It’s axiomatic that if an entertainer lives long enough, no matter how dangerous they may have seemed at one point, they will do something kid-friendly. Think Randy Newman effectively becoming the Toy Story guy, Richard Pryor in The Muppet Movie, Ozzy Osbourne as the lovably befuddled dad of reality TV, and now Axl Rose creating his first original song release in a decade for a Looney Tunes short.Found via Vulture, this new number called “Rock the Rock” is performed by an animated Rose, with Bugs Bunny and friends serving as his band, in hopes of defeating a sentient asteroid with the power of hard rock music. Since Rose’s vocals served as the backdrop to saving the world from doom once before (in Terminator 2: Judgment Day), he must have seemed like the right guy to call. As he recently served a stint as AC/DC’s temporary frontman, the Guns N’ Roses icon has also proven he can work with different groups. Why not a rabbit and pig?
