This one was requested by Elektra right here: http://www.queenconcerts.com/queenzone/1368194.html
So here it is. Hope you (all ;-)) enjoy the final result. It took me some time to match both the versions to make them sound as natural as possible. It's the original Now I'm Here (multitracks) with David Palmers orchestral version.
EDIT:
Oh WOW! thankyou sooooooo much it really has that 'Big Broadway' Sound with the Orchestra as if its been taken from a Rock Musical.
Ive been wanting to hear this for such a long time!
It wouldnt be Rogers cup of Tea but if anything I wouldve left more of the Red Special in the Mix ( the Guitar Riff ) but thats my opinion only and perhaps it was in a different Pitch?.( keychange)
But Thankyou very much I appreciate it and I love it! going to Download Now!

PiotreQ I am playing the Instrumental Now its Fabulous!!!!! Thankyou once again..I can hear more of Brian in the Instrumental for some reason. Its Great!
Happy you like it, Elektra. Thanks so much!
As for the guitar in this mix... well I wanted to expose the orchestral parts. When I layed the guitar to the mix the whole thing sounded a bit messy. But fortunately there ARE some guitar parts in some spots ;-)

PiotreQ yes I understand completely .thanks again its wonderful
Great remix ! Thank you, mate ! I've always thought the "orchestral rock" thing could easily turn into some sort of a cliché. It's often been used as such in my opinion (not much risk taken in terms of creativity, not much depth added to a song, bad re-interpretation, 'easy-listening" feeling,...)... But this could be just epic, too ! And Queen's music should perfectly lend itself to that kind of exercise.
I also have to say that I remember another (and shorter) NIH mix you had already done some time ago. It was called something like the "Confused Mix". I still love it ! Can we consider now that "the philarmonic orchestra DID turn up"... at bloody last !?
well, on first listen i thought my head would explode...seemed like far too much going on.
then second play - turned up the volume...and it was like a musical acid trip - just amazing how ordered this sounds while still sounding chaotic.
sounds like some titanic wrestle between acoustic and electric instruments....i love it. well done
Good work, Piotre! You wouldn't have thought of NIH being 'orchestral' material, but it kind of works. I'll need a couple more listens to really appreciate it, but as usual, a technically excellent mix. :)
