    The video was filmed in November/December 1990 (the yellow jumper was Dec 1990/blue shirt was Nov) as it was the first single relased in the US not filmed when the single was released in the UK in May 1991 as many people get mixed up with. As there a few studio bits with Freddie "I'm Kim Basinger etc and the promos were recorded for the album Nov/Dec 1990 as teasers etc

    It's a testimony of a great band that can write songs with such a vast variety of genres.
    Phenomenal band.

    Toward the end, Freddie did a collaboration with opera singer Montserrat Caballe. Title song was Barcelona, written with the intent to sing at the 1992 Barcelona Olympics. Anyway, google the background. Watch Barcelona, then watch How Can I go On.

    This song should have been on News of the World; it has that kind of energetic vibe. The part that sticks out most for me is the group background vocal, because it sounds like it was recorded live on one microphone with everybody standing around it. :)

    This song makes me happy too DD absolutely, and while it’s not my favourite either, I still love it. Queen have so many great songs it’s difficult for me to even say which is my favourite although the live version at Hammersmith of White Queen is my favourite live song. Freddie was so ill he had to wear those windcheaters and loose shirts with lots of padding underneath to disguise how much weight he had lost. But he still had such enthusiasm and zest for life, he didn’t let his illness slow him down. He should be the yardstick we all live our lives by. Another fun song you will enjoy by a bearded Freddie is Breakthru. It will get your feet tapping for sure

    There's a Rolling Stone piece in 2016 marking the 25th anniversary of Queens' final album with the original line up - about the making of Innuendo. It notes, “Headlong originated from sessions for a scrapped Brian May solo album before he gave Mercury a go at the lead vocals and recognized how perfectly it worked as a Queen song." So how can you not wonder that Brian saw that it took on a whole new dimension with Freddie singing it. Maybe he saw a bigger purpose. If you remove Brian out of the equation and whatever personal (divorce, tabloids?) inspired it, could it be with Freddie singing it he has a chance to scream it to the world (how he feels) with out admitting any such thing. There's no pity, just upbeat pursuit to get out of it. In an album called "Innuendo," maybe it just served that purpose very well. (P.S. We come for Queen talk too. Trailor is fun! YEEEESSSSS react here!

    Freddie Mercury knew he was dying. He did not want to die as a couch potato. This song reflects these facts.
    1 request:
    Queen + David Bowie. Under Pressure. Classic Queen mix.
    RIP Steve Clark of Def Leppard, died in Jan 1991,
    Freddie Mercury, died in Nov 1991,
    David Bowie, died in Jan 2016.
    Surviving members of Def Leppard + David Bowie performed separately at the Freddie Mercury concert in 1992.

    You're funny. Reacting so long to so many Queen songs and still surprised, when expectations are not fullfilled. Listening to Queen means expect the unexpetcted. That' s one of the reasons why I' m a Queen fan for more than 20 years. Especially the album Innuendo has various kinds of music should neccessarily heard complete earlier or later, because there are so many different and brillant songs on it. By the way, I really like your reactions. Especially asking google before reacting to the song is a good idea. Just go on like this.

    they had 15 albums and had top ten off 14 of them
    Nothing charted off the first album
    the only us no 1s in 1980
    were freddies crazy little thing and John ABTD
    uk no 1s Freddies
    bo rap,Q and Bowie under P, Freddie and Roger Innuendo
    no 2 uk
    freddie killer Queen,somebody to love,champions,
    Crazy little thing
    Roger GAGA and heaven for everyone
    no 3 uk
    John I want to Break free.
    Roger kind of magic
    (freddies re work)
    Brian I want it all
    they have another 10 top ten
    B flash,F seven seas,DSMN,hard life, winters tale,let me live,J best friend,ABTD,R break thru, All one vision
    Keep yourself alive would have probably done well if they had re released it and shortened the intro,didnt get a lot of radio play too long
    theres a few I would have liked released
    like cool cat
    And man on the prowl
    but some that werent dont make sense like stone cold crazy
    which metalica covered and got a grammy for!
    In 91
    Of the 14,they only didnt have a single in the top 3 on their second album (Freddie seven seas was no 10)
    and jazz 78
    (Freddie DSMN no 9 which is now their second popular on you tube after bo rap and a billion downloads on spotify second after bo rap)
    So not bad if you look at it that way!
    But obviously everyone wants more no 1s and hits
    They were to fans!
    I dont understand chart wise, rock you which was played with champions on the radio,which has now surpassed champions on you tube and spotify and Brian fat bottom girls some info puts it with bicycle,
    Also Rogers Days of our lives released on Freddie bday 91 but no chart info,then released with bo rap after Freddie death in Dec 91 both together no 1not really clear on that
    Bo rap reached no 2 us in 92
    Different sites give different info...
    (Rock you with five no 1 in 2000)
