More than just an extended version of the album track, this track adds
some new lyrics and feels more like a continuation of the song. If you
like the album version, you'll probably dig this.

A tight remix, this adds some echo to the percussion and a few added effects
here and there. The vocals mix parts of both the album and Extended versions.
At three and a half minutes, it doesn't overdo it.

You probably wouldn't notice this version is edited until you compare
times. This mix is done very well and keeps the guts of the song intact.
The beginning and end are where most of the trimming takes place.

The pitch is increased slightly on this one, making it the standard Single
Version run faster than usual. The result is a shorter running time for
the same cut of the song.

Two versions of this song were recorded for The Cross album Shove It.
Freddie's vocals seem more suited to this song than Roger's (which are
also pretty good), which is probably one of the reasons it was dusted
off for Queen's Made In Heaven album. If this version sounds familiar,
that's why. Roger sings the intro, middle-eight and outro, absent from
the Queen version.

This is the other version of the song recorded for Shove It. Roger sings
the entire song, with Freddie singing back-up. The song feels lighter
and mellower compared to both Freddie's version and the eventual Queen
version. This version was also used on the video.

Brian May appears on this track, both on the album and the single, playing
some great guitar. This was the lead-off single for the album, so it came
out before the album did, making this version the Original. The differences
to the album aren't huge, but you'll notice the beefier guitars. Roger
sings "I want you to burn! Burn! Burn!" on this version, which is edited
on the album (except the last "Burn!") for some reason. This version is
also about ten seconds shorter, fading out earlier.

On all US formats (CD, LP and cassette), this version finishes off the
album. The difference between it and the UK version is the fifty-second
"Shove It" instrumental reprise, which also appears on The 2nd Shelf Mix"
ending the UK CD Shove It album. In a way, by itself, this version works
better than the UK Version, because it has a less-abrupt ending. This
version does appear on the UK LP, which excludes The 2nd Shelf Mix.

On the UK CD album, this version is the same as the US version, but does
not feature the fifty-second "Shove It" outro at the end. It doesn't need
to, because the next track is The 2nd Shelf Mix of "Shove It," which does
the same job (and has that outro at the end anyway). Without the album
outro, though, the song itself ends a little abruptly (but not badly).

The US alone lucked out by getting an extra song on its version of the album
(the UK version instead got The 2nd Shelf Mix). It's not the strongest song
on the album, but it isn't bad. It follows "Heaven For Everyone" (the version
with Roger's lead vocals), feeling like an optimistic sequel to that song.
This track, along with Roger's version of "Heaven For Everyone," make the
US edition of the album worth seeking out.
2nd Shelf Mix 5:50

This mix is basically the entire Shove It Extended Mix, with a fifty-second
instrumental reprise added to the end. This same reprise appears at the
end of the US version of "Rough Justice," acting on both UK and US versions
of the album as the outro.
Celebration 5:15
Written by Spike Edney
Appears on: Unreleased
An unreleased Cross track by Spike Edney that was recorded just after or
at the very end of the Shove It sessions. Celebration is a very Cross sounding
track, with some Hendrix-like opening guitar bits that goes quickly into
a synthesized sound. |
