Strange Frontier (Video Version)
4:21
Written by Roger Taylor
Appears on: Unreleased
The audio of the video version is the same as
the album version, just with added underwater sounds at the beginning.
The opening and end of the video features divers, which necessitated the
extra sound effects.
Strange Frontier (Extended Version) 8:35

Appears on: UK
Strange Frontier 12" vinyl
One of my personal favorite Extended Versions of all the Queen and related
releases. Lots of extra drums (and synth) from Roger, most notably at
the beginning with over a minute and a half added. A very nice extended
remix and highly recommended.

Man On Fire 12" vinyl
Another really good extended release from this album. This version adds
over two minutes of extra material, mostly at the very long instrumental
opening.

I Cry For You
(Love, Hope And Confusion) (Single Remix) 4:08
Written by Taylor/Richards, Remixed by John Deacon
Appears on: UK
Strange Frontier 7" vinyl
A nice single remix by fellow Queen member John
Deacon (with some added bass playing). At first the track starts off the
same, but noticably changes with some different synth sounds, heavy bass
(not surprising), and without the vocal intro.
I Cry For You (Love,
Hope And Confusion) (Extended
Version) 6:23
Written by Taylor/Richards, Remixed by John Deacon
& Mack
Appears on: UK
Strange Frontier 12" vinyl
Remixed by John Deacon and Queen producer Mack. The final extended version
from the Strange Frontier sessions is just as good as the previous two.
This features a new intro with some great stereo vocal and sound effects.
Highly recommended just because the added parts add so much to the richness
of the track. Many consider this to be the best version of the song.

Two Sharp Pencils (Get Bad) 3:22
Written by Roger Taylor
Appears on: UK
Strange Frontier 12" vinyl
A very 80s sounding B-side only track with lots of synth throughout. Roger's
vocals have been electronically altered so much that it doesn't sound like
him (sounds more like a deep voiced early Rap artist). A very funky and
odd track.
Keep On Running 2:58
Written by Jackie Edwards
Appears on: Unreleased
This Spencer Davis Group cover was supposed to be on the album, but was
left on the cutting room floor. This stays fairly close to the original
and sounds pretty good. I think adding this to the album would have made
it too heavy on covers, and this would have definitely been filler. Would
have made a nice B-side though.

I Want To Take You Higher 3:20
Written by Roger Taylor
Appears on: Unreleased
An unreleased track from the Strange Frontier sessions. Not a bad song at
all, this features a real thick sound with simplistic lyrics. Again, would
have been a nice B-side.
I Can Take You Higher (End Edit) 0:40
Written by Roger Taylor
Appears on: Unreleased
This is just a fragment of an unreleased track. Not to be confused with
I Want To Take You Higher from the same sessions. This track sounds very
promising, too bad it's just the last 40 seconds of a song. |
