New Roger Taylor track & 2010 tour.

Great news!
I only hope that the "Queen will tour again" has nothing to to with Adam Lambert.

@ Hutchence: That's Zagi, right?

Oh how exciting!   A new Roger Taylor track...and yet....it is political...which 99% ruins the song.    How horrible.    Even if it is of my own political persuasion.    Political songs not only are the worse but get too dated as well.    I hope that this is not for any new compilation....

I tend to agree with AlexRocks.  Never been a huge fan of political songs.  I want to hear Rog singing about women, cars and hangovers!  You know, the heavy stuff!  haha  Regardless, it is still good to have a new Rog song.

Yeah, I think more is learned about Afghanistan from simply reading a few reliable sources and then drawing one's own conclusions.  Better yet, you could go there and be a suave Sean Bean kind of hero.

[/QUOTE]Roger why don't you write about something really compelling?  Maybe a song where you list all of the different positions you nailed the Breakthru chick in??  I bet that was one hell of an acrobatic evening![/QUOTE]

I don't think it's a good idea for roger to write about sex and drugs at the ripe age of 60. lol.

Well maybe he should.
Fun In Space is a great album, and Starnge Frontier has some great songs on it.
Happiness & Electric Fire pale in comparison :(

He proved with Cosmos Rocks that he can still write "proper" songs, so I hope we get more of the same.

the new Roger song and the UK tour are good news, I hope he come also to Italy!

I would be very happy for a new Queen + tour but not with talent show singers!

Yes, that's the good old Zagi...!

Pollitical songs sound right on Arty. He can write whatever he wants.

Well, Fun In Space and Strange Frontier pale in comparision to Happiness and Electric Fire, imo ;P

By jiminy, this could be embarrasing. In remembrance week too. There's a time and a place for "issues" in music, but Queen are in danger of becoming that charity/aids/"issues" band that everyone hates. And let's face it, Roger doesn't have the writing skills to construct a song about weighty political issues. Hopefully, six and half minutes of this will be a drum solo, and the other 30 seconds, Roger trying to rhyme something with Afghanistan.

Ha ha!  My money is on a typical Roger line of "you've got Afghanistan going down the pan"

Remember, you heard it here first!!

Perhaps he'll update 'We didn't start the fire':

Ayatollahs in Iran, Americans in Afganistan.



My initial excitement at seeing the title thread has vanished...

The fact that its meaning is political does not necessarily mean that it's in-your-face political.

Call me crazy, but maybe we should hear the new track before critiquing it.

"fall out between Brian & Paul"- our Doc showed his temper :)
Roger's single- sounds like good news, we'll see...
Queen will tour again - and it makes me wonder.... about line-up...
