    Brian originally wrote this song for his solo album so it's nice to hear him sing it.

    I wonder why they haven't performed a lot of the songs from The Miracle and Innuendo? It would be nice to see songs like Headlong and Breakthru get performed, considering they're pretty popular with Queen fans at least. Scandal, I'm Going Slightly Mad, and The Invisible Man would be cool too.

      @Daniela_Germany 3 роки тому +5

      At that time, Brian wanted to leave Queen behind and find himself as a solo artist. Also, the tour served to promote his album "Back to the Light", so there was a highlight on that. Apart from that, as far as I noticed, when performing solo or with Kerry Ellis, he almost exclusively does Queen songs that he wrote himself. (While Scandal in particular he doesn't like much.)
      That being said, I too would very much have loved to hear his live versions of those songs, I'm sure they would have been just as awesome as this!

      Why do millennials think that "nobody" knows about anything that THEY have just discovered? Or are you the stupider form of millennial - gen z?

    Man at the time this one was new, imagine if Queen could tour and play it in the 90s it was mostly solo tours for May, they took Freddie’s passing hard for final decision to resume tourin again in 2005

    I love Brian. I love Queen. I love Headlong.
    I hate hearing this song without Freddie.

    My beloved and admired amazing Brian May, is wonderful, no one like him, or Roger, can sing after Freddie Mercury's songs .. who the hell out of this puppet, carrying with them now, disgusting ...

    Il mio amato e ammirato sorprendente Brian May, è meraviglioso, nessuno come lui, o Roger, può cantare dopo le canzoni di Freddie Mercury .. chi l'inferno fuori di questo fantoccio, portando con loro ora, disgustoso ...
