Permanent Tag: Television Rating: Good Hits: 1048 Comments: 1 Robert Wuhl: Assume the Position Robert Wuhl: Assume the Position In this half-hour NSFW HBO comedy, circa 2006, Wuhl plays a teacher. He confesses to having studied nothing while an undergraduate at the University of Houston. But the comedian and actor decided that he wanted to become a college professor. Not a real one, but a humorous substitute, backed by an HBO crew, who would amuse a packed lecture hall with a curriculum proposing that American history was popular culture — and a lot of gossip.

Headline Tag: Music Rating: Amazing Hits: 836 Comments: 1 Queen: Innuendo Queen: Innuendo 1991 song written by Freddie Mercury and Roger Taylor as a tribute to Led Zeppelin. The music was started off by Brian May, Roger Taylor and John Deacon jamming in the studio in Montreux. From then on Freddie Mercury composed the song and added the long interlude. The melody is Mercury's as well. Lyrics were started off by Mercury but completed by drummer Roger Taylor. The orchestra in the middle part was completely done with synthesizers; by Freddie Mercury and the producer David Richards. Yes guitarist Steve Howe played the Spanish guitar solo in the middle because, admittedly, Brian May couldn't do it. Steve dropped by in the studio to say hi to producer David Richards, then Freddie invited him to join them on the track. This was Queen's third #1 in the UK after "Bohemian Rhapsody" and "Under Pressure." Chris Daughtry performed this song on the fifth season of American Idol. Simon Cowell called his performance "indulgent" and asked why he didn't sing one of the great Queen songs instead. User: spam_vigilante Jun 6, 2008 4:03 AM
Headline Tag: Music Videos Rating: Amazing Hits: 859 Comments: 0 Queen: Hammer to Fall Queen: Hammer to Fall Hammer to Fall is a 1984 hard rock song written by Brian May and performed by the British rock group Queen with Freddie Mercury on lead vocal. It appeared in their 1984 album The Works. It was the fourth and final single to be released from that album, although the single version was edited down by thirty seconds in contrast to the version on the album. Different sleeves were used to package this single and the live picture sleeve is now a collector's item. The song was also the subject of a popular music video directed by David Mallet, in which was a regular live performance of the song by the band in Brussels during the Works Tour (Roger Taylor can be seen wearing a "Choose Life" t-shirt in the video). The song harks back to the Queen of old, with a song being built around a hard angular and muscular riff. The song was a concert favourite and was also played at Live Aid. A different version of the song with the first part played in the style of a ballad was played by Queen + Paul Rodgers in 2005. The song peaked at number 13 in the UK and was later featured in the movie Highlander. User: spam_vigilante Mar 17, 2008 4:24 AM

Headline Tag: Music Rating: Amazing Hits: 2268 Comments: 6 Queen: Bicycle Race Queen: Bicycle Race The new uncensored version of the music video for Bicycle Race for "Greatest Video Hits I", edited by David Mallet using the footage of the original video. Bicycle Race is a hit single for the English rock band Queen. It was released on their 1978 album Jazz and written by Queen's frontman Freddie Mercury. To release this song, Queen staged a bicycle race with 65 naked girls. A clip from this race was used as the single cover. The video was originally banned, and the video had to be re-edited with colour added to censor out any offensive imagery. The song is famed for its 'bicycle bell solo', which fans would often replicate live at Queen concerts with their own such bells. It was released as a Double-A side with the song "Fat Bottomed Girls". A still photograph from the naked bicycle race was used for the single cover, a pair of bikini bottoms crudely painted on the photo of the naked rider. RT 3:09. Slightly out of synch audio but not too bad. User: spam_vigilante Feb 28, 2008 3:49 PM
Headline Tag: Music Videos Rating: Good Hits: 911 Comments: 3 Queen: You're My Best Friend Queen: You're My Best Friend A song penned by John Deacon and performed by Queen. It was originally included on the A Night at the Opera album in 1975, and later released as a single. This song also appeared on the Greatest Hits (1981) album. Deacon wrote the song for his wife, Veronica. In this song, he plays a Wurlitzer electric piano in addition to bass guitar. The characteristic 'bark' of the Wurlitzer's bass notes plays a prominent role in the song. During live performances of the song, piano section would be played on a grand piano by Freddie Mercury, while Deacon played the bass guitar. User: spam_vigilante Feb 19, 2008 2:22 AM
