November Rain was #7 on Q Magazine's list of the 50 Best Videos Ever:
7 Guns N' Roses November Rain [1992] Hair metal soap opera.
Plot: With Axl Rose putting in a good performance as the groom to supermodel and real-life squeeze Stephanie Seymour's bride, the wedding day is ruined by that pesky November Rain and the untimely death of Rose's wife.

Behind The Scenes: The plot comes from a short story called Without You by Del James.
