The DOE of Northern Ireland uses 'Sweet Child O' Mine' by Guns N' Roses in their new PSA about road safety. It's a folk cover of the song, which I guess fits to an extent. 'Sweet Child o Mine' a love song about Axl Rose's girlfriend at the time, so I guess we can stretch this here and say 'oh they're using it as a metaphor of caring about someone!' Which is a lie. They used the song because it was 'child' in it and there are children in the video.
