Hmmm.
Dodgy lyrics, saying something about the world today. Must have been written by Roger.
I keep saying that Brian should write them and Roger should sing them!
As a taster for a forthcoming album it's not a good start for me. It'll bomb in the UK if it ever gets released as a single.
I can't even see it as album material.
I hate to say it, but it's shit.
I've only heard it once and I've already relegated it to the bottom of my playlist below that appaling dirge "She Makes Me".
Christ, I hope they don't perform this on tour.

Roger singing "The Call"... *gulp* don't even try Big Rog' !
"I-I-I-I-I knowwwwwwww, that she makes me...."

@ Thomas Tønnesen
I) imo. the bassline should be more than repetition of the guitar riff.
II) the chorus is based on one note. therefore a little groove would be fine. :-)
simple as that. sorry.

I see your point. But I guess the bass line is deliberately laid that way, to support the structure of the song. I think they want a punching, though easy played bass line during the refrain, but I might be wrong.. Other than that I think it works in my opinion.... Subjective :)

I Wanna Be A Rockstar, eh? :P
That song's OK, but my co-workers play it too much on their iPods, so it's kind of annoying to me. I can only take enough of the lead singer's voice (by the way, I met them once during a Juno fanfare event 4 years ago on April 4th, incidentally!)

Christ, I was all excited about the new song until I came on here, it's depressed the fuck out of me now!
A new song, which was a rocking effort, nice work from Brian, great beat from Rog, Danny Miranda's bass line was fine (pay attention, there's a couple of nice fills after the chorus' here and there), Paul's voice was absolutely superb, his face is also getting nicer with age, Jamie Moses did one nice fill, and Spike Edney clapped his hands a bit... and all we do is complain.

It was our goal. We didn't want GKS to be so excited about the new song so we've started few threads here and there. Work is done, guys! Dismissed!

Haggis McShagpants, re:
>>I'll get back to you when I find out what an Idion is.
An Aussie dishing out English lessons? Ha ha. Excellent. That's almost as funny as Lleyton Hewitt trying to...well, Lleyton Hewitt.
If you knew anything about my history here, you'd know that I often insert a delierate spelling mistake in a post that questions an opinion, simply to see if someone is pernickity enough to pick it up and make an issue of it. You hit the jackpot, so well done.

Just read the words you're using yourself... 'effort', 'nice', 'fine'... Excellence can't be described using those adjectives.
Considering this song an 'effort' cannot be enough for a band which, back in the days, used to write masterpieces. Efforts are for wannabes not for former masters.

Absolutely true Vadenuez. Even when they fucked up with Body Language, and to a lesser extent Radio Ga Ga, a new release from Queen was always highly anticipated. Their lead singles from ANATO on were operatic rock, gospel, a cappella vocals with stomping on wood for side A, and side B a rock waltz, a schizophrenic song about bicycles in 4 or 5 different time measures complete with a bicycle bell solo (on an album where the opening track was virtually unintelligible due to the limited English sung), a rockabilly tune as a teaser for the Game that didn't sound like the Queen from the first seven albums, the what-the-fuck and who-the-fuck was that Body Language, finally ending with the sparse techno sounds of Radio Ga Ga. All different, all kind of shocking hearing them as not a lot of rock bands had this type of stuff in their catalogue. By contrast, C-lebrity is a by the numbers major chord rocker which all 3 have done amillion times. It's nice. No one is going OMFG, this is amazing stuff!!! For a teaser for the album, it hardly builds confidence. The lyrics are painful and trite. I fully expect everyone to bow down and love it, but really, and this has nothing to do with Freddie vs. Paul Rodgers, but this song is mediocre at best.

That's hilarious. I suppose you employ tactics like this to stay virtually undetectable in the field?
If brass balled, pedal to the metal Stupidity were an arm wrestling match, then your post just snapped your other posts arm in half.

Stunning - coming from someone hiding behind a pseudonym.

Wonderful metaphor - perhaps you can advise me on which arm is best as you, clearly, have so much experience in this field?
Oh - you also need an apostrophy before the final s in "posts". Bwa ha ha!
