I now tried with "Estranged remastered," and as soon as I started typing "remastered" irrelevant results started popping up and GN'R went away. Thanks. I'm leaning more and more towards there being something going on now....but whether anything will come to fruition is another matter. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DefinitelyInThisLifetime Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 Has anyone tried Stay Of Execution, any of the rumoured titled songs, or are we still all thinking something is happening. Because it really isn’t, to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh without a doubt. It’s not real until it drops, or officially announced (which looks to be probably coinciding with the surprise release itself). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweersa Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 I'm finally getting results in the US. "atlas shrugged" under Songs shows Absurd as second in the results list. When my girlfriend searched on her phone, she got Guns N' Roses as a top result for the same search under artists, when I didn't. When she searches again, she doesn't see GN'R. Interesting. I get nothing for The General or State Of Grace. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackstar Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 (edited) I set the VPN to Brazil and searched from the browser (not logged in on Spotify) and it's crazy. Almost all the songs GN'R have covered (The Seeker, Walk All Over You, Back In Black etc.) return GN'R results (the only one that doesn't is Black Hole Sun) The General comes up there, too.

I don't think the results for the covers mean much. In this case it's probably really a playlist and algorithm effect (e.g. many users in Brazil have searched these covers with GN'R).

Gackt Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 These results are getting weird; feeling more certain that search algorithm is starting to get influenced. In regards to the covers, I'm thinking live cuts of WL & IWBYD seem more likely than studio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
