Queen releases a 34-year-old song with Freddie Mercury's vocals: 'We’d kind of forgotten'

[lightbright]

Queen is putting Freddie Mercury's vocals into 2022 by releasing a never before heard song "Face it alone", originally recorded in the 80's.

​

Queen is bringing the '80s into 2022.

The band unveiled the never-before-heard track "Face It Alone" Thursday, which features vocals of late frontman Freddie Mercury. The more than four-minute long song is led by melancholy string plucks and slow drum hits with a sobering self-encouraging message: "Your life is your own / You're in charge of yourself / Master of your home/ In the end, in the end / You have to face it all alone."

The song was originally recorded in 1988 while the four-person group was working on their 1989 "The Miracle" album, according to a press release. While working on "Miracle" the band produced 30 tracks but only released 14 on the project that included the hit single "I Want It All."

Though "Face It Alone" has been in the archives for more than 30 years, it is the first time the band has released new music in eight years and features all four of the band's original members: Mercury, Brian May, John Deacon and Roger Taylor.

i always find it interesting that artists produce so much content that we will never hear. I’d love to hear un released tracks from 2pac, Michael Jackson, and prince.

A lot of the bigger musicians must have loads of shit that they write yet never get to release do to other songs that they make.

A lot of it is unreleased for a reason.

Usually the artist didn't think it was quite good enough to put out.

Man, Pac dropped 5 unreleased albums after he died.
Then there were the 20 DJ album mixes after that.

I feel what you saying but I’ll always will remember this.. this popular justin Timberlake track was supposed to be for Michael but he declined it for whatever reason. now when you think how big of a hit it became and thinking if you take Justin off of it and put Michael on it and how he would’ve killed it.. it makes you think that sometimes these dudes is ultimate perfectionist and that sometimes what they don’t like might actually sound incredible to the audience

when you listen to it ,this has Michael written all over it
