  • @zsuzsannabenke9966

    Brian May wrote this song. In a 1976 interview on Capital Radio, Freddie Mercury was asked "why tie your mother down?" Freddie replied: "Well this one in fact is a track written by Brian (May) actually, I dunno why. Maybe he was in one of his vicious moods. I think he's trying to out do me after 'Death On Two Legs' actually."
    Queen commonly used explosions for effect during live and video performances of this song. During the video shoot, Roger Taylor was blown off his stool and off the stage due to an explosion placed in a bucket on his riser. While watching certain versions of the video you can see the part cut out, where Freddie turns around to face the back of the stage almost immediately. The recording had to be stopped for a moment because Roger was on the floor. Luckily, he was fine, though Brian May states clearly in video commentary, "Nearly killed Roger, it
    has to be said!

    I’ve always wondered where the idea came from for Freddie to wear this outfit. It’s so different from what he wore for concerts and videos, in the 70’s anyway. It looks good because anything he wore looked good. He was a beautiful man and had a spectacular body. Freddie IS the sexiest man ever, in my opinion! I have an unhealthy obsession with Freddie; for Queen in general but mostly Freddie. 😁

    I recall buying this album on it's day of release. I locked myself in my bedroom and slowly took off the selophane wrapping. I read the covers and lyrics then put it on the turntable and sat waiting. The organ music came on and lasted exactly one minute and then this song broke into my head and I discovered one of the best albums of all time . I played it so much the disc turned almost white. Is this Queens finest moment?

    [Verse 1]
    Get your party gown
    Get your pigtail down
    Get your heart beating baby
    Got my timing right
    Got my act all tight
    It's got to be tonight my little
    School babe
    [Guitar solo]
    Your momma says you don't
    And your Daddy says you won't
    And I'm boiling up inside
    There is no way I'm going to lose out this time
    [Chorus]
    Tie your Mother down
    Tie your Mother down
    Lock your Daddy out of doors
    I don't need him nosing around
    Tie your Mother down
    Tie your Mother down
    Give me all your love tonight
    [Verse 2]
    You're such a dirty louse
    Go get out of my house
    That's all I ever get from your
    Family ties, in fact I don't think I ever heard
    A single little civil word
    From those guys
    But you know I don't give a light
    I'm going to make out all right
    I've got a sweetheart hand
    To put a stop to all that
    Grousing and sniping
    [Chorus]
    Tie your Mother down
    Tie your Mother down
    Send your brother swimming with a brick
    That's alright
    Tie your Mother down
    Tie your Mother down
    Or you ain't no friend of mine!
    [Verse 3]
    Your momma and your Daddy going to
    Plague me until I die
    Why can't they understand I'm just a
    Peace loving guy
    [Chorus]
    Tie your Mother down
    Tie your Mother down
    Get that big big big big big big
    Daddy out the door
    Tie your mother down yeah
    Tie your mother down
    Give me all your love tonight
    All your love tonight

      @@arafat9828 I think it was written by Brian May, not Freddie Mercury, so really the song is not referring to homosexuality in any way, shape or form. Rather it is about a girl whose parents either disapprove of their daughter's choice of a boyfriend or simply consider premarital sex to be immoral.

    I was in my early 20's when I first heard this song...wasn't on the radio though. I had a dj gig at a bar and unbeknownst to me it was a rough hardcore biker bar. I played ac/dc led zep doors eagles...you name it I played it and I got an awful response from the crowd. On a mixed tape (yeah I'm old) I found one titled rock hits. I played this song not knowing what it actually sounded like. The intro, the real intro, is an odd guitar solo and I was like uh oh. Man this song kicked in and the place erupted. I'll never forget that night ever. Freddie saved my life that night.
