QUEEN launch unheard song featuring FREDDIE MERCURY, Face It Alone
14 October 2022QUEEN have released a lyric video for Face It Alone, a track recorded during sessions for the band's 1989 album The Miracle. It's the first previously unheard song featuring Freddie Mercury's voice to emerge since the release of the Queen Forever compilation album in 2014.
Face It Alone comes from the upcoming eight-disc box set edition of The Miracle, which is scheduled to arrive on November 18, a date that will also see the release of a 7" single of Face It Alone.
The existence of Face It Alone was originally revealed by Taylor and Brian May during an interview with The BBC earlier this year.
"We’d kind of forgotten about this track,” said Roger Taylor. “But there it was, this little gem. It’s wonderful, a real discovery. It’s a very passionate piece."
Sessions for The Miracle resulted in more than 30 songs, 10 of which made the final cut. Others later appeared as b-sides or as solo tracks, while some finally saw the light of day on the Innuendo and Made in Heaven albums.
“We had all these bits and pieces of tracks, and some of them were half-finished, some of them were just an idea, and some of them were nearly finished, and it sort of happened on its own really," says May. "There are some tracks which you always want to get out and work on, and so they get finished, and there are some tracks which you think, ‘Oh that’s great, but I don’t really know what to do with it at this moment’, so they naturally get left by the wayside."
Those tracks will make their public debut on the box set, with When Love Breaks Up, You Know You Belong To Me, I Guess We’re Falling Out, Dog With a Bone and Water joining Face It Alone on the collection's Miracle Sessions disc. Full details below.
