When Queen released there fifth album " A Day at the Races" back in 1976 the first single to be cut was "Somebody to Love" which reached number 2 here in the UK then disaster happened for there second single they released "Tie your Mother Down" and although it is a great rock song it was not really "single" material for the general public at the time and only reached no 30 i think. That is where i suggest "You & I " should have been released instead of " Tie your Mother Down" it is very easy on the ears and makes for a great top five single and it is so underrated with Queen fans but in my opinion it is Queen gold. Easily recognisable as Queen with great vocals and guitar riffs, i am sure it would have become a smash back in 1976. What do you ardent fans think of that then? |
| The Circle of Eidolon 24.01.2019 16:11 |
The Circle of Eidolon has read and broadly agree. However You and I, although a great song, features Brian May as vocalist and therefore wouldn't represent the whole band when listened to on the radio. Millionaire Waltz may have been a better choice and would have brought back memories, to the radio audiences of the time, of Bohemian Rhapsody with its changing styles and directions.. The Circle of Eidolon has spoken |
| Star* 24.01.2019 16:16 |
You & I does NOT feature Brian on vocals. Freddie was on vocals, silly boy. You do not know your Queen history and for that you are a troll so fuck right off buddy. I bet your a stupid glambert who knows fuck all about Queen history. |

The Circle of Eidolon was going to apologise to you for mistaking You and I for Long Away. After reading your reply and thoughts we regard you and your comments as worthless, meaningless drival from someone who sees their life as being central to all existence.

The circle of eidolon needs to learn some basic Queen History. The track you mentioned "long way" is actually "Long Away" so that is your second mistake in a day. As an Adam Lambert fan you need to snap out of this ridiculous obsession and buy a decent Queen book and discover the real Queen band and there incredible story because they are so much more enjoyable to listen too than any Queen+ trash that is around now. |

mooghead wrote: You & I is the best single Queen never released.Well put. I’ve always thought the same. It should have been released as a single in place of Long Away. And Long Away could have been a hit if Freddie did vocals. Brian’s voice suits the song but Freddie’s appeals to the masses. |
| Dim 24.01.2019 19:56 |
It was very similar with You my best friend, so TYMD was right choice. The first EP Good old fashioned lover boy was also great choice. After 40 years seems that You and I could have been a great single but for its time it wouldn't have worked. |
| Nathan H 24.01.2019 20:13 |
You And I should've been a single as it's a very good song and the perfect song for radio but I don't think it would've got a good reaction from the press because: Somebody To Love sounds like Bohemian Rhapsody and they are both written by Freddie You And I sounds like You're My Best Friend and they are both written by John I think if they repeated releasing a Freddie song then a John song like they did with A Night At The Opera, it would've been seen as a rip off by press because they saw it produce successful results with the ANATO singles. Plus it seems fair for Brian to have a single because arguably he seemed to work the hardest on that album especially the guitar orchestra on The Millionaire Waltz. But I think that on the EP instead of Good Old-Fashioned Lover Boy they should've had You And I so then it's one song each. |
| mooghead 24.01.2019 20:36 |
"You And I sounds like You're My Best Friend" What? "and they are both written by John" The press give 2 shits about who wrote the song? "it seems fair for Brian to have a single" What? Roger didn't have a single until the 80's. How unfair!!!! |

I'm not a massive fan of You And I. It's right on the corny end of John's songwriting - but looking at the album there's not really much of a choice once the you remove the big guns. Perhaps GOFLB should've been the next single, and it's place on the EP later taken by something else. Although I can see their reasoning with TYMD being a single, again, I'm not a big fan of it. |

Good Old Fashioned Lover Boy maybe could have made a better second single. |
| Star* 25.01.2019 17:12 |
Vocal Harmony @ "Good Old Fashioned Lover boy" was released as a single in 1977 for "Queen's First E.P" a wonderfully playful song very much in the vein of "You and I" but with a commercial chorus and staggeringly good vocal harmonies, The guitar solo has sophisticated arrangements with harmonised melodies across the stereo image. Highest chart position in the UK was no 21. "You and I" would have made a brilliant single at the time and more attractive to the general public than "Tie Your Mother Down" John Deacon in my opinion was the second best writer in Queen. |

| dysan 26.01.2019 09:16 |
Yeah I'm weary of alternate histories. We'd probably be having a thread about why was You and I was a single and not TYMD. TYMD works well as a minor hit and live fav. Some of Bowie's best know tracks were never even singles, or certainly under performed as singles. |
| Star* 26.01.2019 10:23 |
"Tie your mother down" was not a minor hit it was a flop in the Uk. Quiet a disaster for Queen after the glory of Bo Rhap & Somebody to Love. Even John Deacon's "Your my best friend" made the top ten. Mays "Tie your mother down" only made no 30. "You and i" was Queen gold and forgotten about even when the band toured it got ignored. |
| Martin Packer 26.01.2019 10:32 |
Right but by the time TYMD was released many people had already bought the album. Do we know if the single version of TYMD had the intro? While great that might've bemused the casual record buyer. |
| dysan 26.01.2019 11:42 |
It charted in the top 40. That isn't a flop. Compared to their chart run it was a disappointment sure, but flop? Nah. |

It's a great song and could've made a great single but it's probably the most "forgotten" song on A Day At The Races because: - It was never performed live - Not mentioned in any interviews by the group after 1977 in my recollection - It doesn't appear on any compilation album (except The Singles Collection in 2009 as it was the B-Side for Tie Your Mother Down) All the other songs on the album agree to at least one of these criteria. You And I definitely deserves more recogniton. |

You & I could have been a success. Similar vein to yes You're my Best Friend and (I think) Killer Queen. Not quite as strong as either, but works perfectly on the album, In the end we'll never know the single-success any song might have had. The Millionaire Waltz is a sister to Bohemian Rhapsody. Not traditional single material, but had it been released, who is to say it might not have been big too? I also understand how with it's more classical and music hall influences it doesn't have the popular music appeal of Bo Rhap so would likely not have worked as a single, but you never know when it didn't happen. I think ADATR is the one album with no weak tracks, so for me any track might have worked (though that doesn't mean they'd all work as singles) and I'd love any track to be loved by more people. :) |
| Star* 29.01.2019 12:50 |
Actually Freddie said "Somebody to Love" was a better constructed song than "Bohemian Rhapsody" But "You and I" is one of those classic sounding Queen songs that everybody adores, great harmonies and a very smart guitar slot in the middle making it a typical gem! I love it. |

My comment WAS on topic, so grow a pair and get on with it. As for Moog....you absolute dick :p I like you, but you're an absolute walloper of the highest order. If you don't like my responses Gerry, you can jog on ;) |

Thistle / Vocal Harmony Again please stop trolling my thread and grow up. i know you have two user names and you enjoy trolling as i have already been told by other guys on here, you are petulant obnoxious and have nothing more in your life other than to follow me around this site spouting your venom. You are spoiling this serious discussion yet again with your pettiness and jealousy because others are very interested in my topic. So do yourself a favour like go and shave your face. |
| Thistle 01.02.2019 16:45 |
No-one is trolling your thread. You dished out garbage when it was pointed out you were wrong (but only in a jovial way. You've continued to dish out insults even when it was pointed out it was a joke. You don't like being wrong. You don't understand irony, asking us to "grow up" and "jog on" when you will neither a) grow up or b) jog on. If "shave your face" is an insult, you're a laughable tool. If you think I'm jealous of your thread or your patter, see the above comment. Tool. |
| Star* 01.02.2019 18:21 |
Thistle / Vocal Harmony i have not insulted anyone on this thread but you and your alias Vocal Harmony have yet again come on here and started having a pop at me which is pathetic and uncalled for, You only come on Queenzone to start trouble, because that is how your pea size brain works. i have been reasonable the last few messages been polite to ask you to just comment on the topic above but you have just gone on and on insulting me, so now i will tell you quite frankly to quit while your ahead or you will be insulted and look like like a bigger wanker than you already are, so do one ! |
| Thistle 01.02.2019 23:44 |
1 - I am not VH 2 - You have do not have the ability to read. If you do, you do not have the ability to understand what you just read. 3 - You made a mistake. You cannot accept this, and will not address it. You will not address that me pointing out your mistake was just jovial, and you were oversensitive. 4 - I did not have a pop at you. Your response to me was to tell me to wind my neck in because you had seen Freddie live - which isn't even relevant to the thread or my comment to you. You then don't see the irony in you asking people to stay on topic! (my response to you WAS on topic) 5 - I don't only come on to QZ to cause trouble. I've been here far longer than you and contributed much more in terms in discussion and shares. Sure, there's the odd disagreement (mostly with you, but that's partly to do with the points I made above) 6 - You say you've been polite, but starting your sentences "please" and ending them with an insult is far from polite. "Wind your neck in" (your first response, and the reason you were called out yet again fro your shitty attitude, is certainly not polite) 7 - You've ended your post with an insult. I'm a "wanker". Yeah, and you're jealous. 8 - Telling me to do one isn't going to make me go away. 9 - A simple apology for your attitude in the first place might help your cause. 10 - If number 9 doesn't happen, people will see who has the problem/ 11 - If I'm to "quit while I'm ahead", are you finally conceding you've been behind this whole time? |
| Star* 02.02.2019 09:27 |
Thistle : your post was read, analysed then completely dismissed Jog on loser. I do not apologise to people on my thread who cause the trouble in the first place. |
| Thistle 02.02.2019 17:44 |
Okay retard. You can't admit when you're wrong, and dance around the situation with insults. In most reasonable people's eyes, that is one of the traits that makes you the troll. Laughably, you're not very good at it because you're the one who wants me off your back. The thread (until you start deleting your idiotic responses) is here for all to see, so they'll know where the insults started. I accept there will be no apology, but you've made a fool of yourself consistently. I'll be here, not jogging on - because the further I jog, the more you'll be behind....and fuck knows, you're backwards enough. |

| Thistle 02.02.2019 18:40 |
If you think I'm nitpicking, are you finally admitting you're a nit? No, let me review this for you once more. I'll break it down in small chunks in the hope you digest it. You had a go at someone for making a wee mistake. I returned it to you, for a joke - and it clearly was a joke. You spat the dummy and started throwing insults, because you're a mong. Since that, neither of your responses have been a) relevant, b) cohesive. Like I say, I'll be right here, so you can tell me to jog on all you want. If it upsets you so much, maybe this ain't the place for you. |

Thistle You and Vocal Harmony yet again spoilt a good thread when everyone was getting along very well, then you come on starting your tirades and slagging me off you just cannot help yourself can you? I do not want to know you and i dislike you because you have nothing constructive to say about the thread but instead start chewing up things i have written and nit picking over a silly chart position and turning that into a row. You are the one that does not understand and as i said a few posts back i have been polite to tell you to quit while you are ahead and your gormless enough to just carry on you spree of abuse at me. And just for the record everyone can agree that you and Vocal Harmony ( same Person) started this sabotage of my thread. DO NOTt start poking the finger at me when you started this. |

That is where i suggest "You & I " should have been released instead of " Tie your Mother Down" it is very easy on the ears and makes for a great top five single and it is so underrated with Queen fans but in my opinion it is Queen gold. Easily recognisable as Queen with great vocals and guitar riffs, i am sure it would have become a smash back in 1976. What do you ardent fans think of that then?You and I is a great album track, but does it stand alone as a strong single song? Remember it had to hook people who hadn't already bought the album. Tie Your Mother Down as a single didn't work. At a time of top ten Quo songs on the UK chart it was probably expected to equal what Staus Quo could do. Good Old Fashioned Lover Boy maybe could have made a better second single. You s usual misread part of it and tried to come back with a clever remark ( something your mental capacity doesn't really allow) you as usual derailed your own thread and not just in your reply to me.

Good to see some heartfelt honesty, and welcome to QZ :) @Moog - for someone who complains about how this place "has turned to shit" and bemoans some of the inane and "embarrassing" posts, you don't half add to it all yourself. I've seen some real crap from you of late. Don't be a tosser. |

It is shit. This thread is the ultimate example. A perfectly good question - turned to shit. The people arguing here surely get a little kick to see that there is a response to their previous post. They get off on it, otherwise it would be a private message. Thats why you all want to fuck each other. Crack on. |

MarlspalQ The trouble started on this thread on page 2 and 3 by "Vocal Harmony" ranting that she wanted to know about the arrangements to "You & I " and bitching that i had pasted my comments from somewhere else and then before that "Thistle" was nit picking with the chart position i had stated for "Good old fashioned lover boy" which was just child like to make him look like his was some kind of Queen expert. I treated you decent as you treated the thread and topic decent so for that thank you and respect. Knobs on here who take the piss will get treated as one. |

The part starting at 'You know I never could foresee the future years' is one of the best moments in a Queen song, IMHO. It is so cleverly written. |
| Thistle 09.02.2019 17:31 |
Gerry, again you've misquoted something and taken it the wrong way. I was trying to have a laugh with you about the GOFLB post, because you had pulled someone up for making a wee mistake. I was hoping you'd take it in the spirit intended, but you threw out insults. I was not trying to make myself look like an expert, as it doesn't take an expert to look up the official charts. Even when you were told you were wrong you still tried to maintain you were right and I just tried to make a joke with you. That was all. I've explained this numerous times. You're so serious. If I'd known you wouldn't take the joke, I'd have just posted a link to the charts. But MarlsPalQ is right. We shouldn't be spouting this shite. Im too busy and have too much stuff going on to constantly be here to make sure you haven't misinterpreted a comment, and to be Frank I can't be arsed either. I'm not apologising, but I don't expect apologies from you either. Things get said, that's life. But...we can agree to draw a line and try to avoid silly comments in future. If you don't like something I've said, or think I mean something that hasn't actually been said, just PM as moog says. I'll do likewise. We might not always agree, but we can avoid daft arguments. Thoughts? |
| Star* 09.02.2019 19:53 |
Thistle It is so difficult on here to see what emotions people are displaying as there are no "smileys" to put next to comments. If that was intended as a joke then i got the wrong end of the stick and i apologise. |
| Thistle 09.02.2019 20:34 |
That's true. It's easy to miss a vibe and things often get lost in translation when something is written on a forum and not said face to face. I hope we're all turning a corner here, and I hold my hands up I could have handled it all better too. Cheers :) |
