Umm...and exactly what about B-sides would make this a Very Best of *Freddie Mercury* compilation?

Yes, I can't wait to hear it. I never heard the original version of that song or Love Kills...hopefully they will be Freddie's versions and not the versions Queen released on Great Pretender in 1993.

I could say, "buy the boxset" but it's out of print.

Freddie Mercury's birthday or not I want B-Sides. Period.

Did you tell Brian when you met him? Or were you just too busy perving at someone who could be your grandpa, little 15 year old Queen-maniac. But well, talk to your parents, they might have heard of a band called The Rolling Stones. Ask them about a certain song called "You can't always get what you want".

It's not a Queen compilation...

AlexRocks wrote: I think that this will be a great idea! Queen need the public's attention over the next five years for TONS of new releases. "The Great Pretender" and "The Freddie Mercury Album" can still exist as they serve as compilations with hits and remixes of hits whereas "Singer of Songs, Lover Of Life: The Best Of Freddie Mercury" can serve as the "definitive single disc best of" with the original versions of these tracks at this time. I think this is going to work VERY well as from the track listing it will be FOURTEEN "best of's" plus FIVE tracks that have NEVER been on a single disc release before. That is REALLY cool folks! I can't wait! ROOCK AND ROOOOLLLL!!!! I just hope that this gets released and promoted here in the U.S. of A.!!! Wow! We have this PLUS the Queen box set "The Full Works" comming out this year! I REALLY hope that that gets released in the U.S. of A. too even though a few years ago Hollywood Records said that they would not release the Queen box sets but perhaps three c.d. sets of them. That would SUCK hardcore for sure. "The Full Works" is going to need a ton of promotion as well!!! Especially in the U.S.!!!!

First, if you think any Freddie solo release is going to get any kind of promotion in America, you're crazy. Second, "The Full Works"? What in the blazes are you talking about?

The so called singles box set
