'Sweet Child O' Mine' - the first '80s video to reach a billion views

Classic video 'Sweet Child O' Mine' by the Guns N' Roses is the first '80s music video to reach a billion views on YouTube, Loudwire reports. The video shows the band performing the track in front of their bullet logo, with cutscenes of the members' girlfriends. It was written by Rose about his ex-wife Erin Everly — model and daughter of Don Everly of the Everly Brothers. It's also the onscreen debut of Axl Rose's signature snake dance. The runner-up for the '80s is A-ha with 'Take on Me'.
