"One in a Million" is a song by American rock band Guns N' Roses.
 It is the eighth track on the album "G N' R Lies" and was released in 1988.
 The lyrics describe Guns N' Roses singer Axl Rose's experience of getting hustled in the Greyhound bus station upon first arriving in Los Angeles.
 The song is notable not only for its controversy, but also for being one of the first Guns N' Roses songs that Axl Rose wrote solo.
 According to interviews, Rose wrote "One in a Million" on guitar (with which he was not proficient at the time), using only the bottom two strings.
 This differs from other Rose-written Guns N' Roses songs, which Rose composed on piano or keyboards.
 This is the first Guns N' Roses song to feature piano, played by Rose on the outro.
