I have wondered this thing a lot of times. How could´ve Queen sounded doing an unplugged.
Was it possible? For example: Brian without his Red Specia; Fred without enough space on stage; etc...
But I also think that Freddie´s voice would´ve sounded awsome (maybe better than usual).
They used to say that their shows used to be better with a big crowd.
I don´t know. What do u thing?

so long as it wasn't the usual "live unpluggeds"
ie - 39, loml etc
i've listed a short set that i think would sound great accoustically - having listened to nirvana/kiss and oasis unplugged on mtv i think you'll find it's surprising how some heavier songs come across very well accoustically
wwry/champions
innuendo
somebody to love (acapella)
you're my best friend

I think both WWRY/WATC and CLTCL would've sounded awful unplugged. The first one is not really a song with the warmth that is needed for unplugged concerts.
The only thing about the last one, the similarity to an old r&r-song, that I like about this song is based on the use of electric guitars.

as i said in my post - if you listen to some of the songs "carried off well" by oasis, nirvana etc there is no reason why rockier numbers don't work
and as for CLTCL - freddie wrote it in the bath - now don't misunderstand my tone here - but he didn't write it electrically - otherwise he'd have been dead about 1979
so i think with that in mind, the song would probably work accoustically

Could have been great. I wish they had played around with their songs more. Imagine John playing his double bass on AOBTD... lol, okay, just a thought.
