Well this is nice. If you’re a Chromecast owner check the offers page of the Home app. The offers are different in every region but I got 90 days of Google Play Music free, and this works even if you had 90 days free before!

Under Pressure Studio Take
A version of Queen and David Bowie’s Under Pressure you might not have heard before.
You can hear some talking in the background. From the title I thought this was made during the recording of the song but comments on this video and another video say it’s from radio interviews. Anyone know?
Here’s a great article on the making of the song.
Though the band sounds lighthearted enough in the studio sessions, the songwriting, May remembers, was fraught with tension. “It was very hard,” he said in 2008, “because you already had four precocious boys and David, who was precocious enough for all of us.” Bowie, says May, “took over the song lyrically” and insisted on presiding over the final mix session, which “didn’t go well,” according to Queen engineer Reinhold Mack. For his part, May has said he would “love to sit down quietly on my own and re-mix it.”
Somebody to Love
As a joke a few days ago I shared an awful cover of a Queen song on Facebook, so in apology I give you Marc Martel singing the beautiful Queen song, “Somebody to Love”.
And as a bonus here’s an amazing rendition of Nessun Dorma. Wow, just wow.
All this found at the same time I find out that Freddie Mercury’s mother, Jer Bulsara has died at the age of 94. RIP.
It's with great sadness that we have to tell you, that freddies wonderful Mother Jer has passed away at the age of 94.

Alanis Morissette Updates ‘Ironic’ Lyrics
What’s the chance I’d come across this after listening to this song earlier today on a Google Music instant mix? You might say.. Nah, you wouldn’t.
RIP Prince
Reports are that Prince has died at the age of 57. Time to resurrect this classic. I love the song, not so much the video..
The soundtrack Prince created for Batman The Movie (1989) is still my favourite soundtrack, followed in quick succession by the Matrix soundtracks..
From that article above, check out Prince on the guitar in this song, WOW.
