In fact there are 3 versions of the TATDOOL,the disney cartoon, the black & white, and one directed by Andy Morahan which shows Queen playing that song but in purple colors and also shows images from concerts and videos of Queen, just like The Show Must Go On video. I've only seen this video broadcasted on MTV.

The one I've seen has Queen through a purple filter, with full color shadings thru the purple filter. The band, is intersperced like I said with the animation, and one lovely part, cuts back & forth to clips of love scenes from black & white live actual films with actors, with the animation as well, and shots of Brian playing an incredibly sublime and elegiac guitar solo.
The version I've seen shows Freddie physically gesturing along with all of the lyrics...including when Freddie sings the very last lyrics of the song:
Quote:
Those were the days of our lives - yeah
The bad things in life were so few
Those days are all gone now but one thing's still true
When I look and I find (Freddie dramatically and emotionally reaches outwards with his arm & hand).
I still love you (Freddie dramatically and even more emotionally looks at the camera).
(Freddie tilts his head up and very softly speaks the last words at the camera.. with a look of bittersweet sadness & happiness in his eyes)...
I still love you
Very little of Queen is edited out from what I've seen, except for the part you all mention where you see Freddie exit and Roger still drumming.
I have NEVER seen those 2 parts, but, you do see the band interacting with one another. I never knew that Brian was Edited...IN...so the Director must have cued John to smile to I guess maybe a blue screen, and for Brian to smile I guess at a blue screen....
cause one of my favorite things in the version I've seen is how John & Brian smile at one another when Freddie is singing the lyrics about how important people & love in your life are...and it adds to the genuineness of that this is not just a video, but the band showing their affection and admiration for one another, just as they and Freddie are paying their farewell to this chapter in the band and to their fans, etc.
The video also begins with Roger playing percussion, congas actually...and cuts back to him alot, especially looking at Freddie....
The video ends, after Freddie speaks "I Still Love You" with the animated lovers walking a path..back..to one another, as you hear Roger playing the congas....very dramatic, effective, moving, stunning...you all get the point...
I know I go off about this song and video...but to me it's Queen's masterpiece, and as a final musical legacy...they really did steal the show...
