In 2005, the first tour of Queen + Paul Rodgers, during the opening a tape was played with It's A Beautiful Day [remix].

I used to have a download from the original remix made by a fan named Robert...???
He had / has his own site.
I really like his mix and can't find it anymore.

Some ideas?
We must all see to believe...
I think his remix was remixed and used on the tour.

That's Ross Robberson (If I have spelled his name right) Dubroc, he had for a long period his own website were he posted some of his self made mixes, I have no clue if his site is still up.

Tom
Followed by Eminem's Lose Yourself. I never understand why they choose to use a song by him.
If I remember it right ABBA's "Arrival" has been played as well.
Guten Morgen, sie wünschten geweckt zu werden.
Serious Abba? That must have been in the mix then Vonkeil, I must have missed that...check my bootlegs fot it...
I remember watching a Youtube video, that has since been deleted, of Eminems Lose Yourself playing just before one of QPR's Japan concerts and about half way through it Brian pounded out a few chords from behind the curtains and the crowd went wild.

I think the version you're looking for from Ross Robertson, It's a Beautiful Day/Track 13, was on The Floss Mixes site and it may still be an active site = http://www.flossfm.com/tfm/
Great!
That's the one I was looking for.
His other mixes are nice too...
Thanks, people!

Not heard "Queen" open with Abba's Arrival, but "The Darkness" definitely do, at the beginning of their shows.

Joyful the sound

Because it's an excellent song. And a great way to let people know that they aren't dinosaurs divorced from the present.

I believe eminem used a sample of wwry in one of his songs and the use of Lose Yourself was part of the 'payment' if you like
Bad Seed, you're right. The stomp-stomp-clap beat is replayed famously on 'Til I Collapse, one of Eminem's most famous tracks that wasn't a single.
