Album Info
To support Queen's newest album, Hot Space, the band set
out on a 30 date tour of Europe followed by an additional 39 dates in North
America and Japan. The final concert of the European leg was held at the
Milton Keynes Bowl, attracting approximately 65,000 people.
The new, exciting setlist consisted of the band's biggest hits and newest
tracks from Hot Space, performed here with more of a rock edge. Thankfully
the complete Milton Keynes concert was filmed and recorded. The Tube, a
UK television music show aired a large portion of the concert as did MTV
in the US.
Queen On Fire: Live At The Bowl was released on October 2004 in the UK on
DVD and CD formats. The DVD topped the video music chart while the CD reached
#20. The DVD added a second disc of bonus content including interviews,
highlights from the November 3, 1982 Tokyo show and the May 12, 1982 Vienna
show. A three LP vinyl box set was released June 6, 2005.

The iTunes video version differs from the Live At The Bowl album version.
The iTunes opening has Freddie saying "get your dirty address books
out and put this one in, I tell you, this next song. I have three words
to say.. Fat Bottomed Girls!." The Live At The Bowl CD splits Freddie's
opening between the end of Under Pressure and the beginning of Fat Bottomed
Girls. The iTunes Video Version ends almost immediately after the last guitar
noise, providing just a bit of audience reaction.

Recorded from Siebu Stadium, Tokyo, this great live version is found
as an extra on both the 2011 Hot Space Deluxe CD and on the Live At
The Bowl DVD. A great, heavier version of the song with an intro by
Freddie and an extended ending makes this a keeper.
