New Queen album features unreleased Freddie Mercury songs
Three previously unreleased Queen tracks featuring late singer Freddie Mercury are featured on the new compilation, “Queen Forever”, due November 10 (Nov. 11 in North America).
The package include a long anticipated track from Queen and Michael Jackson, “There Must Be More To Life Than This”, a previously unfinished Mercury-Queen track “Let Me In Your Heart Again” originating from the band’s “The Works” album recording sessions, and a new stripped-down ballad version of Mercury’s first solo hit, his Giorgio Moroder collaboration, “Love Kills.”
The rest of the package brings together Queen hits, classic tracks, and new takes on well-known songs, matched with band recordings Brian May describes as “things that we have collected together that are representative of our growth rather than the big hits” in a collection immaculately assembled by May and Roger Taylor themselves. The tracks are all linked to represent a definitive collection of Queen’s timeless love songs.
"Queen Forever" will be available as a 20-track single CD and as an extended 36-track, two-CD set.
Queen recently wrapped up a series of shows in Australia and New Zealand with vocalist Adam Lambert.
