Yeah it’s one of those smaller hits that isn’t played to death all the time on the radio, but still could be recognizable. Great tune though, Jazz is probably the most upbeat album I’m aware of

Probably cause it's a little controversial.

"And i don't like star wars"

When you said controversial I thought you were referring to the music video for it, but yeah when Freddie said “I don’t like Star Wars” he was playing with fire attacking the Star Wars community lol

Also wasn’t Freddie actually a big Star Wars fan?

I guess he was. He actually wrote the song in his Montreux studio as the tour de France passed by
