If that’s the case, expect the official release to be pushed back another six months. It might take years to fix that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhazUp Posted August 13, 2023 Share Posted August 13, 2023 Maybe Paul Tobias swooped in and re-recorded Robin's high notes over Slash's solo just to pretend like it is the good old days again 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the song is being heard and they are losing streams. Most people will not search for the leak is the thing gnr are counting on, as well as that the people who have found the leak will still stream the official hd version. I think they would look a little better if they acknowledged it though, even in a to gue and cheek way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackstar Posted August 13, 2023 Share Posted August 13, 2023 (edited) 14 minutes ago, BluegrassBlues said: Sorry I know this is a very noob question, but when was Perhaps written? I'm digging what I'm hearing and enjoying it, but what is the time frame on it? Is it about anything or anybody in particular? It's a song that was unheard of before the Village leaks (even if the alleged CD2 track list that was talked about earlier in the thread surfaced in 2011, no one at the time had considered "Perhaps" an actual song title). The date of the mix in the Village discs is March 2000, so it was probably written in 1999 the latest.

Not sure if it's Axl's vocal delivery or the structure of the song (maybe both?) but it sounds like GNR covering a Bowie bootleg. 'Perhaps' it's just me It's like an odd mix of Hey Bulldog and Country House. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Riggs Posted August 13, 2023 Share Posted August 13, 2023 10 minutes ago, StrangerInThisTown said: You're right about that no one seems to realize this, if we didn't know the backstory and it never leaked in 2019 this wouldn't even be a topic of discussion reaching multiple pages, it would maybe be mentioned as a "hmm that's strange but alright" thing. People who never heard the leak would never make a big deal out of it. It's like 2 seconds of a 4 minute song, 1-2 guitar bends and people are like "this is shit" haha. Agreed, it is still kind of a weird way to start a solo though. Although the guitar is growing on me each time I listen. Not incredibly memorable but it fits the song and not every song (especially one that is under 4 minutes) needs a Slither type solo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha yeah, but the headlines make the whole operation look like a farce. Silence isn’t the response to this kind of blunder. As mentioned they could roll with this funny thing that happened and use it to their advantage. I’d be delighted/surprised if they do the that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It makes them look even more incompetent 🤷♂️ That's because they are incompetent.

Maybe a little bit. But I did get a Bowie vibe in Axl's singing on other Village songs, namely State Of Grace (the "now more than ever" part) and Nothing.

So be thankful for the leaks! This has been my thought process as well. This band only does things when their hand is absolutely forced. We don’t have these redone songs with Slash and Duff if the locker leaks didn’t happen. The leaks were in 2019, Slash and Duff did their parts during lockdown in 2020. That wasn’t a coincidence.

The joke boxes weren't supposed to list the songs until the release dates...that was the agreement. I imagine there are a number of radio stations that have the song today....but they know they can't air it until the release date...that waa the agreement.
