I like it. It could have easily been on The Works as it's just as good/bad as Open Windows, Treat it up or Man on the Prowl. I can see some resemblance with the main chord structure of Hammer to Fall but I would besurprised if that even played a part on it being shelved.
On the resemblance I'm referring to the whole A - D/A Brian-esque cliche also used on Tear it up, AKOM, WWRY, it's late, etc. Although Let me in its not on the same key you can feel the same vibe and it kinda resembles a slightly slower version of HTF during the outtro.[/QUOTE]
That 'cliche' you're talking about was hardly original with Brian............listen to Start Me Up or Crazy Train (the same chords!).......lol........and Brian even used it in the Brighton Rock 'jam' at the 78 Chicago show.......(awesome recording......one of my favorite Queen shows!!)

Has Auto-Tune been used around the phrase "filled with PAIN" around 1:49.

you have a point. not 100% sure you're right - but something has occurred there

I don't hear it there. The "oh my love, I want you to stay" line sound a little synthetic to me though, but it's hard to tell for sure. If they've used pitch correction in this song, they've done it very carefully. Not like TMBMTLTT, which has MJ sounding like a robot in places.

Bang on, guys.
I'm not entirely certain who first used this riff - Keith Richards or Paul Kossoff in Free (on All Right Now). Any guitar historians here?
I'm not a Stones encyclopedia, but the earliest Stones song I can think of with that riff is Brown Sugar. So is Kossoff the answer? Or is there someone else in the 60s who is responsible?

Wiley (nor anybody else on this thread) didn't suggest that Brian was the originator of the A D/A A lick; rather that for him it became a cliche of sorts. Which is entirely true.
I'm sure guitarists had been using it for decades before Brian popularised it though, although I wouldn't have a clue where you might first find it on record.

I definitely wouldn't say decades. I've studied the evolution of the guitar intently, and the earliest instance of that particular combination of shapes I've found is on All Right Now. It soon became a go-to for Keef.
Like most things, one of those guys probably saw a guy in a pub do it and said, "note to self - cool thing there."

Now that you mention it, i think i´ve read a long time ago that this style was associated with Keith Richards from the stones. But i think the article was talking about the same chords but played an octave higher in the 14th fret with the open A string - a very distinctive sound. It became a Brian signature riff. He even did that on the final of IWBTLY on the last tour with Adam. And it works great!
I don´t know who did it first, and i don´t listen to the Stones, so i can´t say if Keith uses this riff often or not, but it´s associated with him too.

Hi guys, it's my first time on here but I really need your help.
Can anyone explain to me the meaning of "Tell me what you DREAM AT ALL. I'll hold that conversation for you babe"?? Basically "dream at all"
I'm not sure if I understand it. Well... yes i'm sure. I don't...
I would appreciate your help. Thanks.

Doesn't he sing "dreaming of"? With a very american accent that is.
xoaxin
I thought that before I listen carefully and i just can't stop listenting to an "L" at the end.. so.. i don't think it's dreaming of...But you guys confirm that..

I have a question about Let Me In Your Heart Again.
No disrespect meant but:
The top C in it, well, it sounds very very clean compared to any other time Freddie sang a top C (I'm thinking about when he sang 'just a singer with a song', the sing of singer was a top C). I'm wondering if it has been electronically manipulated or if he was having a particularly good day?
I'm sorry if this offends, but perhaps someone here knows? The reason I'm asking is because I know that auto tune can be used these days, and can be so sophisticated that the end listener would never know it was used, and since Freddie wasn't here to correct any notes himself (if, at the age of 68 he would have managed it, perhaps he would though!), well, you know I'm asking how much auto tune was used on it, that's all.
If it's in this thread previously I'm sorry, I haven't sat and read through the whole thing.
