People still think I'm mad for saying Freddie's version.
...this kettle is boiling over... ...one dump...one turd...two tits...John Deacon... ...one prawn...one shrimp...one clam...one chicken!
I think you're mad anyway.

Just slightly, though. Hence your name.
FREDDIES VERSION IS WAY BETTER

it was always intended by Freddie as a POP song and not a ROCK song ... and I think people should respect this

and I think Queen had not the right to rework it,
this is one of the reasons why Made In Heaven ist the poorest of all of Queen`s albums.
The Queen version(s).

My madness was caused by a silver hammer in possession of Maxwell.

I still maintain that there's a "Queen" (yes "'s not ''s) version of Mr Bad Guy too. Not that it was on MiH but I'm damned sure there's a "Queen" version.

Queen version. The MIH version sounds like it could have been a Queen original. Brian's guitar is majestic. Got to give credit to Freddie for the great foundation of the song.

This coming from the fellow who sang 'Does Anyone Really Know What Time It Is?'.
I listened to them both again last night. MIH on the solo album brings me to tears every time. I can only repeat it a few times or I turn into a sobbing mess. Same with Love Me Like There's No Tomorrow. I didn't like the solo album at first because it wasn't that familiar hard-driving Queen sound, but it has become my favorite.
Yes, it was a worthwhile experience.
Both versions are good, but the stripped-down solo version is the first version I heard, so I favour that.
I like both myself but give the edge on both counts to Queen. Roger's drums come in like cannons before the solo on MIH is like yelling FIRE! IWBTLY was turned from a dance hit into a full out rocker and the DW drums sound much better than drum machines and Brian's guitars made it rock.
