Video Info

Queen's final concert of the various Hot Space tours around the world was held in Tokorozawa, a suburb of Tokyo, Japan. Queen Live In Japan captures Queen's final concert of the various Hot Space tours around the world. Several songs from The Game, Flash Gordon, and Hot Space would be performed live for the final time at this show. Queen would not perform live again for 21 months.

The concert was professionally recorded and taped for official release. Queen Live In Japan was released in late 1983 on VHS, Betamax, and VHD formats. A laserdisc version appeared in 1986 followed by another VHS release in 1992. The concert was released again in 1999 on laserdisc and VHS with new artwork. All releases were made available only in Japan.

Flash / The Hero, the Now I'm Here medley, Crazy Little Thing Called Love, and Teo Torriatte were included as a bonus on the 2004 On Fire: Live At The Bowl DVD.

Action This Day

Action This Day (Live in Tokyo, November 1982) 6:25
Appears on: UK 2011 Hot Space Deluxe CD

Recorded live from Tokorozawa (a suburb of Toyko) at Siebu Lions Stadium, this live performance of Action This Day is fantastic. Highly recommended over the Live At The Bowl version. As an added bonus, Freddie does his vocal exercises with the audience at the end.

Calling All Girls

Calling All Girls (Live in Tokyo, November 1982) 4:45
Appears on: On Fire: Live At The Bowl DVD, UK 2011 Hot Space Deluxe CD

Recorded live from Siebu Lions Stadium in Tokorozawa (a suburb of Toyko), 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.
