Okay. Guys, I know this may sound crazy, but have you ever listened to a queen song on headphones and heard something in a song, a few words that you didn't catch, and you'd have to listen close? Everyone who has the live in Wemley cd, listen to love of my life, and tell me if you can hear this. After Freddie says, I still love you, and the crowd dies down a bit, I can hear him whisper, "It's okay." You have to listen close. At least, I think that's what he says. Can you hear it? And is there anyone else who has thought or knows they have heard something on theirheadphones that they can't hear on their boombox or stareo? |
| deleted user 25.08.2006 02:32 |
Yeah, I heard that after The crowd dies down, I was actually wondering if anyone else had. and on Anotherone Rides The Bus by Weird Al Yankovic, I swear you can hear random stuff going on in the background that you cant hear on the CD. I'm not sure about anything else... |

you can hear all sorts of things when you are stuck in your room at the other end of the house (mind you your room needs to be as big as mine: you can only talk about 3 steps around my bed and desk) |

I've never heard that. I have to take a look at that one later today (when I'm not at school) I once heard that there was some sound in middle of Freddie's vocal solo in The Prophe's Song that when you hear it once.. you always hear it when you listen to the song. I didn't wanna look for it because I'm afraid it would get too annoying :P Like the door in Loser In The End but the door is pretty cool :P The sound in Prophet's song is suppost to be annoying. Anyone heard that one? |
| FriedChicken 25.08.2006 05:53 |
Yeah, I discovered it when I was doing a little project on strange unintentional sounds in Queen songs. I still don't know what the sound in Prophets Song is. But whatever it is, it's recorded at the same time Freddie is singing (since you hear it twice... I think Freddie accidentily touches the microphone stand. |

liam wrote: what door in loser in the end?Right after '...goodbye, ma" Anyone hear the vocal "duplication" of the bass riff toward the end of The Miracle? There are also little claps or snaps that just aren't quite with the beat. One of the most annoying things (for me) in a Queen song is the "don't do it, don't do it..." in Don't Try Suicide. It is overdubbed and 'stereoified' EXCEPT for briefly after a "yeah!" After hearing it in the surround mix, I enjoy listening for Brian singing "nnn nnn nnn...calling you" in the first chorus of '39. Wow...anything else...? |

What noise in The Prophet's Song? |
| queen mercury 33542 25.08.2006 15:00 |
In the Prophit's song, that noise ould be a guitar string, or something like a microphone too close or something. I am not sure what that little humming noise is. |
| Deacon Fan 25.08.2006 15:17 |
There's a lot of very low volume studio talk in between tracks on the big Freddie box. I use headphones almost exclusively now for music. |
| Rick 25.08.2006 15:22 |
I always thought that sound was John's bass in the Prophet's Song. |
| Carol! the Musical 25.08.2006 16:18 |
Oh, oh, OH! I have one! It's not something you can only hear on headphones necessarily, because my stereo has a special feature, but listen anyways! :P You know in The Fairy Feller's Master Stroke? Listen to the part that says "satyr peers under lady's gown". Listen close. Freddie's voice ( I'm not even sure if it's him... ) sounds *so* high pitched. Like a child, even. :0 |
| Daniel vZ 25.08.2006 16:36 |
That's just Freddie without any pitching ;) |
| queen mercury 33542 25.08.2006 21:44 |
I'll listen to the prophit's song tonight and see what I come up with. That might be John's base. Also, yes. That is Freddie saying something like, it's okay during love of my life at the Wemley show. |

Oh, I know I've heard something, but can't think of it right now, and I can't hear music right now. I don't remember if it is in a Queen-song or a Beatles-song, but I think I've once heard someone laughing in a song. Just a tiny giggle. I remember hearing it in a Beatles-song, now I get to think about it, but I think Brian might have laughed a bit in one of his own songs... Probably not right xD But I love listening to all those tiny detailes! |
| Asterik 26.08.2006 16:44 |
on IGSM, you can hear Fred hold "maa---aad" on the final chorus between "just very slightly" and "And there you have it". |
| Daniel vZ 26.08.2006 19:26 |
In Loser In The End you can hear (at 1min 32sec) a very soft "yea" on the background. Can't figure out who it is. |
| queen mercury 33542 26.08.2006 19:39 |
On what song can you hear Freddie say hold the last line or whatever? Sorry. I can't understand the abriviations to some queen songs. |

Queen Mercury wrote: On what song can you hear Freddie say hold the last line or whatever? Sorry. I can't understand the abriviations to some queen songs.On "I'm Going Slighlty mad" he means. But I think what he means is nothing special, it's just a reverb/echo from the word "mad" freddie sings. At 3min. 52/53sec. in the right speaker, a few seconds before that you can hear it too. |

I really doubt the noise in Prophets Song is guitar or bass guitar. It just doesn't make sense since the song was recorded in section. |
| zaiga 28.08.2006 08:42 |
Something I never noticed, until I read it on that website about Freddie's highest and lowest notes, was that Freddie sang along with Brian's guitar solo on Great King Rat with a very high pitched falsetto! |
| kohuept 14.09.2006 18:47 |
Just remembered this one... With headphones and the surround mix, just before (I think) the guitar solo in DSMN, Freddie yells "Let loose, honey!". For some reason I always thought it was "Don't stop me!" |
| rocks. 14.09.2006 19:13 |
Ok, everybody listen to The Miracle and at 3:49 just after freddie says "today!" and John starts in with that awesome bass you can hear freddie humming along with the bass "ba ba bud ah bu da da", its so cool! |

One of the things that never let you after hearing it : the famous "yeah" at 1'51" in "Action This Day", later re-used as the end of "It's A Beautiful Day" in MIH. :) |

Oh I got one. The No More Brothers extended mix of /Living on My Own\ has a bad left channel glitch at :28. Looking at the waveform, it's like a big gap. They didn't fix it for the new CD either. It's that way on the big box too. |

Okay. I don't think he's crazy. There is a part in bohemian rapsody right before the sillowette part, you hear freddie say now, as if he's directing the band. Listen closely. You can especially hear it on the dvd version of a night at the opera, but you can also hear it on the original album. |

As for the WWRY thing, it definitely is Brian counting "four". He admitted to this a while back. I can't figure out what Freddie's mumbles are on TYMD either. It reminds me of Billy Joel's My Life. You can isolate the vocal in the center channel of the surround mix, though. I don't think you can for TYMD. I'll have to try. |

It's very faint so you have to listen closely. See if you can catch it. ;-) |
