Which headline would excite you most....

i) John Deacon reunites with Queen for a new Greatest Hits tour.. (vocalist not yet known/decided)

ii) Queen to release a new 12 track album with all new Freddie Mercury vocals... (no tour)

Well Mooghead, if I had the choice, I really would like a 12 track album with all new Freddie Mercury vocals, like to add to that John on bass.....

Tom

Ok.. John is playing bass in option 2...but will never be seen in public..

The second one probably, but both are impossible for obvious reasons. Actually, I honestly wouldn't mind a Q+AL album, but that didn't work out too well last time with Paul Rogers. It wasn't even that bad, just wasn't really advertised and didn't sell well.

Now that I think of it, if they went with no extra singer, just Brian, Roger, John, Spike, maybe Rufus, it would be perfect. Although a GH tour with that... yeah, no, option 2.

"but both are impossible for obvious reasons"

Play along.. I know, its a rhetorical question...

For longevity's sake, probably a new album with previously unheard vocals and stuff.
But to see the 3 guys on stage together after so long.... Would be hard to turn down wouldn't it? ;)

New album, as long as it's handled right, so no auto tune a la Let Me In Your Heart Again, or digitally changing notes like in the 2014 version of Love Kills. And no William Orbit

Gerry/Rugby guy.....blah....blah....

Got banned for good!

Are we sure LMIYHA is pitch corrected?

I believe it is. Not throughout, but on the high notes it sounds just a bit digital.

I agree, they probably are, but it's not obvious enough for us to be certain IMO.

No AutoTune in 2015? Almost impossible, in my sad (and I really really hope wrong) opinion.

As Option 1 is a 'Greatest Hits' Tour and I am tired of Break Free / Ga Ga etc. over and over again I would go for Option 2.

Moreover a Tour will hapen and be gone while a new
Album would last forever.

I assume your scenario is about a Made in Heaven II like
album...

Neither. I'd be excited about 'Queen release multi-tracks for all their albums.'

Definitely option 2. And Orbit says he is going to be working on more material, whether we like it or not. But 12 tracks? It would be nice if there were that many, and since Brian said he can use bits to make songs, it can't be ruled out I guess. More like 3 "new" tracks and 9 not so new Queen versions I would think (ie a true MIH2 rather than a QF2)..
