Queen's don't try so hard, it still touches me

I was listening to Innuendo lately, one of my favourite albums by Queen.... In track 5, Don't try so hard, Freddies voice is SOOOOO GREAT!!! After 13 years it still touches me!

Realised that Freddie died 13 years ago... man, time flies.....

Such a pitty the man died.... I miss his voice.....

I agree whole heartedly. His voice was awesome and he's very missed. I have most of their albums and am sick there aren't anymore to come.

Yes Queen and Freddie were the best ....' The show Must go ON' is incredible ... vocally especially considering Freddie was only a year away from death when he sang it ..

Did anyone ever see Queen in concert? I wish I had. Although for some reason I didn't become a big fan until shortly before Freddie's death. Have you ever checked out the Queenonline site?

I wish I had too.... Last time they were in Holland was 1986. I was 13 then.. At the release of Miracle I always shouted I GOT TO SEE THEM LIVE!!! But at that time, Freddie announced he would never tour again... So I never had a chance unfortunately..... Have to do it with dvd's which are amazing.....

Hears about the 2 duets Freddie worked with Michael jackson around 1984?


1) "State of shock"- this got released on the jacksons "Victory album (1984) but instead had the teirribally flat Mick jagger instead! Original has freddie singing with Mike

2) "Victory"- this track i really wanna hear! Title of jacksons album but no track called "Victory" appeared on it! Chances r Mj scrapped this as well as "State of shock" after michael fell out with freddie when he caught him in a bathroom snorting coke! The title sounds very interesting though.....

Sorry, that's a total myth - they only ever recorded 2 songs 2gether: 'State of Shock' and 'There Must be More To Life Than This'.

I have this versions of Freddie with Michael (both).. State of shock with Freddie is MUCH better indeed, and there must be more to life than this is nice by MJ but Freddie's version is the best!!!
