Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What was Brian May and Roger Taylor's original band called?

Answer: Smile

The band's frontman is on record as saying "I left because I didn't think they were going anywhere." He must still be kicking himself today.

2. Whose idea was it to dress up in drag for the "I Want to Break Free" video?

Answer: Roger's

Although everybody was eager to dress up in the women's clothes, the original idea was Roger's. Funny that, eh?

3. What are the names of the male and female leads in the West End musical "We Will Rock You"?

Answer: Galileo Figaro and Scaramouche

The musical was co-produced by Brian and Roger.

4. On what arm is Freddie wearing his bangle at 'Live Aid'?

Answer: Right

I just put this in to be awkward. Did it work?

5. Which two songs from the album 'Hot Space' feature on 'Queen - The Platinum Collection'?

Answer: Las Palabras De Amor & Under Pressure

'Hot Space' is Queen's least successful album. It is also their most disturbing.

6. Who designed the Queen logo?

Answer: Freddie

Freddie took inspiration for the crest from the band's astrological signs.

7. What comes next: 'Then I'll defy the laws of nature and come out alive....'?

Answer: Then I'll get you

From 'Seven Seas of Rhye', definitely one of their best songs.

8. Which song contains the lyrics 'Watching some good friends screaming Let Me Out!'?

Answer: Under Pressure

This is a scary song, as is 'Now I'm Here'.

9. Bassist John Deacon was the last member to join the band in its original incarnation (while Freddie was alive). True or False?

Answer: True

The other three members only considered the band complete after John had joined them. Queen celebrated their tenth anniversary in 1981 and their 20th in 1990. Their 20th was celebrated early because there was doubt as to whether Freddie would still be alive the next year. As it turned out, he was.

10. Which was the last video Queen recorded as a four piece?

Answer: These Are the Days of our Lives

It was in this video that 'I Still Love You', Freddie's last recorded words, were uttered. It still makes me cry.
