Editorial perspective
It's A Beautiful Day occupies position 1 in the identified Made in Heaven programme. It opens this programme. The next work is Made In Heaven. Read that placement alongside the album perspective: The official chronology describes Brian May, Roger Taylor and John Deacon completing material after Freddie Mercury's death. The album therefore calls for particular care with recording dates and editions. Our editorial route keeps the listed reprise, Yeah and Untitled visible rather than quietly discarding them because they do not resemble a conventional song. The timings belong to the identified digital edition. They should not be used to invent a duration for an abstract musical work or for every physical pressing.
The timing belongs to It's A Beautiful Day - Remastered 2011, not to every performance of this work.
