10 Most Underrated Guns N' Roses Songs

10. Nice Boys - GNR Lies

What made GNR stick out from the pack back in the day was just how much of a shock they were to the rest of the bands on the Strip. Whereas most of the bands making a name for themselves at the time were Whitesnake and Winger, hearing these guys strip everything back to straight rock and roll felt totally original at the time. Then again, even the best have to take it from somewhere though.

Eventually being packaged with the famous acoustic EP GNR Lies, Nice Boys is a live cover of a famous song by the band Rose Tattoo. Even though most of the groups like Aerosmith are the clear inspiration for Guns, this pseudo glam rock song fits them like a glove, with Axl putting on his best snotty vocals to really sell the point of this song.

This also has got to be one of the more underrated performances by Steven Adler, showing just the right amount of rhythmic magic that made Appetite for Destruction so infectious back in the day. Above all else, this was the record that was more about Guns playing to their strengths rather than going for broke on the more ambitious stuff. So you've got a kickass song...one of the band's greatest performances...and a new band to check out after you're finished with this song. It's basically the hard rock gift that keeps on giving.
