I've never been a huge fan, but in my teens I had lots of friends who loved them. I never got it. These days I have to sing their stuff at gigs, so it's come back to bite me. But I have to say that I enjoy singing 'Sweet Child of Mine' the best out of all of them. 'Live and Let Die' is cool too. One I truly hate singing, but everyone seems to love, is 'November Rain'. In fact I once got paid an extra 100€ to play that song two more times by some dude. Ugh. Whatever keeps people happy

Whether we write or speak or do but look
We are ever unapparent. What we are
Cannot be transfused into word or book.
Our soul from us is infinitely far.
However much we give our thoughts the will
To be our soul and gesture it abroad,
Our hearts are incommunicable still.
In what we show ourselves we are ignored.
The abyss from soul to soul cannot be bridged
By any skill of thought or trick of seeming.
Unto our very selves we are abridged
When we would utter to our thought our being.
We are our dreams of ourselves, souls by gleams,
And each to each other dreams of others' dreams.
Fernando Pessoa, 1918
