#queen 39

[gallifreyanposting]

This has been collecting dust unfinished for 2 or 3 weeks, when the only thing that kept me sane was getting up from my desk, sitting on my bed and playing this song on the guitar

Your mother's eyes from your eyes cry to me

From the song "'39" by Queen. It's actually very satisfying to play once you've got hold of the technique 😅

One of my favourites to be fair

Unfinished, but I’m really enjoying it:

An Archive of Our Own, a project of the Organization for Transformative Works

To increase you enjoyment, read up on this smashing Queen song and enjoy!

39 by Queen is a beautiful and amazing song and I will fight everyone who disagrees

crying rn because I thought of the song ‘39 by Queen but instead of “Write your letters in the sand for the day I take your hand,” it’s “Write your letters in the glass for the day I eat your ass.”

I’m summoning the Brian stans

So this came up earlier today when @aroford was talking about time-dilation songs, and I never miss a chance to recommend that folks listen to this.  

This is more folksy than Queen’s usual rock style, and Brian May is the lead singer rather than Freddie Mercury.  Most probably don’t know that Brian May (Queen’s lead guitarist) had an astrophysics background, or that he went back and completed his ph.D. in astrophysics in 2008.

This song never fails to make me feel a little choked up.
