Release

The song was released on 22 July 2022.

In reference to the song, Louder Than War said "With its ringing guitars and electronic organ in the chorus, the song has a distinct Britpop flavour. Fittingly, the accompanying video induces nostalgia"[3]

Elsewhere, XS Noize said "Beginning all wiry and cracked, ‘Rosebud’ soon opens out into a stuttering Hammond organ riff, a pensive rhythm track and a lyric that regrets “most things I never finished”."[4]
