Does anyone know why Freddie sang songs live that he didn't sing in the studio? Sheer Heart Attack and '39 are two that come to mind.

Well, Lester, here's what is said at Queen.musichall.cz about SHA:
Vocals:
Most of it is done by Roger again. The first verse is sung by Freddie.The hey, hey, hey, hey-parts etc... have got a harmony voice by Roger. In the chorus, Roger multi-tracked his voice (about 4 tracks) and used heavy flanging. The "I feel so" - is done by Freddie again, followed by some harmonies (1 Freddie,2 Rogers), and the "ticulate" is Roger's lead voice. Roger sings the whole second verse (+harmonies). Listen to his great "how I feel" - articulation at 1:43. Till the instrumental break we only hear Roger's voice. After the break there's nothing new. The vocal parts are a stunning demostration of Freddie's and (especially) Roger's great articulation

So I guess we're both right, although it says mostly Roger sang it.

Just imagine:

You have both Freddie & Brian (or Roger), then think about this - Who sings better?

In my poor opinion I wouldn´t have prefered Brian instead of Freddie singing 39´ in a concert.
The Bigger & the Better...in everything.

Ouch. Harsh. He can sing ... just has a different singing quality.

I remember hearing something where Brian said they discussed the fact that it should be Freddie that would handle 99% of the live vocals. Unfortunately I cant remember where I heard it from....

Freddie did "Rock It" during "The Game" tour...

"I do believe it's Roger singing Sheer Heart Attack in the studio."

Actually, while it is both. It's Freddie on the lead. They both sang and recorded takes for the lead in the song. But in the end they compromised (if it can be called that!) and left Freddie's lead track in. Though, they also edited Roger's around Freddie's track. So, it's not quite near 50-50. Ultimately, it's Freddie.

Peace,
Adam.

Brian hasn't a rocking voice, but I must say that his version of Too Much Love Will Kill You during the Tribute concert made me shiver. He can handle such songs very well.
I got to try al little more, because I'm an asshole but I'm learning. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NfTLkUcQ7QY

RE: Sheer Heart Attack.

I don't believe it is Roger in the second verse. It is still Freddie. Dunno, where the guy from Switzerland hears Roger there. Well, he is there, but the lead vocal is still Fred.

Anyway...
Keep 'em mowing blades sharp!
