"Think About You" is the eighth track on Guns N' Roses' debut album Appetite for Destruction. The song is lyrically similar to "Sweet Child o' Mine" (which it precedes on the album). "Think About You" was, however, written by Izzy Stradlin. The song begins with a very fast tempo and keeps up the pace until 29 seconds from the end. The end features a haunting riff that is almost entirely different from the rest of the song that slows the tempo dramatically.
[edit] Live
"Think About You" was played very frequently during early Guns N' Roses shows in 1985 and 1986, however, it was never played again until 2001. It was frequently played in 2002 and occasionally played in 2006, with former rhythm guitarist Izzy Stradlin joining the band for a few performances. It has not been performed on the 2009/2010 tour.

[edit] Notes
- ^ (Davis 2008, p. 165), "This heavy-metal tenderness extends into 'Think About You,' in which a cowbell starts a jet-fueled rocker about the infatuation of early love and shared moments of bliss."
