I was 12 when it came out. The first time I heard it was in the movie "The Dead Pool", the 2nd time was at Riverfront....which they had just started calling The Jungle I think. It was my first NFL game too. Perfect fit for this team.
Exactly. I think the song (and most of GnR's stuff) has aged incredibly well. They weren't a hair group. Their music was much edgier than that, and it still slaps. I don't listen to Guns or that song very often, but when I do it still gives me chills. That's when you know it's a banger.

It sounds kind of dated.
Right on. Since when do we have to replace songs? Great songs are timeless.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
