Queen - Brighton Rock descargar videos gratis

From the 'Sheer Heart Attack' album, 1974. Written by Brian May.

Brian May wrote "Brighton Rock" in 1973 but they couldn't finish recording it for the second album so they did it in the third. The song was originally intended to be a duet but Freddie Mercury ended up doing both female and male parts of the vocals. The song is probably best-known for its lengthy guitar solo interlude. This featured May's technique of using multiple echoes used to build up guitar harmony and contrapuntal melodic lines. The studio version only contains one "main" guitar and one "echoed" guitar for a short section, but live, he would usually split his guitar signal into "main" and two "echoed", with each going to a separate bank of amplifiers. Originally the solo was part of the song "Blag", from May and Roger Taylor's previous band Smile. May would then play it live in the Queen song "Son and Daughter", but that never happend.

Lyrics:

Happy little day, Jimmy went away.

Met his little Jenny on a public holiday.

A happy pair they made so decorously laid.

'Neath the gay illuminations all along the promenade.

It's so good to know there's still a little magic in the air.

I'll weave my spell...

Jenny will you stay tarry with me pray

Nothing e'er need come between us.

Tell me love what do you say?

Oh no I must away to my mum in disarray.

If my mother should discover how I spent my holiday.

It would be of small avail to talk of magic in the air.

I'll say farewell...

Oh rock of ages do not crumble!

Love is breathing still..

Oh lady moon shine down,

A little people magic if you will.

Jenny pines away writes a letter ev'ry day.

We must ever be together..

Nothing can my love erase.

Oh no, I'm compromised...

I must apologize if my lady should discover.

How I spent my holidays...
