Made in Heaven is the fifteenth studio album by British rock band Queen and the final one to feature Freddie Mercury who died in 1991 and John Deacon who left the group after the album's release, released on 6 November 1995. After Mercury's death, Deacon, Roger Taylor and Brian May worked with vocals and piano parts that Mercury recorded before his death, along with newly recorded lyrics by the remaining band members.
Both stages of recording, before and after Mercury's death, were completed at the band's studio in Montreux, Switzerland. The album debuted at #1 in the UK where it went 4x platinum. According to The Guardian, it has sold 20 million copies worldwide.

Years before Freddie Mercury started recording solo material, he created a sound clip of himself messing around on the piano at Musicland Studios in Munich in 1980. Later, for the use of this album, the song was extended to two minutes and 32 seconds. The more classical section, without Mercury's improvisation, was put together by John Deacon.
The melodies from the album are the following:

Words and music by Queen
This is where we are today
People going separate ways
This is the way things are now
In disarray
I read it in the papers
There's death on every page
Oh Lord I thank the Lord above
My life has been saved
Yeah yeah yeah
Here we go
Tellin' lies
Here we go (here we go)
This is the way we are today
oh ho oh ho
We're right back were we started from
People going separate ways
This is the way things are now
In disarray - hey
I read it in the papers
There's death on every page oh
Oh Lord I thank you for my
My life has been saved
My life
My life has been saved
My life
My life
My life has been saved

I'm blind
I don't know what's coming to me
Enjoy it!
