    Once upon a time, Brian May, the legendary guitarist of Queen, was walking down the streets of London when he spotted an old lady struggling with her bags. Being the gentleman he is, Brian offered to help her carry her bags. As they walked, they struck up a conversation and Brian learned that the old lady's name was Mrs. Oliphant.
    Mrs. Oliphant turned out to be a big fan of Queen, and was thrilled to be talking to one of her musical idols. She mentioned that she had seen them perform live a few times, and even had a treasured photo of Freddie Mercury and herself taken at one of their concerts.
    Feeling a connection with Mrs. Oliphant, Brian invited her to join him for a cup of tea at a nearby cafe. They sat and chatted for hours about music, life, and everything in between. As they were about to leave, Mrs. Oliphant mentioned that she had a surprise for Brian.
    They walked down the street to a small shop where Mrs. Oliphant disappeared into the back room. After a few minutes, she reemerged wearing a donkey jacket covered in patches from various rock bands. Brian was impressed by the jacket's unique style, and Mrs. Oliphant explained that it had been a prized possession of her late husband, who was also a big music fan.
    Feeling touched by Mrs. Oliphant's story, Brian asked if he could take a photo with her wearing the donkey jacket. Mrs. Oliphant was thrilled, and they posed for a picture that would later become a treasured memory for both of them.
    From that day on, Brian and Mrs. Oliphant became good friends, bonding over their love of music and the special connection they had made that day. Brian even dedicated a song to her at one of Queen's concerts, thanking her for reminding him of the true spirit of rock and roll.

      I think in this song it gets a lot more distinctive, as Brian is using the Deacy Amp.

    They did so many styles. They did a Waltz. "The Millionaire Waltz". They did ragtime, callipso, metal, funk, soul, blues, ballards etc etc. There is even a lullaby.

    Nice to see you back with a new Queen reaction 🤩. Freddie wrote this cute song about his relationship with David Minns. It's amazing how Brian put the electric guitar solo into the old fashioned melodic music. Seaside Rendezvous is another gem.

    Queen are never boring - their songs are all so different. These lyrics are really clever, perfectly sung by Freddie, and Brian's guitar solo is just a class act.

    Thanks, JM! such a sweet song - and the recognition of Brian! Always enjoy your reactions... (P.S. if you really like Brian, there is a fantastic video of one of his solos that was filmed when he visited Tenerife, Canary Islands of course, b/c famous space observatory... ) when you have time & inclination, "In another world" - is stunning... ua-cam.com/video/rJI_CkHJ9Z0/v-deo.html

    The Studio version of this one is definitely superior, simply bc they couldnt do all the harmonies and guitar harmonies they could on the studio version, the solo is 10x better, and this was great
