So how do you sing to a child : “Mama I just killed a man,Put a gun against his head, pulled my trigger, now he’s dead?” Leave it up to the Muppets and The Animal to convey the emotions and feeling that went in to Queen‘s Baroque classic , just in a very G rated way.
The Muppets version was recorded to mark the 18th anniversary of Freddie Mercury‘s death (24 November 1991). A lot of super bands can only wish to attract 3 million viewers to their youtube videos in just over 3 days, but with the classic combo of Queen and the Muppets you just can’t go wrong.
Somewhere up in the great blue sky Freddie must surly be smiling down at the celebration of one of his great achievements. Who else but Miss Piggy dare leave us with the infamous line ” Nothing really matters….but moi?”
Happy Thanksgiving everybody!
