. Discography » Videography » Sweet Child O' Mine

"Sweet Child O' Mine" starts out with the now classic scene of Slash plugging in his guitar. The video is a potent no-frills perfomance of the song with the band giving it their all in a warehouse with cables, cameras and crew in view. Also in view are the guy's girlfriends (in Duff's case, wife) hanging out and interacting with their respective sweeties, especially Axl's Erin Everly, the actual subject of the song.

Color and black and white images alternate. Steven dances with a woman, Izzy pets a dog, Axl kisses Erin. The action builds along with the song: Axl stomps around, swinging the mic cord. Izzy windmills guitar chords, Slash coolly but passionately rips out one of his most breathtaking solos.
