yes i remember that story in the papers years ago.
Freddie was touched that the fan was dying so decided to record a very special song for the fan.
The tape did indeed get put in the fans coffin for ever.
I cant be sure about this but i think the fan died of leukemia.

Surely they didn't give him a full multitrack tape ?? If they recorded this in a studio, then copied the song onto cassette which was given to the fan, can we assume that it's still in the archives ?

I very much doubt that recording is around as freddie would have demanded that the master be erased.
sad because i am as curious as you as to what it sounded like?

The song is "I Can't Dance _ Keep Smilin'"

This story should better be forgotten...some people will have strange ideas like "How long does a magnetic tape can "survive" six feet under" ?
But seriously I `ve heard about that story too. I think Brian has mentioned it somewhere,

Indeed, maybe it' was a mistake talk about it in the first place.

wasn't that 'Keep on smiling' which was released in the Freddie box set?
