i have a question, did they ever performed that song completely live? i've heard only start music versions, but the best part:
They freeze me they burn me
They squeeze me they stress me
With smoke-blackened pistons of steel they compress me
But no-one, but no-one, but no-one can wrest me away
Back to Humans.
i've never heard alive, it's amazing song...
'self-perpetuating a parahumanoidarianised' means that all the robots want to do is become the new humans....just read the lyrics darling, it should make a little sense.....gotta love it when Roger and Brian write a song together... =)
Machines and Keep Passing The Open Window (or something like that)... are great songs indeed. Too bad they were never done live. Machine intro in Last Live in Japan (or whatever the name) concert is really strong and kicks ass. They should have done both live.
And since we're on the subject Nevermore would be a very poweful song in live performance. I still can't understand why Freddie refused to perform it live. I wonder what compelled him to write it and never sing it again. Also Dear Friend, what a jewel.
