A clouded dream on an earthly night Hangs upon the crescent moon A voiceless song in an ageless light Sings at the coming dawn Birds in flight are calling there Where the heart moves the stones It's there that my heart is longing for All for the love of you A painting hangs on an ivy wall Nestled in the emerald moss The eyes declare a truce of trust And then it draws me far away Where deep in the desert twilight Sand melts in pools of the sky When darkness lays her crimson cloak Your lamps will call, call me home. And so it's there my homage's due Clutched by the still of the night And now I feel, feel you move Every breath is full So it's there my homage's due Clutched by the still of the night Even the distance feels so near All for the love of you. A clouded dream on an earthly night Hangs upon the crescent moon A voiceless song in an ageless light Sings at the coming dawn Birds in flight are calling there Where the heart moves the stones It's there that my heart is longing for All for the love of you.

Article Link On this chart date 35 years ago, Queen could call themselves a No. 1 band in America for the first time. ‘Crazy Little Thing Called Love,’ which had been thwarted in its efforts to top the UK bestsellers late the year before, seized the American singles crown, and wore it for a full month. Written solely by Freddie Mercury and delivered in a rock ‘n’ roll tribute style with heavy echo on his voice, the song had spent two weeks at No. 2 in Queen’s home country in November 1979. It was held off the top by Dr. Hook’s pop confection ‘When You’re In Love With A Beautiful Woman.’ But on the Billboard Hot 100 for February 23, 1980, ‘Crazy Little Thing’ removed the Captain & Tennille’s ‘Do That To Me One More Time’ from the No. 1 spot. It stayed there four weeks, before being succeeded by another British rock classic, Pink Floyd’s ‘Another Brick In The Wall.’ Their previous best US showing had been the No. 4 peak of the double-sided ‘We Will Rock You’ and ‘We Are The Champions.’ The new single went on to be certified gold in both the US and UK, as well as in Holland. “I wrote the song languishing in my bath at the Munich Hilton,” Mercury said in the Billboard Book of Number One Hits, by Fred Bronson. He reportedly got out of the tub to go to his guitar and piano to lay down the melody. “We arranged [it] at band rehearsals the following day with me trying to play rhythm guitar. “Everyone loved it, so we recorded it. The finished version sounded like the bathroom version.It’s not typical of my work, but that’s because nothing is typical of my work.” Peter Hince, head of Queen’s road crew, confirmed the song’s origins in a 2009 interview with Mojo. “The idea for the song came to him while he was in the bath,” he said. “He emerged, wrapped in a towel, I handed him the guitar and he worked out the chords there and then. Fred had this knack of knowing a great pop song.”
