"Perhaps" is a song by the American hard rock band Guns N' Roses, released as a single on August 18, 2023.[2][3] A limited edition 7-inch vinyl, with "The General" as its "R-side", was originally scheduled to be released on October 27, 2023 but the release was postponed to December 8, 2023.[4][1] Like the band's previous two singles, "Absurd" and "Hard Skool", the origins of this song date back to the writing and recording process of Chinese Democracy from the late 1990s.[5]

Transcription

Background

"Perhaps" was originally recorded during the Chinese Democracy sessions in 2000, and was leaked online in 2019 alongside other tracks from the same era.[5]

The song was rehearsed at the soundcheck for the Tel Aviv concert on June 5, 2023, and again before the band's Glasgow concert on June 27, 2023.[6][7] Prior to the release, the song was leaked through digital jukeboxes in bars across the United States.[8] The song features drumming from former band member Brain.[9]

"Perhaps" was first played live on August 18, 2023, at PNC Park in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.[10]

The music video for the song shows footage of the band live and backstage during the European leg of the 2023 Tour.[11]

The single's "R-side" "The General", which was also originally conceived during the Chinese Democracy sessions, was performed live for the first time at The Hollywood Bowl on November 2, 2023.[12] It was released on streaming platforms on December 8, 2023.[13] The song features former Guns N’ Roses members Brain and Chris Pitman as well as composer Marco Beltrami and guitarist Marc Haggard.[14] A partially AI-generated music video for the track was released on January 24, 2024.[15]

Reception

Rolling Stone called the piano-driven track good and described it as being "mid-tempo rocker in the vein of Use Your Illusion II's more mellow "Yesterdays" or Chinese Democracy’s standout "Catcher in the Rye"".[16] In its positive review, Billboard described the song as "a twisty, turgid ballad" featuring "a piano-pounding riff", "Rose's signature howl" and "one of Slash's classic hurricane solos".[17]
