"Rocket queen" was inspired by a riff I came up with when I first met Duff. It was one of the more complicated arrangements on what became our album, mostly because we had to integrate the riff with Axl´s more melodic chorus. The song is based on our mutual friend Barbie, who even at eighteen had a notorious reputation. She was a drug addict and a queen of the underground scene back then. She´d eventually become a madam, but Axl was infatuated with her at the time. I hear she has managed to survive after all these years.
