2006 USA Tour Setlist - A Survey

I'd like to see

Innuendo
Now I'm Here
Keep Yourself Alive
Stone Cold Crazy

and as part of Brian's solo Bijou

we need keep yourslef alive! aisde form that, i'd like ogre battle, sleeping on the sidewalk tentement funster and now i'm here

Thanks a lot for your votes -- very much appreciated.

I have now collected the answers of 79 people, and I think we need at least 100 to have a chance to be taken seriously.

so far, we have:

Headlong (24 votes)
Now I'm Here (21)
It's Late (20)
Shooting Star (20)
Now I'm Here (18)

followed by (in this order): Innuendo, Somebody To Love, Tenement Funster, Breakthru, Sleeping On The Sidewalk , Spread Your Wings and Sail Away Sweet Sister


nothing is established for sure at this point, so if you haven't votes yet, here's your chance to influence the list that will be presented to Brian as the fans' 'top 5 request'... or something like that.

sorry - there was obviously a mistake in the previous message.

the temporary top 5 is:

Headlong (24 votes)
Now I'm Here (21)
It's Late (20)
Shooting Star (20)
Keep Yourself Alive (18)

Okay, here goes my realistic dream set at this moment:

Beautiful Day mix(as before)
Eminem thing
Dear Friends(Paul)
Now I'm Here
Tie Your Mother Down
I Want To Break Free
Dragon Attack
Can't Get Enough Of Your Love
Crazy Little Thing Called Love
Say It's Not True
Someday One Day
Love Of My Life
Shooting Star
It's Late
Let There Be Drums
Rock It
Brighton Rock/Chinese Water Torture(Brian's solo)
These Are The Days Of Our Lives
Heaven For Everyone
White Man
The Prophet Song
Feel Like Making Love
Liar
All Right Now
Keep Yourself Alive
Rock 'n Roll Fantasy
I Want It All
Bohemian Rhapsody
----------------
Bad Company
We Will Rock You
Another One Bites The Dust
In The Lap Of The Gods Revisited
We Are The Champions
God Save The Queen


Bottom Line: With all the 'what should they play?' polls out there... Why the hell aren't people pushing The Prophet Song like hell??? A) It's a freaking live classic. B) Paul would do very interesting things with it(obviously) C) It's a Brian song, so it should not carry any of that, 'Shouldn't be done without Freddie.' attitude out there.

I just hope that whatever they do, that it's in the spirit of experimenting with the set, playing
with the catalogue. I hope they have a creative attitude towards the PR songs as well, I just don't know his stuff, besides mostly their hits.

If the band sticks closely to the Euro set list, I'll be pissed. IMHO almost half of those songs didn't work, particularly the more pop-oriented stuff and the solos. The trick is to find songs that suit Paul's voice.

Add:
Spread Your Wings
It's Late
Dragon Attack
Satisfaction Guaranteed
Now I'm Here

Drop:
I Want To Break Free
I'm In Love With My Car
A Kind Of Magic
Radio Ga Ga
God Save The Queen (Come up with an original idea to close the show!)

I am sure that Break Free and A Kind of Magic will not be in there as they did not play them in NJ or LA. I'm In Love With My Car is one of the highlights of the show. Why would they not close the show with God Save the Queen?? They have done that since 1975, you think they are gonna change now?

I would LIKE to see them drop "God Save The Queen" and Brian's solo (isn't "Last Horizon" enough of a solo) precisely because they have been doing them for so long. It's never too late to innovate.

Heck, I still think it's a cop out to leave the stage during "Bohemian Rhapsody," but I know they are not going to change their ways on that one either.

AmeriQueen: if you had to stick with only 5 additions to the setlist, what would they be? ;)

I think they should play an acoustic version of no one but you. Other songs they should add are healong, it's late, long away (all the song) & princes of the universe or who wants to live forever.

early stuff?? we have heard early stuff from early tours, but we haven't got the miracle, innuendo and made in heaven tours so i'd like to hear 89-95 stuff!! oooh i'd love to hear
the miracle
scandal
breakthru
was it all worth it
headlong
i'm going slightly mad
innundo(c'mon best song from queen)
the hitman
let me leave
mother love (biran singing)
heaven for everyon,
too much love will kill you
a winters tale
ok any of those songs would be very great! :)

Drop most of the Roger songs? I don't think so... In love with my car sounds awesome, Gaga is always good fun. If any tampering whould be done with Roger's songs, they could replace Say it's not true with Tenement Funster....

I'd rather see less Brian songs.

Agree though that I Want to break free doesnt work.

Break Free works but not in USA. In Europe remember what a moment when it was sing partly by the crowd. And Paul gives to it a bluesy style related with the lyrics...

Sail Away Sweet Sister
Dragon Attack
Silver Blue & Gold
The Prophet's Song
White Man
