[@anajulia-zi9xm]

brian is so underrated as a singer and especially as a songwriter. tbh i think queen is still underrated overall but at least freddie is really appreciated. people should pay more attention to brian, roger and john.

[@tonystark1180]

@Sebastian Ohlsson - it's a funny line, but it goes like this; ' You say, "You call me up and feed me all the lines" "You call me sweet like I'm some kind of cheese Waiting on the shelf" ' So, it's actually the "she" (the sweet lady) who is saying "you call me sweet, like I'm some kind of cheese" to the narrator / singer / songwriter :)

Good one!

[@TheBlackQueen]

I'm interested to know if they used a Gated Reverb effect on the drums, making it the first use of the effect which, 6 years before Phil Collins used it on Peter Gabriel's Intruder. The Gated Reverb became the signature drum sound of the 1980s and Queen may have done it 6 years before which is pretty interesting to me.

[@tommyturner6923]

This has always been a very haunting song. The meaning has never been clear, i've read everything from it being an ode to one's mother to an ode to a dominatrix in a star wars uniform (the album predates Star Wars by 2 or 3 years). What i always envisioned was a mortally wounded soldier lying in a battlefield(stormtroopers-WW2, stiletto knife, not the heels) expressing his undying love for his girl back home as he lay dying. Help is on the way, as he hears an ambulance in the distance, but it's too late. The echo you hear at the end of the song was his last breath. Maybe my analysis is way off, but that's what i've always thought. Regardless it's just as chilling hearing it now as it was way back then.

[@patriciaa2540]

It may also be that "she makes him feel as vulnerable / awkward as an assault soldier with stiletto heels, but your interpretation makes a lot of sense for the final part of the song and the feeling of volatile anguish it leaves.

[@hermanhelmich]

Tommy Turner Great analysis Seems reasonable

[@tonystark1180]

The sound effects towards the end, sirens etc, are also a reference to what Brian remembered from when he was lying in a hospital bed in the US with hepatitis.

[@dbnovaro]

this song is wide open to interpretations and by this makes the song a sheer work of art.

[@mikaylachapman9036]

I've seen many interpretations of this song, some think it's about being in love, or about a mother figure, or a dying soldier. My interpretation of this song is that "She" represents death. Brian wrote this after a severe battle with Hepatitis C. The sirens and heavy breathing at the end were based on Brian's experiences being hospitalized in the U.S. He was almost on the verge of death, and to me, this song is about his thoughts while in the hospital. The lyrics seem to be pondering what death could mean for him, especially the line "Who knows who she'll make me as I lie in her cocoon?" It also deals with accepting death, the line "She is my love" is about the release of death, as well as the line "The world will surely heal my ills."

[@terencestephenmoss2159]

It's about his girlfriend/ wife and the realisation that death could steal away his life from his love ❤

[@jackdaw99]

If someone else than Brian May had written this I’d think it was about drugs to be honest. It’s the perfect metaphor. Plus the song has an energy in it that makes me think about The Velvet Underground. Or maybe Pink Floyd. Love this song.

[@Kwinquark1]

Floyd I can accept. but anything as essentially vapid as VU - nah

Why is Brian so underrated ugh. People should really pay more attention to Brian, Roger, and John and not just Freddie.

[@walover165]

For all that people complain about the "new fans" and the "new fandom" of Queen, I actually think this has been a big positive - lots of the newer fans have attached themselves to Roger, Brian and John rather than just Freddie, likely because Roger and Brian are still around and active, and so there's a better spread of love.

[@babyzinc3361]

Freddie died young and beautiful. For all their talent, Brian, Roger, and John can never top that brilliant career move!

[@blondie8507]

@@walover165 well I’m one of them and I’m I think you’re totally right. Im 10x more attached to Bri and Rog than Freddie (sorry Fred), maybe because I firstly fell in love with Ben Hardy representing Roger, so it might have consequences of my love for him, and by extension Brian, because like you said they’re the two still around and I always considered them closer to each other rather than with Freddie and Deacy

[@juchetony1910]

I always thought John the most talented writer. Every song of his was a classic.

[@Whipslinger1]

The first time I heard this back in the 70's on the Sheer Heart Attack album; which is a GREAT song also, I was hooked! The Beat, Bri's vocal ease, the whole Acoustic aspect....AWESOME SAUCE!

Brian cannot be underrated. In 2020 according to the Guitarist Magazine, he was the best guitarist in the world. How could be Queen underrated when millions of people love them even though Freddie has gone almost 30 yrs ago. They will live forever in our hearts. Anyway, we are living in a totally different world, everything is about many, but try just to find anyone in the world right now is best then Queen is? Our job is to introduce them to the young generations to make them happy. That is what I have just done in a book I wrote about Freddie's songs meaning.

[@neilloughran4437]

Simply a beautiful song. I think it's clever and simple at the same time... the way the shifts occur is magical... the repeating chordal pattern simply does not get boring to me. I struggle to pick my favourite Queen album... between this and Day at the Races maybe... the music world changed in the 80s and Queen went with it and produced some nice music but the early/mid period is beyond pop music. It's artistic exploration of the human spirit. Thankfully we can now look back on the diversity and sheer beauty of the Queen back catalogue...

This is another of those Brian songs that somehow seems to sneak by on the album, but then is the one that brings you back to the album over and over.

[@kraaptica99]

Brian has such a beautiful voice. Is he... I don't know... Ordinary? Yes, normal. This is not Freddie's booming and bright voice. This is the most common human voice. And Brian's skill is legendary. This he will prove in the song "Mother Love" . Namely, in the last verse. Where he could feel what it was like for his friend to DIE. So, Brian has a very beautiful voice, and a very good vocal skill. Well, about his guitar playing, it's not for me to tell
