[szwagierism]

Moooooore of that JAZZ!

[Maxx61]

A guitar tone that cuts right through your bones.

[fantastischee]

Mooooore mooooore moooooore!

[Klingonmastr]

This song kinda sounds like a Pink Floyd song.

[rdt78]

its true thats roger taylor is request to replace the genesis drummer ??

[xFoxMulderFBI]

all of roger songs are bad ass man fn love his songs like this in love with my car and Tenement Funster is fucking epicness

[JourneyRock92]

Who couldn't love this song? It's so unique and incredible. If only today's music was this creative.

[cisum78]

Unforgettable voice...Thanks Mister Roger! and Happy Birthday Freddie!!

[ajuggalosbtrfly]

2 people didn't get any more jazz

[sandrez1978]

the medley in the end is totally genial :D

[Luivi66]

Roger´s voice is so unbelieveble.... How four so amaising man find each others <3

[DORIOR]

where is freddie in this song?

[widzewlordi]

@DORIOR well Freddie is in 3:18

[MauricioCasteglione]

I LOVE this song !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Korvinski]

Totally awesome is QUEEN. Even from back in the late 60s when they were college buds playing original rock music at frat parties, local pubs & whatnot...in fact, QUEEN is the ONLY rock band that can boast that ALL 4 members are actual college graduates, majoring in music which, explains THE GREATEST ROCK BAND OF ALL TIME. Sorry but, it's true - the Stones, Zeppelin, Boston, Rush - you name 'em - NONE of them can compare to the virtuosos that are QUEEN!! Only the Beatles can MAYBE come close!

[9tome6]

@Korvinski That's a bit narrow minded.. I love Queen but I can accept that there are other bands that are equally good or better :P Beatles and Zeppelin being among them

[chapkoark]

one of the many reasons queen was great is that it had 4 amazing singers. Roger definitely brought an edgier vibe to the band. genius!

[queen365247]

I like the fat bottomed girls part better in this song,but the original is good too.

and I relly like this song.in my opinion this is one of the best queen songs

[david62241]

this is heavy metal

[xmt84]

El podereso riff de este tema, me ha venido a la cabeza sin más.

Es un buen epitafio para un disco que en si también lo es, dentro de la carrera de Queen.

More of That Jazz es mas que una canción ya que contiene lo mejor de Jazz y así mísmo, dicho album contiene lo mejor de la banda hasta la fecha.

Sensacional trabajo de Roger Taylor!!!

[mirokic]

really metal \,,/

[Kalabanano]

AWESINE song

[MitjaShi]

love that little surprise towards the end :)

[timcanfixitnow]

first remix ever?, still the best. love love love.

[tab0978]

great song, but kinder metals are still listen to we will rock you and we are the champions.

[HippieChick1776]

i love the part at the end where it blends all the songs together

[Schon2112]

G R E A T Album!! AWESOME TOUR!!!

[NotATube]

Almost every review I've seen mentioning this song has been negative... I don't know why, I think it's pretty good.

The only thing I really dislike is that clunky, ill-judged medley in the middle. Do a version with that edited out and I'd be happy. :-)

[ReneeNme]

ROLL ME BABYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[TopT432]

Fast version of this is Mettalica - Muster of puppets

[Fakeone1710]

@TopT432 Metallica* Master*

you fucking piece of shit.

[Galomdp]

"Only football gives us thrills. Rock 'n roll just pays the bills"

[jessndcr8on]

this song is cut short from the original recording

[ReneeNme]

@jessndcr8on boomp boomp ta tish boomp. You're right.

[MrMegaFredzeppelin]

Another GREAT album by them!!!!!!!!!

[onthemoveagain]

@MrMegaFredzeppelin

Queen,The Beatles,and Led Zeppelin never made any bad albums.

[DickLodge68]

@onthemoveaga Looking back, I think Queen had both the Beatles and Zep beat. Originality, musical ability, and songwriting.....Queen beats both of them, so I think. Just my opinion. As for making bad albums? Queen - Hot Space.....Led Zep - Coda....The Beatles - Let it be. Not horrific albums - all had their bright spots - but obviously the weakest links. There were many faults and follies; to think otherwise is pretty absurd.

[MinGophers]

@DickLodge68 I almost wouldn't call "Coda" an album. I was released after Bonham's death and pretty much just a release of what they had that they didn't use in the other albums. Like a "here's some of the stuff we have in the closet if you're interested" album.

[DickLodge68]

@MinGophers It was released as an album and still considered by most that Coda was the last Zep album. The same thing happened with Queen's Made in Heaven, which was also released after Mercury's death. Regardless, it was a point made that Queen, Led Zep, and the Beatles never made any bad albums...and I disagree. Then again, it's all a matter of opinion isn't it?

[CYCOfilms]

@DickLodge68 I`d have to disagree with you on let it be. I`d say the worst beatles albums were...well, pretty much everything from the beatles before rubber soul sucked, I`d say, aside from yesterday and a 2 or 3 Lennon tunes. Just my personal opinion, of course, but I find Let It Be to be far better than the rather dislikeable early beatles.

[DickLodge68]

@CYCOfilms Well, you are entitled to your opinion but keep in mind I've got a few years on you.. so perspectives are different. I'm not a huge fan of the "old" Beatles...but certainly wouldn't say it "sucked" Look at the other bands of the time. Don't restrict it to something "lame"...they were a good band that only got better. And IMHO McCartney was better than Lennon. But that's why we all have opinions. And George wrote some of the best songs! That was then, when they were fab!

[martinbarnes8]

@DickLodge68

I'd call Yellow Submarine the bad Beatles album.

[DickLodge68]

@martinbarnes8 Yeah, I'd agree with you but it was a soundtrack album for the movie. At least it did have "Hey Bulldog"!

[martinbarnes8]

@DickLodge68

True. 'Hey Bulldog' is one of my favourite Beatles songs.

[CBurton]

@onthemoveagain hahaha.

[coolsquirrels]

@onthemoveagain Hot Space was pretty bad

[9tome6]

@coolsquirrels Not really. It was a huge departure for Queen, yes, but most of the songs are good. I'd say all of Brian and Roger's songs on there are great, Back Chat is pretty good too. Album versions of Staying Power and Body Language are pretty lousy but in live renditions are much more enjoyable. Under Pressure doesn't count, it was released earlier.

Nonetheless, it is interesting to wonder which direction their music would have gone in had Paul Prenter not interfered. :L

[coolsquirrels]

@9tome6 Yea I saw the documentary and they talked about how Paul Prenter was a very bad influence on Freddie and the band. I guess we'll never know unfortunately

[eightwasntenuff]

@9tome6 I agree and Freddie was not Freddie during Hot Space and Brian, Roger and John were pissed at him. Apparently this topic is going to be in the new flick about Freddie/Queen but that's another can of jam altogether! Btw, where's the last beat on this song?

[TheJumpyPopcorn]

@eightwasntenuff =P Brian, Roger and John were pissed at him? =P It's because Freddie was acting strange and was turning into a gay club lover, he was different and his bandmates were mad at him cos he wanted Queen to sound like a band that should be played at discos and such things, am I right?

[eightwasntenuff]

@TheJumpyPopcorn I'd say so. Roger and Brian talk about it in The Days of Our Lives doc, part 5 I think.

[TheJumpyPopcorn]

@9tome6 Paul Prenter was a big asshole, he destroyed Freddie! Freddie was being manipulated by that nosy idiot. Somebody should have done something!

[DickLodge68]

@9tome6 Come on now! I bought this the day it was released and was so disappointed.....as were 90% of Queen fans, I'd say. Back Chat? Oh man! How about Put out the Fire...which was the only song I liked on it when I was 14. And Las Palablas is a beautiful song. Staying Power is great live but the rest of it is horrible! Ask any Queen fan what was the worst and most will easily say Hot Space. Yes, Under Pressure doesn't count.

[pax2001]

@onthemoveagain Jacko and Elvis too



[PolMcCartney]

@onthemoveagain

actually, i don't really like flash gordon (not sure if to consider it an album) and hot space. but the 70s' had a pretty awesome series of classics, yes

it's like as soon as they started abandoning hard rock and approached the electronic scene, they started losing their popularity

[TheJumpyPopcorn]

@PolMcCartney hahaha I don't agree, when Queen released The Game in 1980 or even before that time with News of the world in '77 or Jazz in '78, they lost many many fans who didn't see the same Queen from ANATO, ADATR and their first albuns, the truth is that they lost a lot of fans when they turned more pop but they also gained millions of fans, and there was no prejudice, there was profit. They sold out everywhere and topped the charts everywhere in the 80's

[DickLodge68]

@PolMcCartney Well Flash Gordon was a soundtrack album, so that's kinda iffy anyway. Funny, as long as Queen stated "no synthesizers" for years....I believe their best album The Game was the first to use synthesizers. And that's the album that simply sent them through the roof popularly and commercially.

[jeffrooster]

I`ve liked this album since December of 1978, It was a christmas gift.

[aliciahostclub]

Ooooohhhhhh~ no moreee of that jaazz!

[therealbasskiller]

absolute album ever

[carooomargheee]

I like this song. People usually say that this song sucks...

[heartflowergirl]

@carooomargheee Yeah, it's a pity that many people don't like this song. But for me, this song has something special!

[singningwongho]

what beat is this? is it 5/4?

[YardenGruman]

@singningwongho

it's actually 4/4

[adarov]

roger is playing all instruments and sing all voices here :)

[kellyfreas]

@adarov Brian plays the riff as ai know,but i might be wrong.

[adarov]

@kellyfreas

nope, its roger. :)

[DickLodge68]

@adarov Believe what you want to....Taylor played "most" of this song. But that was May that played the E string shuffle and some other riffs. It's apparent as Murray opposed to Smith. If you can't hear that difference, I can't help you. This was a Queen album, not "Fun in Space".

[silkysuebee]

For all those who thought Queen wasn't hard and heavy metal at all .... I give you this....LOL!!!

[jelsomino]

"Only football gives us thrills

Rock-n-Roll just pays the bills"

how true

[vitamincity]

just got this album today

[TheBlackQueen1974]

The Roger scream! I love it! Roger is beast!

[AdcaVideo]

great sound, really impressive: WOW!

[harlekin0263]

voll richtig! voll echt! Voll genial!

[nifur1]

Wspaniały utwór choć nie śpiewa Fredek.

[LexingtonWells]

I think this album was like, the defining moment where they officially started to mess around with different styles... this band could write anything!

[Maxesar]

Nice end.

[saucersauce]

I always thought this song would've fit in well on the Sheer Heart Attack album.

[hardstuff72]

CD skipping sample? 1978? They're album must have been on Laserdisc or something (or else they were follwing new electronic technology closely)

[silkysuebee]

@hardstuff72

Queen was cutting edge and led the way in so many many ways!

[saintsnbraves1]

Great song!

[porock21gr]

i don't really like metal music,but if roger was the lead singer of any metal band he would have become a legend!

[IKeeperOfThe7Keys]

@porock21gr I think he already IS a legend :)

[porock21gr]

Yes,I didn't set it right..I mean a legend as a vocalist,as a lead singer.He's got the perfect "metal" voice.

However,I can't imagine Queen without his backing vocals!!Of course he has also done some lead vocals,in this band and in other projects,but it's not what he is well-known for.

[IKeeperOfThe7Keys]

@porock21gr  Yes, that's right. I do understand what you mean and admit..

[zambrocca]

what to notice in this song is the main presence of Roger also in chorus....his voice is always in the first line.

[MrPekingCat]

Their last 'classic' album.

[DontStopMeNow95]

Yes, that's true, but I think that 'Breaktru' and 'Friends Will Be Friends' are really 'Queenclassics' too.

[JonnyInfinite]

@MrPekingCat sod off: innuendo and the works are classics

[mikemoair]

this is my favorite queen song, just has that ax murder your parents sound to it, hard rock not heavey metal crap

[FREDDIEMERCURYHOT79]

I really love this song. Roger is a very good singer not to mention a bad ass drummer.....

[MrPekingCat]

An underrated singer at that!

[FREDDIEMERCURYHOT79]

you go Roger, love ya babe!!!

[heartflowergirl]

@FREDDIEMERCURYHOT79 I think he is the most handsome drummer! :D

[aliciahostclub]

@heartflowergirl so true *-*

[slowvision]

i have the lp ...*makes proud face

[xebio6]

I love this, medley included. Brian sounds great on this album

[NotoriousNightOwl]

Love this song. Well, right up until the part where the medley kicks in. Still cool, though. The riffing reminds me of E1M1off the Doom soundtrack, lol.

[CanadianGirlRock]

Listen to those riffs !!!!!!!!!!!!

[Tray137]

Thanks for posting, I have been looking for this for years, had it on 8 track and lost it. Thought it was I like Jazz. Thanks again, it's 1978 again if only in my head.

[europis555]

Roger Taylor lead vocals is magnific!!!!!!

Great singer Roger Taylor!!!!!

[therealelemental]

Love Queen

Love Roger Taylor

Love This Song

Queen live forever

[NotoriousNightOwl]

Seriously, this was a good song until it was completely ruined by the clips near the end.

[tommyelectric2003]

What songs have you composed lately so we can compare your arrangements to this one?

[Whatevery1Nose]

I've always felt this their best album, with this song as the best on it followed by Mustapha. Awesome vocals and the notes are in place.

[Atza56]

love that medley like bit in the end with parts from different songs

[SimonDolan]

Roger Taylor was definately the most underrated one in Queen - a lot of people thought more of Mercury/May from a distance. He was far more than a drummer and a good songwriter, although this isn`t a classic - the bit at 3:34-3:50 is a bit naff to me but maybe it was cool in 1978.

[ReneeNme]

Taylor, aside from being one badass drummer, is one of the driving sources behind Queen's audio trickery.

[1FineYoungCannibal]

Roger Taylor has written some classics but for the most part he wasn't a great lyricist.

[bamb02us]

F***kin great song,,thanx!!!

:{dem1 tru-x 0v Elude Fearra:}

[Queen4theWind]

The bit at the end is really weird O.o

[PASJONAT51]

Roger is great singer, Too bad he was not singing more often :(

[centuryrox]

@PASJONAT51 I totally agree with you. However, it's tough to have anyone else sing when one of the best singers in rock and roll history fronts the band!

[heartflowergirl]

@PASJONAT51 Yeah, in the 80's he didn't sing anymore, if I am right... His voice is very powerful is this song!

[della8rocks]

@PASJONAT51  Roger always seems to write some rockin' songs

[shakeshaftthomas]

@PASJONAT51 solo albums?

[OfekTheQueenFan2]

@PASJONAT51 actually, he's sung quiet a lot of Queen's songs..

[zachtblauw]

great song, nice pics at the end, thanks

[TuvaKisEn]

Luv it

[FreddieTheOnlyOne]

Awesome, like all the Queen's song:) lol

[CaptainHumbug]

Truly an unforgettable band.

[IKeeperOfThe7Keys]

luv this song!!!
