I always had more in the bottom/legs than in the boobs and I was hit on a lot by all persuasions. lol Also in the 70’s, the natural female body was the most desirable. The attraction of enhanced tops became something you only saw in strip clubs and Playboy type magazines. Times did change though.

You would think Freddie wrote this song - but NO it was Brian May - you know him - that studious guitar playing perfectionist composer who wrote this gem. Brian said that he wrote it for Freddie who Brian knew liked a little "more" on his companions. As a 78 year old long time Queen fan, thanks for sharing this one - it brought back all those fun memories of hearing and especially seeing this band who could compose and perform every type of music imaginable.

    This is certainly one of Queen's rockers! Remember they weren't Americans. On the cover sleeve showing in your video, that was the first US release. She had nothing on in other countries. So the US drew on a bikini bottom (poorly). Then they needed to go further and there is a 3rd shot with the bottoms and a bikini top string added. We Americans think we are so cool, but we are big snobs in some areas.

    Consider too the Brittishness. This song is a colloquial escapade of an anthem, a clarain call for unappreciated aesthetically ample posteriors. An absolute classic. Playlist. All time.

    Just think how long this song came out before Sir Mix came out with Baby GB. And in his time, it was supposed to be 'groundbreaking'? For real, in the 70's was all about the skinny blonde chick. Freddy keeping it real even way back when. Cmon. And agreed the thick,

    Queen is the Greatest Band of all time and Freddie can sing any music as if he wrote it. This song was created by Brian. I hope you can feature under pressure in their concert at Wembley and also Live Aid so you can witness how amazing the band Queen. There will never be another Freddie. Nothing compares.
