Greatest Hits


Greatest Hits is a compilation album by American hard rock band Guns N' Roses. The album was released on March 23, 2004. It hit #1 in the UK and #3 in the US.Despite some criticisms towards the track listing by fans (even Axl Rose and ex-Guns N' Roses members, who filed a joint lawsuit to try to prevent the release of the album), the album has proven a popular seller, selling 4 million copies in the U.S. to date. Greatest Hits became Guns N' Roses second-longest charting album in their homeland (after Appetite for Destruction), finally dropping out of the Billboard 200 chart in November 2006 following a 138-week stay.[3] Universal Records' response to Rose's opposition to the record was that he had been given adequate time to supply them with a record but had failed to do so, and so they had produced their own Guns N' Roses record instead.

Critics of the compilation were somewhat disappointed, as many other popular songs from Appetite for Destruction were neglected from this release, including "Mr. Brownstone", "It's So Easy" and "Nightrain", as well as the G N' R Lies track "Used to Love Her". Also notable is the exclusion of the Use Your Illusion II single "Estranged".
