sounds like a different take to me
The very first time ive heard at this song was about 6 years ago (Note then was not available any Headlong version with Brian on vocals)
Yep, it's fanmade.
The vocal comes from an early version of Headlong. Which has both Brian's guide vocal and Freddie's final vocal over a programmed drumtrack, bass and piano.
And the backing track is the instrumental of the final Innuendo version.
That's what we need, more fanmade crap posing as an original.
I also don't know why it has both Brian's early guide vocal and Freddie's master on that demo. Maybe it's a hybrid made by Greg Brooks.
You can find it here in bad quality: link
Indeed in a fan made
but brian vocals comes from an early date (2006-2007) when was not available like today in 40th anniversary box set
Ive recieved it from a guy in the UK called Pootle
Yes I got this also ages ago from Pootle, along with 2 other hybrid mixes he did. In Pootle's defence & if I remember correctly, never once did he try to pass these hybrids off as demos. They were what they were, just manipulations of the original, one, to highlight Brian's original guide vocal & two, to make a more complete version with both Brian & Freddies vocal.
Somewhere along the way, it has been manipulated to be passed off as an alternate demo.
