Mercury’s Memory Is Rising With New Single

The surviving members of Queen reunited earlier this year to record a new song, “No One But You (Only The Good Die Young)” to top off a compilation album which will span the band’s twenty year career. “Queen Rocks” is due on November 4th from Hollywood Records.

In addition to the new song, seventeen classics such as “We Will Rock You” and “Seven Seas Of Rhye” will be on the LP. “No One But You (Only The Good Die Young)” was written by guitarist Brian May in January and recorded by May, bassist John Deacon, and drummer Roger Taylor, Queen’s remaining members. May and Taylor share vocal responsibilities on the track, in place of the late Freddie Mercury. “No One But You” is a tribute to those who died too soon, like Mercury, who died at the age of 45.

This is the first new song from Queen since the death of Mercury six years ago.
