Yep, it's a semitone.
And that's analog tape for you - if you slow it down, both pitch and speed are affected. You can only separate the two digitally.

Not sure if the bit about analogue tape was specifically addressed at me or not, but I'm well aware of that, and possibly wasn't particularly clear. I meant that - particularly on TGB - the tempo feels even slower than it should be if it was only lowered/decreased by a semitone.
Not that it really matters!

This is why as a former sound guy; you MUST call up the stagers and staffers to determine what's being used. Even though it was mimed...this couldn't have gone much worse for the "performers" unless it sped up like Milli Vanilli...or warped
This must be what quaaludes were like

Yep, Freddie was a real pussy when it came to taking the stage. That's why he never did live vocals in front of large audiences.

I read somewhere (I forget where) that Freddie's voice was too weak to sing live at this stage, hence the lip-sync.
