Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

Answer:

The lead guitarist Brian May penned "Hammer to Fall.". The song also featured on the band's eleventh album, "The Works," which was also released in 1984. The song was allegedly inspired by the Cold War, which was a period of conflict between the US and Russia and their allies. The tension dissipated in 1991 after the breakup of the Soviet Union.

On his website, Brian explained what the lyrics actually meant for the song; it was essentially about life and death, wherein death is a normal aspect of it. In the end, everyone will die; it doesn't matter if you're wealthy, destitute, well-known, or simply a regular person - the outcome is always the same. Additionally, according to Brian's website, the sound of the hammer dropping is only a symbol of the Grim Reaper carrying out his duty.

Queen sang the song "Hammer to Fall" at the Live Aid concert in 1985 with two of their other well-known hits, "Bohemian Rhapsody" and "Radio Ga Ga".

I'm sure most of you will know that Queen was formed in London in 1970 by Freddie Mercury, Roger Taylor, and Brian May, with John Deacon the last member to join the band a little while later. The band's debut studio album was called "Queen," released in 1973 on the EMI Records label in the UK and Elektra Records in the US. In the early days, Queen played a genre of hard rock, heavy metal, and progressive rock. The debut album charted for the first time on the UK Albums Chart in 25th position and 83rd on the US Billboard 200.
