Alright fellow Queenzoners, I have made a very nice find but yet also a previously unknown find in the process when I recently purchased a Capital Records acetate CD-Single of the Queen + Robbie Williams "We Are The Champions" remake on Discogs:
https://www.discogs.com/Robbie-Williams-Queen-We-Are-The-Champions/release/9259301
The release, which I will share with you all in FLAC format, contains the Main Radio Mix which I know several prefer to the main version found on the "A Knight's Tale" soundtrack, but which we've only ever had shared on MP3 format until now.
What NOBODY else, as far as I'm aware of, has ever known was that there is another unheard alternative mix, the "Rock Radio Mix," which has NO orchestra in the mix and there are also some other subtle mixing differences compared to either of the other versions which eagle eared listeners among you will surely find some surprise in hearing on your first listen :) :)
And with out further ado, Merry Fucking Early Christmas ya wee bastards :D

So with this find, we can now officially say that there are four versions:
Soundtrack Version
Video Version (same as the Soundtrack Version with extra dialogue)
Main Radio Mix
Rock Radio Mix

Yeap, just that bit from the Killer Queen documentary aired on Channel 4 around 2003
And this is the label on that promo CD
Yeah, I'll be giving that disc artwork a new scan tomorrow :)
