The band had decided not to use the ubiquitous synthesiser, as they thought it was superfluous. Instead, instrumentation utilised includes a jangle piano (detuned), drum kit, bass guitar, electric guitar and vocals. Howard from St. Louis Park, MnThis well written ditty put Queen on the map. It's probably the only Top 40 hit to mention Nikita Khruschev and John F. Kennedy in the same verse. Let's not forget Marie Antoinette. Announced as a playful, sophisticated, powerful, edgy and delicious fragrance, it reflects the rebellious spirit of the singer. Its creation is signed by Laurent Le Guernec of IFF. Top notes include wild berries, dark plum and bergamot accords. The main note of the heart is velvety red flower (Celosia), but there are also Sambac jasmine and rainbow plumeria. The base contains cashmere, patchouli and liquid praline. John, Duxbury, MA QUOTE - Erm, no he wasn't! Freddie never had any formal training for his singing, but his vocal range spanned 4 octaves which gave him the perfect kind of voice to sing opera. He was however an accomplished pianist reaching a grade IV, and he also, as a one off, danced with the Royal Ballet, again without prior training. He was just exceptionally naturally talented. A Mad Queen Fan. :) George Pope from British ColumbiaOf course it's guillotine -- this fits in with the Marie Antoinette references -- Marie was beheaded by guillotine during the revolt

Nikita from Drogheda, IrelandI agree with Alexandria from Preston, CT. Songs shouldn't be covered. The original is ALWAYS the greatest.Mercury was embarrassed by his nerdish obsession with international chess and when interviewed about the hit song he made up a story about a classy whore.

As the initial fruity sweetness mellows, it subtly transitions into a floral heart. The serene scent of frangipani majestically takes the stage, radiating a tropical, exotic aroma. A whisper of jasmine sambac graces the concoction, adding a touch of romantic seduction with its slightly sweet and subtly earthy aroma. Claire from England99% sure it's guillotine not gelatine. My mum is obsessed with Queen since she was a teenager. She assures me it's guillotine. Robert from St. Louis, MoSorry folks, but Marie Antoinette NEVER said "Let them eat cake." That infamous line was actually uttered nearly 80 years before by Marie Thérèse of Spain, the Queen Consort of Louis the XIV. Where Killer Queen truly shines is its versatility. It's just as suitable for a fun night out as it is for a busy day at work. The oriental notes add a sense of warmth, making it perfect for colder seasons, while the synthetic elements lend it a contemporary, cutting-edge vibe that's hard to ignore. Gywn from Niskayuna, Nymarie Antoinette said let them eat cake because the peasents were to poor to afford bread, but because she was queen so she thougt that there was no breaad.However, Killer Queen is not without its flaws. Its longevity and sillage, while decent, leave a bit to be desired. The perfume may need to be reapplied throughout the day, especially during rigorous activities. Maor from Sederot, Israelas i know, Antoinette was so ignoret she didnt knew regular people cant afford cakes.

Emily from Smithfield, NcWhat is the actual word in the line chorus line "Gunpowder _________, dynamite with a laser beam"? It is hard to discern when listening to the song, and I've seen many interpretations such as turpentine and gelatine (? I know of gelatin, but not this), and I personally hear "guillotine" which to me makes sense with the rest of the lyrics, and coincides with the Marie Antoinette reference. However, I am notorious for mishearing things, so this may be another case of that.

The scent is predominantly sweet, but it doesn't overwhelm the senses. Instead, it creates a delightful blend that is light, yet memorable. The fruity undertones bring a youthful, playful energy to the perfume, making it appealing to younger audiences. Meanwhile, the floral and gourmand notes add a sophisticated depth, enhancing its appeal to mature women as well. Nunzio from Darwin, AustraliaTravis covered this on their SING single...original is still the best. Kelly from Burbank, CaA high class hooker, eh? Freddie, Freddie, Freddie...well my spin on it was that she was a high class top of the line assasinator. You know, like James Bond only a girl. That would make sense of the chorus and lyrics for me at least. I don't know. But what I do know is that this is a fantastic song with a good vocabulary and tune, so I won't read into the lyrics too much. Nice job, Queen.
