So QP have found the lost tape of coming soon and have done the 2011 remaster from this original tape? ////////////////////////
no, no.... I meant the alternative mix included in The Game DVD-A. The one they made due to the missing original tapes (wich we don´t know if are still missing or not). That´s the one I expected in the Bonus EP

If the QP did not find the original tapes, they could use the same mix of DVD-A for the 2011 remaster

The "alternate" Coming Soon can only be heard in 5.1 right? It's been a while since I listened to it...

No - i managed to get a rip of the DVD and VLC played it as a stereo mix. It's basically exactly the same (predating the identical Hot Space rough mixes) bar the intro ooh ohhh oho ohs which have slightly different phrasing. I love this song so much, and this version was interesting, but certainly not essential.

Ah right, thanks. Coming Soon has some nice harmonies. Quite an underrated song, IMHO. Strange lyrics though!

Actually it's not. There's some notable remixing throughout the track. Some vocal parts are missed, then some instrumental parts sounds more prominent.
For example, "take it" lyric at 0:56 is removed and guitar burst at the same time came to the fore.

I don't think that it's correct to call it an alternate, it's more a replacement. Also I wouldn't say that the album version of A Kind Of Magic was remixed because that was the first official mix released, I would say the highlander version was the "alternate"

>Dysan replies: I did say 'basically' - IE it's built on the same album cut, there's no missing opera section :o) It seems to have much more punch, which might actually make it superior IMO
