Can you say anything more about the Was It All Worth It video, is it an animation, does it include the band? Thank you so much for sharing, much appreciated. It's predominantly animation. Very basic. But does have a few video clips. I'll be honest and say I wouldn't even know where to start making it myself, but it's not something I'm ever likely to want to watch again. Other's may feel differently. Anyway. It's an online freebie and not part of the boxset, so it's not taking up room on a disc that could have been better used. Oof. Such dissapointing news for such a grandiose and powerful gem of a song. Imagine what they would have shot back in the day, had they decided to make a video for that one... I'd rather they made nothing than a sub par video for WIAWI. I feel the same about that LMLTNT animation. But here's hoping (finger cross).. I won't say more before I see it. I am an optimist by nature. Thanks for the info, mr. Wig  |

I wonder why Doro wouldn’t be willing to supply masters of the music video‘s, Is the relationship that bad? Money I would suspect. Prime example, Brian May expected Rudi Dolezal to give him the master tapes of The Magic Years & the B-roll for free. That never happened. Is that actually true ?
What I read was that he just wanted the footage of his late father, and they were asking an extortionate amount of money for it.

The Miracle as never heard before. Sourced from a master tape from March 1989, the Long Lost Cut reinstates ‘Too Much Love Will Kill You’ as it was originally intended, in the exact position on Side One allotted in 1989, nestled between ‘I Want It All’ and ‘The Invisible Man’.I've lost track a bit on the TMLWKY issue. Is it or is it not a different version to the version on MIH? The above seems to suggest it's just been put back in the right place "as it was originally intended", but that doesn't imply it's a different version to the one we know. By all accounts, the version on MIH is the version that was meant to appear on The Miracle. So where is there any indication that the box set version will be different? The wording is key - "originally intended," not "original version." I think this confusion is the result of a mistranslation.
Anyone who's still hoping for a different arrangement/mix is going to be disappointed.

They asked Brian to pay up for a piece of memory of his dad? That's a low blow. The guy just wanted one last memory of his own dad! As for the TMLWKY thing. Pretty sure it's obvious that the version they're gonna release the version that came out in MIH. Still weird they'll only add it on the LP. Again, not a problem for streaming though, so there's that. |

Exactly! I'm sure it's the version they used on MIH that's on the Capitol tape, so it's not going to be any different for this. |

I'm no production expert but here's how I see it - it's the Ludwig remaster of The Miracle with the Ludwig remaster of MIH's TMLWKY thrown in. But let's forget production for a moment - what ended up on MIH is the exact same track that was omitted from The Miracle. What is on the Capitol tape shows this, there is no difference in performance whatsoever. No subtle vocals changes, no extra (or fewer) lines, no sensational new guitar solos, no difference in the take at all. Nothing. If you expect otherwise, you're in for a sore day when your set arrives.

This will be the poster (HMV) or file folder (Tower Records) that you will receive if you buy the Japanese edition of the box or 2-CD set.  I think Brian's jacket is the one "Brian May" wore in the movie for one of the scenes:  |

And...Why Face It Alone video isn`t included in the box set? Because the box was finalised before the video was done. The video is a mere after-thought, and typical from QPL. |

To my very big surprise, my Box set was delivered yesterday! Normally I am a reader here and no active poster, but in this case it seems I have something that most people don't, at this moment. - TMLWKY on the LP sounds to me the same as it is on MIH. - Blu-ray/DVD videos: IWIA is in 16:9, the rest of the videos is in 4:3 Audio is Stereo LPCM and DTS-HD Surround - Audio commentary and extra's are the same as on The Greatest Video Hits DVD from 2002 - The Miracle Sessions CD is great, you are in for a treat |

Where was it delivered from? I live in The Netherlands. I didn't order on the Queenonline store, because in the past there were a lot of surprises with taxes etc when I ordered, so I wanted to wait for an option to order it in my own country. On october 14th it appeared on Bol.com for pre-order for 199 Euro. At the same time there was on that website another seller that had it for 147 Euro (That was DVDoutlet.nl). More than 50 Euro difference so I bought from DVDoutlet via Bol.com. (Bol offers that you can pay afterwards, so I saw no risk. Actually I thought that my order would be cancelled once they discovered it was too cheap maybe) Anyway, I got confirmation of my order and it said: delivery in 4-6 days. Since then I really expected an email with cancellation or explanation that it woud move to november 18th (After my order it dissapeared from the website, only the 199 Euro one is there). But then friday I got an email that it was sent and it arrived yesterday |

If it's true that some people have already received this, what say we have a "no spoilers" policy until the release date?
Personally, I'd rather have the enjoyment of hearing this for the first time when it arrives, then we can all compare notes together.

Having just checked on DVDOutlet.nl, it doesn't even appear to be listed.
