Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe the first real leak was Catcher in the Rye in early 2006 no? Before the Hammerstein shows? Possibly 2005?

Yeah, but the whole weaving in GN'R song titles part.
I would imagine because if the song is written from a real life experience then that's kinda what happened. Having said that, the narrative of the song says meeting her took place in 1987, which means Don't Cry hadn't been released yet so he must have met the world's biggest GnR fan for her to have said "Sweet Child O'Mine is ok but have you heard Don't Cry?" The song also says she knew every B-Side so who knows.
I think it's a good song. As for why would you write a song like this? I don't know. Why would you write a song like My World or Get in the Ring? Or hell even Welcome to the Jungle? Why would you write any song?

Where is Bono?
Hope he comes back.
MLS has always come off as a cunt I’ll say!
I thought I read in another thread everyone here also thought Bono was a cunt. MLS was some insider from what I understand. Kinda seemed like he bought into his own hype or something

I can promise you without a shadow of a doubt it's her most iconic song and it's THE ONE song she has that if you play it at a club or a party or a wedding or anything that people will dance to it more so than any other song she has. It's the song of hers that stands the test of time better than any other song she has. Chart wise maybe not but longevity wise it absolutely it is.
Perhaps a lot of that has to do with the controversy surrounding the video and all that but the intro to the song, the beat, the lyrics. It's her biggest song based on how it's stood the test of time. Vogue isn't getting the same response as Like a Prayer at any event in 2023 and 25 years later neither is Ray of Light, which I believe was her last mega hit. that song was everywhere at the time, but not now.

Like a Prayer is Madonna's biggest song.

I looked at the online store for a “Perhaps” cd and came across this:
https://gnrmerch.com/collections/last-c … r-keychain
Guns “and” Roses? This was approved by Team Brazil for manufacturing?
The full extent of their incompetence is astonishing.
hahahahaha! One of my big pet peeves is when I see people type Guns and Roses and here we have now official GnR merch with it spelled that way. pathetic,.
As for the single Perhaps, it's impossible to even get excited about it. The song title itself isn't even convinced.

Great example of recency bias is the love for Scraped on the first few pages of this thread. Probably speaks to the thirst for real rock on the record even if the song doesn’t hold up after a few listens.
Absolutely. The recency bias was strong for sure. Scraped is ass. The song that holds up the best over the last 15+ years in my opinion is Chinese Democracy. It's the most straight forward rock song and it hasn't aged nearly as poorly as the rest of the album. To this day though I still think the song that had the most potential was Prostitute, but like everything else on the album falls incredibly flat in it's attempt to be epic. That and the guitar solo is atrocious in relation to suiting the song.
