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.

I find that the secret to this tune is getting the D A changes for the verses and intro right. Very difficult to write out for someone who knows zip about rhythm theory; this is an approximation, not a subsitute for learning by listening. The D is strummed with fairly fast up-and-down strokes; the A is basically just downstrokes. When the verse switches chords, play the C in the rhythm as the A, the G like the D. Clear as mud?:-) The D** in the chorus includes a run on the B string. Starting from the D chord: 3, 2, 0, 0/2/3, with the last three in quick succession. Other chords: Dm7 = xx0211, C#7 = x4342x. As the words are simple, they really need to be sung in the right spirit - something between sombre and tortuous (?!).
