The first ever performance of this great Queen ballad. Freddie absolutely nails the song, especially the a cappella intro.

  • I was there live 1984 when this happened. I am not so sure I was not standing next to the guy who was taping the bootleg of the concert.

  • Really? You're lucky, as it was one of Freddie's last brilliant performances.

  • Yes it was from Queen "The Works" Tour first one of the tour.  But of course you would know that. DUH LOL

  • Of course. He actually sang it well the first few times, up until about September, where his voice started suffering.

  • @jaydunn79 i totally agree.

  • охрененно good !!!

    

  • "How it hurts - deep inside... When your love has cut you down to size."

    Those lyrics hurt the most because it's so true. You feel crushed.

  • The intro is sung very well! Good, Freddie!

  • Ah its awsome!

    I think there can be no doubt this is the best version of the song, also this was before Roger used electronic drums, the one and only concert before he switched to those not quite so good drums!

  • I'd love to hear the band-recorded version of this

  • Have yet to hear Freddie sing a poor version of this song. First live version or not, it's still a brilliant version

  • Its not pitched up to my knowledge, well the other versions out there sound similar. There is a 'better' version out there in terms of quality anyway.

    Still he does nail this song, as he does with quite a few songs from this concert. One of the best from this tour.

  • this is the first show of the works tour............Freddie's voice is in excelent shape....for this reason he sings so well the part of the falseto

  • The video is very high pitched.
