2012 London Olympics Closing Ceremony


Bohemian Rhapsody (taped, no new Queen involvement), Freddie Singalong (via videoscreens, from Wembley 1986), Guitar Solo, We Will Rock You (Jessie J on vocals)

This performance was at the closing ceremony of the London 2012 Olympics, and was broadcast worldwide. 'Bohemian Rhapsody' was played from tape much earlier in the ceremony, and was a short excerpt only, with added effects. An edited version of Freddie's singalong from Wembley 1986 was shown on four giant videoscreens in the centre of the stadium, before a typical Brian solo, followed by 'We Will Rock You' with Jessie J on vocals, and Roger on drums and timpani. The full performance was released on the 'London 2012 Olympic Games' DVD and Blu-ray, while edited versions of each track were released on the 'A Symphony Of British Music' album and download. The album has a number of vocal overdubs, I am unsure whether the DVD has the same.
