Re: The General confirmed next
The Perhaps video is about a 100k views away from overtaking Hardskool which was posted 2 years ago. That's not bad going in a short space of time. It's hard to say if that's down to people prefering the song or the fact it has a proper video, likely both.
Can't see a B-side having a video but if there is any truth to the Atlas thing then they would be stupid not to have a video for that.

I just checked...4.1 million.
They have 11 million subscribers.
Stones 'Angry' video has 17 million.
They have 3 million subscribers.
Metallica's Lux Aeterna has 20 million.
They have 10 million subscribers.
That's an insane statistic. GNR have difficulty getting a third of their own subscribers to watch their first official video in decades. It's obviously much less because a portion of those views will be casuals and non-fans checking it out when it was briefly trending.
They need to fix this issue because it's an anomaly among major acts.
Yeah... we're not getting a video for The General. Its release is too low key. They don't seem to care.

Re: The General confirmed next
Apropos of nothing, does it seem confusing that Absurd and Hard Skool changed their working titles but Perhaps and The General haven’t? Does that mean anything for writing credits or something?

I doubt it, it's probably nothing more than the "familiar" titles being working ones, like The Blues.

Re: The General confirmed next
Not a bad list... basically a box set of demos.
I was hoping Big Trouble was an early version of Roth's Big Trouble...didn't know there was an old VH demo with the title.
I want alt takes/demos of Drop Dead Legs and I'll Wait....my two favorite VH songs...I also want that early 82 version of Jump before Roth added the crappy lyrics.
Maybe we'll get those next.
Street of Dreams is such a cheesy title. What was he thinking.
It was almost Stardust until it got changed to Street of Dreams at the last second.
