“Crazy Little Thing Called Love took me five or 10 minutes," Freddie Mercury said in a 1981 interview with Melody Maker. "I did that on the guitar, which I can’t play for nuts, and in one way it was quite a good thing, because I was restricted, knowing only a few chords." The song made its debut on this day - October 5 - back in 1979 and appeared on Queen's eighth album, The Game. #Queen #freddiemercury #classicrock Get Radio X Plus and listen ad-free!* Radio X Plus is everything you love about Radio X, but without the ad breaks* – so you’ll hear even more music.
