10 Metal Albums With ONE Bad Song
2. My World - Guns N Roses
Taking on the Use Your Illusion albums in one sitting is quite the undertaking for any rock fan. Along with seeing some of the best songs that Guns N Roses have to offer, you also have to realize that this practically captures the band falling apart, as Slash tries to hold onto his rock star cred while Axl Rose tries on his best Elton John impression on some of the songs.
Though Axl is a man of many talents, industrial rock is not one of them if My World is any indication.
Right as we reach the end of the second installment, the last minute of the album is nothing but a piss take that Axl did, presumably while he was under the influence of magic mushrooms. You probably need some potent to even understand something like this too, considering half of it is just Axl acting like some big tough guy looking to tear you to pieces if you decide to step into his world.
Hell, even the band weren't completely on board with this little bit, with some of them not even being aware that the song made the album until they attended the final mixing sessions. The Use Your Illusion projects already tend to have a few nutty songs in between them, but My World is when you reach the point of no return. After this, you knew that Guns N Roses (read as: Axl) were really starting to lose their sanity.
