Miracle Tour[edit]

There was no Miracle Tour. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 167.7.148.15 (talk) 12:40, 4 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I knew that "Rain must fall" was a Deacon/Mercury effort. Stefano --151.37.58.208 22:00, 22 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]


Re-wording?[edit]

Can this be reworded to show that the look-alikes were not teen-agers, but children? I cannot think of how to do it.

  • "Its video mimicked that of "The Invisible Man" in that it featured duplicate band members; however, these were actually young Queen lookalikes who performed a Queen-style stage show. "

I also think that it would be a good idea to tell how many children each band member got to look like the. Freddie got 4, Roger, Brian, and John all got 1 (talk about being worth less...)Billvoltage 05:29, 26 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]


Surely Freddie had one child too, his just dressed up in four iconic dress styles of Freddie's, mimicking previous famous videos.Tony2Times 17:03, 18 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
In INVISIBLE MAN guitair's solo Brian is duplicated (as the guitair sound) by computer effect. In miracle each member got one look-alike children (all circa 11-13 y.o.) —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 87.16.83.254 (talk) 02:51, 10 February 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Simply put, to call any member of this band "worthless" is to not know them well. Listen to Mr. Mercury's solo work, and you will hear how much Roger, John, and Brian brought to Queen. I am not saying Freddie's solo career was without merit or bereft of inspiration (I own and enjoy all his solo work), only that Queen was much more than Freddie, but would have been less without him as well. Freddie's doppleganger got four looks because basically, Brian and Roger maintained more or less their same image throughout Queen (adding only a wrinkle or two perhaps). Having said that, John changed a lot, going from long hair to short hair, and finally to (in my opinion), an awful 80's "man-perm." However, apart from the Bohemian Rhapsody video and to fans like me, that John had long hair once is not widely known. 65.248.164.214 (talk) 19:54, 11 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Kaposi's sarcoma[edit]

Several measures were taken to hide Mercury's deteriorating appearance, such as the growth of a beard to cover up skin blotches caused by Kaposi's sarcoma.

I've seen this statement needs a citation. I don't know if it's referred to the growth of a beard or simply to the Kaposi's sarcoma, anyway I've found this interview: in page #2 Roger Cooke, Kashmira’s husband, says:

"He didn’t tell anybody in the family. We gradually became aware he had an illness but we had no idea what it was or how serious it was. Then in August 1990 Kash and I saw a mark on his foot. It was Kaposi’s sarcoma (a malignant tumour of the connective tissue often associated with Aids).

“Kash asked what it was, whether it was getting better. Freddie said: ‘You have to understand that what I have is terminal. I’m going to die.’ That was it".

Track listing[edit]

The 12" version of ‘The Invisible Man’ does not seem to be on all the CD issues (in the UK at lest), shouldn't this be noted. Should the track listing (as with 'A kind of Magic') be as on the CD with side A and B omitted. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.56.105.71 (talk) 23:04, 12 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Allmusic Quote[edit]

The quote from Allmusic doesn't make sense. 

Allmusic would name it as Queen's best album of the 1980s, along with The Game.[2]

Are they saying there were TWO best albums? Can there be two 'best' albums? (If so, should it not be rephrased as "Allmusic would names The Miracle and The Game Queen's best albums of the 80s"?) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.19.100.164 (talk) 22:04, 14 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Genres[edit]

The genres should be hard rock,pop rock,arena rock and dance rock! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 151.47.166.150 (talk) 19:32, 28 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Artwork design[edit]

Might be worth amending the article to say that the artwork was produced by using a Quantel Graphic Paintbox - The name Paintbox is synonymous with TV production, but this artwork was made using a 'Graphic' Paintbox, a similar system that was designed to work with much higher resolution imagery for print media. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.22.201.252 (talk) 11:34, 9 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
