Did you tell Brian when you met him? Or were you just too busy perving at someone who could be your grandpa, little 15 year old Queen-maniac. But well, talk to your parents, they might have heard of a band called The Rolling Stones. Ask them about a certain song called "You can't always get what you want". [/QUOTE]

Haha....So not amusing.

Brian would probably give me a simple answer like "We are still thinking about it" "Maybe, you never know" Shit like that, why don't you go and ask him? Ha...funny.

The reason I ask for b-sides is because not many people can find them and all this crap about re-releasing Freddie's songs or Queen's even is a waste of money. Take "Stone Cold Classics" What a load of shit. I have all of those songs, why buy that album anyway? We want something NEW. When I say WE I know alot of people who agree with me on this one.

I think that this will be a great idea! Queen need the public's attention over the next five years for TONS of new releases. "The Great Pretender" and "The Freddie Mercury Album" can still exist as they serve as compilations with hits and remixes of hits whereas "Singer of Songs, Lover Of Life: The Best Of Freddie Mercury" can serve as the "definitive single disc best of" with the original versions of these tracks at this time. I think this is going to work VERY well as from the track listing it will be FOURTEEN "best of's" plus FIVE tracks that have NEVER been on a single disc release before. That is REALLY cool folks! I can't wait! ROOCK AND ROOOOLLLL!!!! I just hope that this gets released and promoted here in the U.S. of A.!!! Wow! We have this PLUS the Queen box set "The Full Works" comming out this year! I REALLY hope that that gets released in the U.S. of A. too even though a few years ago Hollywood Records said that they would not release the Queen box sets but perhaps three c.d. sets of them. That would SUCK hardcore for sure. "The Full Works" is going to need a ton of promotion as well!!! Especially in the U.S.!!!!

The Freddie Mercury Album/GH3 version... they can't learn from their mistakes can they:(

And what about the new remixes they've done? I wasn't expecting much so I can't be bothered really.

RELASE B-SIDES, YOU MONKEYS!!! xD[/QUOTE]

Umm...and exactly what about B-sides would make this a Very Best of *Freddie Mercury* compilation?[/QUOTE]

Freddie Mercury's birthday or not I want B-Sides. Period.[/QUOTE]

Then maybe we should wait (and wait and wait and wait, and continue to wait, LOL) for Queen boxsets. Heck, I want B-sides, too. But they have nothing to do with a Freddie Mercury birthday release, IMO.

Hmm...besides B-sides(:D), I'd like to have some numbers that were sometimes played in the concerts but not surfaced on any albums including Hangman and encore numbers...I think they are brilliant.

There's nothing new about those b-sides. They're widely circulated, widely available, and have been released for years and years and years. THey may be new to you but they're far from new. I'd dare say most fans have made their own b-sides compilation ages ago.

Okay, I know that...but those who rarely/never know those ones would discover another side of Freddie's singing...

oops sorry!

What!! No Your Kind Of Lover or Man Made Paradise! Well...well, thats just wrong man.

Anyhoo, you cant blame fans for being bummed at another compilation, and I would love some archive stuff. But...oh well. Im not going to complain, because we all have the official releases which are fantastic.

First, if you think any Freddie solo release is going to get any kind of promotion in America, you're crazy.

Second, "The Full Works"? What in the blazes are you talking about?

The so called singles box set[/QUOTE]

Well then, who gave it such a stupid title?

Remember folks, the only way to get those songs now is on bootleg or the box set. Not good for a fan of just beginning.[/QUOTE]

That's simply NOT true there is the MR. Bad guy cd/lp/mc it is still easy to get on the internet. And the best of Freddie Mercury (3cd version) is also available everywhere, containing the Mr Bad guy album, the barcelona album.

The 'new' compilation cd is just a stupid and boring re-re-re-release...I am not buying it for sure

Wow, the VERY BEST of FM, that's the same as SUPER LIVE in Japan.

Queen Productions I suppose[/QUOTE]

I'm doubting that since I have yet to see any kind of official announcement. So far it looks like something a fan designated it as.
