It appeared originally in his band's, The Cross, album ''Shove It'', with Freddie Mercury as a guest vocalist, and it's the album's fourth track. It was reworked with Queen's music and appeared in the 1995 album ''Made in Heaven'', where it was the seventh track and released as the first single. The song reached number two on the UK Singles Chart.〔Roberts, David (2006). British Hit Singles & Albums.

==Background and writing==
Some reports have Roger Taylor writing the song in 1986 as part of Queen's ''A Kind of Magic'' album sessions, after their work on ''Highlander'' was complete. If he did, the song was not used, or was left incomplete when the album was finished. When Taylor started working on the material for the album ''Shove It'', he recruited Freddie Mercury to record the backing vocals on the song. Two versions were recorded, one with Mercury doing only backing vocals to Taylor's lead vocals, and another with Mercury singing the lead vocals. The backing track of each was re-recorded as well, instead of the two lead vocals being recorded over the same instrumental backing. The Taylor-vocal version is about twenty seconds longer than the Mercury-vocal version.
The Cross versions also feature a spoken intro by Taylor, as well as a spoken refrain in the middle. The refrain in the Taylor vocal has an extra lyric not sung in the Mercury-vocal version (though it appears in the printed lyrics). Both versions end with Taylor saying "And that. Is the end. Of this section." It's unclear if he means 'section' as that half of the album, or the serious-issues section of the album (this song being the only ''serious'' song on the album).
The UK edition of the album ''Shove It'' featured Mercury's vocal version, while the UK single featured Taylor's vocal version. In the US, the album featured Taylor's vocal version and neither were released as a single.
