I've so far watched the first half (school's LAN connection is SO friggin' slow).

It's OK, a bit weird. I find it comical that Brian and Roger are in there for a second or two. I just do
*didn't like the new pepsi/queen commercial*
Love me, that's all I ask of you
don't get too excited, it's just an ad meant for "kicking the can sales all over the place" :)

read my sig......I swear this is so embaressing !
that's enough about me, now, what do you think of me ?
What a relief they won't be showing the ad in America.

If the plot of the WWRY musical is about a rebellion against prepackaged pop, why bother with Pepsi in the first place? Is money really that important, after such a long and successful career?

Well I saw it, not too impressive. Just poppyness fodder for soft drinks.

7Innuendo7, supposedly the plot of the musical is similar to Rush's 2112 concept album, and a bit similar to Styx's Mr Roboto venture.

Thank goodness that the ad isnt going to air. However, I can bet that it will be featured in your local cinemas. I remember that in some local cinemas here, the ad that Becks and the Sumoes did for the World Cup did for Pepsi still airs. Quite a funny one actually.

The edited version was in ITV last night. The intro is shorter, they come out and drop their weapons, Pink shouts and then they begin the final chorus, which sounded different. I'm not quite sure why - I had a feeling the guitar sounded different, or it was at least easier to hear it in this version. Not quite sure how long it lasted as I didn't time it, probably somewhere between 30 seconds and a minute.

Also, Brian and Roger don't appear in this version.
i thought it was a bit of fun. it was good to dee the interviews with Beyonce and especially Pink saying how much they loved Queen. not sure what the fuss is about as this is the fourth queen song i've heard in an ad in the last couple of years.
even in italy they use Queen songs in advertisement.But in general they use the original versions. Now they are using CLTCL for some morning biscuits ;)
but some months ago there was somebody to love for othe morning breakfasts (the spot began with "each morning i get up and die a little...."
some time ago "let me live" for other food,
but also innuendo (the "you can be anything..." part) for ballantine drink, the we are the champions (not original version) for T-shirt from "champions" and many manyother advertisements
Anything too stupid to be said... is sung.
Last night I was watching "Store studio"(large studio) at NRK1.
In the beginning of the show they talked about this version of WWRY and showed something from an interview with Brian and Roger.
Brian started to talk about the song and Roger seems fine, but after just a few seconds he takes both his hands over his face and almost seems to be crying!

And back in studio they say "Now they have the song is finaly dead, and Queen did it themself" "Freddie must be saying #1¤#!?"#"!£!$!!"

Maybe it is time to move on and do some new stuff or at least stop re-recoring old songs every month
It bloddy sucks i saw it on channel four and i got so angry-they didn't show brian or roger and britney still sucks whether she's singing queen or not-my god am i angry!!!!!!!!!
touch my tears with your lips touch my world with your fingertips.

Can you link or transcribe to these interviews? Cos i've been curious as to their thoughts on Queen. Thanks
