This is not the only song that had an interesting background when written.
Queen songs are generally popular. They are an icon in the music industry. The story behind how their songs were written was generally controversial and it was only during the later part when it was discovered. Aside from Don’t Stop Me Now, their other song, Crazy Little Thing Called Love, was also interesting as it was written on a bath tub. Mercury was bathing at the time when he composed the song and even brought the piano with him.
