I forgot to update the comments for this last year. It then became a habit, and then my New Year's Resolution, and then I just got bored with putting it off.

CONENTS:
1. Let's Turn It On (Demo Mix) 1:44
Original by Freddie from Bad Guy.
Remix by Dan Corson.
I believe Mr. Corson actually composed some music, and mixed the "vocal mix" off the 2000 Box Set on top. Hooray for talent! Hopefully he'll finish this sometime!

2. You Take my Life (Demo Mix) 0:29
Original sources are all Queen samples from various channels. Guess them all and win a prize!
Remix by Niek Lucassen.
This actually fooled me (and ruled me) the first time I heard it -- I thought it was a "lost demo"!!

3. State of Shock (King vs Queen Mix) 4:43
Original by the King of Pop -- Royal Crown Cola. It's got less sodium!
Remix by Tim Goosen.
Again, Freddie's amazing impressions of pop icons (including himself) show how versatile of a vocalist he was. "Hee Heee Hee" indeed!

4. Bulsara 5:53
Original by, well, Mr. Wenzel, actually. Despite what you (and I initially) might think, there's very little Freddie in here at all.
(Re?)mix by Juergen Wenzel.
This was Juergen's tribute to Farookh.

5. Play the Game (Orchestral Mix) 3:48
Original by Queen from "The Game", and an orchestral version from the album "The Queen Collection (played by the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra)". It don't sound like tha bloke Phillip been tootlin wae at all -- proper violins n cellas n such, innit?
Remix by Lord Fickle.
This is beatiful and epic, and must have been a pain to synch up.

6. A Beautiful Day In Heaven (Revisited) 4:53
Original by Queen and Freddie from, well, quite a few sources really. Again, guess them all and win a prize!
Remix by Louise Bell.
This is good and mellow, and is great 'creme filling' in a Fickle Oreo.

7. I Was Born to Love You (Fickle Mix) 7:14
Original by Freddie on Bad Guy, but then Queen reassembled it for their Made In Heaven, and Fickle's gone and messed with it again!
Remix by Lord Fickle.
You may ask yourself, "Lady Peinforte" (for that IS your pet name for yourself, try to deny it), "where did this Fickle get an instrumental Queen version of this song?" The answer may surprise you. What're you looking at, I'm not going to open up Google for you.

8. The Freddie Mercury Spirit 11:56
This is another "mystery" track, where I will ask you to guess its contents. You may call me lazy, if you like, I can take it (sobs)!
Remix by Sébastien Bédé.
Actually I'll give you a hint. Add up the digits in the running time of this track, and you'll get the "unofficial" name of one of the tracks featured in this mix!

9. We Are The Champions (Orchestral Mix) 3:16
Original by Queen from "News of the World", and again Phil's Harmonica providing the orchestra.
Remix by Lord Fickle.
I think this one may have been harder to put together than "Game," so Fickle's outdone himself! Hey, the last 5 tracks have formed a Double-Decker-Fickle-Pickle-Oreo Sandwich!
