When we first recorded it, I went to Abbey Road and we ran through with just Freddie and piano. It gave me goosebumps. It was magic.. Then we got down to recording the track and we added 48 tracks of voices, which had never been done in Abbey Road before, then the whole backing… It was fabulous – but I still felt there was something about the original rehearsal.
The new version of the song was published on BBC2 radio. You can listen it below.
