Was Mother Love the last song sung by Freddie, i know the last part of the song is sung by Brian, as Freddie was too ill to finish it off, but was it Freddie's last one?
Pretty sure it was the last vocal he recorded, yeah. Not anywhere near as close to his death as some people claim though.
Brian says it was on the These Were The Days of our Lives DVD. A very powerful eerie song!
Freddie`s vocals were finished around november 9th right? atleast that what i hear everywhere...

On this site... on Queenforum.nl even on Fok! And on google, on a lot of sites.

The old Sebastian Debauchery had that date from what i can remember... (Last time i was on there was quite a while ago)
It's possible perhaps that the bulk of the song was recorded at one point but it took a few weeks longer to get pick-ups re-dos etc. Freddie's voice wasn't in great shape at that point. It might be the case that other stuff was recorded, even after, but rejected because of its quality and never spoken of to save off the demands to release Freddie's 'final songs'.
No possible way that it was recorded on November 9th. Freddie flew home from Montreux for the last time on November 7th, and basically came off of the meds @ that point except the morphine. October, maybe. But even that is kinda pushing it...

No, I'm pretty sure it was several months before his death. Him having recorded vocals at all in November seems slightly unbelievable.
Some time between June and October 1991 - I don't think anyone has ever said for certain when.

Yes, would have to be at least a few months before he passed, i dont believe those people who say it was in the November.
