Dead On Time

...and why they didn't play it live.
It's a great song, it could ROCK live.
Anyone got an answer?

There are so many they never played live, like Princes of the Universe (God knows WHY!!). Dead On Time is a very difficult song to sing -- Freddie's voice would have been in shreds in a concert after that one!
(I love the thunder at the end -- Brian risked his life taping a thunderstorm for posterity!)

Quite hard song to sing live and to play with only one guitar.

Maybe because they thought it wouldn't work on stage

I think if they played "Princes..." in every Magic Tour concert, Freddie's voice would have been shot, you know? :-( Shame, as it is a fabulous song!

POTU is such a powerful song it deserved at least one performance live and sadly never got one. Can you imagine the light show that would have gone with it -- OOH!!!

I'd've expected Christopher Lambert at every playing then. EVERY!
