  • Look in the real video from guns n roses Vevo And pauze it o 9:08

  • I don't care how the bride died. I want to know why the hell the dude at 1:14 jumped through the cake.

  • slash shot her!!!! love triangle ...

  • what about acid rain

    

  • Maybe the gun shop refers that Axl is feeling guilty, like he's the blame in her suicide..

  • sometime after the weeding in the car the bride looked so sad as if she knew a lethal fact. maybe she knew she was going to die soon of some sickness?

  • i think the sad look in the car reflects "when i look into your eyes i can see the love restrained" and the fact that she died reflects "cause nothing lasts forever".....also the concept of unrequited love goes with "your not the only one" like everybody has been or will be brokenhearted. This is not about Seymour, it's about Erin. It was with Erin that Axl had a fight over the gun in Don't Cry and November Rain is based on Without You which is based on Axl's and Erin's relationship.

  • @xxMrsRosexx  Credo che stai sbagliando , axl parla di Elizabeth dove si suicido' a casa sua da sola con un colpo di pistola ..

  • The first theory, it's the right one.

    I read "Without You", this video was based in it. So, in the story she kills herself ("just like in "November Rain") because he cheated on her (just like in "Don't Cry") and then he kills himself too because she's dead and he truly loved her (just like in "Estranged"). Any doubts? Just ask, I'm fanatic (;

  • @MrsBruh4 axl didn't kill himself in estranged!! he just tried but was saved the last moment by dolphins.

    i have read without you too. at first i felt deep disgust about this lifestyle of wanting to get high as soon as waking up but in the end i cried and kept telling myself it wasn't real and that erin and axl never died and stuff......

  • @xxMrsRosexx yeah, you're right :b

    but it's a great love story ♥

  • Dont cry in the begining axl goes to her with a gun, i think this is where she shoots herself

  • i think in the video somebody buy a gun and in the party he shot to the bride because all of the guys in the party get down on the tables and run and jump that is my opinion :D

  • I agree to the last theory

  • I think the bride never got killed...

    it's just a symbol of dying love

    don't look just at the video, listen to the lyrics

    it's a song about unrequited love

  • i think slash the ex-bf...after give the ring,slash go out from church and play solo guitar..to show slash feeling..in bar,slash cover his feeling when the bride sit besides slash..i think..cannot write english well..sorry..

  • IM Gonna Go with the 3rd Reason !!!!

  • maybe axl just thought it was a good way to end the video

  • here's a theory pretty farfetched

    The vid wasent about his bride maybe it was about the fact that the original band break up slash is always seen somewhat depressed and in the solo "you can use some time alone" (or something like that is repeated*

    and maybe however insane this sounds axl is mourning the original band being gone....

  • but that does not make sense...! this vid had made long before the original band broke up...

  • o XD like i said farfetched XD lol ty

  • The death occurred during the wedding because no one would run like what happened in the video. The "rain" is a sign of disaster and the spilled red wine clearly was blood shed.

    Conclusion is, the ex-lover of the bride shot her in the wedding. The mirror in the coffin was to cover up her unpleasant face after she dead.

    For the part Axl coming out of the Guns shop, its just the band's name and he needs some time on his own. That's all.

  • ur idea makes the most sense

  • Trust me, go back to the video, around 5:11 to 5:24. Ask yourself what the bride is looking at and why is she feeling sad from the look of her face.

  • No bride would be looking at the back of the car like how she did and with her expression tells it all.

  • Hi guys, i think i know what happened. Believe me, just go back to the video around 5:11 to 5:24. When bride entered the car, something caught her eyes. And at 5.23, you can tell from the look it probably was her ex-bf, when she closed her eyes sadly and looked at Axl to signal him that they could go.

  • yeah thats right !!!! they never wedding, it is never happened. axl is dreaming from the begin of video . maybe she is never died cause its all happened in mind of axl. probebly she is a dreamgirl from axl or an ex-girlfriend . its not easy to explain what really happened in this sad story but i like the song....

  • Axl's bride was a KISS fan and he wanted to surprise her with a KISS white gold ring that Gene Simmons had just brought out.He placed it in her piece of wedding cake so she'd bite on it to her surprise.Unfortunately,just as she was about to eat it,a paparrazi took a photo of the wedding party from an extended ladder tru the window from the outside of the room they were congregated in.Axl jumped up to deal with this.Meanwhile the bride chokes on the cake.Gene offered a discount on a KISS casket.

  • i think axl killed her cuz slash and her were secretly in love and she was unhappy with axl.. so he shoot her during the recepction---

  • She could well of been struck by lightning, I hadn't noticed that before.

    I also agree with leto1987.

    But November Rain is based on a short story, in which the bride shoots herself. I can't remember it off by heart, look it up.

  • another theory can be that the bride died before the wedding. because she is wearing a wedding dress in her coffin and this is something that only unmarried people do. we cannot say that they did not change her dress after the ceremony because she has been wearing a black dress during the reception. finally, we can say that it was an axl's dream because of the video and its very beginning as he took pills while drinking whisky.

  • another theory can be that they never got married.the bride is wearing a wedding dress in the coffin and only unmarried do that as also she has been wearing a black dress during the reception so its not because they could not change her dress after the wedding. I believe that she died before the wedding and as axl took pills while drinking whisky at the beginning of the video, he might had the dream of the wedding.

  • waiter in white kiled her. he had a gun below the saucer (with one hand he holding saucer and with other gun).when hi kiled her little boy poin on him (in real video) - just before the rain. so she was kiled and rain begins

    just mine opinion...

  • slash killed her. that's why slash left during the wedding. and at the end of the song where it goes "you're not the only one" that's for slash

  • for 9.99 ill email u the truth..i know i was there

  • ey tell us the truth then

  • HAHAHAHAHAHAHA XD

  • can't be bothered reading all the other opinions, but I'd always thought this.

    The song is about an unrequited love (he is on recored as saying this), or love moving to unrequitted love

    Therefore, in my opinion the death in the video is not an actual physical death but a metaphorical one; not just of the realtionship as it was, but as he wanted it to be.

    sorry if I've repeated someone elses comments

  • people, this video isnt made to have a specific way of death for his girlfreind... they want you to think about it and come up with your own solution. The album is made with the name ''Use Your Illusion''.

  • I and did I mention the videois made up

  • It's not a real story indel James's book wihout you the character's wife walks in on him screwin two hookers and is so depressed she shoots herself in the head

  • my theory is that she was sleeping with duff ( duff promised axls gf to keep the rings so that axl and the gf couldnt get married). The next day Duff reminded himself that axl was his best friend and gave the rings to slash who then had a fight with him. duff won the fight so he took the rings. and he went into a hibernation until the wedding day. then realised his faite at the last minute and gave the rings to slash. the gf realised she was betrayed and then commited scuicide in anger! aarrgghh

  • one problem with your theroy... slash would kick duffs ass!

  • wait a sec, is this true...or a story in the music video?

  • no this shit is not true!

  • dude, seriously?

  • I think she caught a severe case of clamidia from axl and his asshole tendencies drove her to death!!!!

  • Nobody has EVER been killed by lightning, unless it was a continuous occurance, meaning the lightning lasted more than 15 seconds. Which is practically impossible.

  • ok slashlover23, this song was made in the

    80's and the band broke up some time in the

    90's if slash killed axl's wife, why would axl even want slash in the band at all? Axl would have left the band if he found out slash killed his wife, and would then hate slash forever. not go on till like 1997 or someething making music with him

  • youre dumbass the song was not made inth 80's, it was made in the 90's

  • Actually, it was made in the eighties...Take a look around, you'll find lots of pre 1990 demo's. It wasnt released however, until '91.

  • and ive heard that Axl wrote it when he was 10. So maybe the 70's if thats true.

  • WTF are you talking about???

  • i think she killed herself cus she wasnt happy about marrying axl as u see in the opening of the second solo

  • She was a junky, and OD'd on smack.

  • i think lightning struk her. Seems like the best explination.

  • its based on the short story without you by del james

  • Hes right.

  • its good but the 2 theori has to be a refrence to the band because he also walks by a rose shop but what i see more intresting is if you look at the 3 songs don't cry november rain and enstranged in that order they tell a story. they say the songs were sposes to be an long orcastra 30 min

  • I think Axl killed her, that is why the video emphasise axl walking by the guns store i aint sure though...it make sense that november rain, dont cry, and estranged is a trilogy

  • Podría ser cualkiera de las tres ó no a saber...kizás algún dia nos enteremos,me encanta ésta canción y el video y la verdad es ke si me lo he preguntado

  • Slash killed her because he likes her and i think they were dating but i'm not sure. anyway Slash killes her because if he can't have her than no one can.. and he shoots her at there wedding right before the guy jumps over the table.. They don't show that in the movies anymore but my mom and dad and aunt said that that is what happens because they were around in the 80s. and anyway Slash kills her that's why at the end where it goes Everybody needs somebody You're not the only one is for Slash

  • the rain killed her, not the lightning. it was all symbolic, how can you people not see that?

  • I think it was all a dream, being the words keep changing, saying your not the only one, plus he was begging saying your not the only one, this could say he was cheating or had many other women besides her. Paul Australia Team

  • i think he masturbated on her face when she died

  • Thats the most retarded thing Ive heard in years.*Response to connor2431*

  • lol what the fuck

  • I Think She Shot Herself, Axl didn't, he did not because he just was walking by the gun shop.

  • I think axl shot her and lightning struck her :D

  • For one. You got almost every fucking word of that from Wikipedia. I think Axl Killed her with a gun from the Gun Store. It has been claimed that Axl made November Rain, Don't Cry and Estranged a trilogy. In don't cry Axl is sought after by the Swat Team and has a dream of when he killed her. In estranged, he commits attempted suicide out of grief. This is my conclusion.

  • la verdad nunca habia analizado el video desde este punto de vista, pero siempre pense que el video estaba relacionado a al libro "Without You", de Del James porque es lo que sale en el video, no he leido el libro, pero debe estar todo alli

  • i think axl killed her i aint sure though

  • axl in his past has been known to be "violent" so i think he killed her

  • how is that funny

  • lol...

  • how the fuck can you think som1 shootin themselves is funny? just answer me that. ur a giant assfucking shit eating cunt for that. burn in hell. GNR forever.

  • relax...i just laugh for struck by lightning

  • sry im just tired of people dissin gnr and just bein assholes on utube. and ur comment came rite after the shot herself one, so i just suspected....

  • it's ok =)

    GNR RULEZ

  • i reckon she shot herself, cos she was sick of axl immediately after the wedding... and who can blame the poor girl.

  • The last one is beleivable, but i think that during the rain, she fell off the balcony and died right there, and what are the odds of being struck by lightning anyway, huh?

  • yo en mi vida digo dos cosas, la primera......

    y la seginda

  • Well throughout the video

    you can see her face and sometimes

    she looks real sad

    so i thin kshe shot herself cause if u look closy at her face

  • the last theory is the most belivable

  • that was really cool!

  • okay. listen up pepl. at the end of the actual music vid it says that this plot was based on the short story "without you" by Del James. in the story the character that is the bride shot herself therefore Axl's bride shot herself. they chose Axl to play the main character cuz in the story the main character is skinny and has long strait blond hair.

  • When Guns made the videos incl, November rain, Estranged, Don' Cry, they wanted to make a short film that would peice all the videos together and sum it all up. there were to be more installments the band never could keep it together. No one other than the band will ever know what and why it happened. check out the other vids then try to figure out what happens, in estranged he was playing with a kid and was insitutionalized? many theories exist.

  • Okay me

  • For some reason I had always assumed that she fell during the storm while everyone was running around and the impact to her head killed her. I thought the split wine indicated blood, like a bad head injury.

  • ha, i love how slash needs no wires/amp to play the electric guitar. during his solos hes like "screw those things! i dont need that crap to play solos! those things are like freakin training wheels!"

  • she killed herself.

    Its in the story Axl based the song off of.

    ["Without You", Language of Fear, By Del James]

    Nice story, actually.

    <33

  • actually if i do recall this discribes that his wife was the victoria secrets model and that when it rains thats the down fall of their marrage but maby i read rong but and when he wlks alone its suppose to describe his first wifes death and him being left or maybe oj did shoot her like the other guy said lmao

  • lol at least i know why slash went outside. hes like "i have 2 choices right now. they are: 1. watch axl destroy his life by giving himself to ONE woman, instead of being a real rock star,

    OR

    2. i can celebrate my singleness with 4 or 5 bitches at my place. ill go with 2"

    then once hes outside hes like "im too tired to walk. ill just call the bitches to me with an insane solo. yea, thatll work" xD

  • lol

  • LOL!

  • LOL!

  • OJ killed her stupid.

  • you have too much time on your hands!

  • OOOHHH!!!! I never ever wondered what the video meant! ok. thanks for kinda, sorta clearing that up for me. lol XD

  • i think she shot her self but lightning strike could have worked cuz she was on a balcony whne she through the flowers

  • maybe head trauma do to lightning? idk

  • fourth reason : axl fucked to much

  • I think she shit herself.

  • Theory number one makes the most sense imo. Seeing the video is based on a short story where the famous person's girlfriend shot herself in the head.

  • Maybe I'm just stupid... but I always thought November Rain was about divorce, not death.

    The death in the video is a metaphore for the death of the marriage. His wife, although still techincally alive, is dead to him.

    It sounds like, to me, that their marriage is on the rocks. Axel keeps trying to tell her that they can get through it but she leaves him anyway.

    The rain at the reception represents how the good times went bad. Same for the broken cake, and the spilling of the wine.

  • Lol. You've been doing what your profesors tell you to do at college, which is actually not critical thinking.

  • Is this an insult? I hope not, because lines like:

    "'Cause nothin' lasts forever

    And we both know hearts can change"

    and

    "But lovers always come and lovers always go

    An no one's really sure who's lettin' go today

    Walking away"

    Make me believe this is about divorce, not death. The lyrics sure don't read like a song about suicide.

  • they have guns shop and they have a bouqet of roses = GNR

  • harry caray shot her!!!

  • if you want to have your own theories you must watch dont cry and estranged cauz they are fellowing of many thing(you know that when you see everything in commun)

    good luck@+

  • sorry correcting error made in my last comment november rain=water=fish=a shark could have eaten the other side of her face

  • warning: this commment is just something i can say to post a comment: november (rain)=wate=fish=a shark could have eaten the other side of her face

  • I doubt it was implying he murdered her because of the lyrics; I'm leaning towards her committing suicide because of the reference of not being true to herself and ignoring the urge to take some time alone or listen to her heart.

  • I always thought that she shot herself because she couldn't bear to tell Axl she didn't love him

  • the gun shop and the bouqet of roses GNR

  • maybe im the only person who remembers this but in the 90s the band said they were making a movie, and all the bizarre videos from use your illusion would make sense after you saw the movie. just imagine if pink floyd made a bunch of music videos for the wall, but never realeased the movie,,, thats the equivilent of the use your illusion videos

  • ill go with that last one.

    november rain= best solo ever

  • I think she could not handle being a wife and she shot herself....or maybe she had family trouble

  • I know ! I know ! Maybe she was allergic to water !

  • i think she killed herself for marring a retard who's with me

  • how did axl's bride die? i thought i was the only one asking this question through the years. until i got married 3 yrs ago and found out that my wife also had the same question which in fact seriously bothered her for years. so we settled that, axl's bride might have probably died because shes gotten ill due to heavy rains as shown during the reception. great song, great band.

  • yaeh i guess your right i was there at the funeral

  • hey HEY I JUST NOTICED SOMETHING!!!!!!

    AXL IS WEARING GLASSES. AT FIRST I THOUGHT THEY WERE SHADES BUT NO THOSE ARE GLASSES.

  • 23dpt, that was funny

  • she shot herself when she learned that Axl was indeed totally gay.

  • Creepy before I posted there where 666 comments.

  • If you look when the women first gets into the car after walking out of the church from being married to axl, she looks depressed. This could mean that she already knows that she is giong to die soon. It could be Cancer or sumthin long term. If u look at axl at this point he is looking as if he is enjoying himself so he obviously doesnt know...could be

  • I think Steve Adler did it.

  • i got the truth fellas...listen ..she was killed by the other woman she beated in the bar..of course...i got it !!!!!!!...was her amigos ,,,lol who else wouldnt want to see her and axel getting married or something like that ;) see?? orale vatos chotos !....lol

  • i could also be possible that axl is having a nightmare and was never married and they never got married, or maybe she died before the wedding and thats why he is so stressed out and cant sleep. The whole video except for the end is a dream. he cant sleep until he says a final goodbye.

  • u know showing him asleep has to be there for a reason they wouldn't just show it to kill time so i agree with you 100% and i think it was all a dream also and she could have died before the wedding

  • here in dallas the part about her shooting herself never got off the ground. When we(me and my friends) read the short story it really did'nt clear things up. well that is the story as it was being told here in Dallad texas. it is just one of thousands of theories. like the kennedy assination you never will know but it was good conversation for Rock and roll GNR fans. some of the other theries were that it was related to other videos from the same CD. that is all. stay cool. love ya  Z

  • PART 5 I will try to wrap this up. so axl is suffering from post tramatic stress syndrome. this is why he is waking up in a cold sweat and breathing hard. he realized he could'nt sleep so late at night he went to the grave and said his last goodbyes. the roses draining their color means that she blead to death. the part about the mirror in the coffin is as varried as every where else. the rainbow bar seen was just a memory and the concert seen was a memory too. part 6 maybe.

  • PART 4

    dudealex21, if axl had killed her he would not have been able to attend her funeral he would be in jail. anyway.... back at the start he is taking meds for his emotional pain and he goes to sleep, naturally he starts dreaming about the bride and the life that they had together (flashbacks) he starts tossing and turning and just starts to have fond dreams of the wedding day. the bride throwing the flowers,cutting the cake ect. the the rain and the shooting starts. Damn part 5.

  • PART III

    AS axl is leaving the church after the coffin notice he is wearing a cross that upside down. a well know symbol of disbelief in Jesus christ. that along with the statue of christ crying blood. anyway, the seen where everbody is at the funeral axl,slash,nor duff are at the grave sight cerimony( however you spell it)there is one person who looks like axl but that person is wearing a dress; wrong person. Axl is walking all over town in total guilt for not protecting his bride. PART 4 ?

  • i think that was axl that kill is wife

  • PART II

    When it started to rain that is when a sniper opened fire. note the people jumping over tables and under things. at first the people are running from the rain then they start running like hell. the bottle of wine spilled is a symbol lost promise as well as blood gushing. if axl had shot the bride he would not have been allowed to attend her funeral. be it an accident or not. Axl is stairing at the cealing and suffering thru the funeral.

    oop, there is gonna be a part II looks like.

  • god! im with no words amasing!

  • PART I READ THIS ONE FIRST Here I go with what was going around in Dallas. The seen at the start axl is believed to be taking meds(he was)this was to calm his nerves. the bride was killed at the recption,but not by axl or anyone else at the reception. There was a seen at the church when the bride was getting into the open lemo she jerks her head slightly as if she sees someone and old boyfriend,maybe. At the reception everyone is dancing and it starts to rain that is when someone...pt. 2

  • i would like to think that it was at the wedding and she got killed by hitting her head into something during the chaos(why there is red wine spilling)or that she was shot by a bullet that attracted a lighting bolt and then she hit her head on something and died

  • wow i never though some people would go to the trouble of making this. Your looking to far in to it and ruining a great song

  • guys stop fucking careing about this shit.. this is Axls life and all of you have no right to live it

  • If she was struck by lightning she wouldn't look that good in the casket.

  • sin palabras ... todas las teorias tienen sentido ...

  • OMF ok people I'm probably one of the biggest GnR fans out there. November Rain is literally my favorite song of all time, but my god you a digging WAY to far into this. It's a story with some truth to it, but the video is just a video people. Watch and enjoy it, don't destroy it by over analyzing it...

  • Yeah people who do are fucking bullshitting everyone else.

    People who really love Guns N' Roses don't go that deep into it. If you do your trying to expose the bad in them. If your a true fan please agree with kentij. He's fucking right, true fans love the band because they are the one, the only, GUNS N' ROSES!

  • Wow some of you GnR douchebags are looking waaay to far into this. My god, get a life. Please.

  • I know how she died during this.

  • WHAT?!!!!

  • She shot her self. It's in Axl's book.

  • in the real life??

  • No in the video that's why she's in the coffin cuz supposable. She was suppose to catch Axl in bed with another girl,so she killed herself in the video.

  • oh... :(

  • yes

  • she probably got tackled by the dude who jumped through the cake but that doesnt matter the only thing the fanscare about is the great song

  • haha

  • I think the last one is bullshit... the first one might be good... is it impossible to find the answer from axl or the director?

  • Nice job, never heard of the 3rd theory

  • It does make sense...it's based on a short story called 'without you' by del james. it even says that at the end of the video. The 'axl's bride' shoots herself in the head when the rockstar (axl) is caught having sex with two women.

  • okay man, that was great and all but seriously, I just think it's a song ya know, the videos never have to make sense. But the only thing I'm sure of...is that Slash looked soo hott in this video!!!!! ^-^

  • November Rain is a prequel to Without You

  • You're all wrong, she died of lung cancer, we see her smoking earlier in the video. Everyone knows that smoking kills instantly unless you're in a rock band

  • oh my ....

    i never realised... this much wisdom.

    you forgot one thing man the color of the rose fades at the end which means fake roses have led to an uprise in the price of the flowers....

  • it's just a video!

  • theories?? Theories?? THEORIES?? ARE YOU FUCKING JOKING?? THE VIDEO HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THE BAND (AXL) OTHER THEN THEY WERE IN IT. YOU FUCKING RETARDS!!

    The story "With out you" by Del James go read it! ASSUMING YOU CAN READ...It will explain everything...oh and by the way at the end of the video it says and i fucking quote (Based on a short story "Without you" by Del James)...HOWS THAT FOR A THEORIE

  • you're retarded JohnnyBanonymous, you are the one that probably cant read, especially the description on your right stupid dumbfuck

  • blah blah blah look i was like 8 when this video came out and i really couldn't tell u nore could i give a shyt how she died but my therory is that is metophoricile remember when AXL and that model i think this woman in the video got married but it only lasted a month like thyre marrage and relationship it just died.... boom they're ya go kiddies it took me since 1993 to figure this out for ya..... GNR 4EVER!

  • It was during the reception she died. They were cutting the cake when it started to rain. She then started to run w/ everyone else. The only thing is she had the knife and she fell and stabbed herself.

  • Axl Woudlnt kill anyone.

    He is too religous.

    Im 12 and I know that.

  • ...but he'd rape his girlfriend and tie her up in a wardrobe.

    Yeah that's fine.

  • u know,the first thing i noticed in this video is when the bride gets in the car with her bbig dress,her face is sooo saaaaaad ,like she just came from a funeral....so she must have had a guilty constious(sorry if i misspelled).maybe she was cheating and then she just killed herself ,later at the reception,she was wearing black,like she was prepared....hmm,i think.

  • i think the first thoery is true cuz she must have shot herself if she hid her face w/ a mirror good job noticing anyway

  • axel killed her cus she was cheatin on him with slash

  • did you notice that when she threw the flowers (that right there disproves the last theroy)they were white and when they hit the ground they where red

  • she might have died of lung cancer from smoking too much.

    ye you thought about that

  • slash was fucking her-axl killed her

  • This video is really fucking stupid.

    Everybody knows that the guns shop is because of their name and the thing of the lightning, oh please c'mon, it is pretty stupid.
