It’s scary to hear Freddie Mercury singing an unreleased song recorded over 30 years ago with Queen

It’s scary Face it aloneit has been in storage for so long – over 30 years, to be exact. Recorded in 1988 for the band’s 13th album, titled The miracle, the song went out of the archives and was forgotten from the set.

But in practice this is not the case, of course, and Face it alone is owned by the remains of the group and the heirs of the singer and the record company Universal Music, which issued a statement on the release. “It’s the first new song with Freddie Mercury released in over eight years,” he explains. The last time something like this happened was for the 2014 album Queen Forever, in which three new songs appeared in the voice of Mercury, Let me enter your heart again, love kills And There has to be more to life than this.

Brian May, the guitarist of the group, says the following in the same material: “After all these years, it’s good to hear the four of us.” Face it One, he reveals, is a “great song that has never been over … until now”. Universal claims that “the existence of the song was first revealed in a BBC radio interview.” For drummer Roger Taylor, Face it Alone is “a little gem of Freddie”. And he is right.

The song will be on the disc which will be released on November 18th, a remaster of the album The Miracle. The new edition will arrive in “a luxurious eight-disc box Queen The Miracle Collector’s Edition“, indicates Universal Music. The material will contain recordings of the band’s” frank conversations on the studio floor in London and Montreux “, where” the creative process of the four members and the joy, the jokes and the jokes “will be revealed.
