The story behind the sex scene in that song is f*cking great.

Quote:
It has also been said that Rose brought a woman, Adriana Smith, to the studio for recording. Steve Thompson, an engineer on the album, said the following in an interview:

"Axl wanted some pornographic sounds on Rocket Queen, so he brought a girl in and they had sex in the studio. We wound up recording about 30 minutes of sex noises. If you listen to the break on Rocket Queen it's in there."

It was later stated in the music magazine Classic Rock, as well as Rolling Stone, that the person who had been recorded performing sex noises on the song was Adriana Smith, an on-off girlfriend of drummer Steven Adler who also allegedly had an intimate relationship with frontman Rose.

I voted "Sweet Child" as their best original song, but there rendition of "Live & Let Die" is my favorite of theirs.

Although I've listened to November rain, welcome to the jungle and civil war more than anything other song of theirs, I have to say paradise city gets my vote for being the most catchy!
Just that, for some reason i never couldn't find that song on my comp...had to youtube it all the time

Sweet Child o' Mine has a nice riff that made it famous, but is not the best written. I think Paradise City or November Rain wins best written
