We're in big hit territory now and it freaks me out. How do you pick apart something so many people love and know so well? By being way too enthusiastic, that's how. Triangle. Chimes. Jangle piano. There are so many clever surprises in "Killer Queen", and the lyrics are some of Freddie's best. This was a massive stylistic turn for the band, and it worked in their favor; especially when they appeared on Top of the Pops. It was such a big hit, they played it over 400 times live; their memorable '81 Montreal gig included.
