I think the best song on the album is "Welcome To The Jungle". Also, the guitar solo in Sweet Child O' Mine is really great. It hits so hard, it makes you feel like you're incredible and can do anything. Also, the combination of the guitarist's chiming 'circus theme' intro, Izzy's bold open chords and loving-struck poetry, is like musical alchemy with pure sunshine.
