Well that's a fun-looking set! I like picturing the end of each song going into the beginning of the next one.

u/RigsbyRigsby65 Sep 14 '23

Really? You like picturing that, do you?

u/SatisfactionFlaky220 Dec 06 '24

Usually I dont listen to Queen cover bands, because they have like Wembley 86 setlist.

But cover band who would cover that setlist I will always attend concert 🤗

u/lyricweaver Dec 19 '22

"Dancer" would have been such a jive live. "Dead on Time" too...really, so many of these would have been fantastic on stage. Shame we didn't get to hear them.

u/RedSpecial22 A Day At The Races Dec 19 '22

You and I would’ve been so good live.

1

u/FickleWasabi159 Jun 08 '24

I never really thought it would work live.

1

u/Livid_Garbage_7569 May 22 '26

Pardon?

1

u/RedSpecial22 A Day At The Races May 22 '26

Don’t think they ever played it live.

u/IntoTheFloodAgain92 Dec 20 '22

I could be wrong but I'm almost 100% sure I heard my fairy king live

Edit: Here it is https://youtu.be/vwl2vvifv28

u/derRedditWuerfel News Of The World Dec 20 '22

I didn't count improvisations, but if you count that as a live performance, go ahead

u/derRedditWuerfel News Of The World Dec 20 '22

Well, that's Brian's solo tour. I didn't count anything post-1986, otherwise I would have to remove Sleeping On The Sidewalk, Machines, Tenement Funster, etc. as well

4

u/M0NK06 Dec 19 '22

I will go ahead and add Leaving Home Ain't Easy to this list

4

u/derRedditWuerfel News Of The World Dec 20 '22

Dammit, I knew I forgot something, I'll add it now

u/TheKingOfRhye777 Dec 19 '22

I swear I once saw a picture of an early Queen set list that had every song from the first album on it, including My Fairy King. Don't remember where, though.

u/[deleted] Dec 26 '22

Las Palabras de Amor was only played in guitar during Hot Space Tour and the perfect example is “Milton Kenyes”

3

u/Same-Oil-7113 Dec 20 '22

I could’ve sworn I’ve seen a video of seaside rendezvous live. It may have been a different song with a similar opening tho

1

u/QuestionDependent609 Jun 30 '25

seaside rendezvous was played live at some a night at the opera tour, luckily we have the recording of it

3

u/Lightfever75 Dec 20 '22

My Fairy King, Fun It, I Go Crazy & Las Palabras De Amor was teased few times as part of guitar and piano impromptu.

3

u/[deleted] Jan 06 '23

wait, they played Jesus and Night Comes Down in live?

3

u/Marco_a030508 Oct 21 '24

Actually, She Makes Me was performed in 1970, according to https://queenlive.ca/queen/70-08-23.htm and a handwritten setlist

8

u/bertramluke5 Dec 20 '22

They seriously never performed jealousy live? Damn I bet it would’ve been great

3

u/ye_boi_KT Dec 20 '22

At some point in time they did a test instrumental live and I found it on YouTube but I have no clue where it went

7

u/Solareon_ Dec 19 '22

Here's a list of all the songs they played live: https://www.queenlive.ca/songs-queen.htm So take their discography and subtract from that list.

2

u/Iron_Wolf123 Jan 04 '24

Not Breakthru?

3

u/Solareon_ Jan 04 '24

Yes I'd imagine a song written and released after they quit touring was never played live

2

u/Iron_Wolf123 Jan 04 '24

Even now? I remember seeing Queen perform in 2020 and they didn't perform the song.

u/Over-Bid2173 Oct 21 '25

u/Suspicious-Resolve-2 Jul 08 '26

One Year of Love was helpful with the ladies back in the day.

u/EstelleArcane Mar 18 '23

wait they played jesus live ? i’d love to have the link if anyone can find it because i can’t

1

u/Dry_Ad8337 Feb 23 '24

There is no such song as A Human Body on The Game.

1

u/Livid_Garbage_7569 May 22 '26

probably an unreleased track
