Hi there.

Despite enjoying the a cappella interlude in the excellent "The Prophet's Song," I've always wanted to hear what it would sound like taken out. Here's the result:

Not the way I would have done it but I always thought the 'acacrapa' part ruined the song.

Whats it all about?

The song came from Brian, and he had some of it written and cobbled down on a demo, as most know. The majority of it was finished off and inspired by a nightmare that Brian had around that time, if I remember that correctly. I always liked the middle part because it was part of a story in a way, and kind of a bridge to the next part of the song.

I agree. I also think Mona Lisa would do better if we painted her a moustache.

Interesting, but you've taken out the best part of the song.

BTW, I don't mean to be rude to the person who did the mix. I respect and encourage messing around with Queen's songs. I do so privately since I was 10, and that was 30 years ago :)
I only (tried to) joke with the idea that the song could be improved. It can't.
