Millamoor is absolutely right. This is a Greatest Hits album.... Not a best of. All of you "hardcore" Guns N' Roses fans who appear to think you're a cut above the rest of the music fans who like Guns N' Roses are moaning about something that you've got completely wrong. And if you're all so "hardcore" then you should have all the albums anyway, with all the songs on that would be on a best of, therefore rendering another album useless. People like you annoy me. Basically rating something as bad due to your pretentious and "high and mighty" views on music.

Since this album is called GREATEST HITS it can come as no surprise to fans or haters that the songs on the album is indeed the hits. Not the unknown songs that fans might believe are the best that this band gave us, but simply the songs that made GNR the biggest rockband in their time. I'm no big fan of Axls voice but the music and the songs are strong and you can't help but sing along to several of them.

For those of us fortunate (and rare) enough to call ourselves real Guns fans, this album stands supreme as one of the greatest insults available on the shop shelves. What you are buying is a commercial hits package; which is fine if you're buying Abba albums. But the songs and music that made Guns N' Roses one of the most influential bands in rock history is NOT on this album. What you are given here is a platter of lukewarm mediocrity. Where is the spine tingling brilliance of 'Coma'? And the eerie melody of 'Estranged'? Where is the in-your-face badness of 'Rocket Queen'?! Please. For the sake of your musical integrity. Go out and buy their albums individually, and close the window on this travesty of a money-making cash cow. You will find no brilliance here, except perhaps something to give to a 12 year old nu-metal nerd. Don't buy this. Please. I'm begging you. It's an insult to the human ear.
