A question about Australian (?) "Keep Yourself Alive" single

Taken from this site : http://www.discogs.com/Queen-Keep-Yourself-Alive/release/741756

[QUOTE]This version of Son And Daughter has had the word "shit" edited out of the mix.[/QUOTE]

Can anybody confirm this ?

In all my years of collecting I've never seen an Australian pressing of this single ..... it would be as rare as rocking-horse sh*t!

I'll ask around.

Also the song appears to be shorter (3:22)

This one is the New Zealandese Keep Yourself Alive. Might be different from the Australian one. These two records are hard to find. Hope getting them one day...

That's very interesting...

Here are the two labels in a much better resolution.

Where is GT when you need him ? :-)

Are you sure is shorter?? son and daughter from my "keep yourself alive" promo single (is an argentine "relative rare" promo only for radios) is 3:22 long,too but frankly i don´t remember if contains the word "shit"...

OK so I got it already. They simply cut out the "woman expects a man to buckle down and shovel shit" lines off the song. Kinda strange, but interesting :-)

Excuse me, but I don't know your e-mail adress, can you write me at oleggolubkin@rambler.ru ?

I'd like to trade for some stuff, including this edit.
