Queen Deep Dive: "It's a Hard Life" in a world that's filled with sorrow
Manage episode 394589593 series 3548696
Freddie delivers a powerhouse vocal performance in his touching and dramatic declaration "It's a Hard Life". Incorporating operatic and ballad elements, this song echoes several earlier Freddie compositions and continues his journey of love. It's also a welcome return to Queen's no-synths approach, with all the boys returning full force to their respective instruments and wall of sound choral harmonies. As impactful and powerful as the album version is, I'm surprisingly torn about the live performances. And the flashy video polarized the band.
