^ To me, that different takes in TMBMTLTT, are made from the original takes + AutoTune. To me, that are unreal "new" takes.
I would love to see the BM+RT mix in the CD 2. To make it really deluxe.
Also, I will love to hear a bit of those different takes.
So I'm agree with you, Mr. Baboolal.
EDIT: Maybe, if Bri and Rog make like Brian made with I'm Scared, they will release the BRI+ROG mix in a single.

Some people are already writing to Will. Orbit (bashing him) and to Brian (alarming him and convincing to do sth e.g. with suggestions of pulling this mix out of the release).
If I'd be someone in charge of the whole Queen Forever project and faced such situation in which I'd have to put this particular mix, then I'd release W.Orbit's mix on cd 1 and Queen's mix on cd 2 and underlined it graphically so people would see what does it mean to treat one's work seriously and with respect (we can assume that Brian's mix of TMBMTLTT is wayyy better than what we've heard from Mr Orbit).
I'm really disappointed that we have here *for real* only one unreleased track and two reworked. The whole bloody project was announced back in 11' or even earlier. They had plenty of time to rework "I guess we're falling out", "face it alone", FM demos from the Solo Box-set etc. On the other hand Queen extravaganza, Kerry Ellis and Adam Lambert have gone in the way so it is what it is and not what it could be.
Do you think we can (by comments, response) change the tracklist as we successfully did it with the deluxe edition of the Miracle (2011 remaster) ?

I think "I guess we're falling out" and "Let me In" goes together so well, but ....

How fricking stupid do you have to be to get excited about this stinking pile of crap!?!?!?! I was so excited about a new Queen album with unheard stuff and what do we get?
One new song, one reworked song and one ruined song. And all the rest is stuff everyone's head at least a million times. What kind of sick piece of shit does this to the fans?!?!?!
They could have easily created a new album with unheard/realtively unknown tracks and this is what they release!

I want to hear the new tracks but it says they're not available in your country on you tube . Any one have links to where I can hear them, or at least point me in the right direction???
Thanks

Completely mastered loud to shit. So I guess I'm buying 3 new songs and a bunch of songs I already known, but mastered worse. I was looking forward to this.

I'm dissapointed with Queen Forever. But it is my own fault, i expected an album full of unreleased B-Sides and reworked obscure songs and bits.
Things like Silver Salmon, Face It Alone, Hangman and the likes of these. I think QP is waiting a few years to do that.
Let Me In Your Heart Again is great but it seems like is the only excuse to buy the album.
mike hunt · Member since
At least let me in your heart again is really good, hopefully they release it as a single so I could buy that one track. That vocal performance is excellent

I agree with the poster that said the 2nd preferred version of TMBMTLTT should have been included on the 2nd disc of the 'deluxe' version of the album as they sure have the disc space and unless they are releasing 'alternate' takes of 'well-known' songs I'm sure we'd all prefer to listen to that then one of eighteen tracks we've already got (possibly many times over!)
I just think recording isn't really where they're at anymore. The enthusiasm has either diminished or gone completely. We all know this project has been going since at least 2011 and there has been much talk about how excited Brian was to be working with this stuff and the wonder of pro-tools. Surely there must be other stuff on there that shows this off?
I also find it a bit laughable that 2 members of a band that is as big as Queen either don't have the confidence or balls to go with their own preferred mix of a track and decide to go with a trendy producer instead hoping it will appeal to the 'kids' out there.
I still think LMIYHA is great though and would have suited The Works perfectly if it had been included.

I agree, those old unfinished songs and a few new songs would have been great. Even a better version of the Jackson track. It's a shame because Queen Forever is getting mentioned on the radio here in Ny as something interesting. the Jackson duet is bringing attention to this release, unfortunately, this version of the song sucks. the original was pretty good. A missed opportunity
