When Is Brian going to relise that Tie your mother down will never be a hit why do Queen Keep sticking it on singles like no 1 but u it wasnt a hit in 76 why will it be now
Maybe it's because Brian wrote the song, and he's desparate to make it into a succesful single?
I'm sure someone has better statistics than I do, but I think the "Brian" singles haven't on average been as succesful as the other ones...
Tie Your Mother Down should of been a no.1 hit
its in my top 10 and it makes you go wild, and the reaction Brian gets from the crowed in concerts from this song is amazing...
I no everyone in hyde park was jumping and clapping to this song, its just so great!
Its one of my favourites.
Its a real rocker of a song, and really gets the crowds going. Also, messing around on guitar its a great one to play too ... the solos a bit tough though !
I think Tie Your Mother Down would've been a bigger hit if it had been switched with Long Away and released in the US...But it's a classic Queen song - even if it didn't get a great chart spot. It's one of the definitive Queen rock songs (and almost nothing beats Roger exploding off his drum stool in the video!) so it makes sense that they'd keep it in the set or on singles...
This song IS a hit......one of the most recognized Queen songs....... maybe it didn't beat out Barbara Streisand then or Britney now but it's not supposed to.....afterall it's a ROCK song and great Rock songs never die............................and way more of a hit than songs they did that charted better and died off like Body Language....
You think it did bad on the US charts ?
Tie you mother down Did better on the US charts in the top 50 but most of Spears singles did not even chart on the billboard hot 100!
