re: Why wasn't "You Could Be Mine" a bigger hit for GNR?

If I recall, that became their first single during the summer of '91. I thought it was big. Think back to how big T2 was.
I think GNR just made a shite ton of videos off of those albums. 6 months later, "Don't Cry" got huge...6 months after that it became "November Rain"...then "Estranged". Of all of the videos they did in that damn near 3 year period, I'd say "You Could Be Mine" was their 4th biggest. Throw in all of the others: "Garden of Eden", "Live and Let Die", "Yesterdays"...all they did was make videos.

Because the albums weren't out yet. You Could Be Mine came out in summer of 91, and Use Your Illusions came out in September. So it never felt like it was part of the record, it was an appetizer to market Terminator 2.

They were huge '91-'93. The tours, the albums, the videos. Wish they would have kept it going together.
