It's a brilliant song but I am outraged and very displeased with the chart place that it got in the U.S, what was it like 81 or summit? Awful, absolutley awful!

Yes I agree, I do like the studio version also, but the live one is better and also ends properley too, instead of fading out Freddie's lovely la la la la laaaaa bits.
It's always amazing to me personally that people never get what FM says in that song, its all about having a "good time", mainly about the gay bar scene at the time and FM even goes so far as to wear a "Mineshaft" t-shirt in the video...he certainly took a chance back in the day and he was way ahead of his time in that respect anyway. But, these facts seem to be overlooked by most people. Amazing!
Those that knew him including a journalist friend of mine would agree FM liked to be in-your-face and loved to shock people.
"Gonna make a supersonic man out of you..."
Go Freddie! LOL!!! Got to love him!
Kriz ;o)
