Açıklama
This version of How Can I Go On from the Freddie Mercury - The Solo Collection 2000 CD by Peter Mew and was released on October 23rd, 2000 in the UK.
Recorded on April 9, 1987 at Townhouse Studios, this demo backing track goes way off into uncharted territory. There are no vocals, so you're left to wonder how the lyrics would have fit on this. This is certainly a highlight of the Solo Collection.
Written by: Freddie Mercury and Mike Moran
Produced by: Freddie Mercury, Mike Moran, and David Richards
Musicians:
Freddie Mercury - vocals, arrangements
Montserrat Caballé - vocals
Mike Moran - keyboards, programming, arrangements
John Deacon - bass guitar

Lyrics/Transcription:
Believe in me, yeah
Please take care of me, yeah
Change
How can I go on
From day to day
Meant to carry on
Who, yeah
Who can make me strong
De, de, de, dee, de
In this great big world of sadness
How can I forget
Those beautiful dreams that we shared
They're just and meant to be gone
De, de, de, de, dee
De, de, dee, de, de, dee, de, dee
Freddie: I know, we want it. But, but that was a good start, you know. Can we just go and hear it, I want to go and hear it.
Voice 1: Oh fuck it, I didn't put a tape in there
Voice 2: We weren't
Freddie: Oh we weren't, oh shit
Voice 3: I just caught a, started recording half way through
Freddie: Oh my God, my God, I thought it was fucking fab. Anyway, please take it quick, you know. God I love, wow, wow.
