Does anyone happen to know which song contains the lowest recorded note of Freddie's? The lowest i can think of is in "My Melancholy Blues" at the "all time low" part, but does he ever go any lower?
Which reminds me of another question. Who sings the bass "gotta bring back leroy brown" at about 30 seconds into BBTLB?

I would say at the part in "Love of My Life" where he sasys because "back bring it back don't take it away from me <i>because< /i>"
Is it just me?

the BBTLB is Freddie, but they slowed down the tape to make it sound like it was that low
Actually that "slow-down" myth is just a myth, imo.
Lowest notes from Freddie are normally low Fs: 'Bo Rhap' (lowest voice in "FOR me"), 'Somebody To Love' ("anybody find me" before the long title-phrase near the coda) and 'All Dead' ("and GONE"). The three of them in harmony vocals of course.

Its hardly a 'myth' they slowed down the tape.. Common practice in the stuidio in the 60's and 70's, and its 'all over early Queen albums The only other song i can think of off the top o my head would be the intro to 'lap of the gods'.
crazy little thing is pretty low, don't you think

Thats definatly not a myth, you can hear it very well. Try speeding it up a bit, you can hear Freddie's normal timbre and it's much more natural.
But it's still rediculously low, even without the varispeed

Niek, do you happen to have it speeded-up? Can you upload it please?
this is tough...i read somewhere that it actually was from I'm Going Slightly Mad, during the chorus. He hits a really low note at the first "I'm going slightly mad".
Oh, and the low part in Bring Back That Leroy Brown...that was John, in a rare moment of singing. Don't laugh, though; that's his actual singing voice.

It's obviously IGSM.
Seriously, even I can sing along to that one.

I think Slightly Mad is one of the lowest lead vocal lines indeed.
And Sebastian, I don't have it saved, but i can speed it up and upload it when I have time

I thought his lowest note was when he croaked?

It's slowed down 3 semitones (Same as the vocals Leaving Home Ain't Easy and In the Lap of the Gods).
Of course because of the slowing down and speeding up it loses a bit of quality but who cares :P

Cheers Niek. So he's actually singing a low Eb, right?
