Perhaps the most under-rated Queen song, and a great video to boot. I loved every phase of Queen and Freddie, but this is my favorite way to remember him- so active- still full of energy but without the frenetic edge of the first albums- he knows at this point in time he he one of the most loved performers, and he lives up to the love we give Queen.
Damn it I miss this guy. He and the rest of Queen gave us a great example of how to be good despite being famous. Damn I miss him.
The question is not why did Freddie pass away, but rather, how the hell did hen manage not to spontaneously combust for 4 decades? The man was nuclear fusion personified! Queen was a joint venture of 4 uber geniuses, but Roger's backing voice was erotic at worst, and Brian's guitar was PhD level, even before he got his doctorate.
Most baroque physicists studied music- Brian is a true Renaissance man, and what about Freddie? well, honestly, if you have to ask.....
I love Roger's voice on this one... but I wonder, did he multi-track his voice, or was the pitch changed automatically, like an harmonizer or something? It sounds really low at some points, but I heard he could sing pretty low, so... not sure.
@Canaveral305 I'm no sure although Roger can go low but well it can sometimes be alittle uncomfortable for him because he's a countertenor. He said the end part of under pressure us to be difficult live because it was a bit low for him and he couldn't put any power on.
i always get a Queen song in my head and its all beating with twist and shout with beatles and that is not fun. I cant top singing them until i play them. And now i love this song and my parents were like:
Motoko97.....Try turning them on to Love Of My Life, Nevermore, Lily Of The Valley, Barcelona, A Kind Of Magic, or Save Me.....And they'll be telling you to turn it Up!
Or just let them see a video of Freddie doing his magic. Maybe they'll be hooked, like me, since I saw Queen Rock Montreal 1 yr ago, & I'm 59!! Now I'm totally addicted & obsessed w/ Queen!
Let them see Freddie in action! They'll love him, like me!
All one has to do is see Freddie, rather Experience Freddie, and there's no going back! He defined what music can be......Passion, energy, life, magic!
Brian can make that guitar sound almost as majestic as Freddie's gorgeous voice.....Try Bijou....
Freddie Mercury...To say this man was amazing, awesome, beautiful, fantastic, tremendous, outrageous, wonderful, would be a gross understatement at best!
The best version of Action This Day, Sheer Heart Attack, Dragon Attack, theHero, Get Down Make Love, Back Chat, Staying Power is in Queen On Fire Live at the Bowl dvd! I also think this is best Queen DVD; Queen Montreal HDtv best too!
this is my 2nd favorite song from Hot Space. First one is Song For Lennon ..... don't care TOO much for the rest of the album, it's definitely is a weaker one compared to some of the earlier albums
najlepszy zespół świata! :)
LOVE QUEEN!

they're both quite different. early Queen is fantastic, and i'm also a fan ofther later, pop-style music.
but yes, it is rather underrated.
