I wish there were a bunch more songs Queen did live with Freddie.

Fun It
My Fairy King
I Go Crazy
Gimme The Prize
Princes Of the Universe
Funny How Love Is
Long Away
All Dead, All Dead (This Would Sound Top Notch)
Jealousy
Dancer
Tenement Funster
Seaside Rendezous
Marriage Of Dale And Ming
In Only Seven Days

Dancer would have been awesome!

Interesting that you pick 4 tracks Freddie didn't sing lead vocal on the studio versions, and one instrumental. It would be nice to have heard Freddie sing some of Roger and Brian's vocals, but I would rather hear Roger on Tenement Funster and Brian on Long Away.

Dead On Time, Jesus, The Night Comes Down, yes, Fun It (loved it since I first heard it in '78), Princes of the Universe(it would have killed Freddie's voice though), The Show Must Go On

To be fair, Fun It was done live as an intro to KYA a few times.

I wept when I saw Roger doing Tenement Funster live in '99. So unexpected. My childhood right there in front of me on stage.

Coming Soon gets my vote.

I would have loved to have heard Ride the Wild Wind and Innuendo live. Sadly couldn't happen but that's my fantasy pick.

Good choices.

I'd also add my vote to The Night Comes Down and also Mad The Swine.

Isn't it rumoured that Fun It was performed once in its entirety in 78' ?

The Night Comes Down was performed live..the question is whether the recording exists... There was a hand-written setlist from the 1972/73 that proves that many songs from the first album were performed live.

There is also a rumour going on that Jealousy was performed as an intro to Don't Stop Me Now

Many recordings... If they will see the light of the day will uncover much of the Queen live mysteries.

I Want It All would be extraordinary.

Like, mind-blowing live.

What a shame we never got that one.

The Show Must Go On, yes.

Innuendo might have been a tricky one live.

I love Was It All Worth It. I'd have loved to have seen that done.

And I've always liked Scandal too. Maybe that could have worked live.

I also like Freddie's singing on Cool Cat and Pain Is So Close to Pleasure.

Both could have been difficult to replicate live, but man, I'd have been up for it.

Would have loved to hear an extended version of Don't Try Suicide. They could have stretched that one 30... no 35 minutes. Freddie's 6 minute yodel, Brian's 9 minute ukelele bit... John's 16 minute double bass solo and of course Roger kicking the shit out of a tambourine while being hoisted 20 feet in the air. Fucking. Epic. Dazed and Confused... eat my ballz.

I would like that they have played some of his solo songs from Mr. Bad Guy, especially I Was Born To Love You and Man Made Paradise.

^^^ The slow version of I Was Born To Love You would have been great live and maybe the stripped back Love Kills.
