In the early 1980s, Freddie Mercury was eager to step outside of Queen fame. Meanwhile, Michael Jackson had just shattered records with Thriller. Both legends admired each other’s work and decided a collaboration was inevitable. They recorded three tracks, “Victory,” “State of Shock,” and “There Must Be More to Life Than This,” together at Jackson’s home studio in Encino, California.

Mercury ended up abandoning the sessions, and the songs remained incomplete.

In addition to that, Jackson preferred a structured studio atmosphere, while Mercury thrived in spontaneity.

Victory itself never officially surfaced, though versions have leaked online, while Mercury’s solo take on “There Must Be More to Life Than This” appeared on Mr. Bad Guy in 1985.

Despite the failed sessions, the duets are a fascinating glimpse into what would have been a historic collaboration.
