Information about Queen's last studio album and singles:
The album release dates were November 6th and 7th and 8th, 1995 worldwide.
The album is available on CD, Cassette, and limited edition Gatefold Vinyl
album with ivory colored record. (The latter was a UK release, though
Hollywood Records bought some and placed their stickers on the cover and
released them in North America.)
The track listing is as follows, songs not indicated otherwise are new:
- 1) It's A Beautiful Day
- 2) Made In Heaven (Queen version of the Freddie solo song)
- 3) Let Me Live
- 4) Mother Love
- 5) My Life Has Been Saved (Re-worked version of Queen b-side)
- 6) I Was Born To Love You (Queen version of Freddie solo song)

The songs that are "re-worked" versions have Freddie’s original vocals
*not* vocals that were recorded after Innuendo. (Many magazine reviews
have gotten this wrong). For these tracks, the old vocals were used,
but Brian, Roger, and John did completely new instrumental tracks.

The album cover photo was taken at Lake Geneva in Montreux, Switzerland.
There are two different cover photos -- one on the Vinyl and one on the
CD/Cassette releases. The sunrise photo was used on the CD booklet and
Cassette, while a sunset photo was used on the vinyl release.
Yes, it is a picture of a statue of Freddie. It is the miniature of the
statue which was commissioned to commemorate Freddie, and the picture
was taken in the sculptor's garden and combined with the photo from
the lake. The full-size statue was not yet built when the photo was taken,
and there was a lot of controversy surrounding its final location. The
completed statue is now in Montreux, Switzerland.
