Following on from the three previous chart successes from 'The Miracle' album came 'Scandal', a song aimed at the tabloid press. A highlight of its parent album, the song unfortunately failed to generate much airplay, but with help from Queen's UK record company releasing no fewer than six versions of the single, the band's most faithful fans helped it get to a respectable number twenty-five in the national singles charts.

The video was directed once again by the Torpedo Twins, but was a somewhat rushed affair, lacking in the epic scope Queen were now fully accustomed to. Filmed in Pinewood Studies on September 27th 1989, the piece was strictly performance based - the band miming along to the song on a specically built stage designed to look like an enormous newspaper.

The band were never really satisfied with the video, and although fans did not have to wait long to own it on vhs (it was included on 'The Miracle EP' video released in time for Christmas 1989) the song failed to make the tracklisting for 'Greatest Hits II' and its 'Flix II' counterpart. Much to the delight of many a diehard fan, the video was given its dvd premiere, digitally remastered for the 'Greatest Video Hits 2' dvd in 2003.
