o/' You gonna take me to that Dreamer's Ball...? o/'

:D From Dreamer's Ball, Queen. Lovely stuff!

All right, I'm afraid I have to retract one of my comments from one of my first blog rants. You may recall that I commented on the samples used in the Seven Seas of Rhye Remix. Ha ha! Of course you don't, I'm just kidding.

When commenting on one of the vocal samples used on the track, I postulated that...

...The "Eeee-ma-hee" (that's what it sounds like!) might be a bit of one of Freddie's vocals from Rhye played backwards, but just sounds... odd... even though it could have sounded cool with a bit of vocal effects and if it had been the *only* excess vocal used.

I was, of course, absolutely wrong and therefore feel like a big doofus. I finally got the Queen album Jazz today (whee!), and when I played the song Mustapha, I felt like a dork. *That's* where the vocal sample came from! I was being pretentious and assumed the sample was from SSOR, but I was wrong, and thus feel a bit silly. So, the sample came from Mustapha, and not from SSOR. And BTW, he's saying "Ibrahim", not "Eeee-ma-hee". :)

OK, time for the icon portion of the post. I felt like making several Madonna avs, but ended up with a bunch (that's a technical term). So, here they are:




And I modified one of my Freddie Mercury icons to be 60x60 pixels so I could use it on a forum. Take a gander...

And the post would not be complete without some 100x100 avs of Queen/Freddie Mercury. :D



Once more, feel free to use any or all of these. No credit required, just enjoy them. :) Sorry that these particular icons aren't all spangly... I'll try to create some spangly-tastic avs for my next post. ;)

Well, I think I'm going to turn in now... getting quite sleepy... *snore* What? Oh yes...

Cheery bye, Scarlett
