First of all - happy new year to you all! I wish 2005 will bring happiness and success to you and your families!
Well, my question is: on the sleeve of the Hollywood Records' reissue of 'The Miracle' album written the following lines: "...The Invisible Man (12" Version), Scandal (12" Mix)..." - so what's the difference between '12" version' and '12" Mix' in this particular case?

I don't have any idea. There probably isn't much difference at all. That's if there's any difference.
Well the 12" version is of The Invisible Man, and the 12" mix is of Scandal.
Happy to help...
Well that would be about all i could say. I dunno either.
there are no differences. It depends on how you want to call them. However, if the track is mixed totally diff than you might call it an Extended Mix. And when it's just a longer version than.. well.. you get the point
I would say that Radio Ga Ga has an Extended Version and Breakthru an Extended Mix
consistancy?nah..lol
still,makes things more interesting
Invisible Man extended version=bollocks
Scandal extended version=great.better than the original
I wish the UK release had put Scandal 12" on it
I think on the bonus tracks on the miracle album they should have put Scandal 12" instead of Invisible Man 12". I can't stand the extended version on The Invisible Man. The 12" version of Scandal id brilliant though.
exactly Joe. the start of the invisible man extended mix,sounds like someones computers dying.
whereas the scandal extended mix, it adds more to the power of the song, and gives it a more dance feel, which is the overall intention of the track, or at least, in my eyes, its best qualities. Aside from the ever strong mercury vocals
ive been listening to it constantly on my pc in about the last week,since I downloaded it. Id have actually preferred the extended mix to be the actual album version, seeing as the single only got to 25 and missed off greatest hits 2, would have been nicer to get a stronger one on The Miracle
ah well:(
I have 2 agree the scandal 12" version should have been on the uk version of the miracle has it is by far a much better song and it has all the hallmarks of a great queen song, brilliant vocals by freddie, and outstanding guitar playing from mr may.
In my opinion it's one of my all time faves as for invisible man12" version i would rate it as their worst mix of a song and a crap end to a otherwise great album
Happy new year to all queenzoners.
One of the other things i cannot bear in the 12" version of The Invisible Man is that incredibly annoying noise that completely wrecks Brians great guitar solo. Scandal 12" should be on the UK version of the album. I love Scandal 12" possibly slightly more than the original! Does anyone have a 12" version of Breakthru that i could download. I heard the first 50 seconds of it and thought it was pretty good. I would really apprieciate it if anyone has a copy for download. Excuse my s**t spelling.
thanks, Happy new year

Bizon, question was not about difference of these tracks - I already know it without QueenVault, I asked why HR called one extended version as '12" mix' and another one as '12" version'! Why they both can't be mixes or versions?
