Could you tell us your source or at least the lineage? Some parts sound real strange to me. Almost sound fan made. |
| people on streets 11.01.2011 10:43 |
especially the 'when something' at 01:08 minutes and the instrumental guitar part. |

Very nice. Thanks :) |

I understand why they never finished it :-) But thanks a lot , it's great to hear it after such a long time |
| The Real Wizard 11.01.2011 12:15 |
Thanks, David. Or should I say, thanks Greg Brooks. Did he leak it out, or did someone steal or copy the cd he brought along to a fan convention? Clearly there are two takes playing at once for much of it. Were Brian and Freddie playing along to previous takes, or did someone mix two takes together? Something tells me it's the latter, and perhaps Greg, as he did something similar on tracks for the Freddie boxed set. Whoever did it, it's a very amateurish job... the timing is often very off. At 1:08 of the Fred/Brian version, it's just a musical miscue... they're just learning the song as they're writing it, and they were in two different places. |

Thanks a ton!!!! |
| TimBHM 11.01.2011 13:17 |
Wow this is great - what a shame they never finished it off. You can tell it was recorded around the time of The Miracle though... the guitar sound is very reminiscent of tracks like Scandal. Thanks Dave, what's next, Assassin? ;-) |

Hola amigo gracias por la demo, llevo años esperandola hello friend thank you for the demo,I have years wait for it |
| Jan78 11.01.2011 20:11 |
Thanks for this one. Sometimes I wish they hadn't been so critical with themselves and released some tunes as instrumentals, fully written and arranged, just without vocals. Nothing wrong with that. I guess it wasn't the common thing to do (I'm thinking Call of Ktulu or Orion by Metallica). Brian's guitar melody, even though it gets a bit repetitive, is very nice and if you bring I Guess We're Falling Out into it, it simply would have made a nice instrumental. Not like Chinese Torture or the live guitar solos. |

Is this something that people have been waiting for? I can appreciate the fact that it is now being heard but I don't understand why it is being so praised. To me it does sound like a bit of a noise. Bri's playing is typically samey, very samey. I'm not here to slate anything but if someone could explain to me what exactly I am supposed to get excited about.I don't get it. I've loved Queen since '74 and have spent years studying them (like lots here) and have loved the multi-tracks and the odd demo here and there but this doesn't compare IMO. Is there even a song in there, a hook or anything? Perhaps I have no musical bent? Comments like 'have a child with me'.....etc..... Is this piece THAT much of a dream come true? Someone explain it to me. |

And once again my plea : can someone write down the lyrics,please... |
| GinjaNinja 12.01.2011 12:41 |
This is what it sounds like to me: You just have to give me that first guitar, after this you have to give me a guitar entry yeah? Ooooh. Lovely Guitar. Out. When something so dear and dear to life, (So far alight) Explodes, (Falls down beside) You feel your soul, (Your cries kill your hurt) Is set on fire. (It’s so unclear) There’s something (dunno) De-de-de-de-doh, De-de-de-da-da-da-da-da-doh. When the moon has lost it’s glow, Where the sun begins to loom, Look out. Where must oooh. Bits with Fred speaking are in italics. (EDIT: Italics didn't seem to work) |
| emrabt 12.01.2011 12:53 |
Gimme the first guitar, after this gimme the guitar entry yes? hmmmmha ”Lovely” GUITAR! Something so deep and dear in life dear So Dire to life (2nd Freddie) absconds, descried, your cries can be heard It’s cold inside (Something) hear the song? (2nd Freddie) Souls on fire (2nd Freddie) It’s cold and clear-ah Something.. nono Dee deed a da daaa De DE DEE DADADAR DE DAR DAR DAA DOH When the moon has lost it’s glow (But said with a "c" CLow) Where the sun begins to loom (Some quiet mumbling in the back ground) When the STAr shmm (starts, hesitates and trails off) Ohhhh The rest is music. i'm 100% sure of the second line: descry = to discern or make out; catch sight of abscond = To Avoid and hide oneself But the rest is pretty hit and miss Edit, Damn GinjaNinja beat me to it. |
| mandocello 12.01.2011 13:21 |
A Plea To GregSynth: Please do not waste time analyzing whether Freddie hit certain notes at certain points. JUST BE HAPPY THAT YOU GET TO HEAR THE SONG! |
| GinjaNinja 12.01.2011 13:22 |
Sorry! :S The "your cries can be heard" definitely sounds right rather than "your cries kill your hurt", and also makes sense. :P Not sure about that absconds, descries stuff though... It's quite difficult to make out when both voices are going at once. Edit: Oh and that "Where the st..." bit also sounds right to me. |
| Regor 12.01.2011 14:23 |
Dave, this is fantastic, thanks a lot!!!!! The first part to me does not sound like two different demos mixed together, but more like the band trying to develop the song while playing to a first demo (which maybe the one we already know), with the tapes running. Freddie trying a few harmonies over the pre-recorded vocals, and Brian adding some additional figures to the basic lick we all know and love. Also they seem to be trying to find a chord progression for a potential chorus, and Rog changes the tempo at 3.33, perhaps for the same purpose, to give it a change for a proper refrain. The second part seems to me like Brian saying “put that ‘Face it alone’ thing on, I’m gonna try something”. Great work in progress, which of course sometimes seems a bit clueless, but having played bass in a band, I love the process of trying to create a song and can stand guitarists and their self-indulgence… :-) and we’re listening to one of the greatest ever of course. All in all, this is basically a WONDERFUL and irresistible melody, just lacking a finished chorus and coda. The great tension created in the basic verse always makes me wonder why on earth they did not try to finish it during the last sessions. I have said this before, MIH could’ve been so much better (only IMHO) without the rehash of MLHBS or the “Cover versions” of Freddie’s solo stuff. Thanks again Dave! |
| Ron 12.01.2011 14:30 |
thanks alot! sounds nice, but not that special. I see (hear) no reason why this was never shared with other collectors or the Queen fan world, because ie Self Made Man sounds a lot more interesting than this. am also wondering why this recording is in mono :) |
| DavidRFuller 12.01.2011 15:51 |
You're welcome to all the thank yous everybody! I've posted on the info box on the video what I think the lyrics are when I uploaded it, could be wrong at some parts, of course. Rael, as for making a bootleg anthology, thats basically what my YouTube channel has turned into, I guess! silver_salmon, thanks for the treats, but they kind of taste like computer screen :) Faroukqch, if you are an attractive female between the ages of 18-26-ish call me :P galashiels, I'm anything but normal haha, but I am 6 ft tall, if that helps Cheers |

Does anyone have this yet? Wondering if there is any MEGA link for this, since MU has died and good for it. Megaupload was awful and slow and horrible, at least with MEGA we can get up to 2 MB/s in terms of download speed. With that tangent aside, yeah, is there any chance of a reupload there? Thinking of possibly figuring out a cover of it and that sort of thing. |

Always thrilled to hear new stuff but this one doesn't do it for me. None of the versions, to be honest. The early take of Sail away sweet sister (The Game remaster extra) is - in my book - much more exciting than this "Face it alone". I was more impressed by Football fight without synths or the acoustic Dreamers ball too... Wait a minute! What? Indeed, those extra's weren't very bad after all ;-) |
