Spread Your Wings buried alternative vocal

If you listen to the rear channel mix of the song, or without the center channel, you can faintly hear the lead vocal. What stood out to me was that on the last "pull yourself together", a slightly different vocal melody is audible. He hits Bb4s on "PULL YOURself toGETHer" as opposed to the normal vocal, where "together" does not have any Bb4s. Has anyone else picked up on this?

In the old days we'd have a lot of fun with the 'karaoke' button on 90s hifis. You'd hear all sorts of cool stuff.

Ah the Karaoke button. That brings back memories!

Of all the Queen songs the Karaoke button really worked on it is Long Away. The vocal COMPLETELY disappeared.

When it comes to hear Brian singing the karaoke button or the skip one are a must.

In my days I had to fast forward the reel tape. Not on Long Away, but when he patented the "wounded animal" trademark on All Dead..., Sleeping... and Leaving Home... I had to replace the belts more often.

This is interesting, thanks for this. I was listening to the bass track for Don't Stop Me Now the other day, and if you turn the volume right up you can hear a guide vocal with different melodies and unfinished lyrics.

True that, I may have mentioned it in a thread years ago but sometimes the most interesting things are when things go quiet and you can hear a bit of headphone bleed and other stuff going on in the background

Another slightly less interesting bit. If you cut the center channel on Save Me, you can hear Freddie break on "I have no HEART"

There are lots of faint harmonies happening in the background of Coming Soon but I've never seen anyone attempt to isolate them, and I don't have the chops for it.

Matt's alternative mix was pretty cool.

Thanks for the link. Yep, all Matt's stuff is good.

If you play the song backwards, you get some very interesting Albanian sounding curses! I like!

Anybody please have Matt's stuff up on a current link?

That was amazing stuff back when
