As promised, here they are.
Corrections are welcome and will be appreciated, direct insults will be ignored.
Trigger warning: I refer to Mercury as 'Frederick' rather than 'Freddie', to May as 'Brian' rather than 'Bri', to the chief engineer as 'Michael' rather than 'Mike', to the tea-lady as 'Elizabeth' rather than 'Betty', etc.

Yeah... it wouldn't hurt to actually upload the bloody file!
You forgot to mention the echo remains of counting to four at the beginning of the track
Thanks Sebastian! Greatly appreciate your work and general attitude as expressed on this forum. Also, trigger warnings have been proven to be ineffective which of course was to be expected.
Trying to protect peoples feelings instead of helping them to develop a resistance against those self destructive emotions will always fail.
Keep up the good work and I sincerely hope that eventually you will provide us with this type of analysis for every Queen (and maybe even solo) song.

I didn't - that's just not too relevant - IMO - when it comes to deconstructing its stems, same as anecdotal details such as the concert which allegedly inspired Brian, the 5ive cover, etc.

If stems and multitracks keep leaking, hopefully that'll be the case!
Thanks for your kind words as usual.
Great work, Seb!
Thank you Sebastian.
Cheers Seb. Top job as always mate.

You know what - it's been bugging me for years and years what that is on the intro. Thanks for the extra detail.
Another nice breakdown Seb.
yeah, pretty important aspect of the song
Great reading thanks Sebastian. Packed with info, well researched and presented.
Sebastina
Thank You
Thank You
Still, haven't found an instance of Mike Stone having the birth name Michael.
Is it a matter of public record?
Can't find my Frederick Mercury Album either. Mine must be a bootleg. Sunnuvabitch. After all these years they sold me a bootleg. Too bad that store has been closed 12 years, or I'd get my money back

It's a matter of general knowledge that most (not all) people who go by Mike or Mick are named Michael. Of course, you can always have someone whose birth certificate and/or passport does say Mick or Mike or Nobby or Jimmy, etc., but those are the exception. Statistically speaking, I'm playing it safe by regarding 'Mike' as someone whose name is 'Michael'.
