Queen has released an official video to accompany their recently released new track Face it Alone, originally recorded in 1989, it was believed by the group to have been lost.
Recorded during sessions for 1989’s The Miracle, according to Pitchfork , Brian May told Radio 2’s Zoe Ball, “We looked at it many times and thought, oh no, we can’t really rescue that. But in fact, we went in there again and our wonderful engineering team went, okay, we can do this and this. It’s like kind of stitching bits together. But it’s beautiful. It’s touching.”
The rediscovered track has been given a makeover by an expert engineering team. And now there is a video to accompany the unmistakable vocals of Freddie Mercury.
Simon Lupton, creator of the video to the anthem, says of the single, “The meaning of the song has been interpreted that when something catastrophic occurs in your life, your instinct is to surround yourself with what is dearest and most important to you. Immersing himself in his work, and surrounding himself with his bandmates, gave Freddie that control. Of course, in the end, you have to face it alone – but the people around you can help how you face it.”
