The Rolling Stones are set to release five new songs as part of a deluxe edition of their recent album ‘Foreign Tongues’. Find all the details below.
The legendary band will share the extended ‘Loose Lips’ version of their 2026 LP on November 27 via Polydor/Universal Music. Pre-order/pre-save here.
“Are you ready for more new music from The Rolling Stones?” they wrote. “We’re talking blues, country and that unmistakable rhythm and Stones sound that we know you love!”
It’ll contain the extra tracks ‘Where There’s A Will’, ‘Who You Callin’ Crazy’, ‘Human Tide’, ‘Bad Luck Hideaway’ and ‘She Still Comes Around’. These new additions were recorded during the creative period surrounding the original LP, which marked the Stones’ 25th full-length project.
‘Who You Callin’ Crazy’ features jazz saxophonist Courtney Pine. ‘Bad Luck Hideaway’, meanwhile, is a duet vocal by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards with drums by the late Charlie Watts. The former will arrive digitally on streaming services tomorrow (Friday October 16).
‘Bad Luck Hideaway’ was previously released as a bonus track on the iTunes exclusive edition of ‘Foreign Tongues’, and was recently made available via online platforms as the B-side to ‘Mr Charm’.
‘Foreign Tongues, Loose Lips’ can be purchased as a standalone vinyl and a deluxe 2CD, and will stream digitally. The standalone vinyl edition features all five ‘Loose Lips’ recordings on LP, alongside a CD of the original ‘Foreign Tongues’ album. The 2CD version boasts the original ‘Foreign Tongues’ on CD1 and the five ‘Loose Lips’ cuts on CD2.

In a three-and-a-half-star review of ‘Foreign Tongues’ – the follow-up to 2023’s Grammy-winning ‘Hackney Diamonds’ – NME wrote: “Mick, Keith and Ronnie [Wood] have hit a surprising purple patch – and if you believe the eternally energetic entertainer’s claim that he’s already writing the follow-up to ‘Foreign Tongues’, there’s plenty more left in the tank.”
As aforementioned, Jagger told NME this summer that he’d “already started writing songs” for the Stones’ next album. “They could be for other people though,” he added. “When you write a song, you sometimes decide ‘that’s not for me, but it could be for the Chili Peppers’ or whatever.”
The frontman went on to say that he was “very open-minded” in terms of writing for other artists. “I’ve got a lot of stuff, and not all of it’s suitable for The Rolling Stones,” he told us. “It shouldn’t stop me writing them, you know. If you get an idea, just write it.”
Last week, saxophonist Courtney Pine revealed that the Stones were back in the studio. “I’ve just done another session a couple of weeks ago with him [Jagger] for The Rolling Stones,” he said.
Jagger also spoke about whether the band could head out on another tour or return to Glastonbury in the future during his interview with NME. “I don’t think there’ll be shows this year, but I hope to do some next year for the Stones […] We are gonna get live dates in for next year, hopefully… I’ll let you know when I know.”
He mentioned some potential dates in a residency-style format, noting that guitarist Richards “couldn’t commit” to a full-scale tour. The group previously cancelled a 2026 UK and European stadium trek due to the musician being unable to fulfil the gruelling schedule.
NME has since asked Ronnie Wood about a possible Stones tour. “When my compadres say, ‘Let’s go’, I’ll be ready,” he said. However, he denied that there were any plans currently underway: “I know Mick is busting to go, and Keith is not busting to go. And you’ve got to have everybody’s enthusiasm to do it.”
Wood told us he’d return to Glasto’s Pyramid Stage at “the drop of a hat, but everybody doesn’t think like that”. He continued: “I think we should do a gig, just like you do. And I think we should do a tour, but it’s easier said than done.”
