The Show Must Go On - Queen - MP3 instrumental karaoke

Queen champion resilience and strength in the face of pain, heartache and adversity on their 1991 rock epic "The Show Must Go On," which was featured as the final track of their 14th studio album Innuendo (1991). The track, which pays homage to the celebrated theatricality of Freddie Mercury and Queen, was written as a collaboration between Queen guitarist Brian May and Freddie Mercury while the band's adored lead singer was tragically dying due to AIDS-related complications. Innuendo would become Freddie Mercury's last album with Queen, although in 1995 posthumous album Made in Heaven was released. This song re-entered the UK charts following Freddie Mercury's death in November 1991 and reached Number 16. "The Show Must Go On" really hits its stride in the gut-wrenching chorus: "The show must go on / The show must go on, yeah / Inside my heart is breaking / My makeup may be flaking / But my smile, still, stays on."
