And I don't want any of those explicits either ok. None of that 'FUUUUCK it was great' - none of that. Ok. Ok we gonna do one. This is actually something that we probably won't put on the DVD so this is for you. This is like a bonus track. Ok.
And it goes like this:
 
(4' 51")
Under Pressure non è stata inclusa nel CD / DVD. Non sappiamo se per motivi di copyright (il brano è accreditato ai Queen, ma anche a David Bowie) o se per ragioni d'opportunità, visto che forse questo risulta essere uno dei brani meno provati dai Queen + Paul Rodgers dal vivo. Forse uno dei meno riusciti.
Roger: Hi everybody. I think we are gonna have a great night tonight. So I just come out here to bring you down. This... this is actually a song written for Nelson Mandela. It's about...about something that does effect everybody: you, me, us, everybody, that is HIV-Aids Virus. You know we do have a particular cause to be interested in. This is called 'Say It's Not True'.
 
(4' 47")

Roger: Thank you. Thanks very much. You know the condoms are the fashion - anybody got me? Good. Ok. This is where I tell you that he is actually wearing normally 2 but actually 3 tonight. at the moment... This guy has just got the one on. This is from Brooklyn, USA: Danny Miranda. From Chicago, USA: Jamie Moses. Up here we got the man on the keyboard, the wizard: Spike Edney! And over here this is my best friend, Brian May.

Brian: You don't expect comedy from me, do you? You won't get it. Ok you know I have to say something, I got a very strange thinking about time sitting here up amongst all of you. I am in a very privileged position to be sitting where I am. I can hardly believe it - it is like you have to be pitching myself. It was almost 19 years ago when Queen last toured the boards up here in Sheffield. In someways it seems like it was yesterday, someways it is a very long time. I look around and I see a lot of wonderful friendly faces. Thank you all for being here. The amazing thing is... the amazing thing is some of you I do know and some of you guys are looking kinda familiar but actually you know you were probably not or even just born when this last happened... Welcome to you all, we love ya! Which brings me to the theme of this song which I'd like to sing for you and I would like you to sign with me if you offer - you wanna sing? Ok I just gonna tell you: This song is about time as well. It is about a man who goes of in a silver space-ship to discover new lands - which he manages to do, but when he comes back, he feels like he is only a year older but to people back on earth he is a hundred years older and ah - you wanna sing? It goes like this...

*Il confronto è stato fatto con un bootleg inerente il concerto in questione. Le differenze rispetto al CD sono minime, e riguardano più che altro le pause tra un brano e l'altro, eccezion fatta per qualche discorso troncato (o modificato..) in fase di missaggio in studio. L'unico vero ritocco degno di nota riguarda la "correzione" che riguarda "These Are The Days Of Our Lives" e il testo sbagliato da Taylor. La durata dei brani (e i tagli effettuati alle tracce) son riferiti ovviamente al bootleg. Nei casi di differenze minime, si può tranquillamente dire che i tagli non siano stati apportati.
