3. Sweet child o' mine

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

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

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Paradise City:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Just a' urchin

 

 

 

livin' under the street

 

 

 

I'm a hard case

 

 

 

that's tough to beat

 

 

 

I'm your charity case

 

 

 

So buy me somethin' to eat

 

 

 

I'll pay you at another time

 

 

 

Take it to the end of the line

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ragz to richez or so they say

 

 

 

Ya gotta-keep pushin'

 

 

 

for the fortune and fame

 

 

 

It's all a gamble

 

 

 

When it's just a game

 

 

 

Ya treat it like a capital crime

 

 

 

Everybody's doin' their time

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

[Chorus]

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Take me down

 

 

 

To the paradise city

 

 

 

Where the grass is green

 

 

 

And the girls are pretty

 

 

 

Take me home

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Strapped in the chair

 

 

 

of the city's gas chamber

 

 

 

Why I'm here I can't quite remember

 

 

 

The surgeon general says

 

 

 

it's hazardous to breathe

 

 

 

I'd have another cigarette

 

 

 

but I can't see

 

 

 

Tell me who you're gonna believe

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

[Chorus]

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So far away

 

 

 

So far away

 

 

 

So far away

 

 

 

So far away

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Captain America's been torn apart

 

 

 

Now he's a court jester

 

 

 

with a broken heart

 

 

 

He said-

 

 

 

Turn me around and

 

 

 

take me back to the start

 

 

 

I must be losin' my mind-

 

 

 

"Are you blind?"

 

 

 

I've seen it all a million times

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

[Chorus]

[Escape5]

Definately not GNR.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I would say AC/DC, Rush or Scorpions. All three bands have been around so long, and they still are very very popular. I dont want to write all that now, I will only do Rush.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Rush has one of the best drummers, bassists and guitarists in the whole world. They have been around over 30 years, and they are still very very popular.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Members: Getty Lee - Bassist and lead vocals

 

 

 

Neil Pert - Drums

 

 

 

Alex Lifeson - Guitar and back up vocals

[madchild]

If i was going for a solo artistic definatly Eric Clapton. But this is groups.

 

 

 

Guns n roses are pretty awesome, so are Led Zep hmm...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Guns n Roses for teh win.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I have the exact same opinion as Cartman

 

 

 

But Paridise City is the best song

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

1. Who Do You Think The Best Ever Rockband Is? Why?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Guns n Roses. Because they are cool. Slash is probably the 2nd best guitarist ever (After Hendrix)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

2.Who are the members of that Rockband?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Axl Rose: all lead vocals, backing vocals, synth and percussion.

 

 

 

Slash: lead, rhythm and acoustic gutairs

 

 

 

Izzy Stradlin: rhythm, lead gutairs, backing vocals and percussion.

 

 

 

Duff McKagan: bass gutair and backing vocals

 

 

 

Steven Adler: Drums

~Agreed~

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Also 'bout that Led Zeppelin thing.....

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Best Led Zeppelin Song......Stairway to heaven :lol:

[Sunwarriord]

 

 

 

Guns n Roses. Because they are cool. Slash is probably the 2nd best guitarist ever (After Hendrix)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Uh Slash at number two? What about Jimmy Page, Erifc Clapton, Jeff Beck, David Gilmour, Joe Satriani, Yngwie Malmsteen, Eddie Van Halen, Chuck Berry, Angus Young, Brian May, Kirk Hammett, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Tony Iomni?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I admit Slash is a sweet guitarist, but he's like 50th in my opinion.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

but I don't think there is any greatest rock band, and why did you say the Scorpions.....?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

There's so many different styles of rock, its impossible to say who was the best.

[Escape5]

Dont forget Alex Lifeson :)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Scorpions have been around so long, and have done many great things with music. Hurricane 2000 is one very very good example.

[Sunwarriord]

Scorpions have been around so long, and have done many great things with music. Hurricane 2000 is one very very good example.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

But has the Scorpions really influenced rock n roll in any way? how are they considered one of the greatest rock bands? maybe its just your opinion, they're good and all, but i just don't see them being the greatest.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I think bands who really changed the face of rock like Led Zeppelin, The Who, Rolling Stones, The Beatles, Pink Floyd, Black Sabbath would be considered like the greatest.

[AThousandLies]

I'd put David Bowie up there ... but I dunno if he'd qualify.

^^

 

 

 

I agree bands like what you said, Pink floyd etc, deffinetly are among the greatest rock bands, for there contribution to rock aswell as the fact they changed rock forever..

[Slegdar]

:wink: did anybody forget Greenday

[Poopingman]

:wink: did anybody forget Greenday

 

 

 

No, because they are emo now.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Older stuff circia 90s was passable. Nimrod was an awesome CD, but now? Psh.....high school teeny bopper mainstream emo trash.

[Sunwarriord]

:wink: did anybody forget Greenday

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

haha good one. :roll:

[MyPurpleCrayon]

:wink: did anybody forget Greenday

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Don't even get me started.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Just, don't.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

But anyways... what type of rock? There are soo many types...

[CARTMAN842]

:wink: did anybody forget Greenday

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Very Funny. O Ur Serious, Ooops

[ozecroc]

if i had to choose the best i would probably say the beatles, but as for my favourite...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

1. Pink Floyd, because they have completely changed the way I look at music

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

2. for my favourite song the band members where:

 

 

 

- David Gilmour ÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Ãâ Guitars, Vocals

 

 

 

- Roger Waters ÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Ãâ Bass guitar, Vocals

 

 

 

- Richard Wright ÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Ãâ Keyboards, Vocals,

 

 

 

- Nick Mason ÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Ãâ Drums, Percussion

 

 

 

3. and my favourite song is "wish you were here"

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

lyrics as follows:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So, so you think you can tell Heaven from Hell,

 

 

 

blue skies from pain.

 

 

 

Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail?

 

 

 

A smile from a veil?

 

 

 

Do you think you can tell?

 

 

 

And did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts?

 

 

 

Hot ashes for trees?

 

 

 

Hot air for a cool breeze?

 

 

 

Cold comfort for change?

 

 

 

And did you exchange a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage?

 

 

 

How I wish, how I wish you were here.

 

 

 

We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year,

 

 

 

Running over the same old ground.

 

 

 

What have you found? The same old fears.

 

 

 

Wish you were here.

[How2PK]

if i had to choose the best i would probably say the beatles, but as for my favourite...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

1. Pink Floyd, because they have completely changed the way I look at music

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

How did you look at music before Pink Floyd, and how do you look at it now?

[arjanox]

Guns 'n Roses, because they are legends!!! :x

[ozecroc]

 

if i had to choose the best i would probably say the beatles, but as for my favourite...

It's hard to say, one large change is the idea that an album can actually tell a story rather than be a collection of songs a band thinks people want to hear.

No, because they are emo now.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Older stuff circia 90s was passable. Nimrod was an awesome CD, but now? Psh.....high school teeny bopper mainstream emo trash.

 

 

 

Just because Billie Joe wears eye shadow, they are now emo? Fool.

 

 

 

Rock is quite a loose term, not sure what type you mean, but for a proper rock band, i'd probably say Foo Fighters are the best.
