Let me in, certainty, the other 2 tracks don't know, the rest ballads off the albums, no Jacko tracks, I doubt we'll ever hear them !

wheres all the innuendo stuff? surly May could finish off Self Made Man, so its ANOTHER compilation album is it. Just make it an e.p

I think the biggest issue surrounding this will be public perception.
As much as we would all prefer a proper album full of good quality unreleased material (and by God I think they've got enough), hovering just over the horizon is the inevitable comment from the naysayers that such an album would be an amalgamation of half finished tracks or a mixed bag of dregs from twenty years of recordings.
As such, I think this is the reason we are getting another compilation album, but with a handful of brought-up-to-date and hopefully "hit single quality" new tracks as the main selling point.
Let's all just hope that the rest of the good quality unreleased material actually comes out in the long rumoured (over 20 years now believe it or not!), archive box set....

I'd prefer an E.P. rather than a compilation...
Something like: 'QUEEN'S Final E.P.' 37 years after QUEEN'S First E.P....

Has everyone forgotten about 'I Don't Want To Be A Rolling Stone' with Bowie?
No. We must forget?
I doubt that this track will be on a new album

[b]Would be hard to imagine them releasing a song with such virulent anti-Bowie lyrics. More likely that it will be that awful version of Cool Cat with Bowie on vocals. Eitehr way, it's hard to get excited about anotehr compilation with a rare track or two added to get the dedicated fans to buy it. Depends what they are, of course. Maybe Hangman will make an appearance :)

Hi I haven't read the full thread, which I should have I know....
Regarding the new album, when Mr Bad Guy was recorded, didn't Freddie use Brian Roger and John at first? Weren't the songs going to be Queen songs at one stage? So perhaps they've just decided to use some of these, and why not? It's their work after all, they can do what they like, and most of the public haven't heard the Mr Bad Guy album anyway.
There are tracks like Love Makin' Love, and Falling Out that could be re-worked, but they're not brilliant songs anyway. I think the truth is that most of the best stuff has already been released but I do want to hear what they've done.

Not exactly - Man Made Paradise was included on a draft running order for The Works; an extract from a Queen demo of this song was apparenty played at one of the conventions, but no recording of this has been circulated & there is no information as to whether it was worked on any further.
Also, Greg Brooks has said that a Queen version of There Must Be More To Life Than This was recorded. But as for the remaining Mr Bad Guy tracks, as far as we know these were not worked on with Queen at the time.

Maybe not at the time, but that seems to have been corrected later before Freddie passed on for Made in Heaven, so it would surprise me if the others weren't resung and possibly even worked on together already!

Sorry double post!

Fleshing out largely-instrumental jams - i.e. Robbery, or Face It Alone - in the way Another Little Piece of My Heart was fleshed out into Let Me Live sounds like a good idea. A lot of people like to pick out the so-called dregs, but I figure give the skeleton some more bones and some flesh and you've got a few more songs to add! Brian and Roger can't be afraid of singing some extra verses here and there. I'd gamble a few pieces of Queen memorabilia that FIA lurks in the wings waited to be worked on. QP must be aware of the mysticism surrounding the track by us Queenzoners.
