What's In? [Deaky-topics in this week]

"Queen" recorded with Robbie Williams

According to OIQFC, "Queen" and Robbie Williams have done a version of We Are The Champions and this song will feature in the forthcoming film called "A Knights Tale", which will also feature Queen's own version of We Will Rock You. Some of you may think "Who does it mean QUEEN?", but this time Jacky told us clearly, "John didn't take part in the recording."

"Break Free", the best friend for housekeepers

Curry's, a British household appliance manufacturer (I don't know much about it...I'm only Japanese, you know) sent out a questionnaire about "Your favorite songs for housekeeping" and as a result, our John's "I Want To Break Free" was selected as No.1. (Congratulations John!) How about you? Sweeping your room as Freddie did on that PV?

Real-Bass? Synth-Bass?

Recently my Japanese BBS have had many topics about bass sounds on Queen Albums. For example, "Is the bass sound of 'Invisible Man' pure bass or synth?", "How about 'Ride The Wild Wind' or 'Radio Ga Ga'?" and so on. According Japanese friends of mine, John seemed to play with both. Some of them said that synth-bass sounds is rather "insensitive" than real sounds. What do you think? Tell your own discovery!
