3. Guns N’ Roses – Sweet Child o’ Mine
“Sweet Child o’ Mine” might have been released over 3 decades ago, but it’s still one of the greatest songs of all time. An unbelievable fact about the song is that it was composed unrehearsed.

Steven Adler and Slash were jamming, when Izzy Stradlin liked what they were doing and joined in, right before Duff McKagan gave the song its bass line. Axl Rose, who wasn’t even present on the same floor, liked the music so much he instantly got his writing pad out. However, Axl had the true inspiration for the song which was his then-girlfriend, Erin Everly.
