Wow that is pretty cool, you can press play on the second 'O' in Google for a nice animation with DSMN playing.

I laughed out loud at Freddie riding a bicycle, with bunnies hopping after him.

Oh, and "men singing" cracked me up, too.

A fine tribute to the true King of Rock 'n' Roll - suck on that Elvis Presley and *pauses to spew* Michael Jackson *shudders*. Quick question though: WHY IN THE NAME OF BRIAN'S HAIR would they pick the Don't Stop Me Now video?!? Queen HAVE other songs, you know - hell, they have other HITS!

I, for one, am getting sick and tired of DSMN being the only Queen song people have ever heard of. I'm willing to bet that if you ask the average person to name 5 Queen songs, they'll struggle after DSMN and WWRY. And despite its video, IWTBF is waning in popularity - sadly, it didn't reach no.1 like a recent campiagn wanted. Or least I think it didn't, I'll have to thoroughly check.

Superb tribute, loved it!
Great stuff Google.

Nothing wrong with Don't Stop Me Now for a tribute ditty, poppy, fun, perfect.

First, take some valium. Second, DSMN is a far more original choice than, for instance, Boh Rhap, Champions, Love of My Life or Somebody To Love would have been. Some people (note that I mean you) will always find something to nag about. If you assert that "DSMN [is] the only Queen song people have ever heard of", I can only ask what it is you are smoking.
