U know what I don't understand

New Jersey had more hit singles than Slippery, is a better album IMO overall but yet sold about a 3rd of Slippery.

I don't understand.

Guns N Roses

They had a massive effect on the industry and pop culture. GNR were the bridge from hair metal to grunge. Every kid in 8th grade was listening to Born to Me By Baby and I'll Be There For You on MTV, but they were rocking out to AFD on their cassette players. While Born to Be My Baby made you think of Melissa in your social studies class, you were fingering her while listening to Its So Easy.

Bon Jovi are even lucky they survived that. David Lee Roth went from being on top of the world to completely irrelevant, and AFD is responsible for that.
