Biography:
Queen is an English rock band originally consisting of four members: vocalist and pianist Freddie Mercury, guitarist Brian May, bass guitarist John Deacon, and drummer Roger Taylor.
The band formed in London in 1970 after May and Taylor's former band Smile split after having released an album and single. Freddie replaced lead vocalist Tim Staffell, after the latter's departure from the original trio.
There was much deliberation as to what the band's name would be.

Open your eyes, look up to the skies and see.

I'm just a poor boy, I need no sympathy, because I'm;

Gotta leave you all be-hind and face the truth.
