From QOL: "One of these tracks, C-lebrity, will receive a sneak preview when the band make a by-demand return to the UK’s ITV Al Murray’s Happy Hour for the final show on April 4. " It also mentions that "Say It's Not True" will be on the new album. There will also be a cover version on the new album, although it the press release does not mention what it is. |

A cover version on the CD?? I wonder which song?. Actually technically this isnt the first time they have done a cover version. As you all know they did GSTQ and The Wedding March.... |

I'm guessing Lose Yourself. ;-D |

To me "C-lebrity" sounds like a Roger song in which he takes another shot at stupid celebrities. Just speculating though, it could be from either three of them. I like this title. |
| Wiley 19.03.2008 13:06 |
Just speculating and with some imagination, I had a disturbing vision. If it is indeed by Roger I imagine it could turn out like "Shove it" or "Nazis 1994" with Roger ranting over a given situation (Celebrity) and then Brian kicking in with the Red Special for a thunderous anthemic chorus (like SINT's trademark "Queen sound in a can") with Paul's voice soaring over a wall of generic Queen sound filler. What was Brian's last trully GREAT melodic solo? In the last years all I've heard him play is the solo on Q+Robbie's WATC all over again. :S Or... the song could be Freaking Awesome!! :D Let's hope it is. |

Recording a cover version for a Queen album is a HUGE break with tradition. I'm not happy at all... V. |

Queen never really stuck with tradition....they always tried new things...i mean hotspace wasnt really traditional was it? |

I think it is great that they are doing a ocver version even though initially I was put off by it. Think about it. It will draw the interest of the public more so with whatever opinion that they have with this project. |
| Knute 19.03.2008 19:33 |
"Don't you dare touch Queen!" "Don't you dare deviate from what Queen did!" LMAO They can't win no matter what they do. Classic catch-22. |

Riiiiiiiiiight. How about you wait to hear it before you dump on it? There'll be plenty of time to dump on it then.bigV wrote: Recording a cover version for a Queen album is a HUGE break with tradition. I'm not happy at all... V.Yes. Thats not good |

What about "Imagine"? They've played it live and I thought it sounded great and it seems to be as timely now as ever. |
| Raf 20.03.2008 07:51 |
At first I didn't like to see they were gonna do a cover. But then, like someone said, let's hear it first. Who cares that it's a cover? Brian has already recorded covers, Roger has already recorded covers (and if you want the truth, I like his version of Working Class Hero better than the original), FREDDIE has already recorded covers. They're very experienced musicians. They've got a few decades of experience both on the road and in the studio. So let's give them a chance to try whatever they want, I'm pretty sure they know more than we do. |

Back to the original subject though, I am really hopefull that our UK friends will record this properly :) May I suggest not only a DVD version of the entire appearance, but a direct wav to flac recording of the song itself.. please? I'm sure many would appreciate this. :) |

It'd also be splendid if you guys could just post it on Youtube. |

I'm personally willing to bet that it'll be either "Jailhouse Rock" or "All Right Now". At the very worst, they could cover a new song, like "Gimme More" *cough* |

Brandon (I think) mistakenly told me during the song then that it was 'Muddy Water Blues', but I wasn't familiar with either song either way. Was great to hear a blues song during that show though :D |

I'd say a donation of $50 US or more to the 46664 charity cause :) Would you include "Gimme More" as part of the bet, even though I meant it as a joke? :P |

I'd be happy if the cover was "Everybody's gotta learn sometime" as they did with Zucchero at 46664 - but most unlikely choice! |
