The final version was recorded in an abandoned church because of the acoustics

[edward6000]

Im gonna add the drum 'fortisimo' as a ringtone :) :)

[k12robert]

A thousand thanks for posting this. I had this on cassete from the rock show recorded in the mid 80's,of course now long gone. I have never heard this version anywhere else, is it on disc anywhere?

[edwardfan1231]

[bluebacchus]

WE WILL ROCK YOU!!!

[TheQerzi]

Um es auf Neudeutsch zu sagen

OBERGEILER HAMMER SONG

[1980Triumph]

this song is like a bulldozer running over you at 300 mph, its tough and it soars

[VHSpal]

I live in Maida Vale, and walk past the studios every day, on the way to work.

It's amazing to think about who's been in there, stepped on the same paving stones. Queen, Led Zep, Nirvana..

[GaGaforQueen]

@VHSpal *LUCKY YOU!* (more than a bit jealous!) You have quite of bit of history you get to walk by everyday!

[astonrd]

Please take this as positive.

I'm a bit of a homophobe. Bit racist I've been told by TV shows. Freddy was god.

God is gay. God is a bit asian. Bless god.

Greatest singer ever to breathe gods air!!

[ferqueen]

the best queen at all

[joepye]

what is the spoken bit just before the fast version kicks in all about ? not to fussed if know one actually knows as it's a great kick ass track any way .

[smrfox99]

Deacon is the man!

[alkzazar]

godfather for many bassist... like me

[rula42]

@smrfox99 yeah...i love his part in that song, too!...lol

Cristopherqueen: "1:27 to 1:43 its roger?"

No, it is actually a radio 4 reading of Herman Hesse's Siddartha that they found on the tape they were given to record the track. They kept the reading and mixed that part it in between the two versions. Creative genius, really.

[DanQueen2008]

No. It's A Stroy Telling Thing That The Beeb Did

[sworedlord]

Yes, it's from Siddhartha, and YES, it's genius.

[Xstractor]

@XitStrategy Its weird the text actually doesnt exist in the book.

[paulosham2]

@Xstractor You're right, it's one of those misconceptions that people have taken as fact for a long time but it's wrong. I don't know where it comes from but I do know it's not Herman Hesse.

[aeelaj]

how this become a football song?

[paulosham2]

@aeelaj stomp stomp clap

[SaroOOona122]

we will rock you !!

[Zhikaaku]

I love this version!! I think it's better then the studio version.

[paulosham2]

@Zhikaaku this is a studio version, just different

[songqueen1993]

very good your video!

[vixenmusique]

I love John at 2:47 - 2:56. He's thinking: "how did I end up in these Aviator sunglasses?"

[Cristopherqueen]

1:27 to 1:43 its roger?

[brarlappin]

I've heard about this studio version of the fast we will rock you but I've never heard it until now. Thanks for posting this! I sure hope they get their asses in gear and release a queen anthology. Where can i get these tracks?

[vicmbjwe]

watch?v=HrAq4iRBcGA&fmt=6

I hope you like it. Is a mix that i made of the "We Will Rock You" Slow & Fast version :)

[iemeguitarist]

thanks for sharing... love to hear it!

[flippyflyer]

Wow, im breathless....Why dont they release these later BBC versions????

[romavictora]

WOW !! How could it get better??!! Damn I'm Amazed...Where in the hell do these tracks come from?

[CurlyMoeLarryShemp]

Greater than any song

[NickJonasFansite101]

Whats uo with 1:20-1:42???

[HOUNDADOO]

I remember hearing this on radio1 introduced by Alan (fluff) Freeman sometime in 78. This was the first time the fast version had been heard by joe public and blew me away. Melancholy Blues, It's Late and Who Needs You were on the same session. Some of Queens best stuff I think.

[saiyaman001]

People I admire, in order:

1. Freddie Mercury

2. Brian May

3. Roger Taylor

4. John Deacon

5. John Lennon

6. Kurt Cobain

7. DAVE R. FULLER

...Your stuff is PURE GOLD, YOU ROCK!!!! :-D

[saiyaman001]

I love it!!!!!!

[joepye]

Mr DaveRFuller , You are an absolute star, Thankyou so very much for sharing your wonderfull collection with all the world yet again.

[manco82]

I always preferred the original boom-boom-stomp of the album version.

[harrybrandy]

good stuff, but it doesn't beat the fast live version of LIVEkillers.

Very, very nice to hear though

[Sadiet1010]

i love this song

[Imagenetix]

Die Fast-Version ist einfach nur "hot"!
