I just found out that Ella had worked with Slash on her ninth album in 1999. Are you fucking kidding me? SLASH PEOPLE!
Oh my god. Motherfucking sick guitar player, Slash! I nearly fell from my chair.
I have been a fan of his then band, Guns N' Roses and of course his sick guitar playing since I was 5 years old! Axl Rose was my ultimate crush back then. No seriously, he was hot when he was younger. That super soft long hair had me. Ha ha.
Growing up, I realized my celebrities crushes were not all boybandish types, whatever that means. I grew up liking
Axl Rose from
Guns N' Roses, I thought
Amy Search and
Jon Bon Jovi were somehow appealing and then when I was 11, I had a huge crush on
Damon Albarn from
Blur. That same year, I also started listening to
No doubt and looked up to
Gwen Stefani. You have no idea how much I love her, although I prefered her better with the band than her solo stuff. She was the first ever female celebrity I looked up to.
Now, I wanna show you some of my favorite classic rock videos/songs. But to my dismay,
my most favorite classic rock video of all time "wasn't available in my country" according to youtube. Can you believe that November Rain by Guns N' Roses wasn't available?!?!!!?! Fuck fuck fuck. I fucking love that video.
UGH. Well, at least they have Slash guitar solo of November Rain (see above). I'll Be There For You and Always both by Bon Jovi wasn't available as well. So here's Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen and Don't Cry by Guns N' Roses. Enjoy rockers.
If you guys don't know, or worst, have not heard these classic rock songs then you should just shoot yourself in the head and be better off dead. Seriously, I mean, come on. How can anyone not know these fucking good old classic rock songs? They're such legends.
I really need to thank my brother for the exposure of these rock bands and songs. And of course, my parents for the 10 year gap between my brother and me. So while he was in his teens playing skateboard and listening to rock bands, little did he know he had influenced his little kid sister. Heh.
love,
nadiotz.
Sakina, if you're reading this, all this talk about long hair rockers made me think about my abang awie la! I wonder how he's doing and if he's still in the force and such. God, I miss that face.
