An alternate mix of the later version has also been played at one of the Queen fan club conventions. Freddie: That wasn't bad. Why don't we just carry on from there I had this perfect dream
This dream was me and you
I want all the world to see
A miracle sensation
My guide and inspiration
Now my dream is slowly coming true

They're calling us together
Guiding us forever

Like a jewel in the sun
Tonight my stars in heaven tell me will be friends (ooooh, oooh)

De nuestras almas
Vuelan, nos llaman
Al son de la eternidad

This version is similar to the album version, but has different drums and other instrumentation. My love is dangerous, dangerous
My love is dangerous
Always make you bleed, always make you bleed
Always make you bleed, love is dangerous, yeah
Don't follow in my footsteps, you don't belong to me
You only make a mistake, don't try understand me

Got to follow my own course
Got to go back to my losing games, yeah
I guess this is the end of love, yeah
Nobody understands me

Love Me Like There's No Tomorrow
(2nd early version)
Details of the album version can be found on the 'Mr Bad Guy' album page. Length 1:01.
This version is virtually identical to the album version, apart from the lyrics.
The track fades in part way into the song and ends a-capella. Got to face the fact and start all over again
Got to realise it's nearly over
Got to stay but on my own again
I guess this is the end of love
She doesn't understand me
But I still care
We decided to go our own separate ways

Love Me Like There's No Tomorrow
(3rd early version)
Details of the album version can be found on the 'Mr Bad Guy' album page. Length 3:25.
This version has a very similar sound to the album version, but different lyrics. First step in love and I'm in sinking sand
I've never felt so high and low
You always had to have the upper hand
You had to go and ruin all our plans
Packed your bags and you're leaving home
Got a one way ticket and you're all set to go
But we have one more day together, so
Love me like there's no tomorrow
Hold me in your arms, tell me you mean it
This is our last goodbye but very soon it will be over
But today just love me like there's no tomorrow
I guess I have to play the lonely man
I don't have all that far to go
Got caught in love and stepped in sinking sand
I've never felt so low in all my life, yeah
I was born to be a loser
But I guess there's a limit on how far we go
But we only have one more day together, so
Love me like there's no tomorrow
Hold me in your arms, tell me you mean it
This is our last goodbye but very soon it will be over
But today just love me like there's no tomorrow
Tomorrow - God knows just where I'll be
Tomorrow - who knows just what's in store for me
Anything can happen but we only have one more day together, yeah
Just one more day together, so
Love me like there's no tomorrow
Hold me in your arms, tell me you mean it
This is our last goodbye but very soon it will be over
But today just love me like there's no tomorrow
Ooh, love me like there's no tomorrow
Hold me in your arms, tell me you mean it
This is our last goodbye
But very soon it will be over

Man Made Paradise
(unreleased version)
Details of the album version can be found on the 'Mr Bad Guy' album page. Length 0:35.
This version is very similar to the album version, but features additional harmonied vocals. It is probably a Freddie demo, but there is a chance it is a Queen demo. It appears in 'Freddie Mercury - The Untold Story', but unfortunately has interviews over the top. Come into my life, to my life
It's a man made paradise
Come into my life, to my life

Rachmaninov's Revenge
(early version)
Details of the album version, retitled as 'The Fallen Priest', can be found on the 'Barcelona' album page. Length 4:44.
This track features only Freddie's vocals, and most of the track is ad-libbed. It is clearly a very early version of the track. Although the basic structure is there, it is very different in places. So you think you really only me
I know my life's been so lonely
I know the way that you belong to me
The way I feel is that you'll own me (The rest of the track is made up of virtually only ad-libbed lyrics; only those known are listed below) I know, the same old
And oooh
The way you feel lonely
Rachmaninov's Revenge
(later version)
Details of the album version, retitled as 'The Fallen Priest', can be found on the 'Barcelona' album page. Length 5:48.
This version is much more developed than the earlier version, with a structure very similar to the album version; the only main difference is the lyrics.
The track was later released on the 'Barcelona - Special Edition' CD and DVD set. Free, free
So now you really think you own me
When I gave up all me love for you only
I want to feel the way we were before
My life is in your hands and I love you madly (The rest of the track is made up of virtually only ad-libbed lyrics; only those known are listed below) And when you talk about love
I can see everything you took from me and more
Bring back my love
Bring back my love
To me
Why don't you believe me
You're breaking my heart
Farewell my heart
Just take my love and go away
You want me for
The Golden Boy
(1st and 2nd early versions)
Details of the album version can be found on the 'Barcelona' album page.
1st early version length 3:52. 2nd early version length 2:54.
Both versions are quite similar to the album versions, but both are missing the proper outro. Freddie sings Montserrat's vocals in both versions. The first version contains the instrumental intro, whereas the second does not.
The first early version was later released on the 'Barcelona - Special Edition' CD and DVD set.
An excerpt of the second early version appears on the 'The Great Pretender' DVD scene selection screen, from the start of the track onwards, fading out from 0:56 to 1:01. Freddie: This time, let it, let it go forward. Dee, dee, dee, dee, dee, dee, dah, dah, dah, dah, dah, dahh The boy had a way with words, he sang
He moved with grace, he entertained
So naturally, no gesture out of place
His road in life was clearly drawn, he didn't hesitate
He played, they saw, he conquered as the master of
As the master of his fate
The girl had an iron soul, no-one could recognise
Material ambition that her gentleness disguised
She pinned a stat to his, in certain knowledge of his fame
Wanted him for luxury, for limelight and his name
I love you for your silence
I love you for your peace
The still and calm releases That sweeps into my soul
That slowly, slowly takes control
I love you for your passion
I love you for your fire
The violent desire
That strips me in it's flame
A love, a love I dare not name
His rise was irresistible, he grew into the part
His explanation simply that he suffered for his art His no base considerations of some glittering reward
The prize was knowing that (ad-libbed lyrics) his work was noticed and adored, yeah Slow down Accepting every honour with a masterly, masterly display
Of well rehearsed reluctance to be singled out this way
He started out to believe that he was all they'd said and more
While she forgot the reasons that she had wanted him before, yeah Ow
The Great Pretender
(demo version)
Details of the single version can be found on the Miscellaneous Songs page. Length 3:03.
This version is virtually identical to the album version, but is a much more basic arrangement, and features fewer backing vocals. One, two, three, four
Oh yes, I'm the great pretender (oooh-ooh-oooh-ooh)
Pretending I'm doing well (oooh-ooh-oooh-ooh)
My need is such
I pretend too much
I'm lonely but no-one can tell
Oh yes, I'm the great pretender (oooh-ooh-oooh-ooh)
Adrift in a world of my own (oooh-ooh-oooh-ooh)
I play the game
But to my real shame
You've left me to dream all alone
Too real is this feeling of make believe
Too real when I feel what my heart can't conceal
Oh yes, I'm the great pretender (oooh-ooh-oooh-ooh)
Just laughing and gay like a clown (oooh-ooh-oooh-ooh)
I seem to be what I'm not you see
I'm wearing my heart like a crown
Pretending that you're still around
Ooooh-oh-ooh-oh-oooh
Too real when I feel what my heart can't conceal
Ooh, oh yes, I'm the great pretender (oooh-ooh-oooh-ooh)
Just laughing and gay like a clown (oooh-ooh-oooh-ooh)
I seem to be what I'm not you see
I'm wearing my heart like a crown
Pretending that you're still around
Your Kind Of Lover
(early version)
Details of the album version can be found on the 'Mr Bad Guy' album page. Length 4:45.
This version is similar to the album version, but the instrumentation is slightly different, and Freddie's vocals are 'phased' to produce a multi-vocal effect. The vocal/piano version is virtually identical. Now you say you're leaving me
I just can't believe it's true
You're my kind of lover
Wanna little bit of feeling
Add a little bit of meaning to my life
I wanna little bit of feeling
A little bit of meaning to my life
