Gunsdrummer63 Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 Does the start of the guitar solo from 1:40-1:45 sound like something else? The catcher solo? Did they just splice it and put it in Catcher? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downzy Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 It's difficult to evaluate Pressure since State of Grace was "released" the same day. For me the ideas behind State of Grace are stronger. It builds. The instrumentals in Perhaps are great. Really like the guitar and piano work. The chorus has a nice feverish pitch and tempo to it. The rest is kind of meh for me. I really don't like the "hey, hey, heys" between versus lines. The melody just kind of meanders and doesn't really grab me. As I was discussing with some of the admin/mod staff, it's not a bad song, but if this were on the Illusions albums it would have been a skip most of the time. But again, perhaps I'm not giving it a fair shake because State of Grace speaks to what I like in songwriting. Catchy hooks and songs that build. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The leaker seems to have made cuts. One for sure was made during the first chorus, at about 1:34, but it is less than a second. Why? I couldn't tell ya. A second cut could have been made at the beginning of the solo section, but I can't be sure without looking at it with a magnifying glass. I suspect the other missing time is likely fade out at the end, or dead space at the beginning. Could be wrong, but the start and finish sounds were awfully close to 0:00 and the very end. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did not like any of it really. Perhaps just has the epic feel to it. with some minor tweaks, this could be a major it.

TheSeeker Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 99% sure I heard the phrase "State of Grace" a couple times in the lyrics so now there's doubt in my mind that "Perhaps" is the correct title for this track Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Axl really wanted him to be involved long term but Brian didn't want to be involved any more than contributing to a few tracks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSeeker Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 Anyone else hear the "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road" similarities? It's crazy that we've now confirmed that Axl has played "This I Love", "Atlas Shrugged" and "Prostitute" as November Rain intros - maybe he's been playing "Perhaps" for the past few years and we all just assumed it was "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road"?

This is the thing I've always said about Queen. You listen to pretty much any song, the guitar work and especially the solo is perfectly suited for the song, every time. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arnuld Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 Love the piano breakdown Coda. Fuck Axl just makes the best songs. I wish the GNR catalog had 20 LPs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what I have always maintained about Slash actually, every single solo of his fits that particular song perfectly and his talent for that is unsurpassed !
