Editorial perspective

Machines (Or Back To Humans) occupies position 5 in the identified The Works programme. It follows Man On The Prowl. The next work is I Want To Break Free. Read that placement alongside the album perspective: Queen and Mack produced The Works. Official member profiles identify Radio Ga Ga with Roger Taylor and I Want to Break Free with John Deacon. Our editorial route uses those different writing voices as entrances into the complete record. The videos can illuminate an individual song, but they are external references rather than archive-owned footage. Returning from a song to the track list also reveals the shorter closing Is This the World We Created...? in its album context.

The timing belongs to Machines (Or Back To Humans) - Remastered 2011, not to every performance of this work.
