Freddie and MJ... what songs?
| i-Fred 30.06.2009 22:37 |
To my knowledge there's one song with both of them singing which is: "State of shock" I have heard the one Freddie done as a solo to which MJ done as well: "There must be more to life than this" Thats all I have come accross at this point. Apparantly the one song MJ done with Mick Jagger was ment to have Freddie on there but MJ busted Freddie snorting coke in his bathroom and that was it, all over.... Rumor? Who knows, but if it was true then why the fuck did he team up with Mick Jagger??? I wonder how many songs there are that Freddie and MJ may of done as demos.. |

I was just wondering about this very thing. I know there were three songs, but, I don't know what the third song was. I've been perusing my trusty Purvis book, trying to find the answer. Likely, it is something obvious, and, my increasingly feeble mind simply refuses to recall it. It's been driving me crrrrrrrrrazy all day, and, I was only just now able to retrieve my Purvis book. |

Source link Victory Michael Jackson, 1983. Freddie Mercury provides joint lead vocals and possibly piano. This track began as a Queen track, presumably intended for 'Hot Space', but was not completed. However, it was then worked on by Freddie and Michael Jackson in 1983, but this in turn remains unreleased, although it was reportedly due to be released in 2002 but then cancelled. The track may then have been re-recorded by The Jacksons for their 1984 album of the same name, although I cannot confirm this. State Of Shock Michael Jackson, 1983. Features Freddie Mercury on vocals. Length 4:43. The original duet of this track remains unreleased, although it was due to be released officially in 2002, but the release was cancelled. However, the track was re-recorded by The Jacksons for their 1984 album 'Victory', and reached #14 in 1984. A live performance of the track, featuring Mick Jagger and Tina Turner, can be found on the 'Live Aid' DVD. However the lyrics below refer to the unreleased duet version.

I don't know why I remember there being a rap song done by mj and freddie mercury, I just remember that I was happy it was unreleased. I dont particularly like rap. |

Is this true or are they both real demo versions? Edit: I was going to check the source listed but i can't get it to link. (Page not found) |

I am very firmly of the view that the duet is a fan mix |

From what I heard there were 3 songs taped. Don't know if this is true and it's possibly only a demo, but that would mean that there is 1. State of shock, 2. There must be more to life than this and 3. ??? Time will tell. EDIT. Nevermind this post :) |

They were terrible songs at any rate. The fact that Freddie and Michael are both dead now might make them slightly more worth listening to for some people but really... |

state of shock sounds like a typical pop song that could have been on mr bad guy, vocally is good, though musically sucks...... If brian and roger did finish this song it has potential to be much better than the version we heard. Especially that it's regarded as more a michael song it could be a hit. No offense to Mr. Jackson, but generally his music isn't on the same level as queen. Most of his hits are simple pop songs, so state of shock qualifies. |

Was it perhaps "State of Shock"? I mean, you can hardly call what they were doing there singing, and I could see why someone would mistake it for rap. |

It would be nice if somebody made a re-mix of There Must Be More To Life Than This. One verse of Freddie and one verse with Michael Jackson etc. That shouldn't be too hard for the re-mix boys, I think...? |
