Macro Monday – Inspired by a Song

March Of the Black Queen – A track from the Black side of the Album Queen 2.

Queen II was released in March 1974 and this particular track was written by the late, great and sadly missed Freddie Mercury. I was very young when the album was released and it was only as a teenager that I began to appreciate Queen as a Band. I have always loved this song, even though the band never really performed it live, and consider it to be one of my most favourite Queen songs!

 

I have managed to find a link to the song but be aware (in today's social climate) of some of it's vocal content. There are multiple chord and vocal changes within the song which lasts for approx 6 mins 30secs, and was probably Freddie's inspiration for Bohemian Rhapsody which came later. HMM.
