Awesome Guns N Roses

You Make Me Feel Like Stayin’ a Rocket Queen

You Make Me Feel Like Stayin’ a Rocket Queen

While the Bee Gees and Leo Sayer were popular during the disco era, Guns N’ Roses came along a decade later with a very different sound. That didn’t stop remixer Bill McClintock from uniting this musical throuple. Along the way, White Zombie, Jimi Hendrix, and Boston drop in to join the unholy orgy of sound.

Video Killed The Sweet Child

Video Killed The Sweet Child

Mixing Guns N’ Roses and The Buggles might not seem like an obvious thing to do. But it turns out that Sweet Child O’ Mine and Video Killed the Radio Star go together like peanut butter and jelly. DJ Cummerbund created this brief mashup of the seemingly mismatched tunes for his live shows, but we’d love to hear a full-length version of the track.

Appetite for Destruction by 12 Bands

Appetite for Destruction by 12 Bands

Musician Steve Welsh imagines what it might have sounded like if the album Appetite for Destruction wasn’t just written by Guns N’ Roses, but they shared writing credit with 11 other bands. We can’t decide if Motörhead It’s So Easy or Mr. Brownstone by Oasis is our favorite.

Sweet Bluegrass Child O’ Mine

Sweet Bluegrass Child O’ Mine

Vocalists Robyn Adele Anderson and Anthony Vincent of Ten Second Songs fame teamed up to perform this twangy bluegrass cover of the Guns N’ Roses track Sweet Child O’ Mine. Get out your dew rags and your best square dancin’ outfit for a good old time.

Sweet Oompah o’ Mine

Sweet Oompah o’ Mine

German band The Heimatdamisch is best known for their oompah-infused covers of rock songs. If you’re looking for a soundtrack to go with a stein of beer and some bratwurst, their ska-tinged version of Guns N’ Roses’ hit Sweet Child o’ Mine should do the trick.

How Soon Is the Jungle?

How Soon Is the Jungle?

If Morrissey sang the Guns ‘N Roses track Welcome to the Jungle and Johnny Marr played the guitar part like he did on How Soon Is Now? it might sound something like this cover by by Good Future. If you enjoyed that, check out his version of Justin Bieber’s “Peaches” by The Strokes.

Feet Child O’ Mine

Feet Child O’ Mine

Brazilian musician Johnatha Bastos was born with partially-formed arms. But he doesn’t let that get in his way. As he proves in this awesome guitar cover of Sweet Child O’ Mine, talent and tenacity can help overcome any physical challenge. Oh, and he plays keyboards too.

Green Child O’ Mine

Green Child O’ Mine

Novelty band The Merkins celebrate the second season of The Mandalorian with a parody of the Guns N’ Roses track Sweet Child O’ Mine, with the lyrics rewritten to be about everyone’s favorite 50-year-old child, Baby Yoda. The lead vocals are spot-on thanks to special guest singer Alvi Robinson of the rock band The L.A. Maybe.

Sweet Recorder of Mine

Sweet Recorder of Mine

He’s got a flute it seems to me, reminds me of childhood memories… Musician Danilo D’Ambrosio performs an unexpected cover version of the Guns N’ Roses classic Sweet Child O’ Mine using a variety of wind instruments, including a couple of recorders and whistles.

Sweet Piano O’ Mine

Sweet Piano O’ Mine

Musician Ron Minis really loves him some Guns N’ Roses. But when he was growing up, his parents only got him piano lessons. But Ron didn’t let his lack of guitar expertise stand in his way from playing Slash’s Sweet Child O’ Mine solo anyhow.

Guns ‘N Roses ‘N Violins

Guns ‘N Roses ‘N Violins

An unlikely cover version of Guns ‘N Roses Sweet Child O’ Mine performed in four violin parts by musician Cathie King. The video is two years old, but is just making the rounds now that G’NR shared it. Arrangement by Ben Hippen.

Sweet Chinese Child o’Mine

Sweet Chinese Child o’Mine

Musician Michell Kwan plays a brilliant cover of Guns N’ Roses classic Sweet Child o’ Mine on her Guzheng – a traditional Chinese string instrument that dates back to the 5th century BC. We can almost hear Axl’s singing along.
