Directed by Andy Morahan and one of the most expensive music videos ever made, the third single from “Use Your Illusion I” reached No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100 in early 1992.
“November Rain” – which was uploaded to the video platform in late 2009 – surpassed the 1 billion YouTube milestone in July of 2018, which means it racked up the first billion views in 9 years and the second in less than 5 years.
Last fall, Guns N’ Roses released a newly-recorded version of “November Rain” as part of a Super Deluxe Edition of the “Use Your Illusion I & II” box set; the track featured the inclusion of a 50-piece orchestra conducted and arranged by composer Christopher Lennertz.
Guns N’ Roses will headline the BST Hyde Park concert series for the very first time on Friday, June 30.
