Bb4 and B4s are consistently amazing in this song and it’s overall a wonderful vocal from freddie. One of the few “vocal only” versions of any queen song that I really love listening to
Death on two legs is a great song - I love playing that intro on piano, it's amazing. I hope to place a tutorial on my RUclips channel on how to play this song at some stahe this year !
freddie's distortion is so satisfying dude, it sounds so vulgar and strong in this song (distortion really helps those harmonies blend as well, thanks roger)
but if you notice, he only does it in certain parts. it's a really common producer's trick now. you have single voice during the verse or whatever, then when you wanna add some punch, emphasis to a certain lyric, or just get a bit bigger and more bombastic, you add in a couple doubles of the vocal line. and that's just on the lead vocals. queen had 3 singers. Freddie (the rough, meaty mid-range), Brian (the soft, low range), and Roger (the high piercing earsplitting range). By just some cosmic struck of luck those three voices met and obviously blended so well together. It just created this massive sound. Then on top of THAT, the would double the track many many times. Bohemian Rhapsody has 33 tracks of the 3 of them singing. Thus creating a 99 voice choir. Queen was one of the first great utilizers of the multi-tracking phenomenon. Brian Wilson had to have an entire orchestra and do it all LIVE. i highly suggest checking out 10cc and their song I'm Not in Love. The whole song is dozens of sampled vocal parts played on an early synthesizer. People used to mistake them for Queen all the time.
Yeah, double tracking was used so often in fact that an Abby Road engineer invented ADT or automatic double tracking. That way a vocalist wouldn't have to manually record two slightly different vocal tracks to double his voice.
You suck my blood like a leech You break the law and you preach Screw my brain till it hurts You've taken all my money And you want more Misguided old mule with your pig headed rules With your narrow minded cronies Who are fools of the first division Death on two legs You're tearing me apart Death on two legs You've never had a heart of your own Kill joy bad guy big talking small fry You're just an old barrow boy Have you found a new toy to replace me? Can you face me? But now you can kiss my ass goodbye Feel good are you satisfied? Do you feel like suicide? (I think you should) Is your conscience all right Does it plague you at night? Do you feel good feel good? You talk like a big business tycoon You're just a hot air balloon So no one gives you a damn You're just an overgrown schoolboy Let me tan your hide A dog with disease You're the king of the 'sleaze' Put your money where your mouth is Mister know-all Was the fin on your back Part of the deal? (shark) Death on two legs You're tearing me apart Death on two legs You've never had a heart (you never did) of your own (right from the start) Insane you should be put inside You're a sewer rat decaying in a cesspool of pride Should be made unemployed Then make yourself null and void Make me feel good I feel good

Espectacular oír cantar a Freddie con ese grave y esa fuerza y recordar que de igual manera la canto en vivo ES UN AGASAJO AUDITIVO

Would tend to agree apart from the "Shark" being rather "dissonant", perhaps a "semitone" or two off... !

Every time he says Mr Know-all I get chills
nice rolling of the R at 1:09
He liked to roll a nice R's

An old Beach Boy technique: Freddie "Double Tracks" alot of his lead vocals. Brian Wilson made an art out of that all thru the 60's.
but if you notice, he only does it in certain parts. it's a really common producer's trick now. you have single voice during the verse or whatever, then when you wanna add some punch, emphasis to a certain lyric, or just get a bit bigger and more bombastic, you add in a couple doubles of the vocal line. and that's just on the lead vocals. queen had 3 singers.

You're wrong, was The Beatles, they made popular that
freddie was a big beach boys fan, along with hendrix and the beatles, it's no wonder they were such a great vocal band
just savin this
Apparently they didn't use pop-filter! Freddie's "p"s are bursting and I like it! I'm gonna try it, recording a song without pop-filter.

Best parts of the song
same
It would be very proactive of you to start where the vocals start instead of the long silent intros.
But then if you're mixing, you have to figure out for yourself where the song syncs with instrumentals. !!!
Not if your a musician playing along

So cool
You suck my blood like a leech
You break the law and you preach
Screw my brain till it hurts
You've taken all my money
And you want more
Misguided old mule with your pig headed rules
With your narrow minded cronies
Who are fools of the first division
Death on two legs
You're tearing me apart
Death on two legs
You've never had a heart of your own
Kill joy bad guy big talking small fry
You're just an old barrow boy
Have you found a new toy to replace me?
Can you face me?
But now you can kiss my ass goodbye
Feel good are you satisfied?
Do you feel like suicide?
(I think you should)
Is your conscience all right
Does it plague you at night?
Do you feel good feel good?
You talk like a big business tycoon
You're just a hot air balloon
So no one gives you a damn
You're just an overgrown schoolboy
Let me tan your hide
A dog with disease
You're the king of the 'sleaze'
Put your money where your mouth is
Mister know-all
Was the fin on your back
Part of the deal? (shark)
Death on two legs
You're tearing me apart
Death on two legs
You've never had a heart (you never did) of your own (right from the start)
Insane you should be put inside
You're a sewer rat decaying in a cesspool of pride
Should be made unemployed
Then make yourself null and void
Make me feel good I feel good
You suck my blood like a leech
You break the law and you breach
Screw my brain till it hurts
You've taken all my money and you want more
Misguided old mule
With your pig headed rules
With your narrow minded cronies

Death on two legs
You're tearing me apart
Death on two legs
You've never had a heart of your own
