"No-One But You (Only the Good Die Young)" is the final single recorded by the British rock band Queen. Recorded and released in 1997, six years after the death of lead singer Freddie Mercury, it is the only Queen recording to feature a three-piece lineup: guitarist Brian May (who wrote the song), drummer Roger Taylor, and bassist John Deacon.[nb 1][3] May and Taylor share lead vocals. The song was released on the album Queen Rocks and it was also released as a double a-side single with "Tie Your Mother Down". It was later included on the compilation album Greatest Hits III.
This song was also the last recording to feature Deacon, who subsequently retired from public life,[4] the last original Queen song to reach the Top 40 of some European countries[nb 2] and last original release from the band until 2014's Queen Forever.
