8. ''Sweet Child O' Mine''
Guns N' Roses (1988)
It begins with Slash making sweet love to his Les Paul. Then Axl Rose starts rough-rhapsodizing about his baby's blue eyes and pretty smile. The lyrics read like they were written by a high school boy who can't stop carving his girlfriend's name into the bleachers. It's a perfect tribute to the young, messy, all-absorbing feeling that makes you want to punch a hole in the wall as you scream your undying love.
