13. Yeah
The B-Side Lost Opportunity and the mystical bonus track on Made in Heaven were voted off their separate polls. I'm not particularly happy with either of these choices, but the latter makes me particularly sad because I've really grown an attachment to that thing. Whenever I listen to it, I just go to a magical place in heaven where everything is perfect and Freddie Mercury is having a grand ol' time. I...I just don't think it deserved to be voted out this early.
Like, how could you do this to me, guys? I thought we were friends!
I thought I could trust you with my feelings!
Fine! You know what? I don't need you! I don't need any of you people! Not even you there, tubbs! I can go be happy all by myself!
Hmmph!
...Okay, I got over it. For now, anyway. Just...just vote for your least favorite songs. And make sure I approve before you cast your vote.

Made in Heaven: link
I love delilah. F@### you SCUM!
;-)
MAN. never would have expected it to be voted off first. Especially consideRing this is a poll for both albums.
Would have guessed beautiful day reprise and IWBTLY first. Maybe hitman third.
Anyway. I enjoy the inspired frivolity of DELILAH. Brian Mays solo makes it a silly fun you can wince at
Not sure how to approach Made In Heaven here - I really like My Life Has Been Saved, but I much prefer the '89 B side version, the one from MIH is kind of sub par. But I still feel bad voting it out... Went for Beautiful Day Reprise this round. Always seemed kind of a pointless track, with mix and match vocals and piano parts from Action This Day, SSOR and whatnot, makes it feel kind of cheap and takes away from the energy it's supposed to have. The heavy instrumental stuff is pretty cool though really, though I can't say it strikes me as something the song needed, based on the regular version, which I quite like.
As for Innuendo, I voted for All God's People, but I Can't Live With You seems to be on it's way out. Shame, I quite like the song, despite it sounding like it was recorded in a tin can.
Expanding slightly on what 'tomchristie22' says in regards his opinions on My Life Has Been Saved;
I personally think that the original versions of Made In Heaven, I Was Born To Love You & My Life Has Been Saved sound far better than the sort of 're-makes' on MIH. MLHBS would be far better in my opinion if the ad-libbed vocals and the original guitar parts were still present from the B-Side version, although I much prefer the drum track in the MIH version. And with the two from the Mr Bad Guy album, I feel they sound a bit too over-done. Even though MIH sounds a bit choppy in the original, theres something about it that feels quite catchy that the newer version loses. The same goes for IWBTLY.
And that is why I've voted for IWBTLY

I agree about Life, but I violently disagree about Born and Heaven. Those two are excellent on this album IMO.
As for the poll, MLHBS seems to have acquired the most votes on MiH, but Innuendo is tied between The Hitman and All God's People at 20. Not sure what to do about this.
