SUMMARY: RUNNING TIME: 4:03 Min.
This tune recorded by Queen is among the background songs heard during the 1986 Highlander film. “Friends Will Be Friends” appears on both A Kind of Magic’s original 1986 release and its 1991 re-issuing.
REVIEW:
It’s another solid Queen hit from the Highlander film, even if it isn’t remarkable. Smartly, it’s utilized in the background in one scene vs. a more high-profile placement in the movie. If anything, Freddie Mercury’s endearing vocals still make this tune worth four minutes of your time.
BRIAN’S ODD MOON RATING: 6½ Stars
Note: There’s a digitally-remastered rendition of this song also available on Queen’s 2002 Platinum Collection.
