New Guns N’ Roses Song “Perhaps” Accidentally Leaks Via Bar Jukeboxes

Whoops! A new Guns N’ Roses song titled “Perhaps” accidentally leaked over the weekend via TouchTunes’ digital jukeboxes in bars across the United States and beyond.

The track had apparently been slated to be officially unveiled on Friday (August 11th), as pre-save information was briefly posted last week for Spotify and Apple Music. However, that info was taken down, signaling a delay in the release. While it didn’t make it onto those streaming services, the song somehow became playable on TouchTunes’ machines, where it appeared along with its single artwork.

Like Guns N’ Roses’ other recent songs “Hard Skool”  and “ABSUЯD,”, “Perhaps” is not entirely new. It’s believed to be a new recording of a Chinese Democracy-era cut that was never released. In fact, a rough demo version made its way onto YouTube a while back, and Guns N’ Roses soundchecked it before a show in Israel earlier this year.

According to various message boards, word is that Robin Finck and/or Queen’s Brian May played guitar on the demo.

Audio recordings of the jukebox leak have been posted online, but quickly removed by Universal Music. It can be assumed that an official release via streaming services is imminent.

In the meantime, fans can catch Guns N’ Roses on their recently launched 2023 North American tour., which runs until mid October.  Tickets for the band’s upcoming shows are available here.
