Three previously unheard Freddie vocals to feature

Queen have announced the release of a new album - featuring three unheard tracks with vocals from late frontman Freddie Mercury. Hear 'There Must Be More To Life Than This' featuring Michael Jackson below.

Queen Forever is set for release on 10 November. Among the tracks is 'There Must Be More To Life Than This' - a collaboration between Queen and Michael Jackson, as well as previously unfinished Mercury-Queen track 'Let Me In Your Heart Again' and a new stripped-down ballad version of Mercury’s first solo hit and Giorgio Moroder collaboration, 'Love Kills'.

The rest of the album consists of Queen hits, classic tracks, and new versions of fan favourites, with guitarist Brian May describing certain recordings as "things that we have collected together that are representative of our growth rather than the big hits."

The Queen and Jacko duet started out in the sessions for Queen's 1981 album, Hot Space, but was never completed. Now, the finished result has been remixed by William Orbit.

"I had known Roger for many years, now he was on the phone asking if I would get involved in this musical adventure," said Orbit in a statement. "When I first played it in my studio I opened a trove of delights provided by the greatest of musicians. Hearing Michael Jackson's vocals was stirring. So vivid, so cool, and poignant, it was like he was in the studio singing live. With Freddie's vocal solo on the mixing desk, my appreciation for his gift was taken to an even higher level.

"The musicianship of all four members of Queen is phenomenal. Roger, an extraordinarily multi talented man I've always admired. John Deacon's original bass part with its lyrical fluidity that made it easy for me to know where to put the odd reinforcement.

He added: "Freddie's original piano carried most of the song's musical DNA. Brian, one take for the solo, a blur of fingers, and the spirits of MJ and FM fully present, in the moment, sending shivers down the spine."

Queen Forever is available as a 20-track single CD and as an extended 36-track, two-CD set. See the full tracklist below.
