This song was written by Jerry Ragavoy and was first recorded by Lorraine Ellison in 1967. It was later recorded by Peter Straker (IMHO, the far superior version) and as DragonflyTrumpeter83 said, co-produced by Freddie Mercury and Roy Thomas Baker, ALSO with Freddie Mercury participating in the backing vocals hence the Queen connection.
