Re: I dare you to find a better cover
The singer is pretty impressive - especially considering that he doesn't even have a moustache. I think the rest was pretty good, though a little bit mechanical/artificial. I doubt anyone has done a better job covering that song though.

pretty freaking amazing vocal cover--virtually indistinguishable, though the guitarist needs to be booted IMO.

?????? You're kidding. Right?
I didn't hear anything remotely boot worthy. Actually, I thought it was played well.

Re: I dare you to find a better cover
The guitarist managed to hit the notes, but he really sounded like he was barely keeping up or playing to sheet music. I don't think the feel was quite there. He may have had a bit too much distortion going on and had to pull back a bit on his pick attack or something. He knows the song better than I do though.

Not enough mustache. Tom Selleck should cover a Queen song.

I used to have more Orange stuff. Now I just have a PPC412 (black), and a Micro Crush.

Re: I dare you to find a better cover
I think the guitarist played what he was supposed to. It's his vibrato that makes it sound like it's dragging IMO.
Red rocked it BTW.

Re: I dare you to find a better cover
Believe it or not, this song is very very old.

This is from a local Queen tribute band called Queen for a Day - they are VERY good and he's playing piano while singing this (its in two parts, I'm just posting one - which has an intro that is similar to how Freddie did it live). There are lots of videos of them out there. I don't think they are still together.
