Queen Deep Dive: "Bicycle Race"s are coming your way

from Tater Thoughts · host Charly Tate

One of Queen's most complex, innovative, creative and fun numbers, "Bicycle Race" packs so many chord variations, key changes, and energetic shifts, it could very well be many songs. Instead, Freddie wrote this and threw in everything and the kitchen sink, inspired after witnessing the Tour De France. Live, it flew by in a flash as part of a medley, but dropped off setlists entirely after '79.
