| Queen – The Millionaire Waltz Lyrics

Yes, well sandwich master is correct. It is about John Reid, who after leaving Queen became Elton John's manager, and, well, husband, for a while. But then Elton found that weird David Furnish guy. This song is so great, like March Of The Black Queen as TeoTorriatte said. I absolutely adore the piano waltz. It's pure genius, and it sounds so great how it sounds all waltzy, get sad and slow, then becomes a heavy rock song, then finally turns back into the brilliant waltz (Bring on the charge of the love brigade...). A great song by the best band ever. |

ahh, amy darling, you make me laugh. 39 children, thats a good one, you're cross prmoting for other queen songs in this article ;_). He actually has 6, but i suppose 39's close enough. And, yes, all your dirty suspicions are right, it's pretyy obvious what this song is about. It even explains it on wikipedia! Lol. |

I just listened to this song literally 20 seconds ago, it just finished then. And its great. I'd never listened to Jealousy, and I'm a huge fan of Queen, I know almopst all their songs, no joke. This one really is an underrated gem. Jazz is a great album, not as good as Queen II or A Night At The Opera, but still really great, with it's fair of share of hits too. A great album, great song and the GREATEST BAND EVER!
(Oh, and as you've all said, Freddie Mercury was such a brilliant songwriter and pianist. If onyl everyone who wrote songs these days could be just as good as him) |

| Queen – Death on Two Legs (Dedicated to...) Lyrics
| 18 years ago

|
Death On Two Legs is about Norman Sheffield, Queen's former manager who cheated and schemed just to get their money. Once he had what he wanted he ran off and hid from Freddie. Freddie was so damn angry about it he wrote this. When they sung it live, he always re dedicated it to "A real mother-f***er of a gentlemen. As for theMelancholywlarus, you are the moron. Freddie Mercury was bisexual, not that it matters one bit. The only thing that matters is he was the best songwriter ever, and the way he wrote this song and used childishly cruel metaphors to describe Sheffield, is absolute proof of that. QUEEN FOREVER. |

there is a kazoo in there, and when Freddie and Roger are using their voices, they are simlating the sound of a kazoo. I saw it on a song analysis movie of this song. And when you hear the tap dancing bit that's Freddie tapping on the tabletop with Metal Thimbles. |

Yes, this song is brilliant. The waltzy piano introduction is absolue genius, only Freddie could have wrote a score that good. Its is one of my favourite pieces to play on piano, along with Seven Seas of Rhye, Nevermore and Jesus. GO QUEEN! |

a kazoo is a little thingy. it's sort of just a novelty instrument, you blow into it and it makes that funny noise you hear in the musical part that starts at the 00.51 point of this song. Look it up here: http://www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kazoo |

This is such a brilliant song. I can play it on piano, not meaning to brag, just thought I'd share that because it's such a beautiful song to listen to and to play. Queen are so brilliant, I agree with Pulp FIction, 39 is also great. And yes, it is a shame that Queen's early songs weren't as well known, because their earlier ones are the ones I've found to be better (The Fairy Feller's Master-Stroke, Flick of The Wrist, Seven Seas of Rhye, My Fairy King etc.). I love this song, everyone should listen to it. |

I love this song so much. Freddie is so brilliant. I wish he were still here. I agree, it reminds me of the early 20th century too, when people used to go down to the beach and stroll along the pier, and dance in the rain. This song always makes me feel better, just like "Lazing On a Sunday Afternoon". The use of kazoos is also great. GO FREDDIE! |

This is simply a brillant song. The first two verses are the best, Freddie does them perfectly. This has to be one of Queen's heaviest songs, and I'm not usually a fan of heavy metal songs. That just goes to show how great Queen are; They can turn any song into a masterpiece. |

Great Guitar Riff, great song. I just love how Freddie manages to change his voice from high to deep so well, especially when he does the "A little Magic in the Air" Part. Queen are amazing. |

It's a great song, one of Queen's best. It's really a shame that Freddie never revealed the meaning behind any of his work, because here we are debating all this stuff in huge detail. Oh well, at least it's the way Freddie wanted it, people thouroughly discussing his amazing work. It's a great song, no matter what it's about. And I do think it's a great connection that PursuitofLife has made between Seven Seas of Rhye/My Fairy King; I believe he's right when he says that the speaker in Seven Seas is actually the messenger in Lily of the Valley |

This is just a brilliant song, short, sweet and perfect. Only Freddie could do it this well. Like technicolor.girl said, it's the sort of song you listen to once and can't stop listening to. I absolutely love it. |
