Released as a double A side with Bohemian Rhapsody not long after Freddie’s death and was a Christmas number one.
Not wanting to sound morbid on this fine Saturday morning, these are the two songs I have requested my family play at my funeral in, hopefully, sixty years time. Close to ten minutes of fabulous Queen should give them plenty of time for quiet reflection.
Or they could catch up with some texting ‘n stuff.
Haw, JW.
I refuse to believe that a grieving nation will allow you to be laid to rest in 2070, or thereby, to the unremarkable discords of some long-forgotten nonentities.
Bear in mind that King William IV is going to be Chief Mourner and that your corpse will have been lying in state in Westminster Abbey for a week, guarded by members of Scotland’s World Cup winning teams from 2026, 2030, 2038, 2050 and 2066, to allow the country to file past you and pay their respects. I reckon that you will rate a funeral oratorio from the winner of ‘X Factor 2069’ at the very least.
Me, I’m getting burned to a decent song
Top of the morning to you, John. And here was me thinking Wagner’s Ring cycle would have been your “cheerio” to the world.
As you have omitted a few World Cup years in your Nostradamus prediction of my impending death, I take it World Wars 3, 4 and 5 interrupted the tournaments.
Boadicea's Chariot 
Oooooh yes, love it. Morning Mr Zen.
Great stuff, Zen
