Album Queen II
Info about song
Freddie Mercury composed "March Of The Black Queen" at the piano in 1973, and the song was included a year later on Queen's second album Queen II. It is the only Queen song containing polyrhythm/polymeter (two different time signatures simultaneously 8/8 and 12/8), which is very rare for popular music. The full piece was too complicated to perform live by the band, however the uptempo section containing the lines (sung by Roger Taylor) "My life is in your hands, I'll foe and I'll fie..." etc was sometimes included in a live medley during the 1970s. The riff before the end of the song that's lead to"Forget your sing-alongs..." was also used in Bohemian Rhapsody. The song segues into the next track, "Funny How Love Is". This song ends with an ascending note progression, which climaxes in the first second of the following track. Read more on Last.fm.
