Bro. Honestly, audio only vids are probably the best ones to react to, because you’re experiencing the music on its own, w/out someone trying to lead you into their interpretation. YOU need to interpret the music on your own. Just like the rest of us when we put the needle to the record. THAT’S how you truly FEEL the music. It’s not even about the message the artist was was trying to send. It’s about the message YOU received. It’s about what YOU feel when you hear the music, unleashing YOUR imagination when you hear what’s being played and said. You connect the music to parts of your own life, lessons you learned, experiences you had that Correlate to the sounds you hear. Maybe you’re interpretation isn’t what the artist meant to convey, but it’s what you felt when you heard it. THAT’S what makes music SO powerful.

You should’ve done the live version from Milton Keynes Bowl in 1982! The song was paired with “Bicycle Race”, which is why Freddie says “get on your bikes and ride”. WARNING: Bicycle Race video was filmed using 50 hired models to ride bikes in the nude around Wembley Arena. When the bike rental found out, Queen had to pay for new seats. The band was upset that they didn’t get to see it being filmed. Freddie wrote the song, inspired after see the Tour de France come through. Brian May wrote Fat Bottomed Girls.
