Queen | Somebody To Love | Arquest 1995 Live Remix

Taken from the album 'Queen | Live From Heaven 1995 | Arquest Live Remix’.

After touring in 1992 in support of the ‘Innuendo’ album, Queen decided to take a much longer break from work. Each of the band members pursued their solo projects, resulting in the releases of Brian’s ‘Back To The Light’ and Roger’s ‘Happiness’. Freddie was working on a follow up to the ‘Mr. Bad Guy’, having considered the ‘Barcelona’ album with Montserrat Caballé a one-off that he would never be able to repeat. And while the album was not finished, it ultimately gave him the idea of trying out his older solo songs with the whole band - and that’s how Queen versions of ‘Made In Heaven’ and ‘I Was Born To Love You’ came to life. The former even gave its title the the new Queen album, released at the end of 1995.
It contained a few tracks which started their life already during the ‘Innuendo’ album sessions (‘A Winter’s Tale’, ‘You Don’t Fool Me’ and ‘Mother Love’) as well as some reworked older material. The general theme of the album seemed to touch the subject of life and death, love and heaven which greatly influenced the sound - it was cleaner, more peaceful and calmer compared to the band’s previous output.
Queen decided to promote the album by performing a selection of shows around Europe in late 1995, starting a few weeks before the album was released on November 6th. The setlist was a mixture between old and new material - at this point the band felt they needed to play the big hits to satisfy their audience but also managed to squeeze a couple of unexpected tracks, most notably ‘Fat Bottomed Girls’ and ‘Don’t Stop Me Now’ from 1978’s ‘Jazz’ album.
The band chose to play no less than 6 new songs off of ‘Made In Heaven’ and, encouraged by the global success of the MTV Unplugged format, even arranged a semi-acoustic segment in the show which included ‘Mother Love’ and ‘I Was Born To Love You’. The previous two albums were also represented with 3 tracks off of ‘Innuendo’ being played (all in different arrangements compared to the previous tour) and ‘I Want It All’ returning to the set once again.
The ‘Live From Heaven’ outing as it was called had the band sounding fresh and eager to play in front of a live audience again. Both new and reworked songs from the new album turned out to be highlights of the concerts and confirmed that Queen was definitely not going to be overthrown.

I like how you mixed 70s and 80s Freddie's vocals with the lower tone to kinda give a sense of what 90s freddie would sound like if he either never had aids and quit smoking or survived aids

[@vap3669]

do you just use melodyne on freddies vocals and use the formant tool?

[@ArquestRemixes]

In this case it's just a standard pitch shifter plugin, not melodyne, with a slight formant shift as well.

[@feduwtc]

something i was wondering, did you use Montreal vocals or the Works tour ones?

[@ArquestRemixes]

Well, none of the above, vocals are from Milton Keynes '82.
