Guns N’ Roses return with a brand new single entitled “Perhaps” out now via Geffen Records. Written and recorded by Axl Rose, Slash, and Duff McKagan this year, it stands out as the legendary rock band’s first release since 2021. 7” includes another new song on the B-Side, “The General.”
Tracklist:
Side G: Perhaps
Side R: The GeneralLimit 4 per customer
May this indicate that Perhaps was written by Axl alone back in the day?
Or was it something written by them prior to Chinese Democracy sessions that Axl decided to use?
Remember Fortus said they did work on previous band's material.

I would recommend people to lower their expectations regarding The General
#15 Re: Guns N' Roses » If GNR releases nothing in 2023, is this the end for you? » 97 weeks ago
So that 96 album would have included:
This I Love
Oklahoma
Fall to Pieces
Back and Forth Again
The Rose Petalled Garden (BLS)And maybe Hard School & Down By The Ocean? Am I forgetting anything?
From It's Five O' Clock Somewhere:
Be the ball (Axl mentioned it)
Beggars and hangers on (Matt mentioned)
From Beautiful Disease
Put you back (co-written with Izzy)
Heard some rumblings about some of Izzy songs from 117, River and Concrete as well, but never had any more info.

Well now that you say it... We never heard The General, so only version we will probably hear is the finished version with slash, and I'm sure that will bring us new questions about it's original sound sins there is no way to compare it to early version.. So will you be contempt with just new version or will there be desire for original?
Absurd, aka Silkworms, is the closer example. Never have heard a studio version, just live and a very different structure.
So I was disappointed by the guitars and it had nothing to do with comparisons.
Anyway, let's hope the other reworked songs are being treated better by the hat man.
#17 Re: Guns N' Roses » Perhaps (2023) to Drop » 97 weeks ago
Listening to this stuff is bittersweet.
As I was listening...I could picture myself in my mid 20s cruising down McHenry in my old Camaro with the windows down blaring Perhaps....
Yet here I am staring down the barrel of 50 listening to a crude bootleg recorded at a fucking bar.
Yeah, feels the same (although I never had a Camaro and am reaching 42).
Having said that, and I never thought I would think this way, Slash is ruining the CD era songs. If it wasn't for the leaks we would never compare, but his contributions are boring, not inspired nor inspiring and just sound like a first take with no effort.
#18 Re: Guns N' Roses » Shallow » 99 weeks ago
This is not Axl singing.
#19 Re: Guns N' Roses » If GNR releases nothing in 2023, is this the end for you? » 104 weeks ago
It's time to lower the key in some songs.
There's no shame in that.
