This is a very effective and radio friendly mix of album version, which comes in at 5:46. The intro is edited very nicely and is very seamless. There is a very abrupt edit at 3:36, which takes out the middle instrumental section. From there it goes onto the normal ending.

A pretty good extended mix. A large instrumental portion was added at the beginning, which lasts over 45 seconds. This and a few extra elements from the instrumental version account for the longer run time. It is a tad bit lengthy though.

This is pretty much the same as the album mix, just without the lead vocals. A few new elements are added. Nice to hear the backing track though.

A very long unofficial remix of the extended and instrumental versions. Track starts with some "radio tuning" sound effects that appear throughout. This one would have worked well as a Hollywood Records remix. A little too long though.

A good mix in that it doesn't take anything away from the original version and actually adds quite a bit to it. Features a longer solo from Brian and an added a capella chorus vocals, which adds quite a bit to the song. Recommended.

Great instrumental version. It's nice just to year the basic piano, guitar, and drums of this track. Fades slightly early at the end. Starts with a click track.

This track premiered at the 20th International Fan Club Convention in Prestatyn. It starts with some extra piano, then Freddie Mercury counts-in. The vocal takes are different from the multitrack master. The track cuts off halfway through.

At almost 3 minutes longer than the album version, this extended mix can get a little repetitive. That being said, it is a fun mix with lots of added piano, bass, and vocal bits. The added instrumental bits make it sound more like a jam session. If you liked the album version, you'll love this.

A neat remixed instrumental version. Just as it starts to become boring, the track adds extra guitar from Brian (not surprising since he remixed it) and samples from other Queen songs (Ogre Battle, Goin' Back, etc).

Probably the most common single version of any track in the Queen catalogue. This version starts out with the instrumental section that appears in the video and the extended version (as opposed to the album mix, where it doesn't appear). Superior to the album version.

Track begins with the like the single remix, just with a longer instrumental section. Various instrumental sections are repeated and looped throughout the song. The track ends with a mix of other songs of the works (much like More of That Jazz). Stick with the single remix version.

I Want To Break Free (Mixtime Remix) 4:25
Written by John Deacon
Appears on: Italy Mixtime vinyl
This is a very strange unofficial mix of I Want To Break Free that only appears on the Italian Mixtime DJ compilation vinyl release. It is similar to the Single Remix, but has most of the extended opening that appears on the Extended Version. The final verse starting with "But life goes on.." is omitted. Unlike the Extended Version, this does not have the mix of tracks from The Works at the end.

For the most part, this track is the same as the album version until the last two minutes of the track, which is mostly synthesizer loops and various sound effects. Not really that great.

Keep Passing The Open Windows (Demo) 4:46
Written by Freddie Mercury
Appears on: Unreleased
A studio demo featuring just Freddie (on piano and vocals), Roger, and John. There are no guitar solos or anything from Brian, which suggests this is just a guide demo. Quality is excellent but the performance is a bit rough. Lyrics are still being worked out and Freddie is just quickly singing through the performance. John's bass work comes out very well and is very close to the final release.

A home recording exists of Freddie performing this song on piano. Of course there's no lyrics yet and the typical Freddie a capella.

An excellent edit and perfect for a single release. This version edits about a minute of Brian's instrumental guitar work, which was too much for a single release.

Basically the same as the album mix, just with a very different drum sound (sounds more snappy as opposed to the big drum sound). Vocals on the last verse have been remixed with a phase effect. Neat mix.

This appeared as a B-side to a US 12" promo. Contains the same audio as the video for the song. Crowd noises can be heard at the beginning, end, and mixed sporadically throughout; other than that, the audio is the same as the single edit.

Just like the regular release, just with a longer drum intro. Preferred to the regular mix.
