Guh = astonishment at the suggestion. ... I must have read wrong

Sounds so banal when translated LOL

Guh at what, the remix suggestion? Should be a piece of cake if you got all the compound parts I guess. Finding those parts might be not XD
Otherwise, the melody is phrased after the chords. Some harmony trouble might arise at times – it’s Queen! – but still, why should it be a killer? It’s within a reach of a human to simplify some parts and make a little faster the whole thing and then what you got is rockabilly :-)
and pray tell, HOW dou you intend changing the intonation and empahsis in the vocals to make that sound rockabollox?

I’ve no idea what you mean by rockabollox, darling dear. What about the old good rock’n’roll stylization know as rockabilly, the emphasis and intonation are exactly right. Wanna bet?
You'd lose. There's no rockabilly involved, and I really don't see any way you could fake it without making it sound like a four-minute digital glitch.

Are you just talking or do you actually want to be in?

Sure it’s been involved. The whole song is like a bad relationship, the vocal tries to carry on like “save me! I’m rock’n’roll!” and the arrangement responds “and you’re screwed”. I’m just saying, it’s not the verdict :-)
stop talking like a tit

ieven the vocal sound like a piss-poor diana ross "chain reaction" crapola.

no way is it rockabollox or rocknbollox or any other kind of 50s crap

Darling dear, I talk because I know what I hear, I know what I mean, and I know how I can possibly prove it; plus I’m old enough to distinguish that every cliché the stupid keep repeating on the internet [generally speaking/nothing personal XD] isn’t the voice of truth XD

Now, how about you? Let alone you are badly underrating old good Freddie; you don’t even have courage to say that the opinion you defend is yours. What a disappointment :-(
Did I say “wanna bet”? Forget about it. Clearly, you have no guts, no spark, no nothing… you’re a waste of time!
i've explained what i mean - not my fault you can't read
but then it's fairly obvious you can't read properly - you can't even spell  Zaza Gabor [sic] correctly.

sounds like you picked your nickname (trying to appear clever/deep) - from a David Wigg interview from something Freddie said ONCE. 
"and they were very nice, and I did, so I mean all the shutters were down, and I went along, and I felt like, I dunno, Zsa Zsa Gabor I suppose"

Besides… It’s good to be me XD

@brENsKi I agree it sounds like Diana Ross. Whether it's "piss poor" or not depends on your POV. It's not outstanding - to me - because it' doesn't develop much from DR. But there is SOME development. It certainly doesn't sound like "Stray Cat Strut". :-)

....anyone with a musical ear knew from the start that they don't meld together, but you HAD to prove the point - and prove YOURSELF wrong
you've created "Ross-a-billy" - and it's every bit as awful as the name suggests

Aww really, briENsKi?
No problem, I can always make another one for you. It’s the least I can do to thank my personal hater for keeping my motivation up LOL
