The first tag is the song title, a lesser known Queen track, actually sung by Brian May instead of Freddie. The subject matter made for an easy story bit, and I couldn’t resist possibly exposing everyone to a cool deep cut off Queen’s ‘News of the World’ album.
Props for going for the deep cut on any Queen album, wherein many treasures have been discovered by me. I think you do the song a great service here – as it’s recorded, it is (to me, anyway) a contrast of pensive lyrics over excellent piano pop. Read the lyrics by themselves, however, and it reads like and Irish dirge. Well done, amigo.
Cool, I felt the despair and knew he walked towards death. I’ll have to check out the song, I’m a HUGE Queens fan but I don’t think I’ve ever heard this one.
