Elusive Guns N’ Roses Track “Perhaps” Surfaces on Unexpected Platform
In a twist that defies the norm for leaked songs, the elusive Guns N’ Roses track “Perhaps” has taken an unconventional route to reach fans. The recently hyped song made an unexpected appearance on TouchTunes machines, scattered across bars and various locations throughout the U.S. Over the weekend, fortunate fans seized the opportunity to catch a sneak peek of the song through these unusual channels.
According to reports buzzing across social media platforms, the intriguing new Guns N’ Roses track, “Perhaps,” emerged within the selection of music available on these TouchTunes machines. Displaying the song’s cover artwork and appropriately attributed to the band’s record label, Geffen Records, this intriguing leak left fans both surprised and thrilled.
The revelation comes at a time when speculation about a potential new Guns N’ Roses release has been intensifying. Just last month, a credible source from within the band’s circle confirmed the impending arrival of new music. A tantalizing hint from Universal Music hinted at an August 11 pre-save date, sparking expectations that “Perhaps” would make its official debut on that day. However, the anticipated release date passed without the promised song. Nevertheless, fans were in for an unexpected treat as the track inadvertently found its way to the public through the TouchTones machines on Saturday, August 12.
As of now, it remains uncertain whether the song continues to be accessible through the TouchTunes machines. Regardless, some dedicated fans were fortunate enough to catch an early glimpse of the studio version, savoring the unique opportunity.
“Perhaps” joins the ranks of previously leaked tracks like “Absurd” and “Hard Skool,” originating from the elusive Chinese Democracy era, which never saw an official recording. The buzz around “Perhaps” started gaining momentum back in June when the band’s soundcheck in Tel Aviv unveiled a clear preview of the song. Since then, the anticipation has been palpable, with fans eagerly awaiting its inclusion in the band’s setlist. Regrettably, the track is yet to make its grand entrance.
While the release of “Perhaps” continues to hang in the balance, devoted fans may want to take note of Guns N’ Roses’ upcoming shows in East Rutherford, New Jersey (Tuesday), and Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania (Friday). Following the pattern established by their most recent song releases, the band has introduced new tracks during their live performances before officially releasing them. Stay updated on all Guns N’ Roses tour dates right here.
