Queen Has Released a Newly Unearthed Song ‘Face It Alone’ Featuring Freddie Mercury

Over the summer, Roger Taylor and Brian May disclosed that they had discovered a song by the band that had been kept under the wraps and performed by their late frontman, Freddie Mercury.

“And it’s wonderful,” Taylor told Zoe Ball during an interview on BBC Radio 2. “Actually, it was a real discovery. It’s from the ‘Miracle’ [1989] sessions.” May described the tune as “beautiful” and “touching”, adding: “It was kind of hiding in plain sight.”

You can watch the official lyric video for the song below.

A unique 7′′ vinyl edition of ‘Face It Alone,’ which is scheduled to release on 18^th November, is also available for pre-order.

The song will also be included in a limited collector’s edition box set of Queen's 13th studio record, 'The Miracle'.  According to a press statement, the eight-disc set includes six unheard tracks and an hour-plus disc of previously unreleased recordings.

The most revealing insight into the four members' creative process, excitement, inside jokes and banter on their return to working again, will be provided via a series of candid verbal interactions in the studio.

‘Face It Alone’ is the first new track featuring Freddie Mercury to be released in more than eight years.

Queen has released a handful of previously unheard songs featuring Freddie Mercury since his passing in 1991. They released the compilation album 'Queen Forever' in 2014, which featured forgotten songs from the 1980s.
