Sorry if this question has been asked previously. I have Googled my question but cant find the answer.
How many / what Queen songs have a Shakespeare reference in them.
Cheers
My Kingdom for a Horse immediately springs to mind....
When the Hurly Burly's done..
'Serpent of the Nile' from Shakespeare's Antony and Cleopatra.
I am sure there are more but I can't think of any off hand.
Just thought of another one:
Much ado about nothing (All dead all dead). Also the name of a play written by Shakespeare.
Oberon and titania watched by a harridan ( a midsummer night dream)
Nice topic! Never heard or thought about this.
Also B.May composing music for Macbeth around 1992.
Apparently 'You've got the cutest ass I've ever seen' is in the fourth act of Henry Fifth? (Henry V) I might be wrong?!

Actually this is falsely attributed to Shakespeare (The Tempest), I think.
