Let me in (your heart again)

It ^^^ probably went the same place a "Victory" and a handful of other songs Play The Game (w/Andy Gibb),
and Let Me Live (w/Rod Stewart) - those four songs probably form some kind of "rainy day insurance policy, come pension fund"

i would have been glad if the michael jackson track "Theres more to life than this" was not included and we had more un-released freddie tracks.
by the way what happened to "State of shock"? i thought that would have made it on to the album?

I suspect that SOS and Victory were written by Wacko and as such his estate have more right to stop those being released than TMBMTLTT which was written by Freddie.
Of course, I reckon the reason we can only have the shit William Orbit mix is because Wacko's estate insisted on him being the dominant voice.

What I don't get is how they let out the last Wacko release with Justin Timberlake, since Wacko's vocals aren't the dominant ones (that I can tell)!
They're just being knobs for no reason that anyone can fathom.

Ok, I made video for Let Me In Your Heart Again :) I hope that you will like it ;)

Yep - Brian did mention '3 or 4' MJ tracks at one time - 1 more then we even knew about! We ended up with one that has been remixed by a 'world class' producer and all the good in it has been tweaked out of it for some bizarre reason.

I would bet that either we'll be seeing further Freddie+MJ tracks on another future MJ compilation (the MJ estate needs to keep churning out the product to keep the dollars rolling in) or QP have either decided to wait and release further tracks in the future, as Brenski says, top up the band members pensions funds (again). Or they are still in legal wranglings over the other tracks and couldn't wait any longer to put at least something out there.

I was kind of surprised as well that Brian and Roger didn't decide to do another song together a la 'No-One But You' - with both of them sharing vocals it wouldn't be too bad and if the quality was up to NOBY I would have been happy.

Let's just hope there is some further surprises. I do think its strange that if there are 'alternate' takes of other songs why wouldn't they be more specific in the press release?

To be honest do we really care about the michael jackson tracks = no.
After all this album is all about Freddie and should have lots of surprises on it but just one great track to which i am grateful for at least,
"Let me in your heart" but are all the other classic Queen tracks just that or have they been re-worked?
Roger Taylor claimed the album would contain the "Big Ballads" and "Huge" production that Queen were well known for, but from what i have heard so far
i do think rog is telling fibs? I mean "There must be more to life" is a waste of space and freddies vocals sound like his "out the back" making a cup of tea!

How can a Queen album be just about Freddie's voice? First and foremost it's about the songs, as is any album.

Having said the album is about Freddie's voice you then go on to say that one of the tracks is a waste of space because of the vocal

vocal harmony: One of the tracks "There must be more to life than this" has been spoilt
by that william orbit mix, so in my opinion it is not worthy a place on the new Queen album.
Secondly the point of this Queen album is all about freddies wonderful voice as we all love it,
and everyone is eager to hear freddie on completely new tracks the world has not heard, but by the looks of things
there is only one track un-heard and that is "Let me in your heart again".
Shame nothing more could be found to rescue this album.

So much hate in a thread, and all because one guy had slight critique over a song... How sad that is!

Where and when that song was recorded?

Sheer brass neck: i agree with your comments but when i have an opinion Brenski is very fast to tell me to shut up so
its a case of pot kettle black yeah?
Brenski just likes winding me up but you know what i don't take any crap from him because he is just a <i>wind up merchant.</i>

Speak for yourself, hypocrite.

I was a bit underwhelmed by this when I first heard it, although it was truly great -- very emotional actually -- hearing Fred singing again. After a few listens it's really grown on me. It has the classic Queen sound and it also feels like a complete track and not a demo that's been tweaked a bit.

This song's been lingering in my head since I heard it. Really terrific! Can't imagine how Man on the Prowl made the cut but Let Me In didn't.

Yeah, or Keep Passing The Open Windows.

It would have been nice on Made in Heaven too, That was missing a ballad.

What?! It's 40% ballad! No, but seriously, it really isn't missing any ballads imo.
