Queen - Killer Queen

"Killer Queen" is a song by the British rock band Queen. It was their breakthrough hit, reaching #2 in the UK in early 1975. The song was taken from Queen's 1974 album Sheer Heart Attack, and was written by pianist and lead singer Freddie Mercury. It was released as a double a-side, along with "Flick of the Wrist".

Mercury commented that the influences he received for the track included early Beatles records, Beach Boys and (lyrically) Noel Coward. He wrote the lyrics first before adding the complex musical arrangements. The recording features elaborate 4-part vocal harmonies (particularly in the choruses, and also providing backing parts in the verses), and also an elaborate multitracked guitar solo by Brian May.
