Guns N' Roses have quite a few millions to their name, but this new record puts them in the billions.
One of the band's biggest hits, "Sweet Child O' Mine," now has the distinction of being the first music video from the 1980s to reach the 1 billion views mark on YouTube. Which is crazy, because their video for "November Rain" was the first music video from the 1990s to reach that benchmark. Let's revisit them both and keep pumping those numbers up.
