Demo for Life Is Real (Song For Lennon) recorded during the Hot Space sessions.
Lyrics:
Roger: One, two, three, four
Guilt stains on my pillow
Blood on my terraces
Torsos in my closet
Shadows from my past
Life is real
Life is real
Life is real, so real
Sleeping is my leisure
Waking up in a minefield
Dream is just a pleasure dome
Love is a roulette wheel
Life is real
Life is real
Life is real, so real
Success is my breathing space
I brought it on myself
I will price it
I will cash it
I can take it or leave it
Loneliness is my hiding place
Breastfeeding myself
What more can I say
I have swallowed the bitter pill
I can taste it, I can taste it
Life is real
Life is real
Life is real
Music will be my mistress
Loving like a whore
Lennon is a genius
Living in every pore
Life is real
Life is real
Life is real, so real
Life is cruel
Life is a bitch
Life is real - so real
Life is real
Life is real, yeah
Life is real

@webusk dont forget harrison maybe u could name him Harrison Lennon Mercury
-
we don't need these kind of demos on the bonus disc of the remastered issues. no!* we crave Live at Wembley '86 performances* and Milton Keynes performances* :D we want them. so we can compare their sound difference (in any) with the ALREADY RELEASED FULL CONCERTS :@
I guess B+R will never know what we want. Never.
* Please note the sarcasm used.

Life is cruel, Life is a bitch, Life is real so real

Not my favorite on Hot Space, but a cool one anyway.

I agree. I also love 'Spread Your Wings' with a passion.
-
It is intresting that you feel this way,because Freddie always considered his music stronger than his lyrics:)

I regard this as the best song written by any artist about The Late Great John Lennon. Equalled only by All Those Years Ago by George Harrison. This song should be played heaps over the radio over the next few days as we remember the tragic event of 27 years ago on December 8 at 10.45pm.
