Guns N' Roses' "Paradise City" was not only included on the official soundtrack of "Thor: Love and Thunder," but it also got an exciting cover from a thousand rock musicians.
The artists collective Rockin' 1000 performed the Guns N' Roses classic hit on their eighth birthday celebration concert at Paris' Stade de France.
Guns N' Roses Gets Thrilling Homage From Rockin' 1000
Dubbed as one of Guns N' Roses' best songs of all time - "Paradise City" was used in two different settings in the past week - in a movie and at a huge concert.
Rockin' 1000 is an international artist collective from 25 countries worldwide, and on their eighth anniversary celebration, they performed the rock classic in front of a live audience for the first time.
The massive performance featured rock musicians, including drummers, bassists, pianists, guitarists, and vocalists, to give the Guns N' Roses song a thrilling cover.
"Paradise City" was also prominently featured on Disney Marvel's "Thor: Love and Thunder," which was released on the same day.
Along with "Sweet Child of Mine," "Welcome to the Jungle," and "November Rain," "Paradise City" was featured on the fourth solo Thor film under Disney.
The "Paradise City" inclusion on "Thor: Love and Thunder" and its Rockin'1000 performance upped the streaming views on the track on YouTube.
The track peaked at No. 5 on the Billboard Hot 100 charts, while it ranked No. 6 on the UK Singles Chart.

Earlier this month, Guns N' Roses canceled their Glasgow show after frontman Axl Rose after being advised by his doctors to take some vocal rest.
As a result, the band was forced to cancel their Glasgow show. However, their show in Munich on July 8, the same day of Thor's US release and Rockin' 1000 performance, proceeded as planned.
Who is Rockin' 1000?
The international artist collective was formed in July 2015 in Italy in an attempt to ask the Rock band Foo Fighters to perform in their town in Cesena, Italy.
To date, the Rockin' 1000 is dubbed as the "biggest band in the world," composed of hundreds of vocalists, drummers, pianists, and bassists, among many others.
Earlier this year, one of the band's performances went viral - their "My Hero" tribute to the late Foo Fighters drummer Taylor Hawkins.
The band also performed at the Eurovision 2022 Finale opening number, which was held live in Turin, Italy.
