy a
Sweet Child O' Mine
mug!
The original rhythm guitarist for
guns n' roses. He was the quiet member of the band, and didn't look for much attention. He was a pretty good guitarist, and wrote alot of the band's best songs, and co-wrote many others. He was the first gunner to give up drugs and alchohol, in 1989, though this was in part because of a court order after an arrest for disorderly conduct and indecent exposure on an airplane. He left in the middle of the
use your illusion tour because of creative differences with
