Guns N' Roses Rocked Song Charts – Is It Because of 'Thor: Love and Thunder'?

Thanks to Taika Watiti's genius in "Thor: Love and Thunder," Guns N' Roses songs are making their way back to rock charts after a long while.

The rock-song-filled Marvel movie has featured a handful of Guns N' Roses hits, including "Paradise City," "Jungle," "November Rain," and "Sweet Child of Mine."

Coinciding at the week of its release, GNR's "Paradise City" got a thrilling cover from over 1,000 rock musicians in Paris.

Since "Thor: Love and Thunder's" release last Jul. 8, 2022, fans of the Norse god have been blasting Guns N' Roses non-stop after watching the whole flick.

The fourth Thor movie in the Marvel Cinematic Universe has prominently featured the songs made by the Axl Rose-fronted band.

In its trailer posted a month ago, an epic instrumental version of "Sweet Child of Mine" was used, and so was in the film.

Aside from the 1987 classic hit, "Paradise City," "Welcome To The Jungle," and "November Rain" was also included.

And since its inclusion, the tracks saw a massive surge on various Billboard Rock charts.
