It is so rare to have this meeting of talent that culminates in timeless music like this. In my opinion only about four or five other bands have ever reached that pinnacle. We are blessed, as you say. Freddie especially had such an enigmatic personality and there was no one like him before and never will be another again. His inspiration was a kind of magic !

    The title track to the final album Queen toured to support. (Freddie got his diagnosis after this.)
    Freddie stepped back a bit on the songwriting this time around. He only has one solo writing credit on the album, the exquisite "Princes of the Universe". But Roger Taylor had been getting more of his songs made into singles (such as "Radio Gaga" on the last album) and he steps in well again here.
    (Brian May's big contribution was "Who Wants to Live Forever", which I'm surprised you don't seem to have hit yet. Also of note, "One Vision".)

    Her name was Monserrat Caballé. She was a highly regarded Spanish Opera Soprano and she was Freddie's favorite singer in the world. They became very close and he used to call her Montsy.
    A Kind of Magic” was written by the band’s drummer, Roger Taylor, for the film Highlander. The phrase “a kind of magic” is used in Highlander by Connor MacLeod (Christopher Lambert) as a description of his immortality.
    Roger Taylor liked the phrase so much that he used it as inspiration for the song. There are references to the film in the lyrics: “one prize, one goal”; “no mortal man”; and “there can be only one”. The single’s cover art features an image of Clancy Brown in character as the film’s villain, The Kurgan.
    Roger Taylor wrote the melody and chords for the version that appeared in the film, which Brian May described as “quite lugubrious and heavy”. But, while Roger was on holiday, Freddie, who had a different idea about the song, composed a new bass line, added instrumental breaks, and changed the song’s order to make it more chart-friendly. Freddie and David Richards produced this new mix.
    Roger was reportedly very annoyed that Freddie had almost completely rewritten the song behind his back (reportedly whilst he was on holiday, so perhaps that explains why the song was still credited only to Taylor. Roger's version is at the end of the film but it is Freddie's version is on the album and in the video.
    Notable in this music video is that Brian May did not use his famous Red Special guitar in the music video, but instead a 1984 copy. The music video was Filmed in the disused Playhouse Theatre in London’s Northumberland Avenue at Charing Cross, the video was Queen’s first to include animation since Save Me, with computer graphics bringing the characters from the cover of the new album to dazzling life as, among other things, the band’s backing singers.
    The theatre was once used by the BBC to record programming for radio, and this was the inspiration for the video itself - Freddie is the magician who returns to the abandoned theatre where he was once a star and turns three down-and-out squatters (Brian, Roger, and John) into his band. The shoot itself was somewhat less magical - the theatre lacked central heating and was very cold, much to the discomfort of the band and the crew.
    I personally prefer the live version of "It's A Kind Of Magic". I love Queen's live version from Wembley in 1987 - ruclips.net/video/c2_xWTSyCuU/видео.html

    Jay is right on the ball today. Freddie is indeed telling the story of "The Highlander" and there are pointers towards dialogue from the movie. It's a kinda magic is mentioned when Connor saves the child Rachel during WW2, and of course the message throughout the move is "there can be only one". Great soundtrack, great reaction, now go see the movie, the story is "timeless" and the scenery in Scotland is absolutely stunning!

    A previous comment mentioned white queen live at odeon 1975. 100%.agree! That performance will blow your minds. Also, i have to admit, im one of the viewers who has been waiting for you guys to do live aid. I realize evéy channel does it, but if you haven't seen it, really, honestly, it is a must. As is anything live, by queen. Imo just about all of their stuff is better live. How many bands can say that? Noticed, one, surprising negative comment. Im not sure ive seen this channel get one, at least like the one i saw. Anyway, my point, you two are wonderfully diverse in the music you choose. Even if it turns out to be something isnt in someones taste, so what? You choices, which im sure are views recommendations, are brodening my library too. Im 56, i heard a lot, but nor everything. And its nice not to hear a hit everone knows. But the critic is wrong anout this song. Maybe not one of the biggies, its well known. And on their set list, frequently. ....but, live aid. Please 🙏. Keep doing what youre doing. Cant wait to see 1 million subscribers! 🙂

    Queen’s ‘A Kind Of Magic’: Queen drummer Roger Taylor once paid tribute to Freddie Mercury’s “terrifically fertile brain” - and the singer-songwriter’s powers of imagination were sparklingly evident in the way in which he helped turn “A Kind of Magic” from what Taylor called “a filmic” tune for the 1986 fantasy movie Highlander into a “dance-orientated” hit single. A Kind of Magic was Queen’s first album after their triumphant performance in 1985’s Live Aid concert, and it had a strong presence in Highlander, with six tracks from the record appearing in the film directed by Australian Russell Mulcahy.

    This song was originally written for the 1986 movie 'Highlander'. Queen wrote a total of six songs for the movie. There was supposed to be an official soundtrack for 'Highlander', but it never happened. Queen took the songs they had written, and created the album 'A Kind of Magic'. Other songs from this album you may want to check out include "One Vision", "Who Wants to Live Forever", and "Princes of the Universe". "Princes of the Universe" was later used for the theme of the Highlander TV show, and has become the unofficial theme for the series.
