Believe me, I would like to also learn about the full version of the song "face it alone" and to hear the full version of this song.

The thing about Face It Alone is that it is not one song, but many versions of a song. There are the two versions that have been shared, and I believe that the full convention tape has another version as well.

this questions stays over 15years...

QP bad managers

what you have to bear in mind is that FIA - like many of the demos/outtakes circulated - are demos/outtakes because they weren't deemed good enough or didn't fit in with the recordings the band were making.

therefore, - apart from curiosity value - most of the circulated outtakes are not great by queen standards.

in fact, i would go so far as to say that the early stuff is the stuff of some "genuinely listenable" value.

so no one really knows if the song is completed and EXIST as full song.. .i mean we know about this youtube audio... but that's demo.. what i (and i think most of us) would like to know if the real-complete song exist or it all stayed onto that demo we heard...

1. We know it exhists
2. Yes, more of it exhists.
3. Yes, a lot of people actually have the full version, even people who you think are "jerks" and "jokers"
4. No, the song was never completed, and if you listen to it ten times, it's more boring than anything Queen have released... except maybe for 'She Makes Me'

1. and 2. - right
3. and 4. - false

Judging by the demos we HAVE heard, Face It Alone is nothing special. It's one of those things that people have built up to be something it could never hope to be.

I love the bits that David Fuller has put up on YouTube of Face It Alone...it's got great, melodic guitar, with that sorta of Egyptian feel Brian sometimes did around the Innuendo era...along with a beautiul super-melodic vocal from Freddie.  I hope we get to hear the full version one day.

I always loved the guitar on this one. It was an interesting idea to have vocals and lead guitar together. I would have liked to have seen it taken further.

actually there are rumors that this song has been finished and that what we hear is just one of demo's of it, basically, early demo of the song that has been completed.

maybe we will hear it when Anthology comes out?
