Queen - Don't Stop Me Now (Unused Vocal Takes)

Описание: This version of Don't Stop Me Now comes from very small excerpts that were leaked onto the Don't Stop Me Now Bass and Drum's Overhead mic stems from the 'Rock Tour' mobile game.

The first snippet is very brief as the vocals become intelligible when the drums kick in, so just the beginning and end are included. The second track comes from the bass track. This early lead vocal take is leaked onto John's ambient mic recording and thanks to Dry Paint Dealer Undr for further isolating the vocals from the bass track. Some parts are still barely audible, but much better than the original.

Since this edit comes directly from a mixdown of the multitrack, the speed is slower than on the album. As some songs were sped up for the vinyl, I have fixed the speed to match what we all know.

Written by: Freddie Mercury
Produced by: Queen and Roy Thomas Baker
Musicians:
Freddie Mercury - lead and backing vocals, piano
Brian May - guitars, backing vocals
John Deacon - bass guitar
Roger Taylor - drums, tambourine, triangle, backing vocals

First Take:

...stop me cause I'm,
Having a good time, having a good time...

Daaa da daa, aah aah aaah.


Second Take:


...alive

And the world, I'll turn it inside out, yeah
Oooooooh
So

Don't stop me now
Don't stop me
'Cos I'm having a good time
I'm Having a good time

I'm a shooting star leaping through the sky
Like a tiger defying the laws of gravity
I'm a racing car passing by like Lady Godiva
I'm gonna go, go, go there's no stopping me
I'm burning through the sky yeah
200 degrees that's why they call me Mr. Fahrenheit
I'm travelling at the speed of light
I wanna make a supersonic man out of you, come on!

Don't stop me now
I'm having such a good time
I'm having a ball
Don't stop me now
If you wanna have a good time
Just give me a call
Don't stop me now
'Cos I'm having a good time
Don't stop me now
Yes, I'm having a good time
I don't wanna stop at all, yeah

I'm a rocket ship on my way to Mars
On a collision course
I am a satellite
I'm out of control
I'm a sex machine ready to reload
Like an atom bomb about to oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, explode
I'm burning through the sky, yeah
Just moving along, that's why they call me Mr. Fahrenheit
I'm travelling at the speed of light
I wanna make a supersonic woman of you

Oooh yea! (Yeah!)
Oooooh, let loose honey
Alright!

Ooh, burning through the sky, yeah
Just moving along, that's why they call me Mr. Fahrenheit
Hey, travelling at the speed of light
I wanna make a supersonic man out of you

Don't stop me now
I'm having such a good time
I'm having a ball
Don't stop me now
If you wanna have a good time, alright
Just give me a call
Don't stop me now
'Cos I'm having a good time
Don't stop me now
Yes, I'm having a good time
I don't wanna stop at all, all!
