Hi everyone. I bought an album recently "The very best of Elvis Presley". What do you think I have found there? I was quite amused, but there was a "Crazy little thing called love" in the song list... Absolutely the same lyrics and music. Elvis died in 1977, so it's clear, that he wrote the song before that time. In "The game" album is written, that author of the song in Mercury. Song was written in 1979. So, who is an author of the song?
There can be only one
1) Elvis never wrote songs; he couldn't.
2) Freddie wrote it
3) The song you refer to was artificially created after the death of said singer

I find that gravely insulting towards CLTCL.

Wrong. Elvis DID write songs.

What are you talking about? How the song could be articially created after Elvies died?

To the best of my knowledge, he never got further than the odd lyric here and there.

LOL, Rick is right.
ThomasQuinn, the almighty got it wrong? *gasp*
Oh my...
We love you Mandy!
Anyway, I think Elvis wrote the song or someone else before..., but Freddie just sang it on his manner.

Digitally. Very short samples from his vocals are digitally pasted together, and manipulated to be of the right frequencies.

There's absolutely fantastic version of Crazy Little Thing Called Love on Mozart's "Live at Wembley" DVD. Wolfy played some synths himself.

He wrote Smoke on the Water. It's actually about thrush.
