Songs that took on a new life when played live

Some Queen songs really found a new lease of life when played live. I'm thinking here of WWRY (fast). Spread Your Wings, Love of My Life, 39 and A Kind of Magic. Spread Your Wings is fantastic live. Apparently they did two different versions, the Livekillers slow tempo and on the American leg of the NOTW tour, a version similar to the 1977 BBC sessions, when they quicken the tempo at the end of the guitar solo. Great stuff!

Somebody to love.

Radio Ga Ga.

I presume we need to keep this to songs that were not particularly great on record, but sparkled live, as opposed to just out favourite live tracks?

Staying Power
Keep Yourself Alive
A Kind of Magic (which is almost a complete reimagining as a mid paced rock number, as opposed to the very much pop single)

brighton rock,  love of my life, somebody to love, radio ga ga, a kind of magic....Brighton rock for it's much longer guitar solo.......love of my life for obvious reasons...one of my all time favorite tunes in studio and live.......A kind of magic is a good pop song in the studio, but live turns into a epic 70's styled gem

staying power.and it,s late ..it,s late live.very rocking and heavy.

I agree with staying power...A decent studio song is so much heavier live.

Crazy little thing called love - for the long solo at the end.

Now I'm Here

"Hammer to Fall" and "Stone Cold Crazy". I never cared for either one in their studio versions, but they sound really awesome when played live!
