Apparently, Michael Jackson convinced them to release the song when he heard it. John Deacon wrote the song, which explains the killer baseline!

John Deacon made a freaking Fortune off the credit to writing this song because it went quadruple platinum in America and number one in no time for like 3 months. It was still on the charts for 31 week!! I love this song and for a year you couldn't get away from it in America. They didn't blow it up on the radio or anything. it's just that after three months another couple songs would get really popular for about 3 or 4 weeks, and when they started to lose speed, they would start playing More Of Another One Bites the Dust again. Haha!! Radio stations in America did that from August of 1980 all the way through about May 1981.

John Deacon, Queen's bassist, wrote Another One Bites The Dust. Brian May said in an interview that Freddie actually sang this so hard that his voical chords bled. John wanted a specific vocal. Queen is the only band in history where all 4 members wrote #1 hits. All 4 were musical geniuses! This song was not meant for a single release. But, once Michael Jackson heard this song, he convinced the band to release it as a single. It of course shot up the charts. Another classic Jonh Deacon bass line comes from Under Pressure. This bass line was famously stolen by Vanilla Ice, for his Ice, Ice Baby song. Queen sued and quickly won! Great reaction, thanks!

John Deacon was the Dark Horse of this band and John and Rodger with a Powerhouse at the back of the band with Freddie Mercury and Brian May up front. John may have been quiet but he was an excellent bass player and that Deaky amp that he built is/was amazing. That amplifier could make both of their guitars sound like anything they wanted them to. Even in another one bites the dust when you hear those really weird sounds it's from the guitar players using that Deacon amp. he was an electrical engineer anyway so no surprise that he could build something that incredible. he wrote so many good songs after Freddie Mercury mentored him for a couple of years and I'm really surprised he didn't show up to receive his Rock and Roll Hall of Fame music award or his writers Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Poor John. After Freddie Mercury died he stuck around for about six years but said the band would never ever be the same and it wasn't. John was the business brains of the band from 1978 on and he handled all of the finances and probably still does. Brian and Roger don't talk to him about anything aside from business and of course they got his blessing to tour with Paul Rodgers and Adam Lambert. Bohemian Rhapsody made 1.2 billion dollars at the box office and that doesn't even include what they made from Redbox or Showtime or the DVDs & soundtrack. I think that movie had a soundtrack. they only spent $60,000 to make that movie and they'd grossed so much off of it. I can't remember whether Queen members got paid 10% of the overall sales off of the movie or weather with 20%. good grief even if it was 10% off the movie sales alone each member of the band would have gotten 25 million dollars. I'll have to do some research because I can't remember if it was 10 or 20% they settled on.

I mean queen arguably have a more famous baseline from there epic song under pressure. Stolen at a later date by vanilla ice. By the way after the vid you asked what is “don’t stop me now?” It’s considered the happiest song of all time due to its tempo etc definitely watch the music video for it. Under pressure check out Wembley 86 performance. Freddie interacts with the crowd just before he belts out the hit and you can tell us whether you think the baseline is more famous than another one bites the dust. Big fan from 🇬🇧

My top favorite is “Who Wants to Live Forever” (particularly the live version in Budapest), then “The Show Must Go On” (no live version as Freddie was very sick and close to death when it was recorded in 1991, which is why I find it so powerful), and Somebody To Love in third.

Somebody to Love is my favorite song by Queen & " I WANT IT ALL" is my second-favorite by Queen. . "Seven Seas of Rye" is an old song but still one of my favorites and "now I'm here" is another favorite. "It's late" "Another One Bites the Dust" "One Vision" , "who wants to live forever" and " princes of the universe" both from Highlander.. of course the "we Will Rock You and We Are The Champions". I love one of John Deacon songs that was on night at the Opera "you're my best friend". just something special about that song and Bohemian Rhapsody and Bohemian Rhapsody is just too much fun!

John was the Dark Horse of the band and get come out of nowhere with a number one hit. He also made that special amplifier called the Deaky amp. They used that amplifier with both of the guitars and it could make sounds that were unusual that you can even here in this song and in princes of the universe. If you've never heard "princes-of-the-universe" you must hear that song on video because it's absolutely blow your mind Epic! The Deaky amp makes the guitars sound like a tornado siren at the very beginning of the song and then it goes into the powerful Rock Harmony and it's just absolutely mind-blowing. Some people have heard it and some people haven't but it's another song from the Highlander soundtrack. The use of the Deaky amp in that video is what truly amazing because of the special effects sounds they make and there's no auto-tune or synthesizers.

Another one bites the dust is the first I watched their live and pushed me to search about them....I really loved that I always fell for their song without knowing that these songs were actually by them....and by the same band :-)

Picking a favourite Queen song is too hard. I'm kind of old, so the first mv I ever saw was Bohemian Rhapsody when I was 6. I basically grew up listening to Queen. My favourite tracks are probably Bohemian Rhapsody, Killer Queen, Somebody To Love, We Will Rock You/We Are The Champions (they should always be played together), Fat Bottomed Girls, Bicycle Race, Crazy Little Thing Called Love, Under Pressure (with David Bowie) and It's A Kind Of Magic. Way too hard to pick just one. There's just nobody that even comes close to Freddie.
