Queeniac Club

[mandilambi]

Since a lot of us are Queen fans, I think it is only right that we start a Queeniac Club! We can talk all things Queen, whether it be be from past or present! We can also have Queeniac members who want to wear the name of Queen in their sigs! This can be the place to talk about the Kings of Rock! :)

If you would like to be added to this list, please message me and I I will add you and pm you your number! Thanks!

[AKateisaKate]

I'm GAME. Ha ha. No.

Count me in, anyway.

[mandilambi]

Ooh add me! Queen is my favorite band of all time :punk:

Mine too, girl.:thumb_yello:

[FairyFeller]

Well you know you can definitely count me in! I'm obsessed with Queen. like last night, a Queen + Paul Rodgers concert from the Return of the Champions dvd was on tv, and I started flippin' out. :punk: :punk:

[mandilambi]

AKateisaKate - Queeniac#6. Btw nice Game reference there. lol ;)

[mandilambi]

FairyFeller - Queeniac#7. Oh, and I love that dvd! My fave performance is Love of My Life and Bo Rhap! :)

[mandilambi]

I wanted to share this information that I read a couple days ago! A guy from the board queenzone posted it and if this is true, I think it is awesome!

"Hey everyone! Just came by to tell you that I went to the Paul Rodgers concert near Atlanta, GA on Friday, the 13th. First off, Paul looks great. He was wearing the same pants from ROTC with a tight white t-shirt. Looked like he'd been seriously working out. The concert was wonderful and Paul sounded fantastic, vocally. Really hit some high, high notes. Solid. Ok, anyway, this venue was really jazzy. Very nice. There was an open-air lounge/bar to the left of the seating and there I ran into a guy wearing a backstage pass. So I approached him...

...Turns out he's Paul's lighting engineer. The same lighting engineer for the Q+PR tours. Very chatty guy. I asked him if he'd be returning for their next tour. He told me that yes, he would. Naturally my next question was "when does the tour start?" His answer was this:

"THE NEXT QUEEN AND PAUL TOUR? THE BEGINNING OF NEXT YEAR. THEY DON'T WANT TO GET BURNED OUT ON TOURING, SO THEY'LL BE BACK ON THE ROAD IN EARLY 2008."

The guy went on to tell me that he is working for Paul on his current US tour, has three weeks off and is then working with LL Cool J on his upcoming tour. He'll then again have time off, after which he'll resume work with Queen + Paul Rodgers. So, I guess if we keep up with the LL Cool J tour, we can sort of from the last date when the next Q+PR tour might kick off. Can't wait!"

[mandilambi]

Seeing Queen was one of my life goals, too! When I saw them in concert I cried my eyes out...LOL!!! I am definitely seeing them again for their next US tour!

[italianfan]

When I saw them in concert I cried my eyes out..me too ..when they sang "i was born to love you "

[Sara Zamuone Oz]

I want to get in! This is a great idea! :D

[mandilambi]

Hmmm...they didn't perform "I Was Born To Love You"....do you mean "Love Of My Life" by any chance? I actually cried during that performance, because I never thought I would be able to sing back to any member of Queen!!!

[mandilambi]

italianfan - Queeniac#8
Sara_Zamuone_Oz - Queeniac#9

[Mary]

Wooo! Great thread!

Count me in! :punk:

[Mary]

Hmmm...they didn't perform "I Was Born To Love You"....do you mean "Love Of My Life" by any chance? I actually cried during that performance, because I never thought I would be able to sing back to any member of Queen!!!

Just like me!

Oh...and the clapping thing in Radio GaGa...one of my dreams come true! I could never imagine I would ever do that in a real "Queen" concert! :wub2:

[FairyFeller]

One of my favorite songs from Queen's later years:

Let Me Live

Three four
Ooh
Take a piece of my heart
Take a piece of my soul
Let me live
Oh yeah

Why don't you take another little piece of my heart
Why don't you take it and break it
And tear it all apart
All I do is give
And all you do is take
Baby why don't you give me
A brand new start

So let me live (So let me live)
Let me live (Leave me alone)
Let me live, oh baby
And make a brand new start

Why don't you take another little piece of my soul
Why don't you shape it and shake it
'Til you're really in control
All you do is take
And all I do is give
All that I'm askin'
Is a chance to live

(So let me live) - So let me live
(Leave me alone) - Let me live, let me live
Why don't you let me make a brand new start

Yeah, and it's a long hard struggle, yeah yeah
But you can always depend on me
And if you're ever in trouble - hey
You know where I will be

Why don't you take another little piece of my life
Why don't you twist it and turn it
And cut it like a knife
All you do is live
All I do is die
Why can't we just be friends
Stop livin' a lie

So let me live (So let me live)
Let me live (Leave me alone)
Please let me live
(Why don't you live a little)
Oh yeah baby
(Why don't you give a little love...?)
Go for it baby

Let me live
Please let me live
Oh yeah baby, let me live
And make a brand new start
Let me live (Let me live)
Ooh yeah (Let me live)
Come on (Let me live ooh)

In your heart, oh baby
(Take another piece, take another piece)
(Take another piece, take another piece)
Ooh please let me live
(Take another piece, take another piece)
(Take another piece, take another piece)
Why don't you take another piece
Take another little piece of my heart
Oh yeah baby
Make a brand new start
Baby baby
Baby baby
Baby baby
Baby baby
All you do is take, take
Let me live
(Let me live)
Oh yeah let
Let me live


I love how Freddie, Roger, and Brian all sing lead on this one. :wub2:

[FairyFeller]

One of my favorite Queen songs of the later years. Probably my favorite one that was done without Freddie...Brian's vocals are so strong on here. Such a sad song, but so beautiful.

Lyrics

No-One But You (Only The Good Die Young)

A hand above the water
An angel reaching for the sky
Is it raining in Heaven -
Do you want us to cry ?

And everywhere the broken-hearted
On every lonely avenue
No-one could reach them
No-one but you

One by one
Only the Good die young
They're only flying to close to the sun
And life goes on -
Without you...

Another tricky situation
I get to drowning in the Blues
And I find myself thinking
Well - what would you do ?

Yes! - it was such an operation
Forever paying every due
Hell, you made a sensation
(sensation)
You found a way through - and
(You found a way through)

One by one
Only the Good die young
They're only flying to close to the sun
We'll remember -
Forever...

And now the party must be over
I guess we'll never understand
The sense of your leaving
Was it the way it was planned ?

And so we grace another table
And raise our glasses one more time
There's a face at the window
And I ain't never, never saying goodbye...

One by one
Only the Good die young
They're only flying to close to the sun
Crying for nothing
Crying for no-one
No-one but you

[Fmbm]

There ya go!

Thanks! :roftl:

this song always makes me cry....sucha sad song...but beautyful...sigh...
another sad song but wonderful is "Winter's tale"...

[white queen]

:tears: here the lyrics of "A winter's tale", and also the video...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8vCYkTx_5us

"A WINTER'S TALE"
It's Winter-fall
Red skies are gleaming - oh -
Sea-gulls are flyin' over
Swans are floatin' by
Smoking cimney-tops
Am I dreaming...
Am I dreaming...?

The nights draw in
There's a silky moon up in the sky - yeah -
Children are fantasising
Grown-ups are standin' by
What a super feeling
Am I dreaming...
Am I dreaming...?
Woh-Woh-Woh-Woh

(dreaming)
So quiet and peaceful
Tranquil and blissful
There's a kind of magic in the air
What a truly magnificent view
A breathtaking scene
With the dreams of the world
In the palm of your hand

(dreaming)
A cosy fireside chat
A little this, a little that
Sound of merry laughter skippin' by
Gentle rain on my face
What an extraordinary place!
and the dream of the child
is the hope of the man

It's all so beautyful
like a landescape painting in the sky - yeah -
mountains are zoomin' highter - mm -
Little girls scream an' cry
My world is spinnin' and spinnin' and spinnin'
It's unbelievable
sends me reeling
Am I dreaming...
Am I dreaming...?
Oooh - it's bliss.

here Freddie gives his soul....

[FREDDIESDOUBLE]

Wasnt winter tale one of the last ones he wrote?

[jengafer]

that is a beautiful song and full of optimism:biggrin2: :thumb_yello:

I love that song typical roger and nice video, :biggrin2: noone but you wasnt just for fred those was it, think Diana was mentioned and all those who die too soon or something, not so keen on noone but you, although i like it of course, there is nothing from queen i dont:roftl:

[white queen]

that he wrote maybe...but i think it was "Mother love"...

[lollypop]

yes that's what i read somewhere...

that's a beautiful song, that's my fav. it make me cry each time I listen it

[mandilambi]

lollypop - Queeniac #22

And A Winter's Tale is abeautiful song. Most of the songs from Made In Heaven seem really optimistic, but I find it really difficult to listen to that album. It's the same with Innuendo. There's so much baggage with those two albums that I find it too sad to listen to them.

[mandilambi]

Oh, and "Mother Love" was the very last song that Freddie did vocals on....

[white queen]

that's a beautiful song, that's my fav. it make me cry each time I listen it

yes....especially when he says "I long for peace before i die..."sigh...

yes it's really hard to listen to these songs (watchin' video is even harder...)
The harder thing is to hear the voice of Freddie so tired, and no more powerful but now delicate and thin( as in "don't try so hard"...)
in made in heaven he hardest to listen to is "It's a beautyful day"...his voice is very tired here (When he sings "And no-one's gonna stop me now...mama")...and it seems an optimistic song...but it isn't...

white queen - I know what you mean. I think if the circumstances were different when Innuendo and Made In Heaven came out, those two albums would be really optimistic, happy albums. But...since we, as Queen fans, know what was going on during the production of those records....it's just a little sad to listen to them.

[Ju.Thulc-girl]

Here's another Queen fan!! =D I Loooove them!

Innuendo is my favourite album.. These are the days of our lives and My Bijou always make me cry. They are so beautiful, but so sad.

its sad for us to listen, but amazing that he went on as he did, I agree though I dont like watching all those documentarys there were released after 1991, Magic Years rock!

I'm glad to see this club is getting bigger and bigger! Keep on comin', guys and gals! :)

And jengafer - I agree with you. And I *love* the Magic Years. Certainly one of the best Queen documentaries. Love the One Vision recording sessions. :)

I am still crossing my fingers that an older concert performance of Queen's will get released on DVD. I would love to see Live at the Rainbow get released professionally. Basically anything from the 70s would be awesome.

I know!! Young Brian:wub2: lol :bleh: I'd like it because, as they didn't have so many albums, they played a lot more from the first-ones. I think it's just a matter of time.. there must be good material somewhere.

[mandilambi]

Exactly my thoughts, too, Ju.Thulc-girl. I am a huge lover of Queen's 70s catalogue. Plus there have already been so many 80s live dvds put out, so you are right that it must be a matter of time. :)

I have got Live at the rainbow, it was part of the Queen box of tricks or something i will have to check, it was a red set released in limited numbers (after 1991) I expect you can still get hold of it somewhere.

I found a link, mind you it was a video:blink:

Fantastic!! Thanks :thumb_yello:

[Martincy]

Hey I'm in! I adore Queen! :thumb_yello: I guess I'll always regret the fact I never had the chance to see them live...Has anyone of you ever gone to one of their concerts? I read in some thread of someone who saw them at Live Aid in '85, I don't remember who though...

Actually, I have the concert, too, but bootlegs just aren't the same as a professional dvd. Or at least that's how I feel about it.


Martincy - Queeniac #26! I saw Queen live in 2006. It was awesome, despite it being without Freddie. I hope to go to a couple more shows on their next tour!

Crina, thanks for sharing. :)

[jengafer]

its not a bootleg:blink:

[jengafer]

Martin, I have seen brian May a good few times in concert and roger twice, they were both awesome, totally amazing, brilliant! I also saw them at the Freddie Mercury tribute concert ..amazing, that was so emotional!!
i saw queen with paul rodgers but that just didnt cut it for me without fred, still worth seeing though, but i prefer them doing solo stuff when fred is not there, Lots of ppl obviously really loved paul rodgers at the concert and what a task he took on but he is no where near a freddie, I kept meeting up with Queen fans in the loos when he was doing one of his songs! :naughty: never saw Queen, too young at their last tour worst luck, but have met Brian:biggrin2:

There are a few ppl here that have seen Queen more than once, lucky for them, but they are not all in this thread:biggrin2:

[mandilambi]

its not a bootleg:blink:

Sorry, I was referring to what I own. A lot of Queen fans I know have to resort to owning unofficial stuff since a lot of Queen's work doesn't get professional releases.

This is where an official complete box set would come in handy.

You met my husband?!!! Details please!

[Ju.Thulc-girl]

Thanks for the information jengafer! I don't think i'll be able to find some of those here, but maybe someday, who knows! And how lucky u are ! You've met Brian and were at the tribute concert! :biggrin2:

I really hope the guys decide to do a world tour and they come down here. I wasn't even born when they last toured, and was only 2 or 3 years old when Brian came solo. :thumbdown:
I know it's not the same without Freddie, but I'm really happy Brian and Roger are enjoying it and doing what they like. :thumb_yello:

[mandilambi]

I know some people don't dig Paul Rodgers, but we fans have to be thankful enough for him in the fact that he was instrumental in getting another Queen tour together and he is also a huge part as to why Queen is doing another record right now. I can't express enough just how thankful I am for him.

You als ohave to leave the Freddie/Paul comparisons at the door. Paul does not want to be Freddie, nor do Brian and Roger want him to replace Freddie. This is impossible. So I say just enjoy the Queen for what they are bringing to the table. I would much rather have Queen than not have any at all.

I also hope to see them again on their upcoming tour. :)

[Ju.Thulc-girl]

I can't express enough just how thankful I am for him.


Me too! :biggrin2:

And I don't think it's possible to compare them, they are just different. Paul is an excellent singer, I don't know much abt him as a writer, but... Brian and Roger are there, so the record must be good. Godd I can't wait! :punk:

[mandilambi]

I can't wait either! I think just having new music from Brian and Roger is wonderful! I am really glad that they chose someone like Paul, because he has been in the music business for just as long as they have and he has his own successes too. It's great that Queen fans and Paul Rodgers fans can unite together to enjoy some classic rock music. :)

[Ju.Thulc-girl]

yeah! And I have to admit.. I'm glad he's not like Freddie, so there's no way anyone can say he's replacing Freddie.
Thanks to this "union" I got to know Paul. =D As always, they chose quality .

[FairyFeller]

I'm still up in the air about the whole Paul Rodgers deal...I'll be glad for new music from Roger and Brian, but I think they could have resurrected Queen without Paul, since both Roger and Brian are excellent singers. Roger would easily be able to handle the harder rock side of the band, and Brian could stick to the softer stuff. But still, I'm willing to give Queen + Paul Rodgers a try.:naughty:

[mandilambi]

I feel the same. I like that they got someone who is totally different from Freddie. Even though people still say "Nobody can replace Freddie!!!" as if this isn't already obvious to us. :)

I really enjoyed his performances of his songs at the Queen concert. I wasn't very familiar with any of his band's stuff, so that was cool!

I also think it would be awesome if Mika opened for Queen and Paul Rodgers' next tour. I can only imagine the comments we would get though. Just a bunch of more comments about how Mika is trying to be Freddie. Pfft. :P

[mandilambi]

You have to consider, though, that Paul is bringing in a huge amount of the fanbase too. I often wonder if Brian and Roger would be able to sell as well if they went on alone. I know there are some faithful Queen fans (myself included!), but who knows how well they would do when on their own. I imagine they would do great in the UK and other European countries, but I highly doubt the two of them would make huge dents here in the States. This is sad, but true, I think. :(

So what I mean to say is, Paul is doing a lot with bringing in his fanbase. I think the combination of Paul and Queen is great because the fans double when you combine the numbers. Just my two cents though.

OMG! That would be too fabulous... :biggrin2: I don't think i could handle it :shocked: :naughty:

I'm sure if I get to see both, I won't care abt people comments cause i'll be flying who knows where!
But, yeah, that sort of comparisons are annoying.

yeah, you're right. There never were as many Queen fans here in the States compared to the rest of the world. For me its the other way around about the fanbase, as I'd never even heard of Paul Rodgers before he and Queen got together. I may buy the Return of the Champions live thing this weekend and see how much I like it. :biggrin2: To be honest, when I first got into Queen, I thought the new project was Roger Taylor + Queen, and I imagined him belting out all of their classics from behind his drum kit (that would be awesome) ,and I kept wondering why it was Roger Taylor + Queen, since he was in Queen since they started :blink: ...then I found out it was Queen + Paul Rodgers. :lol3:

[mandilambi]

I think that would be the ultimate concert. I can only dream! :)

[mandilambi]

You should definitely buy Return of the Champions. It's a great live performance and you can really see that Queen (and probably Paul too) can still deliver an awesome live show.

And lol about the Queen + Roger Taylor! That would've been an interesting tour, I suppose. ;)

[white queen]

I know!! Young Brian:wub2: lol :bleh: I'd like it because, as they didn't have so many albums, they played a lot more from the first-ones. I think it's just a matter of time.. there must be good material somewhere.

yes!!!They played also "White Queen"!!!!!!!:punk: oh how i love this song!!!!!!

i'm sorry...but my heart cries when Paul sings Queen songs...not because of his voice(:naughty:) he's a powerful voice...but...
I think that Queen could go on without a "lead" singer...only in 3 ( because now there isn't anymore John...they're no more Queen...)

[mandilambi]

I disagree. I think Queen can live on. Brian and Roger still have it in their hearts to perform and I believe that they are carrying Freddie and John's legacy on through performing Queen's music. Saying Queen is no more isn't right, because Brian and Roger are doing their best to be content with touring and they are trying to give the faithful fans more thing to enjoy.

Not only that, if Brian and Roger don't perform anymore or make new music, Queen will be dead completely. I for one, do not want that.

yes i agree...i didn't want to say that Queen are died, and of sure i didn't want to say that Brian and Roger cannot cope with it...they're great, great musician...and that's why i think that they could go on without Paul Rodger.
they're 3 great musicians, composers, performers and Brian and Roger also great singers...(when brian sings "love of my life" i almost cry)and that's why they could go on singing, recording new cds...without a new singer...because we know that freddie is irreplaceble
:D

[mandilambi]

It's wonderful :wub2: !
One my favourite songs..:cheerful_h4h:

[mandilambi]

Certainly one of Brian's finest! :)

[Blue Sky]

When I went to see Queen and PR live in Tokyo, and then bought the ROTC CD and also the DVD of the Japanese shows (not the one I went to, but it'll do!!) I was so impressed with the way they handled the whole "Paul is not replacing Freddie" thing. He really isn't, and couldn't, but I am really glad that having him there gave Brian and Roger whatever it was they needed to get back on the road and into the studios. WE are lucky to have QUEEN back in whichever form they choose.


I for one cannot wait for their new album.
BTW did anyone hear Roger Taylor's son's song last summer? He sounds just like his Dad.

[Mika Owns Me]

Hey sorry to interrupt this OH awesome conversation, but can I be a queeniac too? :biggrin2: PLEASE! Queen is such a HOT HOT band.

:thumb_yello: So good that u've enjoyed the concert! It's always great to hear from people who went there that it was good.

awwww I completely love Felix and Arty's song!!:wub2: It reminds me of spring, summer and the joy of being on holidays. :biggrin2:
He did sound like Roger, beautiful voice...

Somewhere in the world... it's a sunny day...:fisch:

I agree totally with you, Blue Sky. I think that Brian and Roger simply still have an immense desire to tour and put out new music and I think they feel Paul is the perfect person to help them do this. Honestly, I get frustrated by the comments about how Paul is replacing Freddie or how Freddie will never be replaced. We all know Freddie is irreplacable! I say enjoy the Queen that we have now for what it is and don't let the fond memories of the past die out. Because if fans are constantly thinking about how the Queen we have now is so inferior to as it was before, we're just making Brian and Roger's endeavors even harder to accomplish.

I also agree that we are lucky to have Queen at all! I will never knock the guys for the choices they've made and will always be thankful for Paul because he made it possible for me to see my heroes in concert!

[Mika Owns Me]

THANKS FOR ADDING MEEEE!! :biggrin2: :biggrin2: :biggrin2:

[mandilambi]

No problem!

[Mika Owns Me]

:biggrin2:
I don't know if you've discussed of this, (cause I haven't read the whole thread) but I was wondering if any of you had Queen DVD's?? I have the greatest hits 1 and 2 (the vids) and live at the bowl. Is there any other DVDs you would recommend?? And is there anyone here who has seen an interview of Freddie in the 70's?? I can't find a single one!!!

[mandilambi]

You should definitely look into buying Live at Wembley as it is an awesome concert. I would also recommend the dvd The Making of A Night at the Opera. This is one of my all-time fave dvds, as ANATO is my favorite record and getting to see a dvd dedicated to it is great. Also there is a dvd called We Will Rock You and it's also great.

As for Freddie interviews from the 70s. I would recommend looking on youtube!

[Mika Owns Me]

Hey thanks for the recommendations!!!
And for Freddie's interviews, I've searched on youtube SO many times... can't find one... :thumbdown: I'm sad. :emot-sad:

[mandilambi]

Hmm, well, from my experience with Queen vids, I would say that interviews with Freddie from the 70s would be harder to find than later interviews. I would imagine a lot of the interviews he did in the 70s were mostly for mags and papers. :-(

But I'm with you, I'd love to see some really old interviews with Freddie from say, 74. :)

[jengafer]

Hey thanks for the recommendations!!!
And for Freddie's interviews, I've searched on youtube SO many times... can't find one... :thumbdown: I'm sad. :emot-sad:

you know he hated interviews:roftl: did everything to avoid them, what a sweetheart! There are some for sure, I posted some links a few pages back to SOME ealry interviews I am sure, have a check anyway :biggrin2:

[FREDDIESDOUBLE]

you know he hated interviews:roftl: did everything to avoid them, what a sweetheart! There are some for sure, I posted some links a few pages back to SOME ealry interviews I am sure, have a check anyway :biggrin2:

Yeh he hated them Im so lucky to have a Freddie Mercury box set , it has lots and lots of interviews ... amazing , he was so sweet but powerful ... I adhore the guy :biggrin2:

[Blue Sky]

I have a good book called Queen in their own words, and the quotes from the interviews are classics.

I love Roger Taylor's quote..." we don't want to become old, rich and useless" see an interview with him here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5GrZ_M2-DAg

and for some top Freddie interviews, put in a youtube search for the username arcadata, and go to arcadata's page and get quite a few of them...
eg.

[FREDDIESDOUBLE]

The box set with 12 dvd/cd's in yeah?

Yeh thats the one , my pride and joy:biggrin2:

[jengafer]

Advantages Everything Freddie did solo
Disadvantages Expensive
Just to begin with, this is the Ten CD, Two DVD version of the solo collection, that comes in a very nice large hardback book, the other more popular version is the 3 CD set with selected tracks form this version (which is also a whole lot cheaper).

When I first heard about this collection I was overjoyed, I’ve been a Queen fan for several years, in fact, and sadly, just after Freddie Mercury died. Its interesting to note that I haven’t met a person who hasn’t liked their music, which is probably why Queen are so successful. I have to say that anytime I hear their music I fall in love with it all over again, there is a certain something about it, that makes you feel so good inside (well it does me anyway).

So as the natural progression goes, I started to buy their solo stuff as well, not that there is that much of it about; unlike some bands, the members of Queen grew to respect each other, and they all had an equal footing within the group, they all wrote, played and sang (John Deacon though, only ever backing, (if that)), and each has written a major hit.

As for Freddie, most of his solo work was done in the mid eighties to the early nineties. As it was Freddie was forced to stop touring with Queen due to illness, and so used the time to do some solo stuff while he could, he also worked on Queen albums, and sadly he died on the 24th November 1991.

Freddie has a fantastic voice and is a fantastic singer, his on stage presents is awesome, and he was a prolific song writer and great musician. If there was anybody I’d would want to be, it’d probably be him.

This collection costs around £125.00, which disappointed me a lot because I’d never get it, but I allowed my wife to persuade me to let her get it for me, for Christmas, we ordered it over the Internet, otherwise I think you have to ask the shop if they could get it for you, or make do with the cheaper 3 CD version.

The Freddie Mercury Solo Collection
This Consists of,

Freddie’s three solo albums,
Mr Bad Guy
The Great Pretender
Barcelona

Two Singles Collections
1973 - 1985
1986 - 1993

The Instrumentals
Three Rarities CD’s
The David Wigg Interviews CD

The DVD’s are,
The Video Collection
The Untold Story

And it all comes in a very nice hard back book.

The CD’s
The solo albums are brilliant in themselves, lets face it you all must of heard ‘Living On My Own’ and ‘Barcelona’, two great examples of his solo work. Although I say three solo albums, ones solo, ones with Monserrat Caballe, and the thirds a best of (the American version, the British being The Freddie Mercury Album). So there’s not a lot, the best of has some tracks that aren’t on the other albums, which is why its here, some of his songs also turned up on a Queen album, reworked, which together utilised the last work that Queen were working on.

The Singles Collections, are nice too, they mostly consist of Extended, Single and Re-mix versions of his singles, as well as none album B-sides, the nicest part is the fact that his first single from 1973 is included, ‘I Can Hear Music’ by Larry Lurex.

The Rarities are probably the best part of the collection, much like the Beatles anthologies and such that come out now, these three CD’s contain a lot of tracks that you can only get in this package, including early takes, demo’s, re-mixes, alternative versions, tracks that never made it, music that he did with other people, and one of the best pieces (but not sounding that good), is a live performance of when he was in a band called Ibex , singing ‘Rain’ by the Beatles. So there is plenty of stuff that you want to listen to, to see how the songs developed, hear the early demo’s and to hear ‘new& #8217; songs, being the ones that were never finished.

The Instrumentals are mostly instrumental versions from the Barcelona album, although there are a couple of instrumentals of other songs.

The Interviews are ones with David Wigg stretching from 1979 to 1987. Not great in themselves, but still.

The DVD’s
The Video Collection, the videos are ones from his singles, eleven altogether, again its nice to see. To have them is nice, on DVD is great.

The Untold Story is a documentary, it has been shown on TV, but this version is almost twice as long and its very informative. It tells of Freddie’s life from his early years in Zanzibar, to his later years in England, one thing is that it almost completely leaves out Queen, but if I wanted to know about Queen, I’d watch a Queen documentary. This is however, very interesting and told me things I never knew. Also on this DVD is the Freddie Mercury Photographic Exhibition, which you can view on you PC (if you have a DVD ROM drive)

The Book
The 120 page hard back book comes in a slip case, and the CD’s/DVD’s are inside the covers. The book itself gives you all the information of the music on the CD’s/DVD’s, which is great (details I love). There is a piece of writing about Freddie and the rest of the book is made up of lots of very nice photo’s, taken at various time of Freddie’s life.

Having this Collection is great, it looks great and its a really nice thing to own, as any boxed set of something you like is, this though, is exceptional, its been put together very lovingly and is really worth the price, unlike some quickly thrown together sets.

Quibbles?, well having the CD’s and DVD’s in the book and not having a case for themselves, meaning to listen to them you have to get them out of the book first and have to look in the book for the track listing as well, is a little troublesom e, and the fact that I have two of the albums anyway.................... but really I love it.

Being a Queen completist, I’m now a Freddie Mercury completist, because this seems to have all his work apart from Queen on it, so if you really like Queen you’ve got to get this, its fantastic.

So it has all this, but is it worth the money Fred? Whats the best thing in the rare collection is it stuff that you really cant get hold off, I already have alot? Im not interested in those dodgy eighties remixies:roftl: I have Freds solo stuff in so many formats already I dont need anymore! I think I have about 5 versions of Mr bad guy (inc one i got before it was released here, so an import i suppose)3 Barcelona... It would feel overly self induldant for me to but anymore if there is no a really good reason, any info appreciated:biggrin2:

[jengafer]

[white queen]

I love mine to death! I also love how they give rareties from different parts of his career....like the early years, Mr. Bad Guy, and Barcelona. :)

i love too the rarities, especially from Barcelona...when he sings like Montserrat(i hope i wrote it right...:D)....and i love "Exercises in free love"...very very impressive!!!!!!!!!!:shocked:

[mandilambi]

Welcome to our club, A Gagged Jade Goody! This is th eplace to talk anything about Queen. And then some. :)

A Gagged Jade Goody - Queeniac #28

[Mika Owns Me]

I don't know if this has been asked before but

Which Queen song would you play at your wedding??? (if you get married duh)

strange question I know!

I think I would play... hmm... something funny to make it original. Seaside rendezvous would be cool! .

..Underneath the moonlight, together we'll sail across the sea!!

[mandilambi]

I am probably going to play:

An instrumental of Love Of My Life. Even though this is a song about heartbreak, I think an piano version of this would be lovely. And despite it being a "sad" song, it has a truly sentimental and heartfelt vibe to it, which I have always loved.

I will also be playing I Was Born To Love You (even though this is actually a Freddie song, but still).

I'm sure my wedding reception is going to be crammed with all things Queen, though...LOL!!!

[violetsky]

On my wedding I would play:

You take my breath away
Love of my life
You're my best friend
Somebody To Love
Spread Your Wings
Crazy Little Thing Called Love
Save Me
Las Palabras De Amor
A Kind Of Magic
One Year Of Love
Who Wants To Live Forever
Bijou


You see a lot of Queen on my wedding :roftl: :roftl: I would love to hear all these songs on my wedding althoug the lyrics don't always fit :wink2:


On my funeral I want that they play

The show must go on
These Are The Days Of Our Lives
No one but you

Ok that's a completly different topic :blush-anim-cl:

[A Gagged Jade Goody]

Glad to have joined the club, folks!:biggrin2:

Fairly well Queen-bonkers::roftl:

Two Queen-based myspaces
Queen-based website
Two articles of mine in recent Fan Club magazines with a third on the way, I believe! :biggrin2:

Anyone going to the Fan Club party at the end of June? See link:

[Gothy]

Queen are my joint favorite band of all time, along with Pink Floyd. My mother played me Lily of the Valley as a lullaby when I was a bairn.

Wow! That's so cool! Lily Of The Valley is a really beautiful song! :thumb_yello:

hey Gothy, haven't seen you around for ages :blink:

[Queenie]

As a big Queen fan since i was a child, i think it´s my place to share my feelings about them
Love them, adore them...Specially Brian May :wub2: (you can see i´m a "Mayniac :cool: )

My favourite album is Queen II...without any discussion

Could i join? pleaseeeeeeeeeeee, pleaseeeeeeeeeeee :bleh:

[Ju.Thulc-girl]

haha When I imagine myself getting married (almost never):blush-anim-cl: I always imagine Brian playing it (or just another cute guitarrist).:naughty:

[mandilambi]

Queenie - Queeniac #29! Welcome aboard. You're in good company. :)

[Queenie]

Thanks!! I´m very pleased :blush-anim-cl:

Take care of those you call your own
And keep good company

:bleh:

[mandilambi]

LOL! :biggrin2: :biggrin2:

[A Gagged Jade Goody]

Welcome! :thumb_yello: Always nice to see more Queen fans!

Brian is just...wow...:wub2: Yeah, he's my favourite too! :bleh:

Brian is a really super guy. I've met him twice very briefly - each time I had him to myself for a few seconds and I will definitely always treasure both of those occasions!:yay: :yay:

[Mary]

Brian is a really super guy. I've met him twice very briefly - each time I had him to myself for a few seconds and I will definitely always treasure both of those occasions!:yay: :yay:


AAAAHH! How I envy you...

I'd love to meet him in person! Love him love him love him! :wub2:

[Queenie]

He´s a really great man. I met him everytime he was in Madrid from 3 years or so and he´s always so kind, so warm with me and the other people (but i think he can recognize me :roftl: )

[FairyFeller]

Brian is a really super guy. I've met him twice very briefly - each time I had him to myself for a few seconds and I will definitely always treasure both of those occasions!:yay: :yay:

that's one of my goals in life, to meet Brian and Roger. So whenever the time for Queen + Paul Rodgers to come to Chicago, I'm going to be willing to jump through hoops to see them. :naughty:

[Fmbm]

that's one of my goals in life, to meet Brian and Roger. So whenever the time for Queen + Paul Rodgers to come to Chicago, I'm going to be willing to jump through hoops to see them. :naughty:
Thats my goal in life too! haha

If I don't meet him, I don't know what I'll do. Most likely I'll kill myself

[Gothy]

hey Gothy, haven't seen you around for ages :blink:

Yeah, university is a bitch right now.

[mandilambi]

Just thought I should revive this topic. :thumb_yello:

By the way, anyone heard the song "Someone To Die For"? It's sung by a guy named Jimmy Gnecco and features Brian on guitar. I loves it!

[Blue Sky]

that's one of my goals in life, to meet Brian and Roger. So whenever the time for Queen + Paul Rodgers to come to Chicago, I'm going to be willing to jump through hoops to see them. :naughty:

It's funny how one of my goals at the Tokyo MIKA show was to meet him, but when Queen and PR came here, I never thought that for a minute. They just seem so much more unreachable.

And I will never think I'm gonna meet someone famous ever again, after the crushing disappointment of NOT meeting Mika in Tokyo...I mean, c'mon, I was the ONLY one at the outside performance holding a MFC poster, MTV even put my photo on their website.... and he still didn't speak to me!!! AAAAAH!

Sometimes you have to protect yourself from the disappointments in life. I guess I was mad at myself for not doing that last weekend.

So I will be happy to just continue to admire Queen and Roger and Brian from afar. I did write to Brian a couple of times about WWRY in Tokyo and got onto his web site that way. He really is a lovely person. And I am better off admiring from afar.

[mandilambi]

Aw, I am sorry you were let down by not meeting Mika. I know how that feels. You get your hopes so high that when it doesn't happen, it's almost crushing. But I still say always hold a little bit of hope. You never know, you may meet Brian, Mika, whoever...when you least expect it. :)

[Queenie]

Jimmy Gnecco has a band called ours, very good

I just got one of Ours' albums, Distorted Lullabies... Jimmy Gnecco has an awesome voice. *looks for song he did with Brian on youtube* :naughty:

[mandilambi]

"Someone To Die For" is one of my fave songs...it's really fantastic. :) Just brought it up here since I listened to it the other day!

[Queenie]

Please add me! Queen is the best BAND in the music history!!!! :punk:

I guess I have the advantage of living in the 'home country' but agree that meeting Brian is never a likely scenario. Having said that, I managed it last December - twice in the same week! :biggrin2: At one time, I never thought it possible because I wasn't going to do it by hanging around stage doors, which I've never done in my life and don't intend to start now...so Mika looks an equally unlikely prospect...but I know now that it can be done so maybe one day...:wink2:

Aw, that's a cool vid!

Last week I went to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland. I was pleasantly surprised when I saw an entire section for Queen!

It included:

- The News of the World drumkit - freaking awesome!!!!!

- Freddie's white leather jacket that he wore at Live in Rio '85. I wanted to steal it so badly. Can you imagine me sportin' that??? LOL

- A Red Special replica

- One of John's bass guitars.

- Brian's tunic by Zandra Rhodes

- Two colorful vests that belonged to Freddie (from the 70s)

Like I said: freaking awesome!

[*carrie*]

I just read that Brian is supposedly performing at the Diana concert with Joss Stone! She will be singing Under Pressure and he will be joining her for it. Ugh, I can't stand her, but oh well...at least we may get to see Brian. Hopefulyl Rog will show up too!

[Finkster]

Ooh, I'm a Queenie. haha love queen! :D

And hello again, Mandi!

[mandilambi]

Hello! I think we're playing tag! LOL

[Finkster]

Hello! I think we're playing tag! LOL

Haha, I think you're right!!

Hmm, what's your favourite Queen album?

[mandilambi]

My favorite will always be A Night at the Opera. It was my first Queen album (not including Greatest Hits) and I've also always loved 70's Queen the best. It's such a diverse record...simply amazing... :)

You?

[Finkster]

My favorite will always be A Night at the Opera. It was my first Queen album (not including Greatest Hits) and I've also always loved 70's Queen the best. It's such a diverse record...simply amazing... :)

You?

Ooh, yes! That one was also my first album not including Greatest Hits.
My favourite though is A Day At The Races. It's brilliant!

[mandilambi]

A Day At the Races is a close second with me....really, you could almost say they were a two-piece just because they go by the same themes, in a way. Millionaire Waltz is genius. And Long Away is my fave Brian song. :)

[Finkster]

Yes!! I love You And I, White Man, and Teo Torriatte. Ah, they're so amazing.

I know John only wrote a few songs, but he was an excellent writer!!!
Spread Your Wings is my favourite Queen song!

[Mika Owns Me]

My favorite will always be A Night at the Opera. It was my first Queen album (not including Greatest Hits) and I've also always loved 70's Queen the best. It's such a diverse record...simply amazing... :)

You?

I also love 70's queen the best. the were geniuses!!
I really really love Sheer heart attack... and ANATO

[mandilambi]

Basically all of the 70s albums are above the 80s albums in terms of my favorites! lol You really can't go wrong with their 70s work...it's all great. :)

Hmm...my fave song would be a toss-up between Bo Rhap and Good Old Fashioned Lover Boy.

[TheBlackQueen]

I wonder why I haven't come over until now... I'm The Black Queen, Freddie wrote my March for me, hahaha:roftl: Can I join in, please? I'm def. an extreme Queeniac!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Queenie]

It´s so strange you didn´t come before...

I love all their 70's work of course!
As for the 80's, it was still good! But I think their best 80's album was The Works. I love Is This The World We Created? So meaningful! haha

[vanessa]

Please add me here ,too! I am a Queen FAN since I was a BABY!!! :punk:

[lollypop]

ooh! i haven't see this thread before! add me!! I loove queen ! (especially roger taylor...a god!!)

Thanks mandilambi!! It's an honor to be Queeniac #36 (almost 39, haha).

My favourite is and will ever be Brian, but of course Freddie is (I hate t talk about him in the past tense, as far as I'm concerned, he'll always be alive and by my side) special, the best, the most talented and flamboyant of all rock stars, but I ave this special feeling for Brian.

What are your favourite Queen years? Mine are from Smile to 1980, esp. "Queen II" to "News Of The World".

[Queenie]

Queen II is the best album...*drools*

[TheBlackQueen]

And "The March Of The Black Queen" (MY March:roftl: ) the best song, the origin of "BoRap". BTW, don't you think "Great King Rat" is a sort of origin of "The MArch" in a way? I love "Queen I" as well...

[Queenie]

Mmmm, you´re right. Queen & Queen II were the origins of everything ;)

[TTel20]

Oh just found this thread :blush-anim-cl:

Please add me.

One song I really like is "Bohemian Rhapsody". I also like "THe show must go on" and others. :biggrin2:

[mandilambi]

TTel20 - Queeniac #40 - welcome to the club! :)

My favorite Queen years are '74, '75, and '76. Queen made some amazing music during that time... I just love the charisma in their music in those couple of records. :)

[TheBlackQueen]

TTel20 - Queeniac #39 - welcome to the club! :)

My favorite Queen years are '74, '75, and '76. Queen made some amazing music during that time... I just love the charisma in their music in those couple of records. :)


Yeah, in those years they recorded "Love Of My Life" (my favourite EVER song of all times), "BoRap", "39", "Teo Torriatte", "Somebody To Love".....

[mandilambi]

Not to mention all the songs from Queen II and Sheer Heart Attack! Talk about some great music!

Brian is my fav too.. :wub2: But I love Freddie, John and Roger too! hahha

And.. the albums.. Innuendo and Queen II will probably be my favourites 'til I die !

I don't know why.. but I've been listening to Hot space a lot these last weeks. :naughty:

Honestly, I don't know why people are so tough on Hot Space! I think it's a pretty good album! Not their best, but it certainly wasn't horrible!
I love Staying Power! haha Makes me want to dance!!

Er, not to sound..picky or annoying or anything but I'm not on the Queeniac list on the first page. I was told I was #36. haha
I'll take 40, though!

Haha, thanks!

What's everybody's favourite music video?
Mine are I'm Going Slightly Mad, The Invisible Man, and (of course) I Want To Break Free.

[mandilambi]

Finkster, I'm so sorry I didn't add you! I can't figure out what happened, because I remember assigning you a number. My mistake! I will pm the other girls their new numbers, since you ARE the only #36!

I love Hot Space too. Though I can see why people didn't/don't like it. It doesn't have any of Queen's signature sound and it was put out at the height of when disco was hated. I still enjoy it though. Under Pressure is one of my fave Queen songs and Dancer is so much fun to dance to. :)

My fave video....hmmmmm...I'll have to think on that one.

[Ju.Thulc-girl]

Haha, thanks!

Ohhh, I want to break free :mf_lustslow: !! It's.. it's... WOW. hahaha:wub2:

Then... I like I'm going slightly mad, One vision, Save me...:biggrin2:

[white queen]

hm...fav video....hm...
of course "I Want to Break Free"....:roftl:
and then..."Love of My life", "I'm going slightly mad", and freddie's "In my defence"....:(

[crina]

my all time favourite is THESE ARE THE DAYS OF OUR LIVES for his simplicity and for the big message that was send to people.

Awe,thanks!! It's okay, hah! I understand, these threads move quickly!

Yea, I know what you mean. I can understand why people who grew up with Queen wouldn't like it as much since it wasn't the same Queen they grew up listening to.

I love all of Queen's videos. They're all so creative!! haha

[Finkster]

I made a few quizzes on Quizilla a while ago. haha here's the links to some if you want to take them.

hha yay!!
Awe, what did you get? You can tell us. :) haha

[Slightly Mad]

Hello there!
Here are my results:
#1
Your a die hard Queen fan just like me. You have all their albums and know every little detail about them. You have a million posters and Queen gear, and would do anything to meet them and see them in concert. You just plain rock!

You relate to It's A Beautiful Day. It's found on the "Made In Heaven" album. You are very optimistic and wont let people walk all over you. You will do anything to fullfill your dreams and will do so.

You belong in the "I'm Going Slightly Mad" video. (what a surprise!) You are, well, going crazy, but are quite funny and entertaining. By the way, Freddie looks amazing in this video. (oh yes he does!)

I miss this thread! I haven't been in here in forever!

I took the quizzes, very nice!

- Your a die hard Queen fan just like me. You have all their albums and know every little detail about them. You have a million posters and Queen gear, and would do anything to meet them and see them in concert. You just plain rock!

- You belong in the "I Want To Break Free" video. You are fed up with life and someone, and just want to get away from it all. By the way, nice skirt. ;) (Hehehee!!)
