The track’s arrival as a single leads into the November 18 release of a new revisiting of the band’s 13th album, “The Miracle”, the band’s penultimate to be released in Freddie Mercury‘s lifetime, which now becomes available in a lavish eight-disc “The Miracle Collector’s Edition” box set format. The track’s existence was first revealed by May and Taylor in a BBC radio interview at their appearance at this year’s Royal Jubilee concert at which they performed the opening with their regular singer Adam Lambert, with Roger Taylor describing it as “a little gem from Freddie that we’d kind of forgotten about,” with Brian May saying “it’s beautiful, it’s touching.”
Having generated a media firestorm back in the summer when band-members Brian May and Roger Taylor first leaked news of a rediscovered QUEEN song featuring Freddie Mercury being considered for possible release, the highly anticipated “lost” track, “Face It Alone”, drops as a simultaneous worldwide single release today, Thursday, October 13.
