Hronologija singlova Queena

"The Miracle" je singl britanske rock grupe Queen. Pjesma je peti i posljednji singl s istoimenog albuma objavljen 27. novembra 1989. godine. Djelo je svih članova grupe iako su Freddie Mercury (napisao tekst) i John Deacon (komponovao muziku) dali najveći udio u njenom stvaranju.^[1] Nalazi se na strani A dok se na strani B nalazi "Stone Cold Crazy".

Pjesma

U pjesmi se spominju Božije kreacije, velike i male kao što su imena velikih građevina poput Tadž Mahala i Babilonske kule i sve su opisane kao čuda što je ustvari i prijevod ove pjesme sa engleskog jezika. Također se spominju i svjetski poznate osobe kao što su: Kapetan Cook, Jimi Hendrix i dr. Pjesma se zadržala 5 sedmica na UK top-listi singlova gdje je dostigla 21. mjesto.

Video spot

S obzirom da je grupa odustala od turneje zbog Mercuryjevog narušenog zdravlja odlučili su snimiti muzički spot u kojem dječaci glume članove grupe. Brian May je ustvari bio Paul Howard, Johna Deacona je glumio James Currie, Rogera Taylora Adam Gladdish dok je Freddieja Mercuryja na sceni predstavljao tada nepoznati trinaestogodišnji Ross McCall. Tokom video spota Ross McCall se pojavljuje obučen u četiri različite odjevne kombinacije reinkarnirajući Freddievo doba i tadašnji prepoznatljivi stil odijevanja: '70-ih godina (duga kosa i harlekin hula-hopke), ranih 80-ih (Freddie s brkovima, kožna jakna i hlače), sredinom 80-ih (Live Aid odijelo) i Magic Tour 1986. (kultna žuta kožna jakna, bijele hlače i adidas tenisice). Mercury je bio toliko oduševljen njihovom glumom da je predložio da dječaci održe turneju umjesto grupe. Pjesma je objavljena na kompilaciji Greatest Hits II iz 1991. godine. Prema priči objavljenoj 2011. godine u rock magazinu NME, dječak koji je u ovom video spotu glumio Briana Maya Paul Howard je frontmen londonske grupe Silvery.
