All dead, all dead by freddie mercury on the radio

Tune In! All Dead, All Dead (Raw Sessions version) with Freddie on lead vocals is to have its first radio play on BBC Radio 2 on Thursday 26th from 5pm on the Simon Mayo Drive Time Show.

Just beat me to it Lol. I posted this too!

Cant wait to hear it. Never heard it before.

The boxset is now getting less and less impressive to buy.

I do wonder what the point of this exclusive is.

No doubt this will be a lovely listen with Freddie's vocals on a great melody

But I can't see many casual Radio 2 listeners thinking 'bloody hell I need to fork out over £100 to get hold of that'.

Unless of course QPL are planning a 2 disc version as hinted elsewhere. And are holding back the announcement in order to get as many box set orders in first.

Both are just a promotional tool. I'm sure few people outside of this forum know the history of NOTW etc. I think it will certainly gain some mainstream interest from these channels. Weird choice of song, mind.

"I do wonder what the point of this exclusive is"

To promote the imminent release? Raise awareness? Get proper Queen back on the radio?

I do wonder what the point of asking such a stupid question is?

Will this be accessible in the us?

Yes. Just go to https://www.bbc.co.uk/radio2

I can't wait to hear this. Have never heard it before but have heard it spoken of many times.

Memories, my memories
How long can you stay.....

Anyone actually hear this? It's not listed in all of the songs played during the Drive Time program.

^^^ The program doesn't start until 5:30 today. UK time. Not sure what you've been looking at.

Apologies - thought it was on yesterday......

Pffff, im looking the whole day ??
