I reckon it is Freddie that says the "It's not that I'm bright, just happy go lucky" part. Doesn't sound like Roger.
nope

Yup, I'll take that back then as I just looked at the booklet. Always thought it sounded lIke Freddie doing a silly voice but I stand corrected.

To be honest, I haven't listened back or checked the notes - I just remember an article in an old Record Collector about the sessions. A great piece if you can find it, and this was before they were commonly heard so very exciting.
I remember reading it thinking how unlikely the descriptions sounded :D

Yeah for all the years I've heard that track on the 'At The Beeb; CD I always figured it was Freddie that said it because I thought it sounded more like him than Roger, but you were right and I saw it in the liner notes.

The Happy Go Lucky line, if it's anyone from Queen it's Freddie - although I can't for the life of me picture him doing a northern accent. Hilarious if it IS him. But might they not have had the engineer do it as a gag? Or, deep breath - John Deacon? Sure, he doesn't sing but he CAN speak and he's from much further up north than the others so could he have been having a bit of fun in the studio? I'm just not that confident that it's Freddie.
