Heaven For Everyone was not one of the last. |

"Let me live" , the same , it might have been a 1983/84 Rod Stewart/Freddie (Queen) idea, but wasnt recorded properly until much later ... And there are "discusions" regarding "you don't fool me" .... it appeared to be an 1980's Queen song which was re-done in 1994/1995 ... And if I am right , on this song Freddie's voice sounds more post-innuendo ... Stefan |

freddie s voice on iabd doesn t sound post innuendo |
Lester Burnham 25.04.2006 15:54 |
Beautiful Day has been confirmed to have been a vocal and piano demo from April 1980. Let Me Live was apparently constructed out of a 90 second recording from 1983, while You Don't Fool Me was recorded post-Innuendo in 1991. I imagine all three of these songs, much like the others, were tinkered with in 1994/1995. |
not that bad 25.04.2006 16:04 |
my question is: in which month in 1991 did they record the last three songs, i know that freddie was very ill, but they did only record 3 songs until october 91? |
Lester Burnham 25.04.2006 16:09 |
I remain firm that Freddie recorded until about June 1991 - as much of a hero as we like to believe he was, I just can't imagine him being in any kind of condition to fly from London to Montreux to record, as he was pretty sick right after the Days Of Our Lives video shoot. However, I don't think we'll ever know if it was October '91 or June '91. |

Is there any pictures after ''These are the days of our lives''? I guess not, cause after that Freddie didn't show himself to larger audience. But you never know. |
violonbleu 25.04.2006 17:19 |
It is very strange how freddie have to breath when he sings in "It's A Beautiful Day"; when I heard it I think he is out of breath... |
Adam Baboolal 25.04.2006 17:19 |
Glad to see Lester putting forward the correct information. Especially on IABD. I, myself said that it sounded like it was from the Game sessions. Then someone asked through Brian's site and it was later confirmed by Greg Brooks. Case closed on that one. Peace, Adam. |

What about the other recordings usually stated to belong to Innuendo Sessions, like, i.e., Secret Fantasy or Committing Robbery? Ever wandered, also, why Queen did not work, for Made in Heaven, on other Freddie's tracks, like, for instance, "money can't buy happiness" (into a who needs you arrangement it would be beautiful) or "love making love" (with a heavier guitar it could have become a great song!) or the beautiful "it's so you"? I cannot exactly believe that's because 'twas Freddies solo projects... since 1/4 Made in Heaven is made by Freddies solo projects... Last question... what about other unreleased tracks? I've heard about a third song with Michael Jackson (a so called 'Victory'), and about Freddies other songs recorded after Barcelona, named 'The Phantom of The Opera', and 'Music of the Night' (Rachmaninov's Revenge, instead, was an 'early version' of Barcelona's 'the fallen priest' Any more detailed information is much appreciated.. |

i would like to know if there are demos of the last three songs, would be interresting to hear this material in his originality without the final input of john, brian and roger |

I know with 'Let Me Live' and 'Mother Love', Brian and Roger completed the lyrics, but I think because of those three songs mentioned, they were done at a different time... or something. Of the three Innuendo outtakes, I really wish they'd done more with 'Self Made Man'. Would've been a great track instead of the reworking of 'My Life Has Been Saved'. 'The Phantom Of The Opera' and 'Music Of The Night' didn't have any official recordings by Freddie, as far as I know. Andrew Lloyd Webber said he would've liked to have Freddie do the songs, and maybe Freddie did some demos, but nothing serious, I'm sure. Plus, Queen as a rule never covered other peoples' songs, though as solo artists, that wasn't the case. I'm just glad they didn't mess with anything from Barcelona, which I'm sure Freddie considered his magnum opus. Though Queen versions of 'How Can I Go On' and 'The Golden Boy' would be really cool to hear. |

How Can I Go On can be considered a Queen song if the recent tour can be considered Queen + Paul Rodgers. |

I believe, according to Jim's book and FM: Untold Story that Freddie was in Montreux at the time of his mother's birthday (September)which is why he sent her flowers instead of a proper visit. So presumably he could have done some recordings whilst there. I also heard something about him recording at the Metropolis studios with Dave Richards working on takes for a Winter's Tale in October 1991. Whether that can be substantiated or not is another matter. |
