Actual lyrics are credited under some kid band called my chemical romance. what a worthless site !!! | Reviewer: Sonya | 11/9/07 I just can't believe, the lyrics above. There are so many homophobic people filled with hatred. Although Freddy was gay he was one of a kind. And no matter if the song was for the qay population or not, this song should teach us all,about love and RESPECT towards all the people. Anal Pressure | Reviewer: Anal Preasure | 11/3/07 Anal preasure pushing down on me pressing down from you my ass is a whore. Anal preasure your cock burns on the way down. splits my ass in two with no knee pads for the street. I'm so gay, I'm so gay, so gay, so gay. that's OK. It's the terroe of knowing that your cock swings about. Watching other guys say pull it out. it's not all about pressure | Reviewer: HEdgehog | 10/31/07 Well, i've seen everyone around is focusing on that little word "pressure" that is indeed the one mostly repeated. But haven't you seen that other word "love" I think the song's more about love than it is to pressure, and about some hope feeling as well, hehe, I know this sounds old fashioned just as the song says but it's the part of the song i consider the most important one. Not Freddie's lyrics ! | Reviewer: Tom Tlist | 10/9/07 I have read a few interesting reviews for this song but i feel that a few are a wee bit wide of the mark. I dont think this song relates to Freddie's struggle with AIDS and is him coming out - when this song was written (1980/81) Freddie would not have been aware that he was ill - this didnt come until at least 4 years later. I also dont think this is nessecarily about Freddie dealing with being gay. The songwriting is credited as Queen and David Bowie but Roger Taylor (Queen's drummer) has said in interviews since that the song was mostly his creation and the bulk of the music was jammed out in the studio with Deacon providing the memorable bassline and May and Mercury adding more musical ideas as it developed into a song. By the time David Bowie dropped by (unplanned) and recorded his vocals, the bulk of the lyrics were already penned by Taylor. A great song and like most Queen songs, it is sheer imagination - it allows the listener to be taken to another place and the song can mean whatever they want it to mean. Quite simply it is one of the best singles of all time !!!! Freddie's Tough Love | Reviewer: Rhy | 10/5/07 I've been looking at this song for a while. But I always find the same conclusion. Freddie as we all know was gay. And I have no problem with that. This song expresses the struggles of the gay community. It's really as simple as that. Pressure pushing down on me Pressing down on you no man ask for Under pressure That burns a building down Splits a family in two Puts people on streets This stanza is showing the effects of being a gay man. The fact is that, unfortunately, families do get torn apart and people lose their jobs because of this. It's the terror of knowing What this world is about Watching some good friends Screaming let me out! Pray tomorrow takes me higher Pressure on people People on streets Again this is looking at how the world treats them and how some of these people want so badly to not be gay. But that isn't possible so they pray that tomorrow they will be accepted for who they are. Turned away from it all Like a blind man Sat on a fence but it don't work Keep coming up with love But it's so slashed and torn Why why why? This stanza explains how he tried to just turn away from his problems but it didn't work. And once he finds love with another its tainted by society. Cause love's such an old fashioned word And love dares you to care For the people on the edge of the night And love dares you to change our way Of caring about ourselves This is our last dance This is possibly the strongest stanza. Saying that the word 'love' is 'old-fasioned' or that it does not include gay relationships. Its also saying that being gay opens your mind and heart to be a more caring person. A perfect way to end a perfect song. "what this world is about" | Reviewer: TIBS | 10/3/07 That would be the 'meaning' of the song if I were to analyze it, I suppose - people 'coping', other people and yourself.. "life's a struggle" - whoever said that pretty much defines it. Going deeper I think it may well be about judging others - it could just as easily be yourself in their situation (i.e. "on the streets"). Love the song though even if I had no idea what it was about the first time I heard it as a nipper cos the song itself is sheer class with or without its meanings =) Song | Reviewer: Notimportant | 9/15/07 You know, it comes down to one thing. It means alot to everyone. It means either the struggle of living daily lives, or it means people who survive things that they should've not, or it simplely means things you do from your day to day life. Basicly, what it comes down to is the fact it means ' under pressure ' . People live daily and are under pressure more then anyone is willing to admit or more then you even think you know. You see celeberties out there, they are under pressure even though you may not think so. Fame is a pressure, it means living up to what people expect you to do. Its a great song and everytime I hear it I think of people who are under pressure every day to do something they either shouldn't be doing , or should be doing.
