The things we are working on
now, at high speed, all have Freddie's voice on them. It's fascinating.
We will have some interesting items ![/QUOTE]

My guess is greeting cards with Freddie singing... :P

Who Wants To Live Forever
I Was Born To Love You
We Will Rock You


Much more interesting than a boring album, right??

oh, what a joy it was if there would be another MIH... [/QUOTE]

Another album like Made In Heaven is easily very feasible - don't forget that most of that was re-recorded and reworked previously released tracks.

What we are mostly getting our hearts set on here is whether there will be a future Queen album featuring ALL previously unreleased stuff.

Sadly I don't think the desire is there though amongst the band for either option.

A bit of a serious post now:


Brian May: "We bring new Queen CD - with Freddie & Michael Jackson songs"

A new Queen CD with unreleased songs Freddie Mercury and Michael Jackson as a guest star. Two Las Vegas concerts with Adam Lambert and the acoustic tour with Kerry Ellis. In WEGOTIT interview Brian May reveals the queen plans!

But there will be a new Queen album: A compilation album is not a greatest hits album. Because now we have been working for some time and there will probably be some unreleased songs that nobody has ever heard. With Freddie on vocals. We have as yet found a couple of songs and fragments. His recordings with Michael Jackson. Because now we have been working for some time

That sounds great now.

A bit of a different translation from a human source not an online translation:


Your queen plans, apart from the two Adam Lambert concerts in September?

Brian May: Two concerts? Really? Perhaps these are two different versions out there. Not really. We wanted to get a TV show going in England, but that is unfortunately not happening. But there will be a new Queen album: A compilation album that is not a greatest hits album. Because we have been working on this for some time now and there will probably be some unreleased songs on it too, that nobody has ever heard. With Freddie on vocals. We have actually found a couple of songs and fragments. Also, his recordings with Michael Jackson. We have been working on those for some time already.


This makes it sound to me that there are the jackson songs and in addition jackson-less songs.

It also seems like the jackson songs might not be a part of the (ballad) compilation - maybe something separate...

I think if they acknowledged that it was a 'left over' album, people wouldn't judge it too harshly, enabling them to release all new (old material). There's more than enough, and that's just the stuff we've heard.

1) Why does the bear have to be dead?

2) Whoa! I did not know anything about this convention d.v.d. thing! That sounds cool!

3) I STILL think that it is time that an audio concert (and more over the next few years) should be released that is not related to a filmed show. Or perhaps even an audio compilation of some sort.

I can confirm from a secret source, that the album already has a name. and whats on it. so at least this thread is true.

This is great news! I hope this project gets to see the light of day soon!!!

Lol!

Finally, fantastic Queen news.
Hope that some unreleased Freddie only material will include on this compilation. For example, Man made paradise. Also some reworked material would be welcome.

Somebody but not you!

Love to hear GT or GB vision on this project. Unfortunately I think they are in position not to say much. But I hope they can saya bit about the 'compilaition' album. Roger indicated that he's not in for 'scraping the barrel'.

What Roger said back then might have predominantly been part of the marketing for this project. I mean after Made in Heaven they said there was nothing left, and 16 years we weren't expecting anything. Then after what Brian and Roger said, we had a hopes first raised and then dashed.

But at the same time they put the MJ tracks on the table. And now it seems they are going to be following though, and it seems that it is not going to be too far before the Freddie movie is released.

Strange how Freddie meets with Jacko and there are a few tracks from those meetings of sufficient standard for release. Yet from the rest of Queen's career, all we have seen to date since Freddie's death is two new tracks and a bunch of reworked b-sides and solo tracks.

I think that's surprising, especially considering how long Freddie seems to have known about his condition. But not impossible I guess.

Anyway, hopefully there are a significant if not a lot more tracks still to come before it truly would become a bottom scraping exercise.
