Then it's a Queen song then. Brian May sang a couple of Queen songs with Freddy playing the piano. The lack of Freddy doesn't = not Queen.

I'd say the fact that Brian wrote it as a solo project (his words), recorded it as a solo project (his words) and only put it out under Queen (with re-recorded vocals so Roger had a verse) when they wanted an unreleased track for Rocks, vol 1 (His words) would certainly be a more compelling argument than lack of Freddie.

Note I didn't say "The Loser in the End" wasn't Queen.

Or "Sleeping on the Sidewalk."

Or "Someday One Day."

Or "All Dead, All Dead." Though the last two have backing vocals by Mercury.

Retroactively slapping the name "Queen" on something, however, does not make it Queen.

I actually knew all that, still it was realesed queen. Beyond the technicality Roger changed some lyrics in the chorus (flying too close to the sun bit) and changed it from being about princess dianna to being more broad. Well didn't change it as much as told brian it owuld be better that way and then Brian re-wrote it parts taking out the Dianna refferences.

So def a Queen song for my money.
