Guns N’ Roses – Welcome to the Jungle (Official Video)
Video info
| Band | Guns N’Roses |
| Date | 28/09/1987 |
| Album | Appetite for Destruction |
| Description | The video of this song (directed by Nigel Dick) begins with a shot of Axl Rose disembarking a bus in Los Angeles and a drug dealer (portrayed by Izzy) is seen trying to sell his merchandise while Rose rejects it. As Rose stops to watch a television through a store window, clips of the band playing live can be seen and Slash can also be seen briefly, sitting against the store’s wall and drinking from a clear glass bottle in a brown paper bag. By the end of the video Rose has transformed into a city punk, wearing the appropriate clothing, after going through a process similar to the Ludovico technique. During an interview with Rolling Stone magazine, Alan Niven said that he “came up with the idea of stealing from three movies: Midnight Cowboy, The Man Who Fell to Earth and A Clockwork Orange.” |
