    Roger Taylor wrote this great song for the Queen Soundtrack for the movie Highlander. I really love this song, great beat, bass is killer and Brian's guitar is perfection. Freddie has so much emotion in his voice that it makes you believe every word of the song.

      Taylor is credited with the song -- and his version was in Highlander -- but for the album (aka this version that enjoyed a lot of commercial success), "Freddie Mercury wrote a new bass line, added some instrumental spacers, changed the order and produced a new mix with David Richards ... Mercury had almost completely re-written the song ..." This was while Taylor was out of town.

    Queen is A Kind Of Magic!! So cliche but true! Written by Roger Taylor for the 1986 Highlander film soundtrack! Each member of Queen wrote a song for the movie - PRINCES OF THE UNIVERSE (Freddie) ONE YEAR OF LOVE (John) GIMME THE PRIZE & WHO WANTS TO LIVE FOREVER (Brian) DON’T LOSE YOUR HEAD (Roger). The Highlander movie is worth a watch! 🛡⚔️ 🗡

    “A Kind of Magic” was written by the band’s drummer, Roger Taylor, for the film Highlander.
    The phrase “a kind of magic” is used in Highlander by Connor MacLeod (Christopher Lambert) as a description of his immortality. Roger liked the phrase so much that he used it as inspiration for the song. There are references to the film in the lyrics: “one prize, one goal”; “no mortal man”; and “there can be only one”. The single’s cover art features an image of Clancy Brown in character as the film’s villain, The Kurgan.
    Roger wrote the melody and chords for the version that appeared in the film, which Brian described as “quite lugubrious and heavy”. But Freddie had a different take on the song.
    So Freddie composed a new bass line, added instrumental breaks, and changed the song’s order to make it more chart-friendly. The song was still credited only to Taylor. Whilst Roger’s version is at the end of the film, Freddie’s version appears on the album, in the video, and during live performances. Rogerr’s version of A Kind of Magic did not see official release until it was included on the extra EP for the 2011 special edition of the album.
    Notable is that Brian May did not use his famous Red Special guitar in the music video, but instead a 1984 copy.
    The music video was filmed in the disused Playhouse Theatre in London’s Northumberland Avenue at Charing Cross, the video was Queen’s first to include animation since Save Me, with computer graphics bringing the characters from the cover of the new album to dazzling life as, among other things, the band’s backing singers.
    The theatre was once used by the BBC to record programming for radio, and this was the inspiration for the video itself - Freddie is the magician who returns to the abandoned theatre where he was once a star and turns three down-and-out squatters (Brian, Roger, and John) into his band. The shoot itself was somewhat less magical - the theatre lacked central heating and was very cold, much to the discomfort of the band and the crew.

    I've looked at the comments so far, and I need to address what's missing: no props to Mr. John Deacon. That bass playing was awesome and basically the best of this song. He carried it on his shoulders. Give the guy some love.

    • @chergui77
      @chergui77 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

    The live version of this is so much better than the video, IMO. I think the performance at Wembley in 1986 is their best performance of this song. So if you get a chance might want to check it out. I really think you will appreciate "March of the Black Queen" lyric video. The song was to complex to do live except in a melody and you never get the full version. Thank you for all your reactions, they are very much appreciated.

(this was written for the "Highlander" movie)... I always enjoy your reactions and look forward to more... Brian May was incredible on this one...

    A Kind of Magic was criminally underrated in the states,and huge everywhere else.A lot of my American friends thought they had split up as there was no tour and no internet for news back then.Highlander sadly also came out about the time of Top Gun and fell under the radar.Thank you for appreciating this and there are some great tracks on the album..try Gimmie The Prize turned up Brian May is on fire.

    You should watch a live version from Queen + Adam Lambert 2022 tour. The tech department came up with a gizmo for Brian's red special where he could shoot pyrotechnics from his guitar. It's pretty cool.
