      Lelly Garwood yea but it lost that that campy feeling after getting too... mainstream? it was gay at the beginning but by the good mean,.then it's gotten gay in a pop meaning and even i don't understand what i'm saying but you get it guess...

      I never thought it was gay or campish at all. It was just Queen. Then in the early 80's the gay word became more of a label in conversation. Changed the connotation of my favourite ice block "Gaytime". I didn't even know until the early 80's that Freddie was gay or bisexual. Didn't care either. Then AIDs became a worldwide word. Remember this is before computers. We were taught about it in high school. I love the name Queen. Imagine if Brian and Rodger insisted they kept the name Smile?

    The first time I heard this track, I was blown away by the drumming of Roger. He is so underrated as a drummer. He ranks up there with the great ones. Sure he's no Ginger Baker, Neil Peart, John Bonham, and Keith Moon, but damn he's fantastic. Now about the lyrics, Brian really hit the nail on the head with this one. One of his hidden masterpieces with the band. John Deacon is also a fantastic bassist. He really accents the song with his playing and meshing perfectly with Roger. Finally, we get to Freddie's vocals. What more can one person say that hasn't already been said all over the world. I miss hearing his voice with new material every day. He is sadly missed by me, just like all of the past musicians I have listened to over the past 46 years. God Save The Queen......

      Freddie was absolutely correct when he said they would never split ! " Why kill the goose that laid the golden egg " ? These 4 gentleman brought more joy to so many people , spanning over 4 generations , and easily going into 5 , I know my parents had all of their records and quite possibly even 8 tracks , I owned all of their cassettes , records , tapes and CD's , and my children and their children too now own all of their music , either on their phones or their mp3 players or their IPods , and I thoroughly believe that my grand children's children will also be listening to them long after this ol' bird is dead and gone!! As all of us die hard Queen and Freddie fans are probably hoping for as we dance around our houses cleaning , with our grand children following , helping us do " the 10 second tidy " , singing along with the greatest boy band history will never forget!! 💚💚

    One thing I love about Queen is that all four members have their own musical style so you get a nice mix of Roger's hard rock, John's funk, Brian's catchy melodic pieces and Freddie's experimental stuff.
    I love songs from each of the members. While I'd say '39 is my favourite Brian May song, It's Late is a close second.

      I have never heard this played on radio, even rock radio stations. They just play a few of their songs these days. When they were active with Freddie, they got lots of airplay in the UK, so its only fair that the current music artists get their chance to make it big. I hear some decent new rock too, not in Queens class, but still good. But the song is pure class. I love it.

    This song (and the entire "News of the World" album) has such a special place in my choices of favorite songs.
    I would like to point out what Brian May does in his guitar solo. He uses finger-tapping. Eddie Van Halen is widely credited as the first to use this technique in rock music. Van Halen's debut album was release in 1978. "News of the World" was released in 1977.

No doubt I'd heard it back in the day once or twice, but had long forgotten it. Some tunes on 'News of the World' tend to get buried underneath the weight of the megahits that are the first two tracks. Anyway...this song KICKS it.
