QUEEN - SCANDAL
Filmed at Pinewood Studios, London (Sept 27th, 1989)
“The song unfortunately failed to generate much airplay, but with help from Queen’s UK record company releasing no fewer than six versions of the single, the band’s most faithful fans helped it get to a respectable number 25 in the national singles charts.”
“(,,,) It was a pretty serious song – not serious in the sense that I think it’s that great (laughs), but in that there was a lot of reality in the lyrics for me… I don’t think it’s totally successful, this video, as a portrayal of what’s in the song. It’s a kind of brave attempt, but it’s a little cold, and you don’t really see the band interacting as a band. It’s a bit stagey. But at least it makes you think of what the song’s really about.” - Brian May (2003)

Album moodboards 2/?   ↳ Sheer Heart Attack | Queen | 1974
She’s a Killer Queen Gunpowder, gelatin Dynamite with a laser beam Guaranteed to blow your mind
“'Killer Queen’ I wrote in one night. I’m not being conceited or anything, but it just fell into place. Certain songs do.” – Freddie Mercury.
Sheer Heart Attack is the third studio album by the British rock band Queen, released on 8 November 1974 by EMI Records in the United Kingdom and by Elektra Records in the United States. Digressing from the progressive themes featured on their first two albums, this album featured more conventional rock tracks and marked a step towards the “classic” Queen sound [x].
