"Wild Guess" is a song recorded by Australian singer-songwriter, Ruel. It was released on 26 September 2025 through Recess Records and Giant Music, as the third single from his second studio album, Kicking My Feet.
The song was written by Ruel Van Dijk, Leroy Clampitt, and Dan Wilson, with the latter two serving as the song producers. On an interview with Sian Eleri for BBC Radio 1, Van Dijk shared his thoughts on the song:
Van Dijk premiered the song on BBC Radio 1's Future Artists with Sian Eleri in late September, 2025. A saloon version was released on 14 November 2025 to further promote the track.
A music video directed by Jackie! Zhou was released on 16 October 2025. The video depicts the production of a Western-themed film that experiences behind-the-scenes difficulties, as the co-stars, portrayed by Van Dijk and American actress and comedian Mary Beth Barone, are unable to get along.
About working with Van Dijk, Barone commented that "Ruel is a total professional and very kind so maybe the youth really will save us." An official behind-the-scenes video was released on 24 October 2025.
