I read that interview too and it seems that at some point they just changed the name of the song. "The whole house rockin'..." is still a lyric in the song and that was probably the working title. I'm guessing they changed it to fit The Cosmos Rocks Tour and working album title.

Q+PR announcd the tour and album's working title as The Cosmos Rocks on March 19th, 2008, when most or all of the album was completed.

The Q+PR interview was published April 16th, where they spoke of "Whole House Rockin'".

However, its likely the interview took place a few months ahead (unlike newspapers, magazine material is always researched and written months in advance, baring earth-shattering news like 9/11 or tsunamis). So, when the interview was *given*, the song was still "Whole House Rockin' ", after which time, when they needed a name for the album and tour, one idea was "Cosmos Rocks," either coming from the exact chant in the song or the chant being added after the song and album titles were finalized.

Let's all be fair and square, guys and open up: we are all, no-one excluded, desperately waiting for Greg's new book.

We're not interested in new Queen releases anymore. No, we want Greg. That is exactly what we want and need as well. Hell, bring it on.

I've honest to goodness made one of those cut off your nose to spite your face decisions not to buy Greg's book under any circumstances due to his behaviour on this site.  He is completely irritating and undeserving of any kind of reward for it. I would be willing to consider shoplifting the book however, or going over to one of your houses to read it.

Not defending or attacking either position, GF, but it's possible to seperate the man from his work.

Many artists, actors and writers are complete douchbags, but they create quality works.

Wagner, for instance, was antisemetic, arrogant, dishonest and generally a dick, but holy hell, his Ring cycle is operatic genius! You all know at least one piece: "Ride Of The Valkyries"

I'm not saying Greg Brooks is anything other than a man doing a job, though I know many people here take issue with him. I have no problem with him.

Exactly!  That's why I am willing to shoplift it.  

If you don't want me to go over to your house you can just say so without hiding behind Wagner.  Jeez.

"If you don't want me to come over to your house..."

Come over to my house...?!

What the hell are you talking about?

Why are you so angry?

"Hiding behind Wagner"...?

What???

Wow. I'm stunned by this incoherent reaction by GF.

Stunned, I tell you.

Perhaps the logo for Queenzone should be an elephant.  Us Queen fans have long memories  :-) On the other hand, maybe it should be a giraffe because our necks have become very long from looking forward for things to come out from QPL  :-)

Well I DEFINITELY WILL buy the book ! And I'm serious !

This kinda reminds me of the latest Steve Carell and Paul Rudd movie. If you know its title, then you get my point...

Does anybody knows e-mail Gregory Brooks or Jim Beach?
