Hello darlings. Just was listening to sail away sweet sister and wondered who sang the lines about hot child but you're young and all that? Was that Freddie or Brian? |
Poo, again 08.09.2006 18:04 |
It was John. |

Thanks it's a hard life and magicguyfreddie mercury. Sorry if I spelled that name wrong. I was going to send you an email to thank you. If you'd like to email me sometime, it's jware82234@hotmail.com. After thinking about it, it does sound like Freddie's voice, but sometimes he and brian sound a lot alike. |

There's a song on Hot Space where some people insist Brian sings like one line of it instead of Freddie or the other way around. I can't seem to remember, or identify it just from a quick check of each song right now. Does anyone remember what I'm talking about? LOL |
Queen_Rox 09.09.2006 00:08 |
No-no-no-no-no-no! magicalfreddiemercury and its a hard life, you young ladies are incorrect. Queen Mercury, it was Brian who sang "Sail Away Sweet Sister," not Freddie. If you listen again, you'll notice that his singing voice isn't operatic like Freddie's was. Therefore, Brian's the one who sang it. |

But remember in the middle there is like a part that goes "hot child don't you know you're young...you've got a whole life ahead of you....ahhhh you can throw it away too soon...way to soon..yeah"...lol...The person was referring to this part. I'm pretty sure that Freddie sang it. It sounded different than Brian's voice. |

Brian sang the 'hot child' verse, too. Freddie does not sing any lead on that song. |

Miss Bea Haven wrote: Brian sang the 'hot child' verse, too. Freddie does not sing any lead on that song.I know Brian sang the verses and choruses, but Freddie sang the bridge, which is the middle eight of the song. So, please listen carefully and closely to the song and find out. |
queen mercury 33542 09.09.2006 00:58 |
That does sound like Freddie on the hot child part now that I think of it. I'll have to listen again. Brian can hit some pretty high notes though. Have you heard love of my life in live at the brigston acadomy? That's a high note after I still love you. |

I mean, I replayed it...and I could have sworn the "hot child bridge" was Freddie!!!!! |

queen mercury 33542 09.09.2006 02:02 |
I'll listen to that part right now. I have it accapella from a friend from the game dvd. That vabroto does sound like Freddie's. If I listen to the game accapella and then that part, I can distinguish it better, but it is sounding more like Freddie to me. |
beautifulsoup 09.09.2006 02:23 |
I say Brian. That's my story, and I'm sticking to it! XD |
KingMercury 09.09.2006 02:28 |
beautifulsoup wrote: I say Brian. That's my story, and I'm sticking to it! XDbrian sang that song, but freddie sang that bridge (the one who says "hot child") its freddie's voice there's no doubt about it its freddie's, and i dont need to confirm it to myself people who likes queen and who knows queen's music knows to distinguish each of the 3 voices try to learn a little more |

Thanks, KingMercury. And QueenRox. But you *did* notice that I was laughing in my earlier post? Like this --> XD **At myself?** For my error? Sorry I wasn't more clear about that. :) |

Damn, some people can still not tell Freddie's voice from Brian's? Come on. Next thing is you discuss I Want It All and Who Wants To Live Forever. And then go on about the song Sheer Heart Attack. Oh well... |

For those deaf people still thinking Brian sang the "hot child" bit, here's what Dr May himself said when commenting on The Game DVD-A: "This one has always been a favourite of mine - I wished it could have been a single at the time, but really it would not have worked to put something out as a single on which Freddie was not the principal singer. Of course he does sing the middle eight - and beautifully too. The solo in was always intended to be Killer Queen revisited in a different way (for reasons which are obvious to me, but do not need going into!). The solo starts the same way, on one guitar, and is then enjoined by two others which add in "Bell" type harmonies, a la Mantovani (which I think I talked about elsewhere) In other words the first guitar hangs on, and each guitar that joins in adds in a harmony. The three guitar melodies go on for just a few notes, and then there is an interplay of 'Bells' going upwards in pitch (rather than downwards as in Killer Queen), and there are five of them and they step in very quickly! Now four of them keep playing in harmony until the end when they all become bound into a tight set of ascending chords leading back into the final chorus". |

I'm a trained musician--that voice is obviously Freddie Mercury. No contest. |

So, I guess their voices do sound similar sometimes. |
Adam Baboolal 09.09.2006 08:51 |
I couldn't think how this happens. It amazes me sometimes, then I realise we don't all hear the same way. But I always thought here are three voices that you can't mix up, surely! Peace, Adam. |

Sorry if my thread was very stupid to some people. To get this straight, I have listened to that part again accapella. That's Freddie darlings! Not Brian! And on too much love will kill you, the made in heaven version, that's Freddie too. Xd. |

Queen_Rox 09.09.2006 17:07 |
Aw, crud! I guess I didn't read the part about who sang the bridge of the song, but I knew it was Freddie. I thought you were asking who sang the entire song! Okay, sorry for being a total dumbass. |

Where... how did you get this accepella? Is it something that can be shared? Or bought? Inquiring minds want to know. :-) |
queen mercury 33542 09.09.2006 22:26 |
I have the accapella files, two of them, well, the part of sail away sweet sister and the game, from the game dvd. A friend sent them to me. Do you have msn or an email? That's the only way I can send them to you. Or on link. I can't send them on the site you guys always upload and download stuff from because there is a code that is an image. Thanks for the advice. Hope we can become good friends. |
