Queen Archivist Greg Brooks will also be returning and curating a specially expanded ‘The Miracle’ cabinet in the Queen Studio Experience. The new display will be making its debut on the party weekend - you guys will be the first to see it!
“The Miracle was always a favourite of mine. It contains familiar tracks that most people have heard, but also some lesser-known gems like My Baby Does Me and Was It All Worth It. Aside from the musicality and the poignant aspects of certain songs, I always think of that album in terms of its striking and impactive imagery. There is much wonderfully diverse memorabilia from The Miracle and its five singles, and therefore it’s a natural choice to make a special fuss of. I plan to unveil quite a few more rarities, some never exhibited before. The Miracles will occur on the ninth month!" - Greg Brooks
What do you all reckon on this?? Taken from queenonline.com.

Rarities never exhibited before probably means stuff we have heard on bootlegs/unofficially, don't get too excited.

As mentioned in the Queen Talks interview, they recorded about 30 (finished?) songs for the album. However, that number most certainly includes tracks we know about and probably some that got reworked for Innuendo, Made In Heaven and solo projects. Still, I'm sure there are some gems yet to be discovered.
Does he mean September then? I guess I will forget until it happens.

The Miracle has some awesome tracks but also some of their worst like Rain Must Fall, My Baby Does me, Party; Khashoggis Ship or Invisible Man

Not finished as Freddie said in the 1989 BBC interview. More like starting ideas like "Guess we're falling out" which is far from finished

Party & My baby does me were fillers on The Miracle and the sad thing was they had loads more songs to choose from but ignored them

A few years ago Sebastian posted an interesting piece about this, in his post these "30 songs" very quickly became a lot less in number.
There was a time when everyone who hadn't release an album for more than two years were aparently recording none stop! Metallica once claimed they'd written and tracked 60 songs for St Anger, I believe it was. In reality it was probably a number of riff ideas on a DAT recorder.

I'd love to read that! However, I don't think we know all there is to know about The Miracle sessions.
I guess those numbers don't usually mean complete songs, we would have found out about some more tracks at this point... or maybe not? Anyway, there was also a mention of 25 tracks recorded for Blue Rock and their producer choosing 10 for the album, but perhaps that happened before they finished them. Perhaps "Heartland" was initially discarded or maybe they came up with it after the album was done.
