There you are. Nice post (I really like Roger’s music)and in the right section of the forum. Congratulations! ;)
but without the -s- (just http) the link works better. link
This video is a wonderful work of art. Clearly influenced by Bowie's Blackstar, it's definitely the best thing any member of Queen has produced in the last 20 years.

Some Things That Glitter is indeed lovely, as is the Billy Emerson cover.
But Roger takes his art to a whole new level with all the layers in what he's saying - it a very profound piece of work through and through. I still vote for Journey's End.
I think it's a great video! The song itself is not bad but also not special with lyrics like "fly like an eagle etc." But it's one of his best releases I have to agree.
I Can't believe I actually like a Queen related track, It's been so long. Now why couldn't Brian and Roger release this as a Queen song? It would get more attention. I heard the album as a whole is weak.
To me it's just a dirge like so many of Roger's songs (Loser In The End, Drowse). I avoided it on RSD. No interest whatsoever.
I just don't rate him as a songwriter. His lyrics are awful.
The only songs of his I like are big rockers that get their points from power and drumming rather than melody.
When he does have a reasonable melody it always sounds suspiciously helped (A Kind Of Magic, Touch The Sky)
