Don’t Stop Me Now – Song Info
“Don’t Stop Me Now”was on Queen’s 1978 album Jazz and this song was released as a single in 1979. The song was written by Freddie Mercury, and Queen recorded it in August 1978 at Super Bear Studios in Berre-les-Alpes (Alpes-Maritimes), France. There are a few photos on the internet of the boys enjoying the swimming pool at this location but I don’t think it still functions as a recording stduio.
The song starts with Freddie singing over a piano intro with a little bass at the start also but as soon as the song starts it is all rocking. Lots of multilayered Queen signature harmonies and a very lyrical vocal line also (If you’ve ever tried singing this in Kraoke, you know there are a lot of words to try get out)
Don’t Stop Me now also appears Queen Greatest Hits and it has been included on many compilations since. The song reached number 9 on the UK charts and Numebr 10 on the Irish Singles charts. A live version of Don’t Stop me Now features on the Queen’s 1979 album Live Killers.
