November Rain

Axl Rose, the lead singer of Guns N Roses, worked on this one for 19 years. 19 years to bring out a 9 odd minute number. The music video of this song created an equal amount of buzz as the song itself . It is till date the 13th most expensive video. The song was conceptualized on a short story by Del James called "Without You" which is about a top rockstar reminiscing his times with his girl, which ended with the girl killing herself with a gunshot. The video of this song has amazing cinematography and the bride who dies, the protagonist's fiancee, wears a bridal gown which had then cost the band a staggering $8000. The video cost them a $1.5 million. So much hype. So much drama, about the drama. But in the end, all worth it! Enjoy!
