Las Palabras De Amor: the rejected version.

Being a Queen fan for 40 odd years you think I would know everything, but it seems I don't lol

This was posted up via a Facebook group saying that it was rejected by the band in March '82. We've all heard the 'demo' version, but the question here is, is this real or some bugger playing around?

Knowing who uploaded this, I'd say real.

If you want to download it, check my demos collection.

So this is real?

That's a nice little collection you've got there m8 btw :-)

This one origins from a Hot Space acetate cassette.


Fake or real ? Well you have the double mono effect with the acoustic guitar in the right channel only. So extra vocals by Brian and Freddie , diff ending.

I don't see any option to fake this without the multitracks and the alternate vocal bits

Can you tell why this version was rejected?

Can you tell us why Face It Alone isn't in the Innuendo album?

Ah; Sikke...

This version is quite good for a rejected one.

Very nice. Shame it fades out so quickly at the end.
Thanks Sikke.

It's as real as Roger's white beard.

Freddie's vocal from another in the beginning. Very nice this one. Another pearl by Sikke.

I really like this version! Thanks Sikke

As many other unfinished tracks or demos, FIA was the case. Unfinished ideas can't make it to the final product.
