Queen for a Day - Calling All Girls
Why was this a single?
Seriously.
Why was this a single? Why was a post-apocalyptic, THX-1138 themed video shot for this? Why does this band let Roger do....anything besides drum?
Because he's never had one, obviously. That's where the big money is. Roger knows that. He lobbied to have "I'm in Love With My Car" as the B-Side to Bohemian Rhapsody and, as such, received 50% of the income from the sale of that monster.
Then Freddie and Brian became the band's single kings.
Then he watched Deacon get rich off of "Another One..." and probably figured...dammit! I want IN.
But, this is not the song he would achieve that success with. Cuz, I don't think he knows what he ever wants to write about.
It's a love song.
Wait. It's a call to arms song.
Wait...it's an acoustic new wave mess of a ultimate uselessness.
Don't waste your time.
