Punk Icon MADE FUN of Singer’s Masculinity…Responded with TOUGHEST Rock Hit EVER!-Professor of Rock

One of the greatest Power anthems in rock history was actually sort of written by this legendary band’s fans! Queen and We Will Rock You was inspired by the band’s fans and the band wanting to include them. The legendary singer/guitar duo of Freddie Mercury and Brian May wrote a song that would unite the masses and It began as live improvisation and even though it has one of the biggest driving beats ever it doesn’t actually contain drums! It’s all natural. once you see this song story you’ll never hear the song the same way again… Finally when Queen was recording it, one of the most infamous bands in history kept interrupting them and their frontman made fun of their Freddie Mercury but he would have the last laugh creating a song that would blow everyone away the story is next.

Queen was on their A Day at the Races Tour in 1977. The tour was going extremely well, as the band continued to elevate their stature to one of the biggest rock bands in the world. With a magnetic and powerful frontman who lit up the stage by the name of Freddie Mercury… Fans that went to see Queen perform on that tour were lively & passionate about the concerts. It was HUGE sold-out tour.

But…there was one particular show that stood out from the rest, at Bingley Hall in Stafford, England, where the audience was so emotionally involved in the performance, the band was completely taken aback.On that magical night inside Bingley Hall... Queen did their encore... and then went off stage. The band was used to the fans cheering after an encore- begging the band to return to the stage and give them more.

But, instead of the usual clamoring, the entire audience began to sing to the band….in unison….”You’ll Never Walk Alone, ”the wondrous Show tune from Rodgers & Hammerstein that was used in the 1956 musical Carousel and adopted as the theme song for sporting teams in Europe & special events throughout the world. The display of affection for the group from the fans singing “You’ll Never Walk Alone" absolutely stunned the 4 band members. From that enthralling experience, lead guitarist & co-founder Brian May & frontman Freddie Mercury knew that it was time to create a song the fans could participate in. A song that would unite the audience, and the band as one.

Overcome by what had happened in Stafford, Freddie & Brian, began to follow the inspiration from the crowd, and they each came up with a song, independent from one another, that would become transcendent sing-a-long anthems. It wasn’t a competition, it was something that two iconic musicians felt compelled to do. They felt it would motivate to reach their end goal.

Freddie came up with “We are the Champions,” and Brian invented “We Will Rock You.” We’ll do a feature soon on “We are the Champions,” but this is about“We Will Rock You.”
