The Doctor talks about You Don't Fool Me, again

You never noticed that?! Damn son!

The most recent 'hey I never noticed that' moment I had with Queen owes to the Mother Love exhibit in Montreux. I never noticed it but at the end the line "to make me feel my life is headed somewhere" - as he tails off of 'somewhere' there's a tiny vocal trill where the melody goes up. Sublime stuff, never really heard it until the vocal was exposed.

^ you never noticed that?! Damn son!

Ha, now we're even.

Indeed, it's exquisite.

Hi The Real Wizard

I think you probably implied I was a dickhead on a previous post but I forgive you.

The weirdest thing about You Don't Fool Me is how the producer/engineer some how doubles or trebles the introducing guitar and tries to detune some of the takes to make it sound to an amateur like it is an "archive" guitar track when it ain't and it is just some jerk adding chorus and detuning some of the takes to make it sound like it is archived.

As for the guitar riff to "Mother Love" well I really would be spilling the beans on that if I told you how that riff came about but I am too nice to let this one slip.
