Guns N' Roses have finally joined an elite group of artists whose albums have spent over 750 weeks on the Billboard 200 chart, a benchmark that only the most enduring and beloved records can achieve. The iconic band's compilation album 'Greatest Hits', which has long been one of the top-selling releases in America, reached this milestone recently.

While 'Greatest Hits' slipped to No. 133 on the Billboard 200, its continued success on streaming platforms has allowed it to remain relevant for decades. The album shifted nearly 10,000 equivalent units in the latest tracking period, with most of that activity coming from streams, although it also sold 1,000 copies.

This achievement is a testament to Guns N' Roses' enduring legacy and their ability to connect with audiences across generations. However, what's truly remarkable about this accomplishment is that 'Greatest Hits' has now spent an astonishing 750 weeks on the Billboard 200 chart, becoming only the eighth album to reach this milestone.

The likes of Pink Floyd's 'The Dark Side of the Moon', Bob Marley and the Wailers' 'Legend', Journey's 'Greatest Hits', Metallica's self-titled debut, Creedence Clearwater Revival's 'Chronicle: The 20 Greatest Hits', Eminem's 'Curtain Call: The Hits', Bruno Mars' 'Doo-Wops & Hooligans', and now Guns N' Roses' own compilation, have all spent over seven years on the chart.

With Nirvana's 'Nevermind' needing only two more weeks to join the club, it's clear that another iconic album will soon be joining this elite group. Michael Jackson's 'Thriller' is also likely to follow suit in 2026, further cementing its status as one of the most successful albums in history.

As for Guns N' Roses, their compilation continues to be a dominant force on several Billboard charts, including the Top Rock & Alternative Albums chart and the Top Hard Rock Albums list. The album's enduring popularity is a testament to the band's timeless music and the continued relevance of 'Greatest Hits'.
 
man that's crazy 750 weeks on the billboard 200 chart is like forever 🤯, i mean guns n roses' greatest hits is still going strong all these years later and it's not just the album sales but also streams are a huge part of its success. what's wild is to see other iconic albums join this elite group like pink floyd and bob marley too, it just goes to show how timeless music can be 🎸.
 
Man... 750 weeks on the Billboard 200? 🤯 That's like, a whole decade of being relevant in the music world! It's crazy to think that Guns N' Roses' compilation album has been a constant presence in people's lives for so long. I mean, what does this say about their music and their ability to connect with fans across generations? 🎸 It's like they're saying something profound about how music can transcend time and keep us feeling something deep inside.

For me, it's a reminder that success is not just about being popular or trending right now, but about leaving a lasting impact that people will still be talking about in 10 years. 💡 And Guns N' Roses has definitely done that. Their music may have been written decades ago, but it still speaks to us today.

It makes me wonder, what's the secret to creating something that can endure like this? Is it the passion and emotion behind the music? The message or story you're trying to convey? Whatever it is, I think we can all learn from Guns N' Roses' example.
 
I'm not sure how much I buy into this "milestone" thing... 750 weeks on the Billboard 200? That's a pretty arbitrary number, if you ask me. What even counts towards those weeks? Sales or streams? And what's with all these similar-sounding albums that are also reaching this benchmark? Like, is it really about the quality of music or just about how many people are still listening to your band 30 years after you last released new material? I'd love to see some actual data on what's driving this enduring popularity...
 
🤯 I'm not surprised that Guns N' Roses made it to this milestone, their music has always been super iconic and classic rock vibes never get old 😎. But what's crazy is how many albums have spent over 750 weeks on the chart... like, that's a whole lotta time in the game 🕰️. I mean, Nirvana's 'Nevermind' is so close to joining this club, it'll be interesting to see if it can follow suit 💥. And yeah, Michael Jackson's 'Thriller' is definitely due for some chart action - that album has been a cultural touchstone for decades 🎉. It's also making me think about the power of compilation albums... 'Greatest Hits' has clearly become an integral part of Guns N' Roses' legacy, and it's awesome to see how their music continues to resonate with fans across generations 👍
 
I mean, can you believe it? 750 weeks on the Billboard 200 chart?! That's like, an eternity for most albums! It's a testament to Guns N' Roses' legendary status and how their music still resonates with people today. I think what's even more impressive is that 'Greatest Hits' isn't just popular among the older generation; it's also got a new wave of fans who are discovering their music through streaming platforms 🤯.

It's crazy to think about all the other iconic albums that have reached this milestone, from Pink Floyd to Eminem. And now, Nirvana and Michael Jackson are closing in on joining the club! It just goes to show how timeless music can be. As a fan of classic rock, I'm stoked to see 'Greatest Hits' continue to slay the charts 🤘.

What's even more interesting is that this achievement says so much about the band's ability to connect with people across different generations and cultures. It's not just about the music itself; it's about the emotions, memories, and experiences that it evokes 💔. Guns N' Roses has truly created something special, and I'm honored to see their legacy continue to grow 💪.
 
Man I'm so stoked to see Guns N' Roses join that super exclusive crew on the Billboard 200, you know the ones that just keep getting played for decades? Like, 'Greatest Hits' slipping down to number 133 is crazy, but who cares when it's still racking up those streaming numbers and selling a few thousand copies. I mean, that's what we need more of - classic rock staying relevant. And 750 weeks on the chart? That's insane! The fact that Nirvana's 'Nevermind' is just two weeks away from joining the club is wild too, gotta get ready for some major nostalgia trip vibes in 2026 with Michael Jackson's 'Thriller'. I'm loving how Guns N' Roses keeps making it happen, their music transcends generations. 🤟
 
omg how does it feel to have a compilation album that old still selling like crazy? 10k units from streams alone is wild 🤯 i mean, most albums can't even get that with physical sales lol. but seriously, 750 weeks on the chart is insane. what's next? will they join the immortals or something? btw, have you listened to 'Greatest Hits' in ages? still one of my faves 💥
 
Man, can you believe it? GNR has finally joined that super exclusive club 🤯. I mean, 750 weeks on the Billboard 200 chart is just insane! It's like they're still making hits after all these years 😂. Their 'Greatest Hits' album is still going strong, and I'm not surprised - those songs never get old. It's a testament to Axl's songwriting skills and how well the band can connect with fans of all ages 🎸. I'm hyped that Nirvana's next album will join the club too! Do you think we'll see more classic bands making it into this elite group in the future? 🤔
 
Ugh, 750 weeks on the Billboard 200? That's just so... impressive 🙄. I mean, who wouldn't want to spend that kind of time in the music charts, am I right? It's not like there are more important things in life, like actually making new music or exploring different genres... Nope, let's just rehash the same old hits for decades and call it a day 🎸. And honestly, who needs originality when you can just rely on your "greatest hits" to carry you through? 🤷‍♀️
 
I'm so done with how long it's taking Nirvana's Nevermind to reach 750 weeks on the Billboard 200, I mean, come on, only two more weeks? 🤷‍♂️ It's like they're intentionally trying to prolong their dominance over other iconic albums. But at the same time, can we please celebrate Guns N' Roses for achieving this milestone with such an epic compilation album? I mean, 'Greatest Hits' is a beast of a record, but it's still pretty impressive that it's spent 750 weeks on the chart... wait, no, that's exactly what I'm saying, it's not impressive at all because then Nirvana's Nevermind will surpass it, and we'll have another new album joining the club. 🤯
 
I'm low-key stoked for Guns N' Roses 🤟‍♂️! 750 weeks on the Billboard 200 chart? That's insane 💥! It just goes to show that their iconic sound still resonates with people all over the world 🌎. I mean, who doesn't love some good ol' fashioned rock 'n' roll 🤘? And it's not just Guns N' Roses, other legendary bands like Pink Floyd and Metallica have also made it to this elite group 🙌. It'll be interesting to see which albums join the club next... maybe Nirvana's 'Nevermind'? Stranger things have happened 😂!
 
🤘 I mean, 750 weeks is crazy! That's like, almost two decades worth of continuous airplay and sales 📊. It just goes to show that Guns N' Roses has created music that transcends generations 🎸. I'm not surprised they're up there with the likes of Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin - their raw energy and Axl's signature wail are still giving us chills 😲. It's not just about the hits, though; it's the entire discography that's held up so well over the years 🎶. Can't wait to see Nirvana join them soon 👊
 
so its been 750 weeks since greatest hits came out and people still listening to it thats wild 🤯 i mean, we can all agree that some songs dont stand the test of time but this album has been on repeat for decades what keeps it popular is probably the fact that we can just listen to one song at a time and skip to the good stuff like sweet child o' mine 😂
 
You know what this says about our music ecosystem? It's all about the algorithm 🤔. I mean, 10,000 equivalent units from streams only? That's some serious engagement! But it also raises questions about the value we place on music in today's digital age. Are we prioritizing playlists over pure album sales? Is that what's driving this longevity? It feels like a chicken-and-egg problem: do streaming platforms keep artists alive, or do they create a new way of measuring success?

And can't help but think about the politicians who claim to support the arts... if they're not careful, they'll be talking about 'Greatest Hits' as the face of America's music scene 😏. Maybe it's time for them to pay attention to what we're listening to and how we're consuming it?
 
I'm low-key obsessed with how Guns N' Roses' Greatest Hits has managed to maintain its relevance all these years 🤯! I mean, 750 weeks on the Billboard 200 chart? That's insane! The way it seamlessly blends old-school rock vibes with modern streaming numbers is like a masterclass in album longevity 📈. And can we talk about how this achievement solidifies their place in music history? It's not just about the sales figures, but about the impact they've had on generations of fans 🎸.

On a personal level, I love that 'Greatest Hits' is still pushing boundaries on streaming platforms – it's like they're breaking down barriers and defying time ⏰. What's also fascinating is how this accomplishment brings back memories for people who grew up listening to the album, and now their kids are discovering it too 👫.

Anyway, I'm just gonna go lay out my vinyl collection in a neat grid layout right now...
 
man thats crazy guns n roses are legends lol theyve been makin history for years with their iconic songs like sweet child o mine & November rain 🤟 still gettin played on the radio after all these yrs its clear why "greatest hits" is so successful, their music just dont fade away 💯
 
The fact that Guns N' Roses' compilation album has spent over 750 weeks on the Billboard 200 chart just goes to show how well our country values longevity and consistency in entertainment. I mean, think about it - what other industry can claim to have an album that's still breaking records decades after its release? It's like we're rewarding artists who can create something truly timeless, rather than chasing fleeting trends.

And let's be real, this milestone is also a testament to the power of music in bringing people together. I mean, it's not just about the band's music itself, but about how it resonates with audiences across generations and geographical lines. It's like we're saying that our culture values the kind of art that can transcend time and touch hearts.

But what does this say about our entertainment industry as a whole? Are we creating more albums that are going to stand the test of time, or are we just churning out quick hits that will be forgotten in a year? It's like we're having a national conversation about what kind of art matters. 💡
