when you are satisfied and proud for composing a masterpiece

then someone says a song about a car will be its b-side and there’s nothing you can do about it

so much work for nothing

…and you are resigned

BUT you have a brilliant idea!

your revenge will come as a funky modern disco Lp

Heaven is closer than you know ♥

Queen on an American radio phone in, 1991

Caller: Hi, I wanted to ask you about rapper Vanilla Ice borrowing your music from “Under Pressure” and did you get any compensation for it.
BRIAN: Did you say “borrowing?” You mean he’s going to give it back?
ROGER: He can keep it. The first thing is we were surprised and shocked. And then we were quite flattered in a way that he made a whole song out of one riff from one of our songs.
DJ: Did he have to ask for permission?
BRIAN: He should have done, but he didn’t, and for this reason [our record company] are suing his white ass off, if I may be so bold.

I love Queen because half of their songs are mind-blowing pieces about life and death and love and humanity’s inability to live together without destroying ourselves, and the other half are like “I love my bike”

actually there’s a third kind and it’s called “I’m Freddie Mercury And There’s Nothing You Can Do To Stop Me”
