Play The Game (with Andy Gibb)

There is a rumored version of Play The Game that features Andy Gibb doing some sort of vocal work with Queen. It is still unknown if this has ever existed or if the tapes have survived over the years.

Dragon Attack
(Hollywood Records 1991 Remix) 4:22
Written by Brian May, Remixed by R.A.K. and Jack Benson
Appears on: The Game Hollywood Remaster (1991)

Not a bad remix. Starts with audio samples, sounds effects, and a Freddie vocal loop. Includes a pretty neat backbeat that fits the song well. Brian's guitar solos are removed and an added rap was included by some random rapper. Actually not that bad, except for the rap part.

Dragon Attack (The eYe Version) 4:22
Written by Brian May
Appears on: Queen: The eYe

From the Electronic Arts videogame, Queen: The eYe. A full instrumental of the album version with some interesting remixing here and there of some drum and bass bits.

Dragon Attack (Early Demo) 3:01
Written by Brian May
Appears on: Unreleased

This track premired at the 19th International Fan Club Convention in Prestatyn. Possibly from the Jazz sessions. Mostly instrumental with some shouts, little guitar, and the Dragon Attack bass loop.

Another One Bites The Dust (Ogilvie Remix) 6:00

Written by John Deacon
Appears on: Hollywood Records Freakshow Sampler

Another Hollywood Remix that for some reason was ommitted from The Game 1991 re-release. This is basically an Electronic/Dance mix of the song. Includes samples of Bohemian Rhapsody. Not really worth finding and not worth spending the money for the Freakshow CD.

Another One Bites The Dust (Long Dusted B-Boy Version) 10:40
Written by John Deacon
Appears on: Hollywood BASIC Beat Sampler
This sampler was issued to promote the then-forthcoming (ultimately unreleased) collection of remixes called Queen: The BASIC Bootlegs. A very, very long remix which is just wild, sampling everything you could think of (radio commercials, other Queen songs, old funk and soul songs) and adding some rap segments and redoing the backing track. At times it drifts so far away from the original as to be an entirely different thing, and then it somehow makes it way back. This mix is not for purists, but is strangely not very repetitive and is more listenable than a lot of remixes of this song.

The exact same as the Annie Crummer version, just with the lead vocals removed. Nice to hear the remixed parts.

This version has absolutely no instrumentation, just Wyclef, Freddie, Pras, and Free. There is some added spoken parts at the beginning, the end, and throughout the track. Kind of interesting.

Appears on: Queen + Wyclef Jean Another One Bites The Dust CD single

The best of the Wyclef Jean mixes by far. The backing track of the original song has been maintained more, with the bass riff being looped. The track starts with a vocal intro by Wyclef pondering if he can be a black rockstar. All of Wyclef's and Freddie's parts from the LP version have been maintained. I recommend this one over the LP version, just because more of the original song is maintained. Some of Brian's guitars even come through now and again.

An effective and a to the point edit of the Main Pass Mix. The edit probably works a little better than the full version just because there is little filler.

This is an energetic remix that speeds up the track and is definitely meant for the club circuit. If you're into remixes, this isn't bad and whole song seems to be in there.

This remix extends the Radio Mix, with a long intro and some added effects throughout. It closes with a similarly long outro.

The backing dance track from the CG&SS Radio Mix has been stretched to more than twice its original length and the vocals have almost entirely been dropped (except a few samples).

This is a calmer remix from the Miami Project, with some spacey synthesizers and effects. It runs a bit long, but isn't too bad.

There are times in this remix when it doesn't seem to know what it's doing or where it's going, but not quite in the fun way a mix like the Long Dusted B-Boy version does. When you need to change everything up every 30 seconds to keep the mix going, you might want to ask yourself if you're accomplishing what you set out to do.

I guess the unwritten rule of the dance remix is: The longer, the better. This remix is long and as you would expect, it's rather repetitive. Repetition is not bad if it's something worth repeating. The original is such a simple, catchy song, that two things will grow out of its success: a lot of remixes and a lot of remixes like this one. They all start to sound the same and this one sounds the most the same.

There are no verses to the song, just "Another one bites the dust" sampled over and over. The rest is the usual dance mix fodder, with little recognizable as anything Queen.

Appears on: US & UK The Game DVD-Audio

A neat mix from the excellent DVD-Audio disc of The Game. This mix was basically made out of necessity, for the original master tapes had been lost. Without these original tapes, a 5.1 channel mix with the necessary effects would have been impossible. So instead, Brian found recordings from another session to replace the missing tape. The infamous missing tape was of Roger's backing vocal at the beginning of the track. The track is exactly the same as the old album version except for Roger's opening vocals. Neat curiousity and quite surprising if you don't expect it.

Great B-side featuring Roger on vocals and interesting lyrics. This has yet to appear (surprisingly) on any CD release. Backing vocals are Roger, Freddie, and Brian. Definitely worth finding on MP3 or on the 7" vinyl. This of course will finally appear on CD for the Queen Anthology release.
